Non-Competing Entries

Match None (Non-competing) Flicangel Kargach

Clever and cunning pirate
Lima is one of his thrones
Ever helpful to his people
A true pirate to his bones
Very kind and caring
Enemies he wont condone
Really great guy is Cleaver .... from me you wont hear a moan

Kaykordeath, acting governor of Gaea Island (Midnight Ocean)
Keeps the Nightmare real
Angel's bad dream? Good for us
Yet bad for our foes

King and Governor
One great man for two great roles
Rules with iron fist

Demon flag uses sloops as a tool
Easy win for twelve flaggies who rule
And with that blockade done
Two is more fun than one
Heph's is hot, but green Gaea is cool |

Match None (Non-competing) Gotagota

Demeter
Dangerous chic
Elegant lady
Mesmerizing woman:
Entranced, am I
Trying, but phobic?
Either her dogma
Relents, or I fell.

Lower Bracket

Match 177 Greywizard Graceisme

Cleaver
Come and watch Cleaver,
Love her and then leave her.
Everyday he works to please,
At night he is a tease.
Vast his love for her be,
Everlasting for one as she.
Revealed she is the sea.

Subliminal
Sneaking stealthily into yer mind
Unaware of what he might find;
Bringing ye thoughts of pillage and booty,
Leaving ye empty of notions of duty.
Insiduous pirate this governor be-
Marauding through minds like a ship on the sea
Invading in places he ought not to see!
No one's as sneaky as this pirate is,
Around Olive Island, all booty is his!
Leave while ye can in what time there still is!

Match 178 Fiddler Elvishfairy

Peghead, governor of Shatterstone Island on Ice
Programmer extraordinaire
Ev'ry bug, he fixes with flair
Good friends with Cleaver, they go out to lunch
Hearts is his game, he plays it too much
Each night before dinner, he checks on the code
At dawn the next day, he'll ease server load
Dread Ringers his crew, and you'll find this poem true.

freeze, governor of harmattan island
Fealty to his flag he shows
Remnant of a flag once grand
Enemy to those who would him oppose
Enraged at the enemy who dont understand
Zealously he fights them back
Eventually, they will learn and won't attack

Match 179 Steelfeather Devilsword

SUBLIMINAL,
Leader of me flag, (Fear and Loathing)
Mayor of the great island of Olive,
on the fine sea of Viridian.

Sublime are his killing skills

Ultimate riches with his sailing thrills

BOOM! Goes his 8 shoot round

Living the pirates life with every jewel found

In every Nav. He bares his soul.

Makes a gunning standard with the barrel?s roll.

Insists to be a mate with all his flag

Now with his grapple the brawl is in the bag

All thrones will crumble at his feet

Leader of Fear and Loathing hope he never sees defeat

Match 180 Toesy Katryvna

Maharet
Majestic, she took to her boats
And found her flag an island fine;
Held court where sea routes intertwine.
Above, her fluttering flag denotes
Requiem's here, and here she stays.
Enemies she'll sink. She'll send dry bouquets
To those she spares their lives and throats.

Hades
Hell's most peaceful keeper;
After souls he must depart.
Dark's lamented reaper,
Ever watchful of his art.
Sakejima - his home you'll find.|

Match 181 Canny206 Darkaardvark

Cleaver
Cleaver the governer, was brave and daring like his name
Leads his people into victory with his shining cleaver
Even if a million came with bloody sword in vein
All is not lost, for he would protect us with his cleaver
Even if he is in danger himself with poisonous dangerous rain
Roar and shout he would help, for he's our governer, Cleaver

Nemo, governor of Dragon's Nest. Viridian.
Never can get a chance to talk to him
Everyone gets to him first
Maybe someday he'll chat with me on a whim
Oh, but he won't, and that's the worst

Match 182 Edwardteach6 Scoogums

Scupperer
Scourge of the seven seas,
Constantly spreading disease.
Under his rule we serve,
Perpetualy on everyones nerves.
Prying from unwilling hands,
Everyone elses islands.
Roaring excitement and
Ephemeral Indictments
Reciprocate all of his plans.

