hey i have two questions
1) How many entries is each person allowed?
2) does the 60-line limit go for option number 4 as well? (I mean there are choruses to repeat lol)
Nooni -

1) everyone is alowed to enter once only, if they try entering more than once it will replace the poem they have already entered.
2) I'm not sure because some peoples song's can be really short [shorter than 60 lines] and some might be really long so there is no limit for option number 4.
