Alright, new rule. If you want to spam up the thread with totally off topic things, make a God-Mod Thread, and have at it. At least keep your bizarre discussions mildly on-topic...

LISTEN UP HATFU- oh, wrong thread.

FZ - Fair enough about the Thompson. Who the hell carries an SMG around with him in a civilian setting all the time, anyway? I intended Tommy to jump in after the RP started, when Demon told him to come with firepower, so that's why i listed the fiddle-case Thompson.

JAD - BAR, while amazingly fun to have, is not as concealable as an M1A1 Thompson. Not to mention 20 round mag is a pain, though BAR is better for beating faces in.

My haiku -

Filled With Mad Ramblings
Pre-RP Discussion Threads
Are Insanity Risks

*A quiet round of golf claps for Dante's Haiku*

Since I don't want to sift through a couple hundred posts looking for the answer, am I the only one who thought that 'swimming' would be a useful skill to have?

The Mind bends slightly
The stress too much to take
The Mind snaps in two

Swimming is a skill
That you will not miss until
You really need it

I'm back all.

Like Dante said in Haiku, swimming is a skill you won't miss until you really need it...

And I've got a few new things to add, I'll add them when they are all done. You'll want to look over them.

Any last minute questions? The RP will most likely start tomarrow.

Yeah RP tomorrow; I am way to overexcited. You have any ideal about what time FZ? Also, cause it seems to be a trend here is a haiku:

Insanity reigns
the world warped in a strange way
Forever changed mind

Well... About time I'm not sure, probably around 6:00 or so my time (Eastern Time, US)

And my Haiku would suck, so I'm bucking the trend... Just cause I like to buck trends...

Haiku is really only as hard as you make it. If you knock yourself out trying to follow that stupid 5-7-5 rule then most of your haikus will come out forced. There is a large contingent of writers who dont believe in the 5-7-5 rules; and heres a haiku to demonstrate:

In five seven five
Haiku nature can be found
greatness lost to rules

I'm generally not that great at poetry at all. I'm much better writing a novel/short story epic. Just how my brain works. However...

FZ tries Haiku,
It seems very short to him,
He'll try more later.

Just a few suggestions; when you write Haiku the first and last lines should be images with little or no action, the second should be a sentence fragment that somehow ties to the first image. Haikus that make one complete thought and sound like a runnon sentence dont usually work well. Also, try to avoid pronouns in the whole thing and save articles for mainly the second line. These arent absolutes but they help.

Here is another one:

Sound envelops
Isolated by darkness
Lost in eternity
