The lone granger purrs.
His spit slowly breaks turrets
left from battles lost.
Luci cannons spark.
Sending forth their deadly load.
Many explosions.
Dretches on the floor.
Tyrants blocked by such small friends.
Soon the dretches fly.
Use 5-7-5.
Write some Tremulous haiku.
And feel free to post.
Small aliens crowd.
Eagerly awaiting their potent sting.
The booster has been sawn.
i r good bildar
lololololololol
*decons base and leaves*
Fatfaes saves the day
Fatfaes eagerly bans superpie...
The last rant barfs out the remaining souls and perishes among his deconned egg...
I think this was used
In another thread somewhere
but this is very fun
Tyrants scourge the hills
o'er rise strike many men
guns blazed, aliens fell.., down
As the swarms approach
the man cried of broken friends,
let them die, all die
Mother, while we have
one hundred enemies, we
have one thousand friends
the injured goons
thought the niveus ledge was safe
my lucijump proved otherwise.
It was done before
In a thread that I started
I take no offense
techhead is cool guy
he gives his blessing to n00b
who did not use "search"
or perhaps she adds
a new twist to what's become
a boring dead thread
i relish the chance
to thrill yet again to the
rhythms of haiku
this is the same thread
made by another person
I do not know why
Resurrecting a
thread that has died months ago can
lead to many flames.
Jetters in the sky,
Thinking themselves safe from harm,
The goons disagree.
"Jetpacks are too strong!"
Cried a n00b last week; I said,
"Please go play some more."
Atom Eve is new
At the Trem.net forums, so:
We'll cut her some slack.
I like maps by Trak.
Easter Eggs make me smile, Bud;
You know where I am.
Of course I had to
Edit my post because Eve
Likes to punctuate.
no one cuts noobs slack
you are speaking nonsense now
this thread makes no sense
Makes no sense to PIE
He does not grok poetry
I feel much pity
I grok fine thank you
you can not search in haiku
you waste pity here
what the f***en hell?
this is a very wierd thred
your speach like caveman
Baffled by technology,
You ponder the mystery of spell checkers.
The correct spelling is "speech".
sPeaches are good fruits
You can't fix forum spelling.
It will drive you nuts.
I said cave man right?
it was done on purpose duh
the spelling mistake

I think that you phail
Every line has too many
Syllables in them
i really agree
but asian people are die'n
oops i said too much
Did I write these wrong? Never wrote a Haiku before.
oh, I did do them wrong, heh I thought it was 5,7,5 words..
The darkness has set in,
Hindering movement with the rapid infestation everywhere,
The human is still trapped,
Darkness has set in,
Hindering movement
Human still trapped
The bright and shiny lucifer
Why are you so pretty, you temptress
I cannot help but chase
Bright, shiny lucifer
temptress, so pretty you
cannot help, chase
(I'll fix these later)
The guardian, the protecter, defender
Never tiring, watching, waiting and striking quickly,
Known to many as Camper
Sitting quietly in the distance
A dretch, believing itself to be microsopic
In the distance, dead dretch
The dretch hides above
An unobservant human
Carelessly runs past.
The dretch drops, silent.
Headbite- one evo is gained.
The dretch hides again.
Ah- evolution!
A basilisk skitters on.
Next stop- destruction?
A human is grabbed.
As the 'lisk gently tickles,
The human is doomed?
Three minutes later
The human is still alive.
The 'lisk tickles on.
Reinforcements loom.
The human has summoned aid.
The 'lisk is blasted.
/quit is slammed roughly.
Angry swearing is present;
Unfit for forums.
There is some comfort;
The poor basilisk is buffed
In the next version
Players looking for room.
A Nonexistent path.
Mapper laughs out loud.
five seven then five
this is how to write haikus
those were syllables
I, Haiku patrol
Come to show you the error
Of your haiku ways
Quote from: Circle on February 19, 2008, 04:59:03 AM
Several haiku, see original post
I think you should know
All your haiku have mistakes
But you can fix them

Two lines of haiku
They each have six syllables
And you wrote just one
I have a feeling
That I might make a mistake
And get so busted
Watch the dretches go,
rushing to the human base,
where turrets await.
all you do is quotes?
that aint cool with me noobers
plz write your own posts

I spot bad Haiku
So if you make a mistake
Now you know better
And use some grammar
Those shortcuts in your typing
Destroy poetry

The point, I think, is thus:
Show them the errors they made
Therefore, quotes are good.
My mistakes are caught
By techhead the proofreader.
I have one question:
What is the problem
With the first verse you cited?
It seems fine to me.
The second mistake
Is quite obvious to all.
Consider it fixed.
Rocinante s error
he says not to make errors
he's a hipocrit

that is the error
too many syllables there
six is too many!

rocinates error

he's a hipocrit
Perhaps I would care
If you even spelled my name right
Honestly, I don't.
looking at my post
i dont see a misspelling
you are a liar
I was in error
It was a simple miscounting
'Basilisk' is odd
Roc' please inform me
Four syllables in your name?
If so, snub goofed

Hah, you silly fool
Quoted for truth pre-edit.
You missed "hypocrite"

Yes, there is that too
Rocinante has four beats
Pot? Kettle. Hi there.
Plus, please find for me
Where I said not to error;
I advocate quotes.
See a lonely dretch...
NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP!

Lucifer shot rang out
A dretch fell to the glow
A dragoon lived more

Not another one.
First two lines each have six beats.
Why does this happen?
N00bs complain about
Being treated poorly on
Some random server (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=7486.0).
Others start clans that
Consist of only themselves (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=7487.0)
They too are too new.
Maybe this (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=6449.0) should be
Not just a proposal, dude
But a sticky thread.
I am a whole clan
But I did not feel the need
To tell the whole world
Why did I do it?
I think Techhead looks too short
Sitting by itself
But I do digress
Why talk about my exploits?
When I can hear yours
# this is a comment (not interpreted)
# what do I need to have a proper Hakiu?
You should read the thread
It was explained once before
here it is again

Castlevania III
Is a most excellent game
On the NES
Grant is a pirate
Who plays just like a ninja
I think I'm in love
He is immune to
the ol' "Curse of the Belmonts"
Air control is sweet
