I knew General Discussion, his aide was Major Distaster and he had a 5 year old son Minor Wound, who got Corporal Punishment sometimes.

No, it just scans badly.

"The forums are th'Immortal Game's
Communal core
A barn-dance with knives
A festering sore
In a weeping continuum."

Here is a limerick from me.

There once was a man from pitlockerie
who made love to his wife on a rockery
she said "look you've come"
"all over my bum"
This is'nt a shag
its a mockery.

The forums are the core of the 'The Immortal Game' community
