Thank you for your feedback. By all, you mean?

I don't know if this is relevant to your point, but, I'd go ahead and say it.
In Round 3, the contestants are going to grade themselves openly.

ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE TOP 20 CONTESTANT

Please I asked Mynd to correct the numbering errors. Its quite shameful that we had to implore the moderator to help us Number 1, 2, 3, 4...16.
Come on, guys! We are not in Kindergarten! If we can't adhere to something as simple as this, then how are we so sure that we won't have issues in the subsequent rounds? grin Please you were made Top 20 for a reason, uphold that standard. Numbering should be the least of our worries in this competition. Don't fall my hand cheesy

I submitted the least of my poem n was rated last 6 contestant, actually i know my poem(THE FORTUNE TELLER) Lack some poetic licence, rule n rhyme..... I feel cheating myself cos i never take it serious, just saw the competiton online n paste one of my poem in my journal.....

Great to the moderator, like the u organise everything... I was the one who sent u a message requesting on how i was judge but ve seen it....

Wishing to be part of this next time n give my best shot.
Thank you very much for participating. All 58 contestants are winners! We just needed a few to make it to the next round because of the complexity involved. If it were possible to move everyone to the next round, in fact if I had enough designers, I would do it regardless of the stress it might incur.

By the way, I would just use this opportunity to clarify things, please simply refer to me as Cuddlemii, Cuddles, Cuddle or even Cuddy. smiley

Yours should be - "Reserved for Number 1"

jackbauersballs: Ahem...Victory Speech

I would like to thank the judges for voting, my dad for toasting, my mum for accepting, and the leaking condom for my 'concepting'.

I hope to continue to write disturbing ramblings disguised as poetry, while continuing to make a general nuisance of myself on these boards.

Thank you all.

Shugamania: Am beginning to 'talk' too much but i have an observation.

Like someone pointed out already, When two contestants have d same score their position should be d same too. For instance, if u've got 3 pple scoring 239, it only follows that d 3 pple holds d 7th position together (hence u have 7th, 7th, 7th not 7th, 8th, 9th) while the person next to them automatically holds the 10th.
Ok

@Cuddles, sorry i havent been paying attention. Can we meet our judges?

When do we get to know which designer we'll be working with?

Welldone once again.
You have come a long way. I remember that thread cheesy

Anyhoo, the official Judges are Orikinla, Tgirl4real, Mynd_44, Rocktation, Coogar, Masterpiecer. Not all of them were available to grade this round. Most of them were busy. But for the subsequent rounds, you'd see them around, and they would probably give their expert advise as well. This is just the preliminary stage. Thanks

LiteratureRe: Nairaland's "The Poet" Competition Season 2 by Cuddlemii(op):
Step 7- Your second post should look like this -->

Designer: [your designer’s name should come in here]

Why did you choose your topic?

What unique experience did you derive from working with a designer?

What were the constraints involved in working in a team?

Tell us everything we need to know about your poem. Sell, and present your poem to us like we are clueless about Literature. Picture us as your audience, and captivate us.

Finally, why did the designer use the designs, pictures, visuals, and every other component of the design?
***You would have to consult with your designer for this part, it must correlate***

The meaning of some of the terms, terminologies, figure of speech and designs, or what they signify.
***This is the best time to address big grammars used in the poem***

In conclusion, what is the message behind your poem?

LiteratureRe: Nairaland's "The Poet" Competition Season 2 by Cuddlemii(op):