Match 183 kmf Dhasch

He came from the Underworld, swift and sure
Attending the call of Cleaver
Demanding peace, 'Ye shall blockade no more!'
Exclaimed this silent Grim Reaper
So to Jorvik came the Peace Keeper.

Match 184 Bye ruby_spoon

Hades
He's shrouded in mystery (or maybe it's fog),
  and he once double-crossed captain Cleaver -
And yet he seems jolly (and owns a cute dog),
  so it's hard to predict what he'll do.
Death's Banner's his flag (well, just him and two mates),
  and unlike other monarchs he's dumb -
Ever silent, his movements (seen through armour plates) are sharp,
  and abrupt; staccato.
So what is his secret, and how can we know it? Look closely -
  you'll see it's revealed by this poet!

Note: The poet did the lines correctly, I've just broken them here for
formatting/space reasons.

Match 185 Gloraelin DaneT

Prometheus, Governor of Epsilon Island, Midnight.
Proud governor of Epsilon, ruler of a crowd
Regal in bearing, carrier of fire
Oceanmaster, a position of which he's quite proud
Master at clearing the Bazaar of mire
Erector of housing - Estates, even - the biggest!
Thread's he's lockered stay there, to some dismay
He has no problem with telling people they're a pest
Even changes thread subjects, with a 'Hey!'
Until he leaves ruling to another one of us
Send up a shout for the governor Prometheus!

Match 186 Kretak Barrister

Zife is the governor of Namath in Midnight
Zippy inn-keeping buccaneer
?Is hospitality is quite lame
For he?s known to toss on their rear
Everyone who boots him from their game

Lorry is governor of Nu Island on Midnight.
Life is quite a thrill.
Or perhaps a deadly drill.
Rhyming isn't easy.
Rhythm makes me queasy.
Yes, I have no skill.

Match 187 Wmcduff SingularCRW

Sanilla's Attack On Prolix Purlieu
SPar of her jib did lead the way,
AUthority from p'wer.
N'Rwester at her back today,
ILlumed by sun's noon hour.
LIaisions sent but proved for naught,
LEagues covered, now attack.
AUdacious, though might be the thought
...there was no turning back.

Curule - Governor of Turtle Island on Midnight
Captain rank of navy fleet
Ultimate sailior that can't be beat
Royal prince of Jester's Court
Ultimate battler of sort
Loyal islanders at feet
Entertained by his island turt

Match 188 Vicrattus Ew2009
Match 189 Irelay Shazwilky

Looking after the island of Beta,
Our governor known as LK;
Regularly takes us out pillaging,
Defeating anything sailing our way.
Kills Krakens, sends them to the deep,
After taking their blood to sell.
Loves to emerge from a battle,
Victorious! Honourable as well.
A generally all round good person...a gem, a diamond, a peach.
Noted for one particular saying..."Does anyone need the team speech?".

Match 190 AtteSmythe Lulunz

Sexilord is governor of Cnossos, on the Midnight Ocean.
Slinger of words.
Encourage?
Xtreme mix,
I think, of sexi
Leadership and downfall.
Open up to the cowboys, bucko!
Romanian or
Descended.

Amphitrite
All hail the Queen of waves and tide:
Mistress of seals and octopi,
Poseidon took thee for his bride,
Halosydne, our sea-born queen.
In seaweed green ye rule Descartes,
Thy island home 'neath azure sky.
Residing in the ocean's heart,
Illustrious in rags of green,
Though wide the sea, we hear thee sigh,
Encircling still the deep marine.

Match 191 PrJdMgr Indeed

Sanders of Endurance
Surely he's not pollophobiC
And he doesn't treat his fowl rougH-
Nor is he timid as am I:
Demonstrably, a strong bloC
Endures with heavenly lucK.
Refuses sheep running freE:
"S'Islands fer only chickeN!"

Match 192 B_licker BehindCurtai

May you never have to battle with the governor of Xi.
In war, she leads a fearsome force upon the Midnight sea.
Some say she is the devil's wife, she's clad in only black.
Even the ghostly black ship runs away when she attacks.
Run fast when she approaches, if you stay, you'll surely die.
You'd have to be a fool to fight the governor of Xi.

Scupperer

Undisputedly ugly
Potentially paranoid
