Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on May 8, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 4 people
- Final notes: Sooo...there were many people that didn't vote, but the majority of you did. The one poet that would have really benefitted from voting was whoever wrote the Wreck of the St. Marie...it would have won if you voted. It was one of my personal favorites as well
The winning poem "Lost" received three votes. All of the other finalists received two votes each. I put them in order according to my own personal tastes. Congrats on your winnings, I added one honorable mention to make sure that everyone who got two votes received at least some points. This was fun, but hard to do. Thanks for participating!!!!
