What will you do with a drunken whaler early in the morning?

Nantucket is now available, DRM-free on GOG.com and it's 10% off until January 25, 5PM UTC.
Whales are majestic beasts. Damn-near mythical, by some accounts. But Moby Dick - well, he's another story entirely. As you assume the role of a daring whaler, customizing your crew, charting a course, and trying to score big against the forces of nature or the hazards of seafaring, the pale demon will be waiting for you. Will you conquer the curse that consumed Cpt. Ahab? Or will you drown in it?
Let's see if this thread will get any limericks.

There once was a whaler from Nantucket
Who liked his tea and crumpet
Hunting a white whale
He always looked kinda pale
And then he kicked the bucket

It's a Nantucket limerick. I don't think "good" ever came into play ;)

Mmmhmm.

Hey, won't that be a cool idea for a GOG contest? Didn't have one of those in a long time...

*fondly remembering pool noodles and pickles....*

Hell, let's go all out and make it a rap contest!
$16.19. Damn. And I'm still waiting to set aside money for Okami. Don't make me choose between a white whale and a white wolf.
Achievements for steam, no achievements for GOG = NO BUY!

Was looking forward for this game. Thanks for saving me money, I guess. :/

Dude, you're got the concept wrong. A limerick has 5 lines and a rhyme scheme.

You're probably thinking haiku:

Takes hat off (3)
Wipes away a tear (5)
Mmmhmmhmm (3)

Only if it's a limer-rap
There once was a whale hunting gent
Off hunting a white whale he went
On a ship called Nantucket
'Twas a rusty old bucket
Soon ship and man both met their end

edit: one word too many in the last line

There once was a man from Nintendo
who's own laughter would reach a crescendo
telling poems to a guy
but his jokes would not fly
'cause a limerick needs innuendo
