View Full Version : Was I a bad boy this year?

So on the night before Christmas Eve
A bowl of candy in his lap
A cup of coffee by his sleeve
Evrae decided to MF a little before his nightly nap.
While slapping Andy around
As well as her devilkin friends
He thought he heard a little sound
And quickly hit Alt to view what heaven sends.
But 'twas not an item that dropped
Nay, the screen "SoJ sold to merchants" did say
Maybe this server will pop,
And DClone will come out and play!
The counter went leaps and bounds
Up one, up three, up thirteen!
Evrae remained silent and listened for sounds
Of the Lord of Terror just waiting to be seen.
After an hour of patient wait
The ground shook and mightily tumbled
Boy, in this night it was very late
But Evrae did not care, DClone's ready to rumble!
As he battled with the oversized weevil,
His heart raced faster and faster,
As death gripped the Prime Evil,
Evrae was met with great disaster.
Lo and behold, as the golden charm fell,
The game fell silent and nothing stirred,
A classic sign that the server just went to hell,
And it was a waste of time, as you can infer.
Evrae was fuming mad and looked quite sickly!
How dare the servers fail him now,
And it didn't even have the decency to drop the game quickly,
Why oh why did it have to be now?
So close to another Anni,
but alas it was not meant to be,
A dead mercenary was the only sign of Evrae's victory,
But he had no charm to prove his conquering of DC.
So with that note he went to bed,
Wondering what he did to anger the gods of the great abyss,
Why couldn't this happen to someone else instead,
Because then the Duckman wouldn't be uber pissed!

That poem was hard to read. Couldn't you just have said "Man, the server dropped after I killed DClone and I didn't get my Anni"? Wouldn't that have been easier!?

...:grrrr:
Stupid "Christmas Spirit". Everyone is talking in song now.

P.S.: That "Why couldn't it just drop quickly?" thing...I know the feeling. I wish that the stupid server would just die when it stops working. Sitting there for ten minutes while the server figures out that it's gone and buried is...annoying.

P.P.S.: This (http://forums.diabloii.net/showthread.php?t=521833) thread laughs at you. :point:

A poet duck!

Interesting that it is the first time i see you writing rhymes and the first time i see you really pissed - though i admit i didn't read all of your 25k posts.

Sorry for the loss anyways - Bnet is just plain bad at the moment.


P.P.S.: This thread laughs at you.

oh man that is so mean :o

Not bad, although I hate the ABAB pattern (does that have a fancy name?).

You're still fond of the good old "AABB" pattern?
"ABAB" is okish, the stuff I really I hate is "ABBA" or "ABACA" etc...

They might all have terms, but for outsiders, these are clear enough imo.

Don't perm
Don't glitch
Don't BO on my switch
Got a mane
Of arctic blast
Don't want to play through fast
And I wanna know if I'm leveling for anything
And I've got a Sigon's that I'll wear until the end

I'm a leg-
Legit player
I'm a leg-
Legit player

Don't rush
Don't trade
Don't use stuff I've eBayed
I cube
My flaweds
And I use a Venom Ward
And I wanna know if I'm leveling for anything
And I've got a Sigon's that I'll wear until the end

I'm a leg-
Legit player
I'm a leg-
Legit player

Don't beg
Don't dupe
Don't eth bug in my cube
Got a Dol
And an Ort
Highest runes I ever caught
And I wanna know if I'm leveling for anything
And I've got a Sigon's that I'll wear until the end

I'm a leg-
Legit player
I'm a leg-

P.P.S.: This thread laughs at you. Trying to anger me eh? Those that know me know I'm not quick to anger. :azn:
Although I'll keep this sharpened candy cane by my side just in case. Oh, and sleep with one eye open, not so you can keep watch better, but so you can save me the trouble of pulling back your eyelid later to poke your eye with my sharpened candy cane. :evil:

Sorry for the loss anyways - Bnet is just plain bad at the moment.Seems like it's getting worse by the day. It wouldn't be so bad if the game dropped while the counter was still going up. But making you wait all that time, only to drop as soon as the Anni hits the ground? That's just insulting.

I'd say...yes Jus go read some of your post this year and you'll understand.That would require too much time. :tongue:

Sad to say, lag and server drops are increasing.. A week ago my brother and I were playing.. got the soj's sold message.. waited.. and Dclone spawned.. and the server dropped immediatly, never even got to kill him.

Sorry, about your loss, and I feel your frustration.

I just realized, Rhubarb is an Australian band so no-one on here is going to recognise "Exerciser". Damn.
