    Hard to compete with that Laddy.

    EDIT: but let's try anyway.

    There once was a fellow name Unne,
    Who wanted me to write him a tune.
    The pressure made me pee,
    I need new pants you see.
    I'm going to go cry in my room.

    I'm not interested in this game
    But I'll write one of these all the same.
    If it can rhyme
    And keep in time
    Maybe I'll increase my e-fame.

    Thanks for the poems. I will review them in the morning when my head is clear and send out some Christmas presents.

    I decided to pick one limerick and one haiku.

    Our limerick winner is:

    It sounds like you know stuff about this game, so hopefully you'll enjoy it.

    Special "thanks but no thanks" to those who offered sexual favors. Props to Pike for making me feel bad about not picking yours; guilt trip is effective.

    A bit of a disturbing way to win a game where girls beat the crap out of each other, but there you go. It's a good poem.

    Nicolas yours was close in the runnings, but "totes" spoiled it for me. Kudos to Spuuky for most effective appeal to contest-runner's biases, it almost worked.


    Thanks for indulging me. These were all great and I wish I had a dozen more copies of the game to give out.

    Looks like Steam is down temporarily, so I'll send the games out when I'm able.

    I'll take that as a consolation prize.

    Yay! I knew doing my Skullgirls research when the game first launched would pay off. Thank you sir.

    I knew I should have added that 4th line to my haiku about how great Skye-chan and Origami are.
