2004-02-29 [Lerune]: I just added the Daily Poem for the day, and noticed when I went to leave a message in the user's guestbook, that the guy hadn't been here for about a month...but the poem is still much deserving of the recognition... Too late to undo it, but -- just out of curiosity (if I need to help again) what are the general guidelines on that?
2004-02-29 [Calico Tiger]: Doesn't matter if they haven't been here in a year ^_^ If they submitted a poem, it's theirs and we like it, it can be chosen, guestbook message still given and badge given as per the number of poems, etc.... ^_^
2004-03-06 [Ocean Dreaming]: Alright, I THINK that's an alphabetical order. Anybody willing to explain to me how to find out who the people who changed username are?
2004-03-13 [Cristina]: That is almost a lost cause shanra... just wait for the artist to claim it him/herself...
2004-03-13 [Ocean Dreaming]: Hmm... I once changed usernames and data from that could be retrieved though. It just looks so... faulty with the usernames that were changed. Maybe we should change all the working ones to their member number. If I recall that changes the name if the user changes it...
2004-03-14 [Cristina]: *shakes head* then it wouldn't be the hall of fame anymore with all those numbers that nobody recognices... we just put them in alphabetical order from time to time when somebody decides to get a new name and that's all. The not working usernames are my fault, I made that username list a loooooooooooon
2004-03-15 [Ocean Dreaming]: The numbers don't show up at all, it converts to the username.
2004-03-15 [Nita]: Like Cristina said, the links got broken because she kept the names on her computer for a while...
2004-03-15 [Cristina]: I thought that you wanted to put the numbers only, with no links... *points at Nita's comment* It was my fault, nothing to do with Elftown and the way we keep this wiki working.
2004-03-15 [Cristina]: Names have been put in alphabetical order again.
2004-03-24 [Mar_D]: can anyone tell what the **** means behind a name??
2004-03-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: It's to show those people have been featured more than once on the Main Street. ^_^
2004-03-24 [Mar_D]: ah, yes, tx then I'll put more to enlarge my row of***
2004-03-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: You can't do that without the password. If it's incorrect you should tell me or Cristina about it, as well as how many stars you should have.
2004-03-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: A hex on me today! I swear there is a hex on me!
2004-03-24 [Cristina]: *nods* Me thinks so too.
2004-03-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: I demand the chance to do today over!
2004-03-24 [Cristina]: *laughs* Care to expand that thought? :-D
2004-03-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: Only if you don't mind hearing about miserable days where everything goes totally wrong.
2004-03-25 [Cristina]: sure! :-P I had one too *hugs*
2004-03-29 [Ocean Dreaming]: *hugs back* Well, mine turned out alright enough in the end, thankfully.
2004-03-30 [Cristina]: *hugs back* and I was on my normal double deluxe grumpy self as some of my friends call it :-P
2004-03-30 [Ocean Dreaming]: Well I can't say I didn't end my day that way. It just turned out alright the day afterwards.
2004-04-10 [Cristina]: List has been re-alphabetise
2004-04-11 [Cristina]: Ok I've fried what I like to call my brain in trying to find out who the "unknown" users where, how and process can be found in Cristina's plotting place gonna post now the names found. [Kealdra Rean] is [Kealdra FyreMaster] , [Saigen] and [Sephora] are [Charcoal] , [Dragonwings Vegetu] is [Kuramii], [RiDdled] is [Christina Genesis] , [The Artist Formerly known As Me] is [ShadowRobber] and [Kathy Anderson] is [Mirime]
2004-04-20 [Ocean Dreaming]: Maybe we should start considering splitting the page up like most of the other title pages?..
2004-04-24 [Cristina]: *rises eyebrow* not yet, compare this with the daily_poem page! It's not really that long...
2004-04-24 [Cristina]: The user [der hardcore] has been removed from this page. His badges have also been taken away from him. Reason? Taking credit for poems he did not do. Shame on him!!
