    Hardly genious.

    There would be way too long of a list, and I don't know if those contest winners are deleted after a certain amount of time.
    I'm not sure if you can look at all previous existing winners now, but I suppose there could be pages that you could observe on your own, without there being a link to the present winners.
    But personally, I'm not sure if that much work is worth it.

    What I do think is a good idea, is marking the poems that have won past contests with a "W" award, or a star or something (W would stand for "winner" or "weekly poem contest).

    I suggested that once, Kaitlin... Of course, I got the idea, like, the day after Janis decided to take a year vacation (exaggerating). Oh well... It's a good idea, no matter who thought of it.

    Good call. Provided the system that decides the winners is as fair as reasonably possible, which at present, is not.

    At the moment, the mods pick 3 poems a week and submit them to Dainz, who then picks the winners. Now, if the mods were to collectively vote on the poems selected, Dainz included, then that would be better i think.

    But still, top thought.

    Kevin and Kaitlin, I agree with you both...I've wanted to see all the past winners but there isn't a way currently! I have all the e-mails for like a year back when i subscribed to the thing, so I guess I have some of them but not the ones before I started getting the 'weekly" newsletter which isn't always so weekly anymore...
