Back to comedy
Hot Fuzz
Abbreviated rules borrowed from here to encourage some new entrants ....

The Rules

The first line of a haiku poem has five syllables.
The second line has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line has five syllables.

The Movie Haiku Contest (MHC) is open to every member of the FWFR site.

To enter, all you have to do is think of a Haiku for the current movie, then post into the current thread. Simple as that. Also, haikus may be risque, but nothing explicit please.

Only one entry per person as per The Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your existing entry until 9pm Tuesday FWFR time. *


Voting.

If you have entered the MHC, then you have to vote. If you do not vote, you'll lose 3 points from your total, even if you are Sludge and its your birthday. This could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being the feckless butt of our jokes!

You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Vote away. It'll be like a lurker vote!

---------------------------------

For each round, you get to vote for your three favourite haikus. The voting is as follows:

3 pts fwfr a
2 pts fwfr b
1 pt fwfr c
--------------------------------

You may vote only once
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner

You vote by sending me your votes in a PM (Private Message)HERE, to Me. ,

When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday 17 July FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.

Eh, excuse me buster, but those votes would mean that there were SIX votes for 1st place, FOUR for 2nd and FOUR for 3rd.



I demand a recount!

Now look here my good man, if there were 4 entrants and one lurker thats 5 votes - 5 firsts, 5 seconds and 5 thirds.

You have 6 firsts, four seconds and four thirds.

This does not add up.

This is Florida all over again!
