I never managed to figure out something clever for my signature on Paradoxplaza, and I doubt I'll do it here either.

It's been neat to see the evolution of a game. Salem has come so far, and still has far to go. Although frustrating, I think it's been an experience worth the effort.

thank you all for sharing your great works!

tip time!

let me pick 2 of them as examples.

i like it, but the last line "And the fish not caught" is a bit too "explanatory" for senryu or haiku standards.
maybe, "And the empty rod"? to show "no fish caught" without explaining it in words.
(well, if that is what you meant, that is....)

i personally love this too, but maybe we want a bit more sarcasm or irony for entertainment in here.
educational haiku's are called "hyougo" (slogans) instead, and often students are forced to make a few at school :P

e.g.
- hyougo -
A zebra crossing
Watch left, watch right, watch left again
Cross it with your arms up


- senryu -
Red traffic light
Everyone crosses together in group
No danger, no fear
