Yep; you're right.  I just checked. Now that IS a violation of competition guidelines.

Someone really screwed this one up.

Hullo, the comp is run by Lobo, there's no way he is biased.  having read the guidance it would appear any one poet can only have two poems nominated in one month period. So perhaps your success is the downfall


In all honesty I think we'll have to wait for Lobo to log on to find out what the craic is

Craic, Boybrains nominated my poem “Dear Poet” which has also gone missing from the thread.

I only nominated two people... Ethan only nominated two people... it’s not offensive... I don’t get it. 🤷‍♀️

I’m not having a go, I’m just like... what gives?! 🤨

Actually, no - The limit is on the number of nominations - not how many each poet can have nominated by their peers. And, no one is blaming SanPedro.  So stop projecting.

Please note the following when making nominations:

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.

No DUPLICATES. If someone nominates the same poem the entry will be deleted. If you like it that much wait and vote for it!

Any genre except erotica or pornography. This is a Facebook feature and we must adhere to their guidelines.  

BIG CHANGE:

ALL POETS ARE ELGIBLE AT THIS TIME, INCLUDING PREVIOUS WINNERS!  


 
I was a moderator once, I helped developed and implement this competition.  The only rules that have been changed is that members can win more than once a year ( which I wish they would rescind honestly, to give more members a chance to win ).

I'm not having a go, either.  I am earnestly attempting to understand what the hell? I am glad I did bring this to the public because I am not the only one.

OK, so fairest thing I could do at this stage is suspend the vote. I'm positive nothing untoward has happened. the man is a pillar

When he gets back he can have a look through and fix any errors

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

Quite frankly, SanPedro never crossed my mind as having hidden them.  I wasn't certain what happened.   But didn't you say earlier  that you had hidden one that Johnny nominated?  Or did I misunderstand that?

Yes,  you misunderstood. I said I hid his post on this thread because it named your poem.  comp is anon so it was unfair

that said, I I think you posted the whole poem on this thread too so it'll probably be disqualified. up to Lobo, I guess

again, I'm  sorry for your inconvenience

Actually

Would you all mind terribly if I hide this thread altogether and just leave Lobo a note?
