The thing is, I spent like 15 minutes writing that "limerick", I read though that and realized that "Most of this **** doesn´t even rhyme" would be an awesome way to end it, I wrote the last verse and realized that messing with the previous verses would screw with the last verse. Honest. It was supposed to be bad. I have gotten honorable mentions from contests where I was supposed to write a serious poem.

But geez Roth, your tempo screwed all the parts that could have been a little better. Even I laughed at how stupid "Qualified to write and win that hat" sounded.

I tried once (off air) to read that with some sort of temp/rhythm and just said screw it... the worse it sounded, the better it was. :lol:

Nice...honorable mention =) My first SG podcast mention. Glad it came on the Blu-show...love the work you guys do!

(still haven't listened to the show...hope you don't make fun of me =P)

Looks like you're comin for me eh Pacman? =)

Great show guys, sounding more fluid and natural by the week.

You're finding out about UK news before I am, and I am constantly reading the news pages and browsing the gaming websites to keep up to date... :shocked: Very funny/odd find... :thumbsup:

1 Millions Copies stolen twice? Some people must really love Unchartered... :lol:

Heh, I think my title should be podcast ghost since even if you don't give me a shout-out, I still manage to sneak in. And man, to nuke me off friends list before I even got on, that is cold. Oh well, I hope the hats turn out sweet

BTW, the mention about the LBP custom levels sounded unbelievable sooooo....I went on youtube to confirm and wow, there are some awesome videos of stuff. I found several showing different cannons, some cool uses of ice for an underwater look, and even a wipeout HD level which you need to see--> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6kHi91_aOk

I kinda counted 3 for all the mentions in this last one. If you go by episodes, it's only 6, but hey, even Roth said I had around 600, so I really should go by him, hehe

Nice show, I loved the limericks and I thought that Ventilaator should have won. Cause it was the perfect limerick ever written during mankind's time.

When Roth went into the whole " this guy has been mentioned on the show to many times " speech, I was like OH CRAP, I actually did a good limerick lol =P. Creative writing was my strength in school, not poetry lol =).

Honestly, who wouldn't have guessed...your "Creative Writing" is my favourite moment from the Blue show.

To bad I didn't keep up with it. I end up majoring in Computer Science in the long run. Which I never finished =). I do have a few awards from entry contest. Mostly from my HS days. Writing is still a passion to me as I do some short stories from time to time. I just don't plan on making a career out of it. There is another letter that I wrote floating in roths queue. When he plans to get to it is the question =P.

Aww, I was disappointed I didn't win. You check the sarcasticgamerplaystationpodcast email address, right?

Question - Why does latin legacy sign off of every post when it obvious signifies who posted it in bold letters to the left of each post?

LatinLegacy

I've been signing off my messages since the day forums were just called boards lol. That being in the early to mid 90's. This was before boards had templates, image support for sigs or avatars, the ability to link pages, etc. Boards were just pages jammed with text with black bar borders serving as a box to type in. Simple text with no way to bold, Change font colors, underline, etc. Some forms of Usenet still use this structure of there .bin listings & topic discussions.

I'd like to see them stop EA, I really would. :roll:

Wow, I think my limerick must be the most unpopular winning entry to anything ever! The complete non-reaction from Pacman and Frawlz made me laugh and then Rothbart was too embaressed to mention my name!

I finally listened to the whole podcast and realized I got 2 shout outs....one for my limerick and another for my itunes review (volleyop13)....suuuuhhhhwweeeeet!

We really did like it though. We were just being...well...us I guess. Credit were credit is due though. We really had a hard time picking a winner...you earned it.

They couldn't have mentioned every person who sent in a good limerick.
How 'bout the one's that didn't win are read at the end of the show for the next couple months?

He won. They can mention the authors for 2 honorable mentions and the limerick that isn't a limerick, but they can't give a shoutout to the winner?
