Thought about another one... "LÖVE Source" to mark the source code :)

Like, "CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD LOVE SOURCE".

There should be these lines on the tutorials page:

I wanna know what löve is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what löve is
I know you can show me

Haha, damn straight. :D

Or perhaps tido should whip up a LÖVE-related haiku?

One clearly sees the gradient "segments", but I actually thought that was kind of cool. Ehe.

You do realise that that is in no way a haiku, right?
There are like 20 morae too many in there. It's hard to write stuff with mora though, when writing in none-Japanese languages, as it's not like one character is one mora in western languages.
But, one syllable is often 2 mora in western languages, especially if there are diphthongs then there are at least two mora. A mora is sort of similar to phonemes.

Also, I think that would qualify more as a senryuu than a haiku, if you were to claim that 5x7x5 syllables is valid as haiku and senryuu.
(Sorry, but you shouldn't let people who study linguistics and Japanese on here if you want to start talking about haiku and shit).

I see you haven't changed, Sardtok :D! Still bitching about details like in the good old days. (Queue Sardtok: "Well, actually, it's a actually not a detail, because blah blah blah")

I don't know, you can call it a detail if you want, it's more like the common western misconception of the definition of a haiku (syllables vs. morae).
Also, haiku are supposed to have certain thematics, while senryuu has the same structure, but there are no thematical requirements, although it should be funny.

PS.
I guess you can now say you've made LÖVE with a linguist.

Was that filter powered by LÖVE?
And you know, in like 6-7 years or something, when you guys stop working on LÖVE, you can say: "LÖVE is dead!"

And to your threat all I have to say is:
What is LÖVE,
Baby don't hurt me!
Don't hurt me!
No more!
