Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on March 30
- Rewards: Gold: 400, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50
- Final notes: Hmmm... It was a tuff contest... I was slightly disapointed in the lack of creativity... alot of you stuck to the easier things!! for my future contests, remember that the big points will be rewarded to what I think is the most "Out There". Ok, but on a positive note, I really enjoyed the poetry itself... It was of very good quality!
