Thank you for your feedback...I understand a lot of contest rules can be confusing and my writing style doesn't necessarily help (in college, my writing was too garrulous for philosophers!)
- To your first point, I think I wasn't clear about the charity contest and the separateness of the minnow prize pool so we've decided to do away with the prize pool entirely. As you know, there are plenty of poetry contests offering SBD prizes, so ours is the only one where poets are donating, not to a pool, but to a charity
- I think your idea about the winners choosing the charity to support for the next contest is a great idea and keeps wannabe entrants from having to do all the work (finding a charity, writing, etc.)...I'm not sure I understand what you mean about a secret vote...Initially, we were thinking there'd be one Most Charitable, but perhaps there can still be runner-ups
- Got it; resteems and poetsunited.org publications will definitely be awarded too :)
Thanks again @trumanity !