2004-04-24 [Ocean Dreaming]: It's no good comparing it to the daily poem pages. The only time they get split up is when the pages are full. I was comparing the page to other 'name collecting' pages. ^-^;;
2004-04-25 [Cristina]: :-P I know but it makes our life easier the way it is right now... without being split *pokes nose and hides*
2004-05-03 [Kiddalee]: What do the stars next to a person's name mean?
2004-05-03 [Ocean Dreaming]: It means they've been featured more than once. ^-^
2004-05-05 [Doormat]: you should make a special page for daily poems....then watch them battle out in a poll for poetriatic superiourity in a poetry battle to the death..
2004-05-05 [Ocean Dreaming]: *rae* Don't we already have a wiki-page for that? Not an official one like this, but still a wiki-page and a very popular one at that?
2004-05-05 [Kiddalee]: So 2 stars means 2 poems? Or does 2 stars mean 3 poems, since 1 star would have to mean 2?
2004-05-05 [Ocean Dreaming]: Two stars means two poems, I think.
2004-05-05 [Doormat]: its poetry dueling arena...but we should make a special one for daily poems only :D
2004-05-07 [Kiddalee]: If only [Cristina] would tell me. Hmmm, if 2 stars means 2 poems, then that means there is no need for anybody to have one star.
2004-05-08 [Ocean Dreaming]: Your name here indicates one poem, afaik. So two stars is three poems.
2004-05-09 [Starna]: ....I only have had 2 poems up, but have 2 stars indicating 3 poems. Also... should there not be a link to this page on the Daily Poem page? I thought there used to be one, but there is not currently a link there. Confused me, and I had to search and search to get back here.
2004-05-10 [Ocean Dreaming]: Disagreement between me and True. We're waiting for Cristina to return and explain the whole star system to us. Dunno about the link. Never saw it :/ Will ask Cristina. ^-^
2004-05-11 [Anonymous]: Name=1 poem= Green Badge; 1star=2 poems; 2stars= 3 poems = Coloured Badge; 3stars= 4 poems; 4stars= 5 poems= Master Poets. I think it is that way. The "*" are just a way to know easily how many poems a person has ;)
2004-05-14 [Kiddalee]: ... I don't have a coloured badge...
2004-05-14 [Ocean Dreaming]: Can I ask you if you remember what poems were featured on the Daily Poem? And if you do what the titles were?
2004-05-15 [Kiddalee]: Well, whaddaya know. I did a search and it says that only 2 of them got in: Happy, poem#39, modded by [Mistaya], dated as 2003-02-02; Weep Diamonds (or For Those Who Weep Diamonds), poem#15, modded by [Mistaya], dated as 2003-01-03, when my nickname was still Agapé (and if you like I can send you a forum posting proving that my name used to be Agapé); Then maybe I shouldn't have 2 stars which it seems ~would~ otherwise give me a coloured badge...
2004-05-15 [Ocean Dreaming]: Naw... I think the research for who was who is concluded already ;) Ah well... It'll be sorted out. *points up* Like said True and I had some confusion about the matter.
2004-05-15 [Kiddalee]: Some 2-starrers have coloured badges, and some don't.
2004-05-15 [Ocean Dreaming]: *points up again* It'll be sorted out, just not now. I have no clue how.
2004-07-12 [True, plain and simple]: The star-system will be worked out within the next few days, when I have time to check all of the poets. (Just as a general note)
2004-09-03 [Anonymous]: A link to the master poets wiki should be added :) It used to be here before ;)
2004-09-21 [Young J.C.]: I want to post a poem!
2004-09-21 [Ocean Dreaming]: Then be patient, read the Daily Poem FAQ and go to the correct page. Not neccesarily in that order.
2004-10-04 [Young J.C.]: What is with the big long list of names?
2004-10-04 [Ocean Dreaming]: It's a list of all the people that have been featured on the Daily Poem.
2004-10-04 [Young J.C.]: The people that has at least posted a poem?
2004-10-04 [Ocean Dreaming]: No. The people whose poem was(/poems were) featured on Mainstreet.
2004-10-04 [Young J.C.]: Oh, okay. Thank you.
