One Shots: Poetic
When it comes to MMOs, poetry may not immediately jump to mind -- unless, of course, you either really like poetry or are taking a poetry class. While we've gotten short stories to go with screenshots, this may well mark the first time we've gotten a poem to go along with one. That said, this particular poem isn't an original, but today's One Shots contributor, Matthew, obviously felt that it fit his mood and the mood of the Star Trek Online image that he sent in. Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths, Enwrought with golden and silver light, The blue and the dim and the dark cloths Of night and light and the half-light, I would spread the cloths under your feet: But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet, Tread softly because you tread on my dreams -- W.B. Yeats If you're not poetic, no worries! We love to get screenshots from everyone -- lyrical poetry or limerick silliness are just a plus. Send in your image to us here at oneshots@massively.com along with your name, the name of the game, and your note. Please make sure your image is at least 1024px wide and has little to no visible UI in it. We'll post it out here and give you the credit for sending it in! %Gallery-85937%
One Shots: Rock on
While not every achievement is marked with a flashy badge or a listing on a leaderboard, there are still tons of them to be enjoyed out in the MMOGsphere. Today, we have a personal happy moment that Matthew (also known as Charles@Tiberius1986) achieved -- and decided to share with us from Star Trek Online. He writes in to explain it to those of us who aren't zipping around in this particular corner of MMO space: "Today marked the day I had finally saved up enough to purchase the Dreadnought starship in Star Trek Online. I play the game every day, and [this ship is] a wonderful reward for endgame players who love the game. I took this beautiful image while resource gathering in a star system. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do." If you've accomplished something that you'd like to show off, why not take a screenshot and send it in to us here at oneshots@massively.com! Be sure to include your name, the name of the game, and a description of what we're seeing. Guilds, servers, or other information like that are welcome as well. It could wind up as the next one we post here on One Shots. %Gallery-85937%
