A friendly reminder of several of the rules posted by host Lobo:
1. Self nominations are not accepted. The great majority of the competitions here are about spotlighting one's own work on a particular topic or theme. This is a chance to nominate that poem that you wish you had written but some other great talent here beat you to it.
2. Please limit your nominations to TWO poems.
You can nominate a single poem for two different poets; but the nomination maximum remains at TWO (no matter how many pseudonyms they have). The majority of competitions on DUP cap nominations at one or two poems so there's no need to go beyond that.

I think this honor is not mine to receive. Unless the award is for nominating the winner. Layla's poem, "Patterns" that I nominated, is the winner. I don't believe any of mine were in the running. I haven't scanned the pages so I'm not certain, however, her poem is highlighted with an orange background. Am I wrong?
