Thanks to aimless for the original game and the idea. Thanks go to / for helping with the role set and co-modding.

I am kwanton and I am your mod
Whatever I say is what will go
If you’re not active I’ll give you a prod
And this is Bad Poets 2 just so you know

Rule number 1 for you guys
Your PMs are yours and yours alone
And only for your eyes
Besides name and claim share with no-one

Your votes, unvotes, should be in red,
And counted as part of your poetry
You have license on how it's said
Be clever, it’s funny for me when you try :D

One half plus one results in lynch
You may vote to end with none
But the one you vote will be in a pinch
And only one “Bah!” post when you’re gone

Three days in a night, Five in a day
But I’ll change that if I think best
For I am the mod and that’s what I say
And I say this poetry will out you to the test 

The normal rules will still apply
Don't edit, be active, don't spam
If you're unsure, surely ask why
I don’t like sandwiches with ham

Poets must speak their lines in verse
Your PM gave you the poem you must try
Critics are free, but prose is worst
Write in a fake poem or town will find out your lie

If you should break your verse's form
One warning by PM you'll get
A small mistake is fine, but don’y make it the norm
And let’s start my most evil game yet.


BAD POET’S SOCIETY 2: REVENGE OF THE CRITICS

All the normal rules apply of course ( don’t edit, be active or be prodded, don’t quote Pms etc.)
Votes and unvotes shall be in RED
Poets are given claims and a form of poetry they MUST write in. This is a post restricted game if you haven’t figured it out already.
Critics do not have a type of poetry they must post in, but if they want to blend in with town they should find one. I may or may not give fakeclaims/poetry.
Game days will last five 24-hour days and game nights will last for three however I can change that if I see fit.
I will allow short off-topic comments to be written outside of verse - for instance, if you need to correct a typo in a previous post, you do not have to create a poem specifically for the fix. However, anything on topic must be written in verse. Comments outside of you verse should be denoted by parentheses; i.e. (Edit - In the above, "you" should be "your.")
If you’re poetry form is particularly hard or long I will allow you to split your posts up in sections. For instance, if your poem form is 10 stanzas long, you may do two separate posts with five stanzas each. These posts do not have to be consecutive, just label them somehow (like first half/second half or Part A/Part B)


All credit for the idea goes to Aimless. The original thread can be found here

I present to you guys my attempt at resurrecting a classic game setup: Bad Poet's Society.

This is a POST RESTRICTION game and you'll have to write all your posts in poems.

Inzel, Hopefully this time I'll last longer than Day 1.

Note to mod, If you actually use Eddie Longboat in this game and assign it to someone then you are truly twisted. But odds are good you'll make some of the vets get some form of poetry from some Chinese poet from like 1200 or something and they have to be posted in their original language. Be kind to us dear mod...lol

Well, I guess I'm crazy and literate enough to write poetry.

I'm hoping for something easier like e.e. cummings or something.


Then
I
just
need
lots
of




space.

Hehe. Roles will decided completely by RNG so it's up to luck :lol:

I have roles set up already and I tried not to put any really hard poetry forms in but I can change that at anytime :twisted:

Maybe you'll die early in a bunch of them?

I just died Night 1 in Winner,

I think Night 2 in South Park,

Day 3 in Unknown,

Night 4 in Firefly.

And boom! Suddenly have plenty more time.

Step back, poetic fools,
This teacher will take y'all to school.
Sully's here to take the win,
Much to your chagrin.
I dig this mod's style, yo,
Haven't seen him for a while, bro,
So let me be in, my friend,
This one will be alive in the end!

-Sully

I think I've turned myself into the type of the player that isn't good enough to NK but too good/not scummy enough to be lynched. Thusly I end up surviving to the later days more often than I want to.

Ok, here's the thing. I would most certainly like to play this game, avenge myself on Tal and read a few more poems (if Inca is still playing please invite him, classic poetry without instructions how to repel mosquitos in Greece does not deserve to be called 'classic' :D ). However, I am almost certainly going to my grandma's house for at least a week and a half, starting with 14th where I shall be without internet. Also, the details of my extraction from that Hell have not yet been completely arranged. So, if the game starts now, I'm out :( , but if it starts later, I'm in. :D

I'm willing to reserve a spot and delay they start of the game a little for anyone who was in the previous game. Maybe a week or two max after game fills. As long as theres not too much backlash from other players lol.

Either way, this isn't filling up too fast so we'll see what happens.

That's would be great. Unless the greatest plans of pikachus and men fail, I should be connected by July 24th.

Besides, you owe me, Kwan, since I took full blame for OUR dropping the ball last time. ;) (by "took full blame" I mean "cursed Talapus' name")

Anyway people, I'm departing for the wilderness of Makarska (actually it's a town, but my grandma's house doesn't have wireless internet for some reason :ugeek: ). I should be back by the beginning of August.

Behold! Another man shall join
Wishing inexperience not tell the tale
I'm ready for challenge, eager for victory
Hoping my tactics will not fail
