Ode to UIE
Some are new members, and some from the start
Always learning more of Unreal and it's art
We've grown as a whole, one great, green part.
Many Times I've been asked, who is it that are "we"?
And: What does it mean to be UIE?
There's only one thing it could possible be
The finest and greatest Unreal Community.
We started out simply, not a care in the world
With no knowledge of what, was about to unfurl
The (K)nights of the round table, called "Regular Game"
Were established at first, with one simple aim:
"Dawn dusk or drunk, shall no man feel shame,
Sundays and Thursdays, remain never the same,
We reside on the server, Games3 is it's name,
Our aim is now clear, never to be changed"
This is the Ultimate Story
Of unreal dot ie,
Good and bad times had by us
And how we came to be,
Listen closely to these words
Maybe then you will see
This is the Ultimate Story of
U – I – E
As hours went by, and days and weeks
For greener fields we went to seek
Until one day, we cried out in frustration
And so began, our onward migration.
L.O.V.E was our saviour, for scouting ahead
And laying foundations for our new bed
Khannie and Pug, CrimsonGhost and Zoro
Then set out to work, for a brighter tomorrow
The first month of '05 was the reckoning at last,
All players and friends, ready to leap from the past
Unreal.ie, was born on that day
Our lives forever changed, in a very good way
Crying out from the rooftops, numbered but a few
Our calling had come, our destiny due
A web and games server, all we had to our name
A group of poor players, hiding in from the rain.
This is the Ultimate Story
of unreal dot ie,
Good and bad times had by us
And how we came to be,
Listen closely to these words
Maybe then you will see
This is the Ultimate Story
of U – I – E
When the sun shone down, on the green fields of Eire
Not a moment too soon, for the gamers we were.
For out of the blue, came servers a plenty
Numbered at 3, just right, not too many
Time ticked forward, as it relentlessly does
No on can stop it, not even us.
A year has now passed, and a new life begins
Our old skin now shed, thrown to the green bin
Our time is numbered, in no way at all
We continue to grow, healthy and tall.
Many have said what good friends we've become
Friends to all, Enemies to none.
6 servers, 1 website, Teamspeak and Shoutcast
Our options are endless, we got here so fast.
Support from our peers, our allies, our friends
Has helped us to grow, no the sight of an end.
The reigns will be passed, in times to come
To those that have proven, care for all and not some
The spirit in which, we have started so strong
Helps all those who visit, feel as though they belong.
And so let me leave you on this final note,
The post that spurred us, by L.O.V.E it was wrote:
"I've bought the domain, all we need is a server"
Leading us here now, with unheard of ferver.
This is the Ultimate Story
of unreal dot ie,
Good and bad times had by us
And how we came to be,
Listen closely to these words
Maybe then you will see
This is the Ultimate Story (This is the Ultimate Story)
This is the Ultimate Story (This is the Ultimate Story)
This is the Ultimate Story Of
Of U – I – E
