Trophy pickup contest!!! Prewrites most welcome

Alert!

This might be one of those trophy pick up contests because what I am proposing is that if you have a poem that for one reason or another you never got into a contest and regretted it because you thought you would have had a damn good chance of winning or one that you felt you were ripped off from... keep in mind that I will ask a lot of you. No pedestrian entries


I have a feeling I will be deleting a lot of entries and likely some from my good friends so i'd caution you of being un-understanding.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on June 7, 2008
  • Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100
  • Final notes:
    This contest has been cancelled by me
    because I was told how I should run it.
    Definitly some of the greatest poetry i've seen in a while I've got to say.

    This contest brought out some very talented entries... unfortunatly it will soon be erased... and I too will fade away as the moderators of this site now have a bone to pick
