Well, you just summed up my entire emotional experience with the information with the new Thief so far. Nice work Yahtzee!

Edit: Derped spelling.

Wow. Just Wow. If I had to pick a winner... I'd call it a draw this time.

(yeah yeah, I know it's not a competition, but let's be honest... it is.)

2 spectacular poems as always!

Jim wins. No ifs ands or buts. Yahtzee's limerick was good, describing the tortured development of thief(4???). but jim's poem reminded me of this [http://lparchive.org/Animal-Crossing/Update%201/] and i have to give it to him.

Can you guys have guests on the series? It's getting kinda stale...

I mean, I still enjoy it but it's getting predictable.

Oh yes, Animal Crossing's insane logic.
Tom Nook isn't trust worthy.
A raccoon dealing in lies and deceit.
He is nothing but a loan shark.
For a crook is certainly he.

The upcoming Thief sequel/reboot/cash-in might just be the one game that breaks Yahtzee's spirit completely. Was feeling positive that Thief was coming back... until the details started leaking out and that's when my positivity went down faster than a Kardashian being promised a film career in exchange for sexual favors.

Great job, boys! Nice 5 O'clock shadow, Jim.

Ah not dealing with Nook's BS is a major reason I'm so looking forward to new leaf since the tables have turned, I'm the mayor and own the town this time. To Nook I say, "Who's the Boss NOW?!"

I'm going to have to disagree. "Small" and "fool" don't rhyme, and there were a couple others that were kind of a stretch but sounded similar because of the way he pronounced them. Some of the verses were a little long and clunky too. I realize Yahtzee's had a part that didn't rhyme either, but it was intentional, made a point, and was funny. It could also be that Jim's just didn't hold anything personal for me because I've never played Animal Crossing. It doesn't really sound like that much fun. I couldn't get into Harvest Moon either.

Okay, after Yahtzee's one I thought he'd "won" this one for sure, and then Jim matches it superbly.

Fantastic work this week, gents.

I think I preferred Yahtzee's better this week. Although, is it just me, or is the lip syncing a bit off for his?

Jim's poem, whether he realises it or not, is actually a witty commentary on the set-up of real life society.
