how do you choose the weekly poems

Surely you've read the numerous posts about how the contest works now.

If not, then I will say it again. The mods make suggestions. Then Janis and/or Daniz makes the final decision. I beleive there have been winners that the mods didn't suggest, so they obviously look for poems, too.

We do NOT go by rating, or only the highest rated would be there.

I'd be willing to bet your question was rhetorical in the first place.

Yep:
Mods suggest - and some of their suggestions I take. Usually one poem I take from top rated.

Quite simple :)

How do you get the mods to look at your poem? There are some GREAT poems on this site that should be recognized, but aren't... :'(
