Hello everyone, I had some thoughts today, and I really dont know if this would be a good idea for a contest. But I always liked writing poems in reply of other poems, and this is what this contest is based on. So basically, Find a friend, or anyone, does not have to be a friend and reply to his/her poem. It must be someone who has entered this contest. Therefore, you can arrange to have you and your friend write 2 poems that relate to each other, and one must be a reply to the other or connects to it in anyway.As for the points, each entry will get its own set of points, The winners will be in couplets, this means that if you receive the Gold trophy your friend will receive silver. If you receive bronze your friend will automatically be disqualified from receiving Gold and can either receive a silver or honourable mention. The point is that your poems will affect each other. So basically there will be 2 groups of winners!
Anyone is welcome to enter a poem and wait for a reply or someone making a connection to it, but please if you do not get a reply in 2 days, remove your poem from the contest, please.
In your authors notes please include the tittle of the poem you have replied to, or you are connected with, this just makes it a lot easier for me to figure things out.
Rules are the basics,and no sticky caps, they just get on my nerves. There will be no topics, you pick your own. =)
If you have any questions you are more than welcome to message me and ask. Enjoy it, and best of luck to all.

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on May 17, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 1 people
- Final notes: Thank you all for your entries,
I have to be honest and say that I was dissapointed in the way things ran?!.. This contest took forever to judge, and I appologize on my behalf, There was a lot of delay because I couldnt figure out who has replied to who and who has not, other than the fact that I got very few entries.
I was surprized to see that some people have entered solo, where the whole point of this contest was to be paired up. Anyhow, this is a contest to learn from,
Again congrats to the winners , You didnt only do a great job by following and respecting the rules, you also connected perfectly and did wonderful!, Thanks to all again,
Princess