2005-02-10 [pretty in blood]: how do i get a badge? i added my poem to the list...''/
2005-02-10 [Ocean Dreaming]: You get it featured. Please read the Daily Poem FAQ. ^-^
2005-02-14 [Ylaraniala Majere]: WHEE! I'm up there! ^_^
2005-02-26 [hidden_nightmare]: Sweet! I'm on the list! that's awesome.
2005-05-18 [Hackworth]: I don't remember submitting a poem that made it onto the featured page... I've searched my messages and guestbook entries to see if I was notified. And I couldn't find anything. I'd like to know which poem it was that made it onto the front page, if it's at all possible. If it helps, I know that I made it on as [black pen], and which poem it was. But not for [Hackworth].
2005-05-18 [True, plain and simple]: Someone's name may have changed, and the last time the page was editted Elftown defaulted to your name instead. I'll look into it later.
2005-05-18 [Hackworth]: Nevermind... I found it :P No worries!
2005-05-18 [True, plain and simple]: Oh, OK. ;)
2005-05-18 [Hackworth]: It ended up being a poem I submitted for the Halloween poem competition, but was too long for consideration. At some point after Halloween (2003, I think), they put it on the front page. Confusing, but it made me happy.
2005-05-21 [Mikhul, the Bard]: I am the daily poet today! Im so happy. I submitted that thing a while back, though...I forgot about it...hahah!
2005-11-25 [Violinist.Noir.]: Are you still going to do the daily poems ^~^
2005-11-28 [Jay Ladlehaus]: Yes
2006-01-19 [FrostFinger]: if anyone can help me, any way I can find out what poems of mine did make the daily poem? Hard to keep track of em all
2006-01-19 [Sunrose]: If any of your poems were featured, you would've been warned with a guestbookmessa
2006-04-30 [LittleEmoGirl]: How do I get to post a poem?? cause i have a couple of good ones
2006-04-30 [Jay Ladlehaus]: Daily Poem. Make sure to read the Daily Poem Format before submitting.
2006-05-14 [Zab]: (just fixing a few names that wasn't in alphabetic order :)
2006-05-14 [Linderel]: I was going to get to that, eventually (held back by the fact that the next time someone changes their name, we can say goodbye to alphabetical order again)... But thanks. :D
2006-05-14 [Zab]: No problem, I was bored and wanted to take your work..>D I mean.. ^___^ I won't chat on this page :P (But there still are disorder! :O People shouldn't change names..)
2006-05-14 [zepher]: Yeah, sorry about that...
2006-05-26 [Lepellier]: wow there are alot of poem submiters... why is it that some of the members say homany they have had on the daily poem's but others dont. (i do mean only to those that have been on tehre more than once that is
2006-05-26 [Lepellier]: wow there are alot of poem submiters... why is it that some of the members say homany they have had on the daily poem's but others dont. (i do mean only to those that have been on tehre more than once that is)
2006-05-26 [Linderel]: Well, it's because the ones who don't have a number beside their name have only had their work featured once.
2006-05-26 [Diiwica]: ... hmm, i havde submited more than one and it still says i have only submited one... but he lol
2006-05-26 [True, plain and simple]: Only featured members are put on the list...
2006-05-27 [Diiwica]: I know, I ws just comenting that i have been featured two times, Didnt say anything about not having it posted that i have been 2 times because i never really thought about it until it was mentioned by [Lepellier]
2006-05-27 [Linderel]: There is a number beside your nickname, so I don't exactly see what you're talking about now. o.O You're in the wrong place on the list, though. *edits*
2006-05-28 [Diiwica]: Eh some times i dont even know myself, But i just mentioned it because it was on my mind and all. I dont really see that it matters any if it says on my page how many time i have been on, i mean if members really want to know then they can take the time and come here and ead. but since [Lepellier] mentioneed it i just though i would add a though. i probably said that last comment when in kind of a daze any ol way
2006-05-28 [Linderel]: Ahh, you mean in your badge slot. Sometimes we put the number there, sometimes we don't. There's not a rule about it. At least I don't think there is. :P
2006-05-28 [True, plain and simple]: No, there isn't. :P
2006-07-27 [meg_bb7_10]: Are you
2006-07-27 [True, plain and simple]: We still are doing the Daily Poem. It was last updated (at the time of this writing) yesterday.
