Twas the night before Guild Wars when all across Twitter
the Tweeps were all wired, their hearts all a flitter.
The game was downloaded, the computers were prime,
In hopes that Guild Wars 2 would launch right on time.

The players weren’t sleeping. Who needed a bed?
With visions of Tyria dancing in their head.
Huntersinsight was snuggled with his plush little charr
His five year journey had brought him this far.

Slurms was plotting the name of his ranger lass,
trading in his famous mustache for a female norn’s ass.
Vejuz was surrounded with caffeine and some booze,
not sure which would keep him going, but he couldn’t afford to snooze!

Rer was all primed with pizza and Coke,
we all knew him skipping this game had been a big joke.
Rowanblaze’s journey had been full of zombies of late
to step foot into Tyria’s beautiful world he just could not wait.

Craythur was snug in his freshly cleaned abode
Waiting for the time to get the game to load.
Jazz and Moxie, and Paeroka too
Stocked up with goodies to get them through.

The wait was intolerable! The clock seemed not to budge!
A collective twitter wail was heard. “OMG! What the fudge!”
Their hearts couldn’t take it! They were going to explode!
Some were so drunk they had to worship the golden commode.

And then suddenly across the internet there arose such a clatter
as keyboards went wild, and all the snacks went a scatter.
Launch had arrived, logins were a blazing.
Shiny eyes expecting Guild Wars 2 to be simply amazing.
