A Lurker Lounge Contest
To see, see the swarthy sky
and marvel at its big blood ochre depths...
..so tell me, Duriel do you wonder why
the Annelida ignore our grunts?
And, do their foobly stares
make you feel a pithy fly?
I can tell you, they are worried by
your turgid frouggery growth
that looks like a spongy purple mold.
What's more, it knows your
uvulated premasticated
bial smells of a fetid infected sore.
Everything under the big swarthy sky
asks why, why do you even bother?
Only you have the charms of that chitin shell
that see's you to and back from hell.

An exercise in revolting poetry, aimed at inducing the maximum amount of pain.

Have mercy, English is not my first language and maybe I overdid the whole "unreadable instructions" thing. But if any of you ever came across one of those things in RL, you'll understand (I hope ;) )

Hello, my name is Geoff Fraizer, and this is my guide to playing a whirlwind-casting pike-wielding Barbarian in the Blizzard game "Diablo 2"; if this does not suit you, try reading any of my other highly challenging guides: The iron maiden-casting blood-golem commanding Necromancer and the Frozen orb-casting, Frozen orb-casting, Frozen orb-casting sorceress (new in this version: you and your frozen orb.)

Looks like you still have not forgiven Blizzard for the Whirly Barb. :)

That could go either way, considering it was the hated uberbuild for so long, and then nerfed into oblivion, and apparently nerfed again with 1.10... :P

It's just an old-tyme lurker jab at 'the man'. /grin

No, not TheMan... not that old-tyme.

Battle Orders
by F.R. Enzier

Imagine, if you will, the casual menace of a charge of crashing ungulate quadrupeds, baring the screaming earth of the savannah to the mocking eyes of the sun, only quintessentially more dangerous, adding life, stamina and magical essence, with a mighty roar, challenging heaven and hell itself; that in essence, captured, pure and screaming, like a caged tiger, is the stamp of authority a Barbarian leaves on the land he straddles, like a colossus, burnished and golden, mocking giants, whenever he utters those immortal words, “Uh, oops!”

Edit: Since I stuffed up the title after using the "preview" button...

...three!

We have a three way tie. These were our favorite entries.

The Test of a True Amazon by G. Gulling Massis
No matter how much Aella steeled herself, forever locked in conflict for those that claimed her presence in the war-party was based on her looks and not her battle prowess, she couldn't find the strength within herself to undergo the mythical Amazonian practice of righteous self-mastectomy in order to properly draw a bow; not so much because of the social or fashion challenges that it would provide, but more so because of the lifelong compensatory need to hold herself listing twenty degrees to starboard in order not to topple over while standing.

The Glorious Adventures of Corian_Countertop, part Deux
Corian_Countertop trudged grimly through the thin muck and discarded carapaces littering the twisting tunnels of the aptly-if-unimaginatively-named Maggot Lair, stalking The Big Honkin' Immobile Maggot of legend, when suddenly the thought occurred to him that if goddamned (literally!) insects could traverse this thing on a daily basis, why was Raoul, his otherwise trusty merc and boon companion, hung up in a corner halfway across the level?

Uniforms, High Kicks and a 401K by Polly Ester Chafes
The situation of personal investment had become untenable as, taking another battle stance in preparation against the Fallen now milling in closer and closer as if sensing her distraction from the fact that the last round of finishing kicks had indeed caused her uniform bottoms to "go ninja" in-between her glutes, Desdemona began to realize that if she truly intended to successfully retire from her career as an assassin; she would have to find a way for her assets to stop bunching in the end.

Nico and Proto: To collect your prizes, PM or e-mail your title of choice. Doesn't have to be immediately. Also, keep in mind we're not here to perform "title maintenence," so whatever you decide will likely stick with you.

I'd just like to tack on to Lemming's announcement here; it was BRUTALLY tough picking these winners. Each moderator picked their 5 favorites, and then the entries with the most votes between all of us won.

I myself picked 10 entries that made me laugh uproariously, and I had a very hard time whittling them down to just five picks. These entries were fabulous all around; I'd say that as a contest concept, Lemming deserves a round of applause (yes, this contest was his idea). Hopefully we can do more such contests in the future, and spread some more forum titles around from time to time to the winners.

So thanks go to all the applicants for making a very hilarious thread and a fun read all around!