2006-08-18 [Corazie]: Is there any way to see past Daily Poems?
2006-08-18 [Corazie]: Apart from clicking the "More Poems" link... Or a way to find the ones done by a specific writer?
2006-08-18 [True, plain and simple]: You can, of course, search in the poems posted on Mainstreet. But if you want to search for poems written by a certain member, you'll need to use the member number instead of the username. :)
2006-08-23 [meg_bb7_10]: thank you
2006-08-29 [EmeraldGrizzly]: Since I got a poem posted on mainstreet, I can now post enter another, yes?
2006-08-29 [True, plain and simple]: Yes.
2006-08-30 [EmeraldGrizzly]: Thanks :)
2006-09-17 [RiddleRose]: wheee! thank you!!
2007-04-20 [Olwen]: What's this page all about?! Im not trying to be ignorant, I genuinly don't know! Thanks =)
2007-04-20 [Linderel]: This is a list of people who have had their poems featured 1 to 4 times. Those with 5 or more poems featured are listed on the Master Poets page.
2007-06-26 [Blakkduv]: I'm a daily poet. I have all 4 poems up. I've done 5. May I please have my name added. :) thank you.
2007-06-26 [Linderel]: I do fear you have misunderstood the function of this page. This here is a list of the people whose work has been featured. Yours hasn't. Therefore, you are not one of the Daily Poets.
2007-06-26 [Blakkduv]: oh hehe.
2007-12-13 [dj-sean]: How do I join?
2007-12-14 [Linderel]: You can become a Daily Poet by submitting your work to the Daily Poem and eventually getting it featured on the Mainstreet by one of the Daily Poem Bosses.
2008-01-20 [Nite_Owl]: Sorry Linderel. Got caught right in the middle of trying to update this thing ^^'
2008-01-20 [Linderel]: S'okay, it happens. :P
2008-03-18 [xX-Sarahanne-Xx]: Uhh, yea Id like to become a daily poet,...But I dont know how to come about doing such a thing....
Help?
2008-03-18 [Linderel]: *points a couple of comments up*
2008-03-19 [xX-Sarahanne-Xx]: ah I see,
Thanks!
2008-05-16 [SilverFire]: O.o Have you guys given any thought to ways to make this page shorter? It's so big at the moment. O.O
2008-05-17 [Nite_Owl]: Hmm....it is getting rather long, isn't it? Maybe we could divide it by name, in alphabetical order or something like that. Better ask Linderel though :)
2008-05-17 [SilverFire]: Perhaps something like Donors of Art would work.
2008-05-17 [Linderel]: Possibly. Though then it would be even more work to keep it alphabetical xD
2008-05-17 [SilverFire]: I don't know how you do it at the moment, so ignore this if it's how you do it already, but if you you'd something like Microsoft Excel it would be relatively quick even with the separate pages. Just copy and paste the list of names, open Excel, highlight a column in Excel, and paste. It'll put every name in a separate cell. There's then a button you can use that will put the whole column in alphabetical order. Presto, done. :P All you do then is copy & paste back to the wikis.
2008-05-18 [Linderel]: True.
For some reason I prefer manual labour o_O
2008-05-18 [SilverFire]: Er... :P
2008-05-19 [Linderel]: Yea, I'm weird :P
2008-07-08 [Mortified Penguin]: [Rice] seems to be misplaced in the S's.
2008-07-08 [Linderel]: I hate people changing their names. *sigh*
2008-07-08 [Nite_Owl]: Yeah, I try to find some of them each time I edit the page for something new. I don't usually catch all of them though. I'll give it a good look through next time :)
2008-07-24 [Artsieladie]: I do it the same way, too, [Linderel]. ;P Loooong list! ;)
2008-08-08 [Easterling]: I'm on the list! I feel so proud.
2008-11-10 [Silver Moon]: how do you enter for the daily poem?
2008-11-10 [Linderel]: Go to Daily Poem, be sure to read all of the instructions and rules carefully, and submit your piece(s). :)
2008-11-10 [Silver Moon]: ok thanks
2008-11-14 [Silver Moon]: when does it close?
