Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on May 17, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 150, Bronze: 75, Honorable mention: 7 people
  • Final notes:
    Well I'm glad I reached this last contest goal [4 thru 10 Words/In seven contests... whew!] Because the poetry kept getting better and better... The top two were easy this time, but from there on- it was anybody's game... So once again the HM's are in an order... the closer to the top the closer you were to that Bronze cup!!! A seriously tough call too... But I ended up choosing the one that resonated a personal chord within me... It's anybody's guess when that might happen... hehe! And so, as follows- Gold/An Outstanding Piece Silver/Some Very Wise Words and Bronze/ My Personal Favorite... Great job everyone, and thanks for coming out to play!!! ~ NOTE: I do have three more contests running... See my home page...] Vive vie...

    Does a frown face count as a word. I had it in originally in my poem, took it out, but I sort of grew attached to it and wouldn't mind sticking it back in.

    I'll await a judgement before editing.
