POETRY CONTEST '07

Lets Break the silence hubbers.........!
This time i have two judges to decide.Don't worry.
If anyone can suggest or sponsor other judges,no problem.Lemme kickstart the Hubbers poetry contest(English and Tamil seperately)07 with utmost pleasure.

This time we'll decide the topics till the end of this month and carefully go about the regulations of the game too(I request the moderators of this section to make it a sticky as before not just to attract attention).I'll reveal who the two judges are when we decide about the topics.One is a poet and the other a novelist/essayist.

All except one.......what bout the prizes?
Every one of your suggestions are most welcome.

This gestation period

Has been too long a thing Sir

Right or wrong ?

Apologies friends on the delays in announcing Poetry contest 06 results. Initially the plan was: Venkiraja will manage the contest but due to unavoidable circumstances he couldn't and the task came to me. It's been in the backburner for quite sometime but excuses aside, I'll try to get things moving and announce the results soon. Promise to do it before the 2007 contest closes :) Keep your fingers crossed. You may be the one walking away with the book prizes!! Good luck all..

Fingers are closed firmly for quite a long time! Hub book prizes are are precious than Booker prize!!! :lol:

Listen lemme make this clear......I'm not responsible for anything that has happened....i can make arrangements for anything thats gonna happen this time.....as there is very little response this year i request guys to inform about their response to the contest 08.....Since last time i got several responses for topics and stuff i was interested in informing mods and promotng the thread.This time guys rarely seem to check the forum and posts and i'm afraid it won't be nice to just keep the contest going and call the judge to choose with very little entries.I take the pride in informing guys that the judge who was to be called was Poet.Kugai.Ma.Pugazhendhi.

I did not want to poll the contest os it'll not fit the bill.To be right in some other way,i had a judge,a government officer in charge of தமிழ் வளர்ச்சித் துறை,Mr.Ko.Visayaragavan to judge the contest.I remember sending a pm to RR sir deciding everything.....true....if u wish ask RR sir,i told him again and again,but since he told he'll make necessary arrangements to decide it all and distribute prizes(i dont have bucks for prizes,RR sir told he'll despatch em to addresses,just decided the prizes though)I don't blame him,but i was helpless.....Pls understand.This year if the contests should start and end,the interested guys can p.m me about the contests regarding their interest,type of topics,decisions or whatever they wish to.I might give the topics as soon as i recive the anticipated response.Sorry for whatever that has happened. :D

I tried my level best,
To put my thoughts in jest.
But the Raja felt very bad
And is gonna hunt for my head.
