Stanza Reason Guidelines
Rules
1. Each month will have its own unique theme and/or restrictions, so pay attention!
2. Winners will be judged via panel, therefore, all poetry should contain forty (40) lines or fewer.
3. The judges will be as impartial as humanly possible. Please do not contest the judges' decisions! If you absolutely must, you'd better be polite about it.
4. Prizes for winners are under consideration, but may not go any further than bragging rights for now.
5. You may only enter one poem per month, and it must be uploaded into your writings on WritersCo to be eligible!
6. Poetry cannot contain unnecessary swear words. I define necessity here, end of discussion. ^_^
7. Poetry can be disqualified for poor grammar and/or content.
8. Each poet can only enter one poem per month.
9. Each poem can only be entered once in a lifetime.
10. If someone manages to win two months in a row, that poet will not be allowed to enter for a month.
Submission Instructions
1. Go to the wikipage
SR Honorarium.
2. Find the heading for 'current entrants' and place a link to the poem you wish to enter, as follows:
1. [Linktopoem @ writings]
[
Membername]
2. [Linktopoem @ writings]
[
Membername]
3. Make absolutely sure that you have read the rules! If your poem breaks any of the rules or doesn't follow the month's specific theme, it will be disqualified and a replacement will be selected.
4. No confirmation will be sent if your poem is acceptable, for time reasons. If your poem is disqualified, you will be sent hate mail. No, you won't, but you will be notified.
Final Note
This is not an official WritersCo contest. The will of the judges is law, and not to be questioned unless you truly feel that you've been unfairly dealt with.
Failure to recognize the rules and proper submissions etiquette will get you banned from the contest permanently, and placed on a blacklist for all the world to poke at. Questions are to be sent to [
Mister Saint].
