Last month, we noted a significant increase in single and collaborative posts. We also noted some members moving to the 25+ cumulative posts roll, notably Jay-ar Bugayong (ngitingbatis) with total cumulative posts of 48 posts, Jack Alvarez with 28 posts, and Mar Farrales (pipit) with 27 posts.

A very interesting development in emanilapoetry of course is the opening of Rengahan with three threads being worked on by multiple authors.

A Cinquain Train started by emllavata and ham8113 attracted 77 responses. The top co-authors of A Cinquain Train for the month of June are Engel and blue angel with 20 posts each followed by Ham, OliverCarlos, Manonton, and Ka Enchong.

Rengahan Lambingan has also attracted a very good following with 31 lengthy and separate rengas. Doon Po Sa Amin another rengahan has 8 collaborative posts as comment responses as at end of last month.

Below stats are cumulative posts to 11 April 2009, (31 May 2009) and 30 June 2009..

Whoa!

We (Me and Ham) didn’t expect it (the “cinquain train”) to create such ‘wave’ (eh?).

Thanks anyway to manonton-senpai, oliver, ka enchong, blue angel and (the latest addition to the fold) Rose.

More Thanks to you (emanila) guys for the appreciation.
