This should have probably been posted a while ago, but I obviously forgot. And with Bughouse finally being linked to from the NEIU website this is very important, as we have a influx of new registrations.
IMPORTANT REGISTRATION INFORMATION
1.) You MUST provide your valid NEIU e-mail address in the NEIU E-mail Address field. Be sure to put your full NEIU e-mail address. Anyone who does not will not be approved.
2.) You MUST provide your Real Full Name in the Full Name field. Anyone who does not will not be approved.
Both of the above are a MUST! They are not shared to the rest of the community, and are purely for Bughouse Administrative purposes!
3.) It is preferred if you register with your NEIU e-mail address, however, we understand that most people do not use their NEIU e-mail address regularly, so you are permitted to use any e-mail address for registration. But be sure to provide your NEIU e-mail address in the NEIU e-mail address field.
4.) Registration is a multi-step process. After registering you will need to Validate your registration through an e-mail sent to the e-mail address you registered with (not necessarily your NEIU e-mail address.)
5.) After Validating your registration through the e-mail sent to you, an Admin or Moderator has to validate your registration. It is at this time that we check to make sure you provided a correct NEIU e-mail address and your Full Name. We try to do this several times a week, and will probably increase the frequency at which will do this.
If you have any questions or concerns please post them.

All poems will be judged by a panal of expert haikuers (myself, and possibly eru)
So get posting!
For all of you who are out of the loop this is what a haiku is
hai·ku (hī'kū) pronunciation n., pl. haiku also -kus.
1. A Japanese lyric verse form having three unrhymed lines of five, seven, and five syllables, traditionally invoking an aspect of nature or the seasons. 2. A poem written in this form
After a couple stumbling blocks and about a week we've finally got some new posters up all around campus for bughouse. If you've seen them let us know what you think.
Eru and I decided on this idea because we thought it would engage people, especially people who might not stop and look at some of the previous bughouse signs we've had up.
Well, there is a lot of talk (by Bughouse standards) about us lately. Not glowing reviews, but not unfounded either. We are really here to try to get more NEIU members to talk to each other, to form a better community, and we invite discussion, criticism, suggestions, assistance, etc.
Tell us what we should do, tell us what you want to do to help, tell us why we're wrong, tell us why we're right, tell us stuff. And don't stop there.
