New Rule

gren · Sep 14, 2007, 11:27 PM

I have added a new rule for POTM to aid in ease of judging:

Quote:

All entries submitted for a certain month's POTM will be closed one week after the winner is announced. This will help the judges see what is actually being submitted each month.

And for the absolute last time, as stated in the POTM rules, entries that do not follow the month's theme WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED. The judges are not going to PM every entrant to alert them to rules they should have read before submitting their work. So check the "Themes for POTM" thread to make sure any poem you've submitted or are planning to submit qualifies.

Hmm..yea... i wonder...would the old poems be deleted?

I would suggest to put a small hall of fame for the winning poem..

I think the problem that is occuring with the POTM theme thread is that people aren't reading the whole thread. Just the first one that says freestyle. That's what I read when I looked and I was like "Hey....that was a month ago" and then scrolled down to see the new one and had an "ah hah" moment. And felt retarded. So maybe they're not scrolling down to see the new theme.

So, are you going to close the poems still open from last month?... because I've seen at least 2 still open. Or are you going to just wait to enforce this rule for this months contest.

Since it was a recent addition to the rules, I decided to leave the active threads open until the end of this month's POTM (unless they reach the >14 day mark, in which case I'll close them sooner). Immediately when Sept.'s POTM ends, I'll close everything that's still from August. All other entries will then be bound to the new rule.
