guys and girls, ladies and gents, sane and insane. welcome to a prewrite rounds contest.
prewrites are not necessary to every round, but will be allowed in every round. i currently have enough points for five rounds, but i'll be getting points via comments on these and so on, so i'll be adding more rounds hopefully.
each round will last two weeks at least, and it will work on a points system. at no point will anyone be eliminated, so please stick around, or i'll give your place to another.
please now enter one prewrite [new writes also accepted, and neither valued more nor less than prewrites] which is either very dark, or very romantic.
rules:
1. no porn.
2. no reigion, no spirituality.
3. no piece entered can be a previous trophy winner at any point in the series of rounds. please, no previous trophies on these pieces...
points system:
every piece entered in every round will be given a number of brownie points; no piece will get any more than one hundred brownie points. you will not know how many points any piece has recieved. after the five rounds [each round will have a different theme/prompt] the poems with the most brownie points will win. and every round will have points and trophies to be won. simples.
feel free to ask to be a co-judge [please do] and feel free to ask questions and such.

I'm not sure I get the point of the brownie points. If each round has a different theme then what is entered in this round would not fit in the other rounds and so what is the point of brownie points and the reason behind keeping them a secret?
-
-
no worries ^_^
ok say poem 1 by poet x gets 35 points in this round. it isnt a great score. in the next round, poet x might get 95 points. so in total it'd be 35+95/200 [sorry not great at maths, will be using calculator when doing the maths for this].
if poet x knew s/he got only 35 points s/he might feel disheartened. whereas, if i keep it secret, i can keep track of where poet x might be more comfortable [ie, dark, romantic, form, freeverse, etc] instead of just going on one or two pieces, like other rounds contests.
each round, i will be expecting a different poem from each poet to be entered. to make sure, i won't repeat the prompts/themes.
does that make sense, or have i confused you more?
-
-
what if the piece we enter is entered in another contest and it wins a trophy during the duration of this one?
-
-
it happens. if it happens, great, it means someone likes it.
if it has a trophy when i first read it, it'll be dq'd. if it wins during the 2wks [or before if it gets filled] its fine, i wont dq. -

okie doke, thanks
