nockgeneer Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hmm.. had to post this one too: In a dark oppressive place Two Guys were slaving, Trying to appease the fans they'd rustled up. Would they bow to the pressure? And get their fifth instalment done? We wait patiently, with death sequence in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nockgeneer Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 0 seconds on the clock. Promises not yet fulfilled. Could there be some writer's block? Or maybe Roger had them killed. After all, it was their turn. penguinfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo Posted July 14, 2012 Report Share Posted July 14, 2012 An acrostic view of SpaceVenture: Scott Murphy and Mark Crowe produced one of the greatest game series of all time. The Two Guys from Andromeda wanted to create a funny science fiction game that everyone could enjoy. They Ventured forth and brought all of us gamers hours of enjoyment with the tales of Roger Wilco who was on a neverending quest for truth, justice and clean floors. The original series "Space Quest" unfortunately came to an end when Sierra decided reorganization was the way to go, and it ultimately put an end to the working relationship of the Two Guys. However, there is a happy ending. The Two Guys reunited after years of estrangement to put together a plan to create a new game series based on a plumber in space called... hmmmm... What was that title again? penguinfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonsterdmonster Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 The Janitor Gods extend their grace To their brothers in arms Those plungers in space And as they tighten and plunge, and remove the waste From the Starships and Stations In the farthest reaches of space We herald and welcome a brand new face A plunger, a plumber, A star-flung Ace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tawmis Posted July 18, 2012 Report Share Posted July 18, 2012 Sludge Vohaul laid low Thanks to Scott Murphy and Mark Crowe. A return to their fame They return with a brand new game. I watch around the clock Until I can play Astro Cock. Waiting for the day I can play Ace Hardway. Yesterday is not soon enough Because this friggin' waiting is tough.

nockgeneer Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer! Scott downs one, but he's only begun, 98 bottles of beer on the wall! ... 1 bottle of beer on the wall, 1 bottle of beer, Scott downs it, then throws a big fit, There're no more bottles of beer on the wall...

penguinfan Posted July 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2012 Nockgeneer gets editing credits on this one... he must be one of those geeks who excelled in English class in addition to math A SpaceVenture Sonnet Who calls the hotline, panic level high? a flooded client, seeking plumber Ace. The mighty Ace then rockets through the sky while robot Rooter guards their secret base. The water level threatens ever more, the lobby will be underwater soon! Our hero Ace pounds firmly on the door and whistles cheerful notes not quite in tune. The door bursts open, water pouring out! Concierge and doorman, elegant but wet describe disaster, how it came about but Ace calls halt -- no time for stories yet. An expert observation shows the source: an island dome descent with too much force! [1] My editor was skeptical that the line with 'concierge' had the proper meter, but that turned out to be the ambiguity of alternative pronunciations of the word. For best effect, use the less anglicized version when reading this poem, "kawn-syerzh" http://dictionary.re...rowse/concierge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nockgeneer Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 My attempt at a SpaceVenture sonnet — Shakespear style: Thine mind might dream of flight and fancy's fronds Whilst impotent thee face reality. A welcome sight now from two without bonds: The fruitage of their minds proclivity. An impasse faced these two with reddened locks; With writ their snorts were silenced, slightingly. With fight and courage mustered up, those blocks Were blasted from the rooftops, smilingly. True patrons pledging payment in advance Would stem all tides of thought t'wards loss contrite. A stage of grand import and tasked finance, shall from reality provide respite. A man named Ace with Rooter by his side Shalt ne'er us fail lest we his skills deride. penguinfan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguinfan Posted July 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2012 Here is an odd one, and I blame Nockgeneer for it; he literally asked for it. Actually it's probably 3 separate little poems, since they really have nothing in common except being rhyming 1337-speak. B01D 7a11 7a1e 7e11 Dead 1095 fe17 7a11 C01d c01d 9a1e fe11 Dead 1eaf fade fa11 Doe5 1ead f0a1 1a57 Sa9e ca75 90ad d095 90a7 9e7s 1057 fa57 70ad b0a5 5109 b095 900d deed bea7 c057 1e57 be57 90a1 1057 ** 'Does' meaning Deer, as opposed to the verb form *** No I don't know what the f0a1 was doing with the Does, foster mothers? Or maybe mama horse was also towards the back, just not mentioned. **** No it has nothing to do with SpaceVenture, other than coming from the SpaceVenture comment thread; luckily Nockgeneer didn't make that part of the challenge. I will be in awe of anybody who manages to do a hex poem that is actually on-topic. Troels Pleimert 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riggo Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Here is an acrostic/limerick/poem for the heroes working to hit 30k comments on the KS project: There once was a group of fans who had produced all of the comments in the lands. regardless of hunger or fatigue they came to the project in need and yielded comments indeed. Thanks to these few heroes, the comments will not be zeroes. our commenting friends will not let us down. They will yack until some of us frown. They are the ones that are never going to stop. Until the SV backers are deemed to be at the top! Ceeding to no-one these overachievers will prevail. many will hear of their tale. mere mortals will express their wonder at how these nerds could plunder the record of comments and set it asunder!
