A few facts about the contest
- A total of 15 entries were made
- Contest post author rewards were $22.73
- Reward pool contained 20 SBD. Promotion costs were 10 SBD (including bought whalevotes)
A special thank you to @d-pend for his generous donation of an additional (bought) whale vote!
There were so many great entries! As I had a difficult time choosing. Mostly I judged based on the vibes a poem gave me and how well they were relating to the theme. Loved seeing so many enthusiasm towards this contest and being able to take a peek at all the different mindsets out there.
So, will there be a next contest? Probably, but it will take a while before the next one comes up. Depending on how things go I like to host this contest at least a few more times before I switch to another idea I have in mind. So if your interested be sure to follow ;)
A big applause to all the contestants!
P.S. does someone know if there is a tool that lets you see all the old posts (older than 7 days) based only on the tag? Luckily I had all the posts saved on my computer but would be nice to know for future uses!
Thanks for hosting!
Congrats to @outerground and @sumsum! Really cool I won 2nd!!! :-O I love to be inspired by new poetry musings. This is definitely a great contest and I hope you can post it again soon. Don't despair.
Suggestion:
Make future contest prizes less sbd payout, so you can host more frequently! :-) Maybe 5, 3, & 1 sbd prizes? Just a suggestion. This is my third attempt at hosting the poetrydice contest. At first I made my prizes too high and couldn't afford to keep the contest going... The second time I hosted, I made the prizes too small and there was too little participation...XO Hope this helps :-).

Fantastic News..& Thanks Droucil for taking the time and great effort to make Steemit an inspiring and progressive conduit for all types of creativity.
It was a great contest idea and I'm very honoured to have won this prize with my humble poem. All of the submitted poems were both thoughtful and thought provoking and I look forward to seeing the next round if there is one.
Congratulations to all the entrants for being able to express yourself through poetry. Such a valuable communication skill !
and @droucil you have one new loyal follower.. upvoted & resteemed
even more poignant, winning the 10 SBD is that I have literally just paid out 10 SBD to my own #twophotostory challenge winners.. check my wallet you'll see :) spread the love
