Win SBDs and More in the VDUX Haiku Contest. Let's Mambo Baby!!!


Source: Giphy

No dancing necessary to win 2 SBD, author rewards, and some free publicity. All you need to do is write a haiku.

(BTW join the SBD Giveway (Grand Experiment))

Read below for more about the contest instructions, how to participate, awards, and how I'll select a winner.

Contest Instructions

Write a haiku about artificial intelligence. You don't have to include the words "artificial intelligence" as long as it's clear that you're writing something related to AI.

This must be a one-stanza, traditional 5-7-5 haiku like the ones described here: http://www.kidzone.ws/poetry/haiku.htm . Here’s an example:

Vdux loves AI

He adores algorithms

They don't love him back

You may submit multiple haikus, but you need to make each haiku its own reply. Each one will be considered a separate entry.

Thank you to @shawnsporter for the theme suggestion. I'll transfer .005 SBDs to you for the suggestion!

How to Participate

  1. Reply below with your haiku. Deadine: 11:59 pm UTC, June 9, 2018.

That's it! But...

You should also resteem this post to increase the winner's prize and give yourself some free exposure! You can participate without resteeming -- I don't give preference -- but if you do resteem, it only helps you.

Also, post your entry on your own blog! Mention @vdux and I'll give you an upvote and resteem your post.

Awards

Winner gets:

  • 2 SBD
  • Half of this post's author awards
  • One free "shout-out" for winning
  • One free resteem from me for any of the winner's posts. (You choose the post. There's no time limit but I reserve the right to refuse resteem any post I consider offensive or indecent -- I'll simply ask you for a different, non-offensive post.)

One runner-up gets:

  • One free "shout-out" for winning
  • One free resteem from me for any of the winner's posts. (You choose the post. There's no time limit but I reserve the right to refuse to resteem any post I consider offensive or indecent -- I'll simply ask you for a different, non-offensive post.)

How I Will Select the Winner

Within a few days after the deadline, I will read all entries and choose a winner and runner-up. While I'll take upvotes into consideration, my selection will reflect my personal preference based on the entries you submit.

Feel free to reuse a haiku from the past and write as many as you want!
