Into our town the hangman came,
smelling of gold and blood and flame.
He paced our bricks with a different air,
and built his frame on the courthouse square.

The scaffold stood by the courthouse side,
only as wide as the door was wide
with a frame as tall, or a little more,
than the capping sill of the courthouse door.

And we wondered whenever we had the time,
Who the criminal? What the crime?
The hangman judged with the yellow twist
of knotted hemp in his busy fist.

And innocent though we were with dread,
we passed those eyes of buckshot lead.
Till one cried, "Hangman, who is he,
for whom you raised the gallows-tree?"

Then a twinkle grew in his buckshot eye
and he gave a riddle instead of reply.
"He who serves me best," said he
"Shall earn the rope on the gallows-tree."


And he stepped down and laid his hand
on a man who came from another land.
And we breathed again, for anothers grief
at the hangmans hand, was our relief.

And the gallows frame on the courthouse lawn
by tomorrow's sun would be struck and gone.
So we gave him way and no one spoke
out of respect for his hangmans cloak.

I love this poem for some reason. :3
So to honor it we're going to play a little game...
I have a list...this list contains the names of various SZ members.
Everyday I will call members from that list...as many as I choose. I might pick 1...or maybe 3...or even 7 if I please. Names will be called at random, those people will be hung on the gallows tree. >:3
The final survivor will win a prize.
What's the prize? You'll have to wait and see...hoping you don't hang from the gallows tree. 8D *tries to rhyme that line*
At anytime you may "move out" and you're name will be replaced by another. If you die or move out you will not be able to post in this topic.

The List:
1. Dracoslythe
2. GD
3. Super Sonic Boom
4. Trance Raver

The moon was bright as everyone huddled in the town square that night. 3 names had been decided to be sent to death that night. Everyone shook, saying their goodbyes as the hangman began to read the list of names.........Jeexx......Rockout...Jazz...as the called individuals were separated from the crowd they knew their fate was sealed...one by one the hangman put their heads in the nus.
"It's a trick! A dirty rotten...", Jazz didn't even finish his sentence before he was surrounded by the darkness of his own demise. The townsfolk wept over the loss of their friends and proceeded home for what they believed was the last of their sleepless nights. They didn't know how wrong they were...

(I'll get better. :3)

You should have named the topic differently or something...for mudkip's sakes I thought this topic was about playing the Hangman where you guess letters and stuff. XD