2008-11-14 [Linderel]: Let's get this straight... The Daily Poem is not a contest. It is an ongoing feature. Therefore, it does not close, but rather is open for submissions all year round.
2008-11-15 [Silver Moon]: ok sorry
2008-12-05 [Clair De Lune]: which poem of mine was up... i want to throw it a party lol
2008-12-05 [Linderel]: You'll have received a guestbook notice that included the title of the piece. ;3
2008-12-09 [Clair De Lune]: thank you
2008-12-21 [Rice]: I've had two poems up, but it doesn't say it next to my name. Do I add that myself or do I just wait for a poem boss to do so?
2008-12-21 [Linderel]: Indeed. I must've forgotten to edit when I featured the second one, thank you for pointing that out.
And no, you don't add anything to this page yourself - you wouldn't be able to. :P
2008-12-21 [Rice]: Oh okay, ah thankyou kindly for adding it :D
2009-07-04 [Junko987]: I'M FINALLY ON MAIN STREET!!!!!!!!
2010-01-08 [Rice]: I've been featured three times I believe???
2010-01-08 [Linderel]: Nope, you haven't. :P Contest wins don't count.
2010-01-09 [Rice]: No I know..I swear I had three times o_o
Guess not...maybe Im getting confused with the fact I have submitted quite a few poems to it. XD Sorry DOH!
2010-04-08 [*Phoenix*]: YAY! I'm a daily poet! and right after my bday! Woot!
2010-04-08 [Flisky]: Well...Happy birthday and congrats!
2010-04-09 [*Phoenix*]: Thanks!
2010-09-12 [Mrs Vicious.]: erm... how do you join? can I join?
2010-09-12 [Flisky]: Go to the Daily Poem and submit a poem. ^_^
2010-09-12 [Mrs Vicious.]: WOO! thank you Flisky.
2010-09-13 [Linderel]: Of course, you have to have the work submitted there featured on Main Street before you make it to this list. ;)
2010-09-13 [Mrs Vicious.]: ahhhh cool beans. so I just wait then?
2010-09-13 [Linderel]: Basically, yes.
2010-09-13 [Mrs Vicious.]: ahhh thats ok.
2010-10-12 [~*~Music Junkie~*~]: Rock on! Are you serious?!!!!!
2010-10-12 [Flisky]: Yes, we are serious. :)
2010-10-14 [~*~Music Junkie~*~]: *bows* Well i am flatterd someone finds my work worthy of the daily feature. =) Thanks so much!!
2010-11-13 [Majestical]: Thank you to everyone at the Daily Poem. I was pleasantly surprised when my poem was picked. Have a great day!
2010-12-27 [Mrs Vicious.]: OMG OMG OMGGGG!!! I actually made it! dear lord!
2010-12-27 [Flisky]: ^_^
2010-12-27 [Mrs Vicious.]: Print screening the shit out of that!
2011-02-22 [Majestical]: Thank you to the daily poem once again :)
2011-03-10 [kians mummy]: how do i get my poems up
2011-03-10 [Linderel]: Go to Daily Poem and post them there. Then you wait. Do make sure to read the rules first, though.
2011-03-23 [kians mummy]: whats the guarentee of my poem being featured
2011-03-23 [Linderel]: Well... there isn't a 100% guarantee, really. The best you can do is make sure your grammar and spelling are alright. Make sure you submit something you like, as opposed to merely posting for the sake of posting something. And then you'll just have to hope that one of the Bosses likes what you've written, or thinks other people might.
2011-03-23 [kians mummy]: [Flisky] hates my guts
2011-03-23 [kians mummy]: so i've got no chance
2011-03-23 [Flisky]: I never hate. Ever. I just do not appreciate taking time out of my life to answer your questions just to be called a selfish waste of time.
2011-03-23 [Thunder Cid]: Also remember that there are two bosses so if one doesn't like the poem you still have another boss who may like it enough to feature.
