I am, too! We're going from 24-1 (24 being the best, most points, 1 scoring the lowest)... and so far with two judges, it could be anyone's game.

That's a big possible range of points! So, someone could get 3 points, and another person could, theoretically, get 72 points. Haha. It will be interesting to see whether the judges agree on poems. One outlier could really swing the results one way or another.

Yep... It's pretty interesting to tally up the votes so far. Normally its not such a big swing.. but with so many poems.. I didn't want to do each poem a vote out of ten. And the points will be accumulated.. so it could be anyone.

My third judge is having computer issues, so they're going to get their points to me soon and then the comments will come a day or two later (its either this or we wait a day or two for it all :D)

Yeah I was going to have a smaller amount.. but with four rounds and needing the last round to have three, this is how it has to go.

It's been approximately 39 hours. How dare you make people wait so long! ; ) Ha, even if they get up on Sunday, that's still pretty short compared to some contests.
