2006-02-20 [Tawnee.]: Thanx I stabbith ye for being polite and helping me understand why some of the better poems might not have won.

2006-02-20 [~*Lonely Wanderer*~]: [Christina Loves Adam] I am wonering the same thing as you....when are they going to give them out...???

2006-02-20 [Teufelsweib]: patience, they will come. it's a lot of work handing all those badges out.

2006-02-20 [Eveningsdawn]: Thanks, Chary! Congrats to the winners.

2006-02-21 [Iseld]: LOL

2006-02-21 [Teufelsweib]: having fun? :P

2006-02-21 [mesaana]: YAY! Only just noticed :)

2006-02-21 [Corazie]: Every single one of the winning poems rhymes >.<' Euughh...

2006-02-21 [Teufelsweib]: read the previous comments and you'll get a right explaination... I would have never really paid attencion to the rhyming of the poems :S

2006-02-21 [Tawnee.]: Write in a Journal......................... i know what your saying... i said the same thing......... it sux

2006-02-21 [True, plain and simple]: To [Corazie] - Pure coincidence. The poems weren't chosen because they had fluent rhyme scheme, rather on overall quality.

2006-02-22 [RiddleRose]: and what's wrong with rhyming? i like it... and all of the poems chosen were great! congrats to all the winners, and good luck next time to all the rest of you! ^.^

2006-02-22 [Christina Loves Adam]: Thanx for telling me I will be sure to check it out and show support for the winners

2006-02-22 [immortal daydreams.]: damn...i really wanted to enter. oh well -_-' theres always next year

2006-02-22 [Teufelsweib]: you can always enter your poems on the daily poem, if you don't want to wait a year

2006-02-22 [immortal daydreams.]: i entered one....its called 'look what you've done' all i can do is wait now lol

2006-02-27 [mesaana]: [Corazie] - not all of them rhymne. Mine didn't - or at least wasn't supposed to. When it did it was because the word fit, not because they rhymed. Read the poems carefully before you complain with sweeping statments

2006-07-25 [Junko987]: I am SO doing this competition! I need something to get me publicized!!!!!!!!!!!!

2006-07-25 [shotokan_gal]: Well, it won't be open till we're nearing the next valentines day ;) The next seasonal competition will probably be the Halloween one in October.

2007-01-20 [Linderel]: [shotokan_gal]: Haha, the perils of copy+pasting. Thanks for noticing that. xD

2007-01-20 [shotokan_gal]: Hehe ;)
