This is quite a monumental task. I would enter, but I personally fear that the odds of winning are greatly undermined by what I am sure will be hundreds of other remarkable amazing entries. I do commend this great under taking. Best of luck to you and the other judges. <3
-
-
yea but what do you have to lose? lol well thx for viewing
-
-
ur only allowing one entry >.<
in the rules it says its unlimited, or did u mean how many ppl can enter?? -
-
i changed it so you can do more then one
-
-
Yeah, I'm having the same problem as Alured Arousement. You said we could have unlimited entries but it's only allowing one. What's up with that?
-
-
i changed it so you can do more then one
-
-
This is quite a challenge to yourself and the others that are helping you comment and judge. Nevertheless, good luck with this.
- Andi -
-
ty!
-
-
add me to the judges list, k?
-
The odds don't work!
Do the math.
Even if you got 100 entries, you would have only one chance in 33 of getting a trophy. With 1,000 entries, you'd have only once chance in 333 of getting a trophy. Three trophies to go around for 1,000 entries is not good odds. BUT, you might make the AP Book of Records or such for numbers of entries. 
-
-
then you've got to have a good poem! lol
-
and also its not about luck and odds, it's about your poem! it's not luck its talent
-
-
I'm also having the same problem as Alured Arousement and BareFootOnConcrete. What's up? Really what's going on?

As the others have said, you've got it set for only one entry per person.

-
you can still help, just dont comment your own poems.
-
-
you're crazy but I admrie your enthusiam bes tof luck in judging I have no good poems so I won't be wntering sorry
-
-

-
-
why would you want a contest with 1000 entries?
-
-
im jus silly like that =p
-
-
For some reason, the contest isn't letting me enter.
-
-
really?
-
-
Really
-
-
try talking to a moderator about it
-
-
-
-
Does this mean that we can escape comments by entering pre-written poems? How splendid!
-
-
haha lol
-
-
What a fun idea. I hope you are stocked up on eyedrops for all that red eye reading
-
-
haha, i've allready read like a bigilion lol. its the caps ones that hurt my eyes
-
-
um...how do you post the link onto your profile?
cuz I entered, but then realized I don't know how to do that... -
i think it's unfair to say that you wont comment on a prewrite. what's the deal?
-
-
of course i'll comment on prewrites just not all of them because i have two people helping me.
-
-
I think it 'won't let you enter' because maybe you didn't scroll all of the pages lol. That's what happened to me. I was like, "What?! Why isn't it working?" and then I noticed that there were like nine pages...oops!
-
goodness.... almost there~ only a couple hundred more to go.
-
-
lol
-
-
I have entered a poem not because I want to win but because this is a crazy contest idea and I want to help you along. Good luck in reading all of these. You are gonna have some job ju8dging !! Good luck to you in getting to 1000.

-
Someones gotten greedy and thrown in seven entries, tut tut Congrats, even site staff are throwing an entry or two in here
-
