An ode to Grepolis

Forum users rejoice! For the time to vote for Chi's Poet Champion has arrived! It is likely that most of you are unaware that this competition was running on Chi Forums so here is the task they were set

The Task

To ceate a small simple poem using the following guidelines

It must be related to grepolis in some way
It must use an Acrostic poetic structure using the word 'Grepolis'
It must not be insulting in any way
It can be Funny
It can be about a moderator/senior/Manager (if your brave enough)
It can be about an alliance as long as its nice
It can be about a player as long as its nice

The Competition ran from 24th/07 until 29th/07 and we have selected our personal favourites for you to vote for :). All submissions have been Anonymous so it is as fair as it can be for you to pick a favourite based on quality rather than users popularity!

Simply vote for the number which corresponds to your favourite poem

Of Two Minds


Game of thrones and wars,
Reaping destruction on shores.
Extravigant wonders fill the cores,
Players all fighting so lock your doors.
Oceans to part the weak and the strong
Looks like everythings gone pete tong!
Is this the end of my wonderfull city?
Say it aint so! Oh what a pity.....​

Grepolis is a fine place to be,
Relaxing worlds, from alpha to chi.
Every day
People play.
Outstanding alliances unite,
Lots are falling during the night.
It's an amasing game,
Surely it deserves fame!!!!!!

Grepolis is amazing and really great.
Really, it's something you should appreciate.
Eating while gaming is what it's all about.
Please you know it's true, there's zero doubt.
Of course accidents could happen so be very careful,
Like spilling a drink, so better be prayerful!
I really like this game, I think I'm addicted,
Someone please save me before I get evicted!

5

Grecian tragedies, their stories and tales,
Relived by players seeking thrills,
Each one vying for islandic dominion,
Praying to Deities, they make supplication.
Over and over, honour and deceit
Lies and truths, victory and defeat
In glorious war will alliances by sundered, for a
Single alliance will complete the wonder.



I would like to say a personal thank you to all who have submitted a poem and brought the moderators involved a lot of laughs. We appreciate all input to the forums and we hope you have enjoyed taking part!

The Winner will receive 150 gold and one of a kind Forum Title

poem 1 is breaking the forum rules!!!!!

go here is you don't trust me

we trust you and you are correct, the forum rules indeed state no animated images, however I stipulated that for this competition it would be acceptable within a spoiler

as all submissions should have anyway

Animated images are still against the rules unless stated otherwise (comps for example)

i voted for #1 not because the moving pics were awsofantasterific (for those that dont know, my guess all of u lol, that is awesome fantastic and terrific together mashed potatoes style :D ) but for the words the writer used :D

a close second (imo) would have to be #2 lol (oh the irony) but maybe the next one shouldnt allow flashy things of any kind . . . we have "flashy things" disorder . . . EXHIBIT A


I liked one cuz the the pictures move


case closed :D

I thought #2 was kind of cheezy with "Game of thrones" and "everything gone pete tong," and not the good kind of Grepolis cheezy.

#5 was pretty close to #1, but it looks like the writer of five tried and failed at rhyming.

But, yea, one was pretty cool. Can we know who wroted it?
