I was trying to think of an easy way to get rid of the friends invite I have, so...

Write a haiku about starcraft1 or 2 or why you should get the key. It can be funny or serious. Sometime tonight I'll decide the winner.

Contest Closed - Results Below

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

I almost feel bad deciding given how much effort some people actually put into this. I should've done something even easier; like tell me a joke or send me a picture of a dog sniffing its ass.

Unfortunately, there can only be 1 winner (unless I get another key).

But first, the runners up:+ Show Spoiler +

This one made me laugh the most. It was hard for me not to give you the key just because I hate Spiderman 2

I find the saddest thing about haikus,
Is their particular brand of ubiquity,
They seem the only form that people use,
With any kind of solemnity

'tis fascinating strange to write,
A sonnet when 'twas not requested
And yet it's how I think I'll spend this night,
In iambic solitude sequestered

The sonnet is the perfect form,
For me as it was for William Shakespeare,
And from my saddened eye is torn,
A single, glistening, reluctant tear

For the sonnet is the perfect poem,
But for me trochaic is the norm :'(


Not a haiku, but deserves praise nevertheless. I would have given the key to you, but I can't break my own rules.


And the winner is...... Drumroll please.....

Starcraft 2 will suck,
If I don't get to play it
So give me Beta

I think we'll go out if I
Give her [a] Beta Key