2011-03-23 [kians mummy]: [Flisky] i apolergise, i'm going through a hard time as my auntie alice died on the same day so i was a bit naggy
2011-03-23 [kians mummy]: please unblock me and can we start a fresh
2011-03-23 [Flisky]: You are unblocked. But let us not let it happen again. ^_^
2011-05-23 [hanhepi]: holy cow, i will never, ever, ever gripe about having to alphabetize et pollers ever again. this has got to be the longest list on elftown. :/
2011-05-23 [Mortified Penguin]: Well, there's also my hitlist. It's almost as long.
2011-07-21 [kians mummy]: [silent_voice] is in the v section
2011-07-21 [Flisky]: That is because Elftowner's often change their user names. We sort through and alphabetize it when it becomes a problem.
Thank you for letting us know.
2011-07-21 [kians mummy]: Ok, no worries :)
2011-08-05 [kians mummy]: I have a question, how many names are on here all together? :~)
2011-08-05 [hanhepi]: my rough estimate: a bazillion. XD
2011-08-05 [kians mummy]: OK lol. :)
2011-08-06 [Mortified Penguin]: Well, there's 507 listed here, but 640 people actually have a Daily Poet badge.
2011-08-06 [kians mummy]: Now thats not right lol :).
Have the Daily poem bosses got it wrong then? :)
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: how'd you come up with 640? does that count the Masters and Grandmasters?
2011-08-06 [Mortified Penguin]: http://www.elf
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: You can't access Elftown because your browser didn't send a session cookie correctly. Try one more time to log in! If that doesn't work make sure cookies are enabled! If you are using Internet Explorer look here!
guess it didn't like me clicking your link like that. doing a search with "DonnorPoem" in the badge area thing did finally bring up 640 members. i'd tried various searches, but guess i either spelled stuff wrong or forgot to set the "Seek among those who have been here since this time ago" section. (and we should probably phrase that section differently, i think)
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: and judging by the lack of [Doormat] and [kamisch] on that list, i'd say it does not include Grandmasters. [*OGD*], [-Orion-], and [Alexi Ice] aren't on it either, so no Masters either.
well crap, that does mean there's a discrepancy. :(
2011-08-06 [iippo]: Yeah the master badges have DonorPoem in the title, not donnor.
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: oh, i see how it is, those of us with less than 5 poems featured don't deserve properly spelled badges! :P ain't that some shit! never been so offended in all my life.
XD
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: it's worse than i thought, not just typoed, but named after the Donnor Party!
2011-08-06 [Linderel]: There is a discrepancy, but I'm afraid that there's nothing much that can be done about it. If you go back far enough in the archive, let's say to before 2005, there'll be entries where the username is a broken link. Unless someone can figure out a way to sort that out, the discrepancy will stay. It also doesn't help that they started handing out badges in December 2003, much later than the feature itself began. So, yeah. Sorry about that, but I have no way to correct it.
2011-08-06 [hanhepi]: that does make fixing it a real pain in the butt. :/
2011-08-06 [Alexi Ice]: Those who have 5 poems featured on Main Street become Master Poets - This might help.
2011-08-06 [kians mummy]: [Linderel] if you can find the link for me, please can you give it to me and I will see if I can sort it for you if you like. :)
2011-08-06 [Flisky]: It's not quite that easy, Sammie. The daily poem has been going since 2002, and to even start trying to fix it you would have to go back to the first one and restart everything.
2011-08-06 [kians mummy]: I can try. :)
2011-08-06 [kians mummy]: I want to help you. :)
2011-08-06 [Linderel]: I've tried to sort it out before. All I got for my efforts was a headache. So no, I don't think you can help. Thanks for the offer, though.
2011-08-06 [kians mummy]: OK then, no worries, if you need a hand with anything else then tell me and I will try to help in any way I can. :)

2012-10-19 [The Only The young]: Hey, I'm new and.... how do I become a daily poet & where do I post? thanks x3
2012-10-19 [wicked fae mage]: You post your poems at the bottom of the page on daily poem. You click edit, and paste your poem below the last entry following the format.
You become a Daily Poet by having your submission chosen by one of the bosses to be featured on Mainstreet. If you need any help, feel free to message me. :)
