Are we going to be shown how each poem is being scored? So, to know where we nail it and where we miss it.

adamic: this is a best opportunity to discover my talent. Pls can we analyse and explain the background of the poem to make it more comprehensive for rhe judge.

That is what we mean by presenting or selling your poems to the judges & viewers. However, that part of the competition is only applicable for the 2 round.

OMA4U: Are we going to be shown how each poem is being scored? So, to know where we nail it and where we miss it.

Just like every competition, there is going be a marking scheme, rubric or template. The judges will score according to that. At the end of the competition, the judges will give an overview of all the poems and what improvements are required.

For round 2, the scores will be very comprehensive/descriptive.

Please, read the guidelines properly, and understand them. Every other information will be provided, as we commence.

Focus on writing good poems, and let's handle the rest.

If your name is not included on the list, immediately, do not bother about that. On the 13th of Aug, 2012, everybody is more than welcome to submit on the official thread. If you just want to let us know in advance that you'd be participating, then, you can do so.
"am in as a poet!"
"am in as a designer!"

Still working on the topics. Will release them, once I am done. It's only needed for round 2

based on the list of poets and designers interested in this competition, it is clear that we are lacking designers.
Don't know if i am over-stepping my bounds but, wouldn't it be a good idea posting some sort of invitation in the tech section for designers (since that's where they dwell)?
Re: Nairaland's "The Poet" Competition Season 2 by Neduzze5(m): 3:14pm On Jul 13, 2013
Erm.....

I'm not used to asking questions

The shy type, you know.

My question goes thus:

Will there be any topics for Round One or do we just go ahead and write any poem at all?

I did a mini advert about this on tech board.

Anyhoo, since that was my intention, I'll create an invitation thread on the tech board.

Thanks
