Let's go with one of my favourite movies of all time:

The Philadelphia Story


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 (and feel free to take notice of my For Your Considerations).

When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday April 1, FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced ASAP.

No need for lurkers this time around as all particiants pushed their votes straight through the front door. While it may be early to post the results, I just couldn't wait to put this goddess on up, since the votes... my, but they were yar!

In Third Place with 7 points: Whippersnapper

In Second Place with 9 points: BaftaBabe

And in First place.... what? Huh? with 10 points...







Ooops
