A new HMW holiday

Postby High Command » Fri Jan 25, 2019 2:52 pm

Motto: "The Original Disgruntled Brit"
Weapon: Shoulder Mounted Rocket Launcher
The 25th of January is celebrated in the country of Scotland commemorating their national poet, Robert Burns, with a feast involving bagpipes and haggis.

As today is also the start of a new C4C round I thought it would be fun to nominate today as an offical HMW holiday too where we can join together in comradeship, remember the good old times and enjoy the game we all tolerate love.

To kick this off I've reworked the traditional poem Address to a Haggis, to help us get into the spirit of the first annual

HMW Burns Night



A toast tae ye on night o' Burns
Great chieften o' Decepticons
To missions fought and missions won
To new tourney round
Wi' sword, wi' null-ray an' shotgun
Head tae battleground.

Whil' away the cold winter night
Sendin' transfomers out tae fight
Strafe, ram, repair an' deadly bite
But ne'er use avoid
Then tae the forum tae talk shite
Burn will be o'erjoyed.

A toast as well tae opposition
Without ye, there be nay mission
Nae carnage, nae demolition
This is just our way
So let this be new tradition
Burn's night holiday


So on this note, let's raise a glass to our friendly neighborhood admin, who's seen programmers come and go but has never lost faith in it. This is your special night Burn! ;)^

Before Burn does his usual going nuts but, the southern hemisphere is in the summer time so your line about winter needs a bit of tweaking.

:lol:

Burn doesn't 'go nuts'.
He's always nuts.

And it's based on Scotland, they don't get a summer up there as they're all poor and can't afford their sunshine tax.

Aussies should celebrate every day as 'Australian Survival Day' as you lot are playing at nature on hard mode.

Fine, here is a HMWified version of an iconic piece of Australian poetry.

Weapons,
Everybody needs good weapons
Just a quick deploy each morning
Helps to make a better day
Weapons,
Need to get that next upgrade
Next one is only a few XP away

Alt modes,
Everybody needs good alt modes
With a little understanding
You can find the perfect build
Alt modes,
Usually core, rare or common
Chuck 'em on the barbie they're all good grilled.
