    A poem to achievements! (True Fan attempt)

    Every Bone Broken,
    How easy it looks,
    Like wise good phrase spoken
    While reading some books.

    Intro of Speed,
    It feels like a dream,
    We should be agreed
    That it's ways are supreme.

    Let's tell Jorma thanks,
    He brought us a norma
    That gave us our shanks,
    By name Balls of Jorma.

    Promising Student -
    No biggie, Good Job.
    It's nice you're so prudent,
    Like my good friend Bob.

    No Gain no Pain,
    The developers say.
    It might even rain
    On someone's highway.

    (Saku's) Pilot's License
    Who doesn't have one?
    Let's try to keep balance
    While Saku gets one.

    Achievement with Bones,
    There are lots of ladder
    Seven wishbones
    As fact of the matter.

    Jorma is prudent,
    Jorma is fast,
    We hope he won't fall,
    His speed's unsurpassed!

    Acrobat tells us
    A tale of balance
    And also a plus
    Of giving us valance.

    Maracas we get
    For flipping a lot
    In one special place
    That'll probably haunt.

    Real Talent you have
    But can you get better
    To make a nice salve,
    You have to wear sweaters.

    A tale of an apple,
    Trees and Physics,
    Newton grapples
    The idea of lyrics.

    You get Bad Vibes
    After being awesome,
    But some evil scribes
    Have foretold your mortem.

    Let Zakor enjoy his beer,
    He's got a whole case!
    He earned it although
    By passing a maze!

    Voltman's quite hard,
    But you can still manage
    If you flip a lot
    At times that are savage.

    Grace of patience
    Do it ten times!
    You might even get
    True Fan for your crimes!

    200 meters of one wheel
    While keeping nice tan -
    You became human pinwheel
    And were deemed Wheelie man!

    Been There, done that
    Looks almost like moon,
    Now let's see you perfect that
    Like a real shogun!

    Speed Boost isn't easy
    From one point of view,
    But you'll have to go easy
    Let it be a nice clue.

    Superhuman's quite a feat
    I congratulate you.
    That is if you didn't cheat
    While having this pursue.

    Dogs and Scores,
    They're on top,
    If you manage -
    You can flop!

    A dark tale of horror,
    We call it Inferno,
    But you'll get a furor
    Like the one at Borodino.

    True Fan is the Grail
    We all want to reach it
    It's like a fox-tale
    You have to commit!

    A word from author:
    Hi, I just want to thank the creators of this game for the awesome experience I had playing it, the game is a real masterpiece! Also I want to thank you for not making easy achievements - it's thrilling to actually get them, also extremely rewarding.
    You might wonder why I've decided to write this? The answer is simple - True Fan achievement. I really want it and I'm not good at making models, textures, editing videos or programming, so I decided to write this. Why now? I've had the game for ages, but now seeing as the game developers are now committed to Xbox 360 version, I decided to hurry up. I really hope all of you enjoy it, and sorry in advance for crimes against English, Humanity and Poetry, also sorry if some of it doesn't rhyme that well and makes no sense! Thanks and enjoy!

    Very original. But I wonder what to do about the true fan...

    Can we get a YouTube video of someone (you?) reading the poem? Others can help too (there are lots of video makers in the Trials HD section at least). How about a competition in the forum about whose trials poem video gets the most views? If someone's video of this poem gets over 1000 views, you have a true fan award!

    And what's your real playtime? We don't usually give true fans right away to players who have just started playing.

    Oh, my English isn't that good when it comes to speaking, let alone reading poems on the internet. it would be a bit embarrassing really... If you are implying someone else reading it on youtube, I'm really not sure if I would be able to get someone to read it - after all it's not entirely perfect. I can try posting on the video forums though.

    Now, my real playtime is way above 200 hours, I've been playing the game since it's Steam release.
