THE GRADUATE
Mrs. Robinson: Do you find me undesirable?
Benjamin: Oh no, Mrs. Robinson. I think, I think you're the most attractive of all my parents' friends. I mean that.
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 3MAR FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced. |

Just to let you know folks, we're waiting on a couple of people to send me their votes.
I won't name them to avoid causing any embarrassment.
I just hope Livie and Calmer are grateful.
Ooops!

Thats alright then!
There were 9 voters altogether, including two lurkers, who I won't name to avoid causing them any embarrassment.
Not that either Rockfsh or ChrisC are particularly shy.
Ooops! Did it again!
Anyhow, here we go...
In third place we have...
A tie...
On 8 points, with a 3,3,1,1 and a 3,2,2, 1, we have the equally wonderful CHOCOLATE LADY and MONTGOMERY respectively. A date with Benjamin for the both of you!
In second place, on 9 points, 3,2,2,2, we have...
our very own Mrs Robinson, BaftaBabe!! (Just joking there Baffy!)
And on 16 points, with 3,3,3,2,2,2,1, we have the much less wonderful but still a human being and therefore of some intrinsic value, me.  I get a future in plastics. Thank you all so much.
Will think up another film and get back to you ASAP.
