This one is dedicated to all the gamer ladies hanging out here.

EN Girl (sung to the tune of "Uptown Girl" by Billy Joel)

EN girl, always hanging out on EN World
I bet she’d really dig a gamer guy
Especially one with a great big die
I think I’ll try for that EN girl
I’ll approach her here on EN World
Under the guise of my real cool screenname
And say “Hey baby, do you like to game?”
Oh man that’s lame

And since she knows
What she likes
In an RPG
That makes it ob-
Vious we’re
Meant to be-ee-ee

She won’t think I’m a geek
She’ll like my Elven-speak

She’s an EN girl, and I’ve seen her here on EN World
She getting tired of her lame sourcebooks
I’d woo her with that one from Monte Cook
‘Cause he’s no schnook

EN girl, I can’t afford to buy her books by Mearls
But someday when I’m writing for Dungeon
(And when I am no longer a virgin)
Her hand I’ll win

And when she’s posting
It’s reading so fi-i-ine
Soon she’ll be boasting
That now she is mi-i-ine

She won’t think I’m a geek
She’ll like my Elven-speak

EN girl
I’ll approach her here on EN World
Under the guise of my real cool screenname
And say “Hey baby, do you like to game?”
Oh man that’s lame

EN girl, she’s my EN girl
I’ve been put on ignore
By an EN girl, my EN girl
I’ve been put on ignore
By an EN girl, my EN girl
I’ve been put on ignore
By an EN girl, my EN girl

Sung to "A Few of My Favourite Things" from Sound of Music

Clever designers and smarter rules lawyers
A ban on religion and political comment
Rules help a plenty and game advice to
These are what EN World brings to you

There's Hypersmurf king of the RAW
Thanee with picture alluding to more
The Monkeys that code PCGen what a team
Our EN World is a place filled with theme

Then there's that squirrel, Nuttkin is its name
Piratecat has many fans of his game
The Colnel he posts in verbage so grand
When hashing the rules this board held my hand

When the rules bog, when I can't rule, when I need some aid
I ask this wonderful board and they help without being paid

Entry #2

You Can’t Always Post What You Want (apologies to the Rolling Stones)

I saw him today at the Rules forum
The thread was up on my screen
I knew he was gonna ignore decorum
And say something kind of mean

You can't always post what you want
You can't always post what you want
You can't always post what you want
But if you try sometimes, well you might find
The thread that you need

Oh yea-ay (hey-hey-hey, oooh)

I replied to the post on fourth edition
To heap on my share of abuse
Typin’, 'I’m gonna vent my frustration
For saying , I'm gonna make no excuse'
Send it to the board

(You can't always post what you want)
(You can't always post what you want)
(You can't always post what you want)
But if you try sometimes, well you just might find
The thread that you need
Ooh baby, yeah, ooh

I went down to the Story Hour spot
To get my gaming fiction fill
I was standin' in line with Piratecat
A-man, did he look pretty ill

He decided his story was now through
My favorite thread was no more
I spoke my piece to KidCthulhu
Yeah, and she said one word to me, and that was ‘ignore’
She said to me

(You can't always post what you want) well no!
(You can't always post what you want) tell ya baby
(You can't always post what you want) no
But if you try sometimes, you just might find, mmm!
Mmm! The thread that you need
Ooh yes! Woo!

(Instrumental & choir) Ooow-ooh!

The thread that you need
Yeah!
Ooow, babe!
Ooh, yeah

I saw her today at the Rules forum
Her avatar was a bleeding man
She was asking a question ‘bout electrum
Tried to answer but I’ve been banned
Say it!

(You can't always post what you want) yeah!
(You can't always post a-what you want) ooo-yeah, baby!
(You can't always post a-what you want)
But if you try sometime, you just might find
You just might find
The thread that you need

Woot! It was the only song I could think of that would let me cram lots of people in. And I didn't even use half the names I had written down.

Jack

I'm honored to have made the cut.

 

[Nightfall]

Too bad I got left off.

Since it's said that the gaming populace is slowly greying, I thought a bit of Beatles would be appropriate...

When I get older, losing my hair, not too long from now,
Will I still be making all my saving throws?
Or will dragons fill me with woes?
If I played then would I still level up or would I just snore?
Will I still roll dice, will it still feel nice, when I’m sixty-four?

You could game some, too --- ahhh
And if you say the word, I’ll GM for you

I’d be a halfling of roguish ways and you could be a monk
Maybe our arthritis would be acting up
Still I’ll roll dice if you’ll prop me up
Killing some goblins, slaying some orcs, who could ask for more?
Will I still roll dice, will it still feel nice, when I’m sixty-four?

Every summer we could see releases at the GenCon booths
If it’s not too dear
We shall skrimp and save
Still we not quite so old
As Gary, Steve, and Dave

Send me an e-mail, post on the boards, stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Emotgifs will give you away
Give me a head start, some cold Diet Dew, dice for evermore
Will I still roll dice, will it still feel nice, when I’m sixty-four?

ENWORLD
Enworld
Sing us a song
Of a love that once belonged

Enworld
Tell me your tale
Was your game far too long?

Does it seem that I'm looking for Crothian
To post once more in a way I cannot ask.

I don't know which way the dice will fall
Or if it will roll to the left.

All the mini's are spinnin around me
Trying to tell me where to go.

Can I move right behind you?
And you can take my dice away.
Over my dead body so I say!

Don't know if this is an "in joke" or "mystery" anymore but I've not kept up with the thread(s) regarding the topic since I don't really care. Thought it would be funny however.

Thanee, Thanee, when will our doubts disappear?
Thanee, Thanee, your avatar so clear.
With no idea of your face and no inkling of your race
You can’t say we’re satisfied
But Thanee, Thanee, you can’t say we never tried
Thanee, you’re beautiful, but shouldn't you answer why?
Thanee, we still love you, why can't you answer our cry?
That avatar so close, will our dreams go up in smoke
Let me whisper on PM:
Thanee, Thanee, are you one with your avatar?
Oh, Thanee, don't you keep, your secrets don't you keep
We love that twinkle in your eyes
But Thanee, Thanee, ain’t it time you told the truth?
With no knowing in our hearts and no way to find you out
You can’t say we’re satisfied
But Thanee, we still love you, baby
Ev’rywhere I look I see your posts
There's no woman close to you
Well your avatar that is
But Thanee, Thanee, its just good to be here
Thanee, Thanee, they can’t say we never tried

(To the tune of the Beatle's Yellow Submarine)
"Piratecat's Regime"

On the board
Where we all post
There was a ca-a-at
Who sailed to sea.
And he brought
With him the rules
For a ga-a-ame
Called D&D
So we read
His Story Hour
'Til we fou-ou-ound
We'd reached the end
And still we waited
For updates
That the P-Kitty
Would surely send.

We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime

Shilsen and Jester
Have read them all
And Ao the Overkitty's
Read even more
And the game
Is still in play

(Instrumental, accompanied by the sound of dice)
We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime

As we type
And post with ease
Everyone of us
Has all we need
Mouse that clicks
And typing keys
In our Piratecat's
Benign regime

We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
We all live in the Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime
Piratecat's regime

Demiurge out.
