Some people say they're leaving
but keep posting just the same
Some people use the forum
As place to cuss and flame
Some are over zealous
And they end up posting spam
A few just push things much too far
Until they get a ban
Some say that they're conspired against
But never post the proof
Some post a lot of nonsense
But will swear it's all the truth
Some spend their time in 'Site Ideas'
Reshaping Red Hot Pawn
Some just live for puzzles
And don't think that math's a yawn
Some hang around in 'Only Chess'
Some understand what's there
Some people just don't get it
And just play without a care
Some offer draws when losing
Some will never click 'Resign'
Some time out folk who've gone away
And some think that that's just fine
Some try in vain to form a clan
Some try to join the lot
Some rave about ex-members
To make sure they're not forgot
Some say 'the cheque is in the post'
When asked why they've no star
Some give up jobs to be here more
And even sell their car!
It takes all sorts and they're all here
The Pawn Stars and the rest
And all, not some, must now agree
This Chess site is the best!

Yeah, yeah, whatever Dylan. How many times are you gonna use that one?

BTW, I now see why his name is rhyme-ster (funny story, I used to pronounce his screen name rhy-mester, which didn't make a lot of sense, until I asked him where he got his screen name in one of our games)

I swear to god, the postie told me he would make the trip to England and deliver it personally. Of course you know Australia post, very unreliable. If it doesn't turn up you can hardly blame me.


Incidentally, it was after reading one of Rhymesters defiant poems in the MAP wars that I decided this site might be worth giving a go. When Russ and Chris actually see one of my hard earned Australian pennies (after the postal service get their act together) I suggest Rhymester (and Red Hot Ted) get a beach front property, or a really fast red car, or perhaps a personal jet. Surprise them.

Red Hot Ted in his own personal jet? No one would be safe! 😉

Well done Andrew.

I also pronounced your name Rhy-mester until one day it dawned on me.

Must be a South African problem hey Crowley?

Yes I also struggle with the pronunciation of your name... the best I can think of is Bee-Rain... I thought at first it might be 'brain' but then it dawned on me... 😉 😀
