    Default Celebrate RIFT for the Holidays... for Free!

    That's right, it's ANOTHER ZAM Rift giveaway! ZAM is giving out 5 RIFT Collector's Edition game codes along with 30 days of free game time! For this one you need to get on Twitter.

    All you need to do to enter ZAM's "RIFT for the Holidays" contest is follow @ZAMOfficial on Twitter and then fire us your best Fae Yule themed... Haiku! Be sure to also include the hashtag #ZAMRiftHolidays so that we can see your wonderful poetic creation. You can separate your line breaks with forward slashes or the | key. Here's an example to get you going!
    A Festive Haiku
    For the Fae Yule Holidays
    Yule Vaiyuus scare me.
    Remember, Haikus are poems with five syllables in the first line, seven syllables in the second line, and five syllables in the last line. Usually poets can experiment with this form, but for the sake of competition, keep 'em right at 5-7-5! The contest ends at 11:59pm PST Friday, December 24th, so get them in before Christmas Eve!

    What is it with you guys and Haiku's? This is like the 5Th or more contest I've seen revolving around them. They aren't fun to make for most people and many people have great difficulty following the format. Guaranteed you'd get more entries if you guys would hold a more interesting contest. Even a screenshot contest would net you much more traffic.

    You greatly over estimate the US education system as well.

    Don't look at me folks,
    I am just the messenger.
    ZAM News did this one.

    TheGamerDown, you
    missed the contest just ended?
    Screenshots, man, winners!

    Incredulous awe!
    Haiku is not very hard,
    Monkeys can do it.

    I have been busted
    Use @ as syllable and
    # has to count too.

    The shame! Glamour and
    monkeys make better haiku
    than my tired brain.

    You all got about
    four and a half measly hours
    Before entries close!

    Since I was the one
    to catch you doing it wrong
    I win a code, right?

    Why just on Twitter?
    I'd have to make an account.
    To win free game time.

    Sir, a short question:
    How many Haiku per head?
    Too many ideas.

    I don't see any
    restriction; but probably
    can only win once.
