RIGHT ... Thank you to Amunet Wolfbane for going to the trouble of EMAILING me about this contest. I am [so] sorry to everyone who is waiting for it to be judged, basically, I'm traveling south east asia right now and internet connection is NOT what I expected it to be - mostly I am on dial up for a few minutes, perhaps 15 at most, and the connections drop frequently. However, now I am in Phuket at a nice hotel, and access to GOOD internet connection. I am installing a new method of responding to poems - 'no' means, no thank you. and 'yes' means to the final. I apologise, I will try to do 'proper' comments but I have only until the end of March, and, not enough internet time I fear.
THANK YOU to everyone, particularly Kevin, and AW for bearing with me. I am determined to get this sorted.

This is pretty simple...
So, I was browsing contests, and catagories, and saw that the largest contest ever, that I could find, had 2109 entries. Now that's all very well, but the majority had never been commented on, which is such a shame. So, I set to you [and myself] a challenge;
I'm seeking to make this the biggest ever AP contest. Donations are welcomed. The prize points WILL increase daily as the number of entries grow. I'll earn loads of points by commenting on all the poems - so I'll give those points to the winner. No poem will be applauded for this reason. Feel free to feature this contest also, if you wish
You can write on any topic EXCEPT erotica / sex / lust / adult topics. These will be removed. I advise you to enter your best, your favourite, or, any new write you might think of.
Also;
- no chat speak
- I will correct spellings, so use spell check if you're able =]
- nO tYpInG lIkE tHiS
- preferably nothing overdone with metaphors so much so that I don't know what you're talking about; i like 'easy listening' poetry
- you can now enter up to three entries each.
The following topics may have a bigger chance of winning, as these are the ones I like to read most;
- about your pets [happy/sad]
- animals in general
- musicals
- rhymes as opposed to freeverse
- 'in memory' poems
Not only that, but I WILL comment on every entry; not a "good job thanks for entering" comment, but a proper one; with what I liked / disliked, perhaps constructive criticism, etc. So c'mon people, give me a challenge - let's see if I can follow through, and let's see who will become the winner of the biggest contest ever on AP....

Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on April 28
- Rewards: Gold: 10000, Silver: 5000, Bronze: 3000, Honorable mention: 5 people
- Final notes: Thank you so much to (a) everyone who entered this contest, (b) everyone who left their entries IN the contest until this day, (b) Amunet Wolfbane for all her help, and assistance, and (d) Kevin for allowing extra time, and what not that I needed.
Unfortunately this didn't quite break the goal I needed of over 2000 entries, although perhaps it's a good thing seeing as I wasn't online as much as I expected.
This contest began in November, finally closed on 31 Jan, and is judged today, 29th April - what a work out!
It's a pleasure to say that the contes received, originally, 1400 entries, though many have withdrawn already, perhaps after reading their comments and noticing that I didn't place them in the finalist list ... I'm sorry for that.
There were so many amazing entries - and choosing at the end was hard, alhtough, I'd had my first three places in my head all along; blown away by the first, and the memories it holds for me, Christmas Wonderland.
Second, Death and Denial; what a heartbreaking read, and a poem I've loved for some time.
Third, When Jesus Met Santa, this should be made into a storybook.
the HMs; sorry to the other finalists who did not place, it was hard to choose, I assure you.
And finally, I know [I've been told] that many of you disregarded the 3 poems each only rule, which disappoints me for the honour system, but it's my own fault as I didn't realise that I could limit the number of poems each person could put in, so I'm as much to blame for that.
Thanks again to everyone for participating, and being patient with me. I hope you are all pleased with your comments - and congrats to those who placed.
Yours,
Symphony [tired now ]

whoa if you do get over 2000 entries my heart goes out to you
so many comments then again I always see your name on the top comments
-
-
Lol, yup, I comment a lot - where I work, I sit at a computer all day, doing 'filing' on a computer - and so the work gets tedious. Reading, writing, and commenting on poetry breaks up my day hugely - so why not punish myself with the contest
hope you'll put an entry in!
-
-
ahh I see! heh, I need to get back into commenting! I've let it slack lately
but not anymore!
-
-
-

I've entered LOADS so yeah, you should have a load of interesting things to read haha, no seriously they're not that good as they're by me. But that's alright. Good luck judging this, you'll need it. There's bound to be nearly a thousand entries by the end of this!
Loves,

awesome I'm just a basic member on here so I can't see who wrote which poems - which I guess makes it all the better as I can't be accused of playing favourites or anything like that
Entries are flying up now in the new year - can't beleive we've hit over 500 - I guess I'd better get commenting!!
-

Interesting
I saw this contest a few days ago but I just entered 2 tonight.
Good luck to you and all of the contestants. This will definitely be a challange. -

Entry: Prewrite: Dream State. Holy points batman.. people could do their own contests with those amounts!

seems like you've got a handful; did you expect your request for the most poems in a contest EVER would work this well?
good luck with your reading; it's gonna take a long time! awesome idea for a contest, LOVE it (however, i'm not using this idea. i'd have to read for HOURS, and that isn't quite my idea of fun 
) LOL goodluck
