Indeed, more than Ludens thought. Heh, more than I thought...

Also, it's "august", not "augustus".

Corrected, thanks. Maybe I was thinking about the etymology of the word :hide: .

Yes, my estimation of the number of entries was very much off. Glad that it was, though.

Is it considered kosher for a contestant to vote, for their own addition or for the work of others?

Hey - great effort everybody - wish I had entered now.

Let's hope loads of people vote - the effort deserves it. All the authors should vote - they don't have to vote for themselves!!!!!!!

You see, evil poets, how you are torturing one innocent nobleman. It is not honourable and fair. Better call me on duel* but to choose the best poem... difficult, almost impossible. :wall: **

* I have several retainers hiding in the bushes. :sneaky:

** Yet I made higly subjective choice... But it was not easy :bow:

P.S. I am really happy I did not participate. Why?

I am bad poet, esp. bad poet in English

I can't create hidden polls. TosaInu can, but that means I'd have to wait until he gets on-line before opening the poll and announcing the winner. I thought it more important for the poll to be up for the better part of the weekend than for it to be hidden.

No, I didn't vote since I know who the competitors are. A second poll has been opened to decide the winner.
