Elmofongo: I fit this category perfectly because I have never played them nor have them and never traded here.
So ?... SO... ? IS THAT ALL ??

Soyeong: Does is owning DK and DK2 disqualify me?
I'd say no, as it would be too restrictive. Let's say this : People are in if they only own only one game or only one series from the list. Also, the remaining codes must be OFFERED (in a giveaway) and not traded.

There. This should be a clear enough, and fair enough, limit, I think.

Zaphoogin: Having not really played these in the past (although I did pick up a boxed copy of Theme Hospital recently), I don't know if I'd be able to form very good poems, even with some research into the games. But, props to you for putting this giveaway together!
I lied : the poems don't have to be good. Also, they can be about not having played the game, or about vague preconcieved ideas about their content. Like :


Making profit from the ill
Such a game for the cynic
But my Amiga never will
See anything so horrific
Not a moral decision
A marketing evolution
The rise of PC makes me sick


See, neither good, nor related to torect experience of the game.
Dungeon Keeper

Here it lies
an evil Lair.
Could you rule
the depths in there?

Theme Hospital

If you're hurt
rest in that room,
hope nobody makes makes it BOOM!

Syndicate

Come on here,
little lad,
I want you
for my mercs squad.

Populous

All the people praise to me,
when they need to bet the odds,
as the more praises I get
I have more power of gods.

Magic Carpet

You may think it's just a rug,
but in fact it makes me fly,
I've spent hours chasing dragons
riding it across the sky.


I'm HORRIBLE at that, but i hope it counts. Also, i have None of the games and i plan playing them :)
Not in... +1
Thanks and +1 for your generosity, Telika!

Also, a little promotion in the Giveaways' Directory:
http://www.gog.com/forum/general/how_does_one_make_a_gift_aka_gifting_on_gog_for_dummies/post651

I'll edit my entry if I've the time and energy to write the poems. Probably not, but who knows? :D

UPDATE: Done!

Dungeon Keeper

Dig, dig, my little minions,
we need gold and gemstones
if we want to defeat the heroes
You're tired, small ones?
Fear not, a gently slap will fix your lazyness.

Theme Hospital

Winter has come, there's no heating,
staff rebels and asks for more money,
a plague of rats, a sudden epidemic
and now Mr. VIP want to visit our wards?
Doesn't matter, we'll impress him anyway!

Syndicate

Weapons and implants,
humans and cyborgs,
kill your enemies for power and wealth.
It seems that the world hasn't changed,
although many years may have passed.

Populous

The powers of a god, miracles and curses,
are useless without loyal followers
willing to kill and die for their beliefs.

Magic Carpet

Sliding over valleys and mountains,
flying on a magic carpet
fighting monsters and opponents
with a myriad of spells.

Don't complain about my absolute lack of talent for poetry, Telika. After all, you asked for it, don't you? :D

the old games, the old school, my old PC, id remember my adolescence, thanks for this giveaway!
BUMP
Double BUMP
BUMP!
BUMP
FIST-BUMP? :P
Dungeon Keeper
Dungeon Keeper 2

Dungeon Keeper, you mother-bleeper,
I've fought you in so many games
But when the tables are turned, other mothers will burn
And it will be my laughing face that they blame

Theme Hospital

Come one and come all, and fill up the halls
Of the friendliest place that could be
A hospital fine, I've made it, it's mine
You're free to come stay (for a fee)

Syndicate

Between the four of us, we have so much metal
You'd hardly believe we're bipedal
Our mission in life
Is to cause world-wide strife
And for less we never will settle

Populous
Populous 2: Trials of the Olympian Gods
Populous: The Beginning

It's sometimes so lonely when you're the blessed One And Only
But me, I've got me some toys
I push them and pull them, you could even say "rule" them
It's how I get me my jollies and joys

Magic Carpet

The world has been knocked out of whack
By wizards hunting mana like crack
On my carpet I'll fly
And do battle 'til I
Have the world's biggest castle-held mana stack

I don't own any of these, nor have I ever played any of them. Dungeon Keeper and Syndicate have been on my radar for a while. And Populous has recently caught my eye.

I hope you enjoy my poems, and, yes, I am in for the bundle giveaway. Thanks for your generosity!

Cheers.
Haiku BUMP :P

Haikus are easy
But sometimes they don't make sense
Refrigerator
I've updated my original entry with the poems (well, my terrible attempt at them, anyway...). ;)

(I already own Populous & Populous: The Beginning, thanks to HereForTheBeer and azah_lemur, so if I win, I'll open a giveaway with them as prizes, per your request).

I think they are great, way much better than my sh*tty haikus. :D
