I appreciate the kind words but the introduction of this form's praise should be aimed at this month's contest judge. All I do is recruit judges and help if needed

Hi Stan....my comment was not meant to please anyone to pick up points for the contest...it was a genuine intent to express thanks for introducing me to this form ..not as a contestant which I am not...

Since Users are having problem in posting their poem as reported by Feebie, Al and others and since that is preventing Feebie and may be others in posting their contest poem...it would be good if you can extend the last date for submission to a date beyond when the problem is resolved by andrew and team..

let me try to figure out how to do this without having June and July contests overlap.

I suspect there is some contest tab problem. So just post your June contest poem on stream and put ( June Contest) net to title..........stan

I tried saving without changing the tab to contest - i left it as a normal submission and still I seem to be unable to submit anything other than comments on existing poems and replies on forum topics.

Am I doing something wrong?

Yours in Script

Let life be your muse in all you do!!!

folks time to get problem fixed.

The contest will still be extended due to the delays people faced trying to post. There has been enough confusion already without making yet another change.
