Five hundred points is:
5 good reviews of works out of the green room.
4 works if you find them in the green room at 150 a pop.
3 works if you review well and they are older than 72 hrs I think it is.

So a comination of internet problems and faulty time conversions means I am throwing this in now. Whoops.

Thanks for the entries everyone and for those who asked, posting in this thread is entirely acceptable, as is linking to your NaPo. We acknowledge that a lot of poems written in April are works in progress so you don't need to post them to the site.

Judging has commenced and the results will be announced either late today or very early tomorrow.

Know Your Way Home Like the Palm of Your Hand\

The results are now in for the first round! The judges were mostly agreed on their choices, though it did get close a couple of times, but in the end the scores were averaged and a winner was decided!

The poets in bold below were the winners of their round and please see the updated chart for who will be facing who in the second round of April Madness: http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk93 ... b23780.jpg

If you didn't win, don't be disheartened! Our champion last year made a come-back from the Loser's Heat so our winner could be anyone.

Remember, everyone is still in the contest and should therefore post a poem between the 14th and 16th April. Those in the Loser's Heat will be called upon to post a second poem later this week.

Oh well. I couldn't get to the computer yesterday because I was having an amazing experience that took all day.
