Post your Civ III haiku here!

[cromagnon]

Did not play last night.
Feel somehow empty inside.
Will U.S beat me?

 

[Padma]

Said "Carthage must die!"
Arty and Cav to attack.
Oh no! Infantry!

 

[Chairman Yang]

Enjoy SMAC instead!
Santiago looks better,
than that old jean darc.

 

[Ultraviper]

Silly game poems
Most stupid thing I've seen yet
You all give me gas

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

In GOTM
deity level daunts me
very frightening

 

[Ultraviper]

Only way I win
Are wimpy wins like culture
Violence is bad

 

[purvisxiii]

You knew you did not
Have the new patch so please why
Did you crash my game?


I just took your town
After much fierce endeavour
Now you "g2g?"


When it all boils down
And all new features exposed
Catherine's still a *****


Ingame chat is stra
It's hard to have a conver
When the words disapp

It's my turn again
And my seat is surely hot
Hey! Where'd my guy go?

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

Welcome to CFC purvisxiii and welcome to this thread, where you have added some real gems that capture the flavor and frustration of PTW. My favorite, a reference to the post patch bug that cuts off in game conversati

I agree. Nice work purvisxiii.


Wonder of the world
I've only two turns to go
But the Greeks have one

Shields runneth over
Awash in a whirlpool
Straight down the toilet

Suicide hotline
Was no help, she never heard
Of Leo's Workshop

Our haiku is backed by nukes
Topped at risk of ban

Lazy American
The first line of his haiku
Out of context quote

I write from a tank
Secure to go off topic
Watch out! Mods with spears!

Beware of letters
A leading indicator
Neatly states my fate

Entertainers hired
Taxmen and scientists fired
Happy, dumb, and broke

 

[Chieftess]

Nice Firaxis Chats!
Let's talk about PTW.
Just don't let Zouave in...

(Is Zouave 1 or 2 syllables?)

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

If you pronouce it
"Zwav" it is one syllable
but Zo ahv is two

Cossacks at the gates!
the city I just captured
a gift back to Greece!

 

[Naval Freak]

Destroyers on tour

Twelve and maybe many more

The subs run to shore

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

welcome Naval Freak
to enjoy navies proper
you will have to mod...

 

[JollyRoger]

Will you sink or swim?
Surrounded by our navy
Sultans should beware

 

[Sayounara]

Corruption is endless
Galley has returned to Osaka
Back to work, top

hey ppl, what is SUPER DEITY CHALLENGE?

Can't play GOTM this month
The Useable Computer was corrupted
THIS SUX...SUX

 

[Sim_One]

Sayounara if you're going to write haikus then follow the format of writing a haiku. That means 5 syllables in the first line, 7 syllables second line, and 5 syllables third line. Since your name is a Japanese word it only makes me wonder why you don't know the format of a haiku.

 

[Sayounara]

Don't know what syllables are

Knights near Oil Springs
What will you Offer for Oil Springs?
They will never accept!

HOW MANY SYLLABLES? HOW MANY SYLLABLES WAS IN MY LINES?

 

[Sultan Bhargash]

Put your hand under
your chin while you sound it out
syllables touch hand
