The Games (Poetry Olympics)

Example

Dillinger stringing three haikus together was a great idea.
How did you think of it?

Forgive the poor impersonations, maybe this won't work perhaps each team will have a thread with their name, questions and comments are posted there.

you bring out the best in me UP....you're so fiiiiiine

psssst....you left yourself wide open for that one UP
 
let's try it and see

It's fairly straight forward I guess...

As to the poem -- do we post that here also? As in, do I post the first stanza in a message here and then wicked adds to it here? Or do we work on it, send it around, and then post it in its entirety?

Savage Kitten, were I a Floridian and privy to the coming gathering there, I might be able to attest to that undeniable fact. As it stands I am left to my own devices.

Drake no one posts the poem. It is passed on to each team member by PM. You are first in your group so you will PM it to REDWAVE who will add his stanza and PM it to WickedEve. Wicked will add her stanza and then (under the team name) submit the poem to the new poems list at the stated time. With the exception of the final member of each team no one will see the entire poems until they make the list. I am asking the last member to not revel or post the finished poems before they are visible on the new poem's list.

Let's Roll!

I'm rarin' to go, and I'm proud to be associated with two such fine writers as Drake and Wicked Eve. Let's go for the gold, gang! One question, UP-- do we all get the same title, like daughter said, or does each team get a different title? Inquiring minds want to know.
 
This sounds like a great game.

Someone should start one for stories too. :)

Going for the gold

REDWAVE,

All titles will be posted Sunday. It would appear fate has been kind to your team. Ahhh but the pressures of high expectations I suggest you watch out for the sleepers. Ultimately the votes will decide the most popular. As to the best, well that is subjective of course. Though as new poems on the list all are available to artistic scrutiny WickedEve and other may have their hands full.

U.P.
 
P.B.

Sounds like a good idea to me, say 1200 words total story length,
400 per author.

Mmmm or maybe something like 3000 words total length, but each author does 500 words at a time. So it would go around twice. :) just a thought... I'm sure there a many different ways to make it work. Could do several different types in fact... short and descriptive, medium lenght with more story and character development, and maybe a marathon type story. Like I said, just some ideas. :)

I'm very much looking forward to this.. it should be fun... and I am THRILLED to be on the same team with two hot sexy babes like Perky_Baby and tigerjen...

I do have to admit to being a bit confused by the whole Team Name/Password deal - it actually sounds more confusing then helpful - but I'm willing to try it - however my preference (personally) would just be to post under my own name instead of having to log in and out in order to respond to questions...
 
I hear you Dillinger,

Keep in mind, you're not 21 people. You are (7) teams. Each team is one voice. Dillinger, if you respond under your name in a thread about the poems, readers will have to recall which team and poem you were apart of. If you sign on under your group and respond this way, the reader will be able to more easily recall the poem. Also this should allow conversations to be grouped together by team and make the threads easier to follow and navigate.


Everyone I want to be sure your following the idea. I take it from the lack of pm's I have received everything is fine. I want to make clear that the poems once finnished are not being posted into a thread on the forum. They are being submitted as a poem to the site. Once they make their way to the new poems list members will be able to vote on them as they do any other poem.

U.P.
 
When you put it that way, UP - it makes sense... I'm game to try it.
 
seeking verification UM

If I am understanding correctly, the Bad2Verse team will have its own thread, but instead of each team member posting comments to the thread, each member - using their password - will 'edit' questions and comments onto the single post of the Bad2Verse thread. Is that correct UM? or, Will each team have its own post on this thread, and then 'edit' in their comments? Can erosman start that thread, or post for Bad2Verse? or, Will that be provided by the moderator?
 
Let the Games begin!

Thank you for the sweet compliment.....let's rock and
kick some a-s-s! :D

erosman,

Each team having their own thread is the way to go. This thread will not be up once the poems make it to the list.

I will post a comment thread for each team. But first we have to wait until we can see the finished poem.

Good luck

U.P.
 
another question

Can I send my completed poem on as soon as I'm done? Or do I have to wait until the next day (thinking of time zone issues here too) so that every poet gets the same amount of time?

Drake
 
go team CC

We're so close to the starting gun, it's getting nerve racking :)

I'm looking forward to reading all the poems. Every team has great writers in it (not that they have a chance against Consenting Couplets of course :p ) and the combinations of different styles should prove absolutely fascinating.

Drake
 
Drake,

You can send it as soon as your done. It will be interesting to see what you poets come up with.

U.P.
 
Did we all get the same poem title or does each team have a different one?

Because I've got a question about the title I was sent - I PM'd UP but wondered if I should post the question here - unfortunately I don't know if that's allowed...

So UP - hopefully you'll get online soon and check your PM's because I'm hoping to do my writing this evening since tomorrow might be a VERY busy day at work...
 
Pay Attention, Now

Uhhh, Dillinger, if you check the initial post of this thread, you'll see we all have the same title.

Let the games begin!
 
Well now Redwave... if we have the same title then you should realize that the title we were sent could have two different meanings depending on how you pronounce it... now do I have a choice as to which meaning I decide to use or did UP have a particular meaning in mind?
