Multiple Lines Per Player: A Limericks Special Edition
help
Here's an experiment with the Limerick form. In this game (and this one only) it is permissible for players to contribute more than one line each to each limerick, just to see if we can increase the level of coherence in this much-loved form as practised in the Morniverse. Everything else is the same as normal... Take it away!
arrow_circle_up
interesting concept with 5 rhyming lines....
My fortune is yet to be made
Or else all my hopes are to fade
Neither rust nor to get laid
(Even taxes must be paid)
Yet I still live my life as a maid

5 rhyming lines is acceptable - however, lines 3 & 4 with 3 beats each is not.

[Iroulay] Make it easy, why don't you? :-)

Perhaps when our experts arrive
About time! That means it's past five?
"No longer" Will said,
"I fear that swan's dead."
"Could never be classed as alive"

[Chalky] Well done, never thought this attempt could be landed safely!
Just a reminder of where we started:

Trying to find its steady-state norm,
