Hey, obviously I have a lot of minerals, and I want to do around 4 poetry contest, sure the prize wont be so big, only 100 min for 1st 50 for 2nd, and 25 for 3rd. However, I was wondering if its a good idea, and if I do have it I need rules, and most importantly I want atleast 10 people entering. So yea, I just want to know if people will participate and etc. The reason why its 100 minerals is becuase im thinking of having sig contest as well... The prize might be lower, becuase I might even make this into a weekly thing until I have no more minerals lol haha. So im looking for what you think, and your interest.

Id participate, given that it was free verse and not themed. I find any 'style' of writing a restriction to my talents.

you can write in any style you want, but I think a general theme should be their. Its hard to compair the poems if they're all different theme's and will just be chaotic.

I'm not good at poetry, but I'm thinking about joining.

It's a good idea, and usually the prizes are big in most contests here tongue.gif So, how do we join, if we want to join? Do we just PM you or what? And is there a ENTRANCE FEE? If you do, whoever must be careful on joining, because if you like 50 minerals, and your poetry is horrible, you may end up getting no minerals or half the entrance fee...yeah..that was obvious..

omg we got so much people, ok people pick a theme....

It would be something like

Love, Hate, Greedy, Technology, and etc. Something very general, and gives lots of freedom but in the other hand has some what of a limit.

I guess ill be doing the judge for now, but I will still never but I will never win... Ill always give myself the *Best Poem* prize, but with no award lol haha.

So pick a theme, so we can get this thing started, and please check in constantly...

How about the theme is "broken"

Broken gives you alot of freedom yet still holds u to a topic. You dont know what or who is broken.

I need a break from the 'sad' emo, plus it would be too easy. So I say...uh... hope, or 'fixed' yeh that sounds good
