First, I will post the overall rules, and then I will post the specifics about this week.
Original rules, as stated by Ubertuna:
It must fit the week's theme. It must be submitted by the deadline. It cannot have inappropriate language in it. It cannot be stolen (if you plagiarize, we will find you).
Also:
The poem must be created for this contest A user cannot win two weeks in a row (though everyone is welcome to submit every week!) Only one submission per user will be accepted
As we all know, the winner will recieve a merit, and their poem will be featured on the _Poetry_ page.
OK, on to this week's topic...Again, we are having a style instead of a theme. Also, this week we are having TWO WEEKS to do it, instead of the usual one. Why? Because this will be an EPIC poem. Or, rather, a parody of an epic poem. Generally, epic poetry is very long, and tells the serious story of a heroic figure. Well, this week, the epic figure is YOU! Write a long poem (I'll leave the definition of 'long' up to you, but give it a good go) about the heroic story of you! It can be silly, serious, whatever... just have fun with it. You have two weeks, so have a great time!
Geez Parsat and Gab, thanks for making this judging tougher than emerald weapon times 5 >_>
Hahahahahaha!! Still hung up on Ff7 uh?...I personnaly have more trouble with ruby, because I'm too lazy to gather 99 Dazers... In any case, I know know what you mean, I've got a taste of judging for myself ^^. Good luck Alt!
Gab, you could just W-summon and mime Hades and KOTR for the entire time, starting off with only one person alive so you get the tentacles at the beginning instead of losing two party members >_>
Also, I'm still on disk 1, near the end. just finished Temple of the Ancients.
Well, I know it's not the thread for this, but since it seems Alt always wound up talking about good ol'Ff7, let's talk about good ol'Ff7...Until judging that is.

Yeah, I'm this kind of harcore gamer who prefers to complicate things up a little bit when it's too easy. I don't like plaing like this, it's like playing pokemon and owning the elites with dragonite, salamence, mewtwo and so on...it's boring...

So, what's your team?
Viola solo? check.
Just gave me an urge to go listen to my tribute to coldplay album by the vitamin string quartet.
Are we allowed to submit several? If not, I just submit the first one.
My strings are tuned, Ready to play, My strings, marooned, And there to stay. My strings, on fire, And then decay, Can't find no buyer, I'm here to stay.
Ain't got no money, To spend on my strings, They say my effort's funny, But I'm no jester of kings. I try to hide them away, Fly away on my wings, But still, here I stay, With these darned awful strings.
Oh look, a person! Coming towards me now, Maybe they can help loosen My strings and their sound. Oh, Dosh garnit, they have passed, No more people around, This note'll be my last.
No, the deadline is tomorrow or Firday. I usually do the judging on the Saturday after the deadline, which is Friday.
And 201, strings is the theme because it's supposed to make people think. I'd say we had good enough with results, because Fallen and Parsat submitted two of the best poems I've ever seen in this contest.
