For only the trophyless. Must have no trophies at the time of judging. Young writers are welcome.
This contest is to give writers a chance for their first Allpoetry trophy.
I will accept any kind of write, but I will be awarding trophies to those writes which happen to strike my fancy. I can't really tell you in advance which ones may, so give it a shot if you have no trophies.
Prewrites are allowed.
Only one entry per writer.
Standard rules apply.
Erotica and profanity are acceptable, but will not necessarily improve your chances.
Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on October 2, 2006
- Rewards: Gold: 300
- Final notes: I want to thank all of you for entering. I enjoy reading your writes. Some were very good and all of them were fun. I hope all of you will continue writing and continue at Allpoetry. The winners of the contest are:
1st. iraqi boy's tale - abuyi
2nd. Inspiration - Kooler - Den - Ice
3rd. Painted smile - J-j
I had intended to award nine trophies in this contest, but because of the interpretation of policy by Allpoetry staff I found it necessary to alter the contest to only three trophies. For those who entered expecting a shot at the additional six trophies I am sorry. I will run additional contests for trophyless writers in the future. For those of you who did not win, keep writing and keep entering contests. The more you write and enter, the more trophies you will acquire.

Hi,
Are you thinking of giving out 9 trophies through a trophy pickup? Just to let you know that trophy pickups are no longer allowed.
Thought I'd let you know.

They are still doing them. Who has disallowed?

Sent you a link. Hope you received it.

I received the link and replied to your post on the board as well as Kevin's. I am discussing it with Maatkara. It is no big matter.
