Also, as a request, I'd rather my poems not be placed in the upcoming showcase.
I do hope you'll understand.

noooooooo
What a shame, i was really enjoying your poetry.

Here are my judgeing results...I'm doing a lot at once, so I'm simply posting the numbers I come to, otherwise this post won't fit due to paragraph form of my usual explanations...fuck, I'm supposed to...fine but small ones that are going to look weak anyway...don't judge me...I was in Canada...and if I'm doing these all at once (most) I'm not going to type down all my thoughts like I usually do.

By the way...sorry if I'm a bitch...I take apart poetry, also, the reasons I wrote down were made rushed...because I went back and did them later so I'd already lost my train of thought on it a bit.

Alex000 and theslimer3 get 0s...apparently.


Dawsoe20 Entries:
P1:2/5
P2:3/5
P3:5/5
P4:5/5

Could use some flow work, and, the first one is sorta weak. Not because of length, but because it's not really hitting me.


hyuugaitachi007 Entries
P1:1/5
P2:2/5
P3:2/5
P4:2/5

Your theme poem concentrates too much on ryhming and not enough on finding real meaning, the otehrs do the same a bit, and the last isn't strong enough.


Purples Entries
P1:4/5
P2:2/5
P3:4/5
P4:3/5

The first poem does a good job in creating a different style. The second poem especially needed work.


hebib_uchiha Entries
P1:1/5
P2:2/5
P3:1/5
P4:2/5

Grammer has died today a bit man, and some of it doesn't really make sense to me, partially because of the grammer.

Blake Entries
P1:2/5
P2:2/5
P3:3/5
P4:3/5

These poems somehow seem to be missing expression, they just seem...off to me.

Ecchi-Bunneh Entries
P1:4/5
P2:3/5
P3:5/5
P4:1/5

I can't really get into the idea during the second poem...it's too attention grabbing through words and not meaning. The last one seems rushed and as if you were just trying to push a poem out.

Pilaf Entr9ies
P1:0/5
P2:3/5
P3:3/5
P4:0/5

The first and last are lies...lies

A big, HARD, man Entries
P1:4/5
P2:3/5
P3:4/5
P4:5/5

I certainly enjoed them, but the flow is off sometimes a bit.

Takumi Entries
P1:3/5
P2:2/5
P3:2/5
P4:5/5

The first one doesn't show me things because I'm against the meaning, it also seems a bit forced. The last was a great improvement.

Mono Entries
P1:4/5
P2:4/5
P3:3/5
P4:5/5

Well done, it seems that you really made sure to submit meaningful work, the majority that comes off is just flow or strength.

Fallen_Moon Entries
P1:4/5
P2:3/5
P3:4/5
P4:3/5

Best haiku I've seen in this tourny (so far, a few to go). You sorta suck for making me translate those...a second time XD.


Ravino Entries
P1:3/5
P2:5/5
P3:3/5
P4:2/5

I enjoyed the strength of your second entry, it was a bit cliche, but in a good way ya know? Where did that go for the next poem?


Kairyu Entries
P1:3/5
P2:2/5
P3:3/5
P4:3/5

Meaning and stength are what need some work...nuff said.

Itachi3334 Entries
P1:4/5
P2:3/5
P3:4/5
P4:4/5

The first is pretty, and I usually don't rate these kind of poems high.

So far it looks like...Mono, Purples, and Dawsoe will be cleaning up (assuming there aren't any upsets), and we have a little battle going between a Big Hard Man (going to use it until he regrets it) and Ecchi.

:amazed

Reject becomes the number 1 so far
Number 2 goes to Dawsoe20
Mono and Fallen_Moon take a tie for number three

Sorry purples...that was real close

How epic...and thank you to everyone who entered, we hope you've enjoyed this so far and the next will be on its way, after this one ends, of course.
