Tomes of Infinite Poetry (Neopets' Poetry Gallery)

[doctortomoe]

Okay, I kinda want everyone to ask the Editoral on why the Poetry Gallery is so random with it's updates. Surely enough of us have been entering, right?

Hey guys, does anyone know the policy on trophies on two different accounts and if they can be transferred over?
I had a poem accepted on my side during the 2andahalf years that I didn't have access to my main, and now I would like to transfer over that trophy to my main. Has it ever happened?

It's been done before, but a long time ago. I had asked TNT to move my trophies from fluffiehmedic to flufflepuff once the former got unfrozen. It hasn't worked but that's just me. Maybe it'll be different with Jumpstart.

i have no idea why Jetsam Day poems went up today.

[doctortomoe]

Okay, so here's something I just noticed.

The Neomails you get for Poetry Contest now tell you which poem they're sending you that Neomail about.

My last two poems haven't been seen by the judge. Both were submitted 2 days prior to the updates.

The ones I send around less than a day before the update all get accepted. Do entries over one day get deleted/lost or something?

Has anyone been held over for Chomby day yet? Wondering if I missed it - I sent my poem in yesterday.

[doctortomoe]

I was going to send one in tonight, because lately they've been a day late on poems.

[Lucci]

I usually get notified on the day itself when they publish the poems?

[agedbeauty]

When I posted I was still thinking Chomby news was coming out today - but apparently not!

[doctortomoe]

Tossed one in, but not confident in it in the slightest.

[agedbeauty]

I got TMGE'd again. I'm starting to think my timing is off - if I submit too early I wonder if I'm just too far back in the queue and they're filled up by the time they see mine. I'm so close to 100 wins too.

Posted two poems for Chomby. The one I had put less thought into got chosen.

Was actually hoping the first one would get chosen, as today's concert is coincidentally Chomby and the Fungus Balls performing, so it'll be quite cool. Was actually gambling on that band performing.

And since I'm too proud of it to go to waste, I'll post it here.

Chomby and the Fungus Balls

.

Once, there was a Chomby
Who wanted to be a singer
He practised day and night
But was only met with zinger

“You, a singer? For real?
Don’t tell me that’s how you feel!
Chombies are not born for that deal
And you don’t have any appeal!”

But the Chomby wasn’t fazed
He continued to pursue his dream
Until he realise one thing:
To perform, he needed a team!

He asked around earnestly
Hoping to get someone quickly
But all his requests were
Rejected rather prickly

For the first time ever
The Chomby felt down
Then he remembered something
That removed his frown

To Tyrannian Maze he went
This time, to play was not his aim
He didn’t avoid the Fungus Balls
Instead offered them potential fame

Now, you must have heard of
That popular concert group’s name
You might realise that it not easy
The long way that they came

Today, they’re the performers
Standing in the limelight ray
Who sing of the songs
For Chomby’s special day!

Congrats on your win Lucci! Nice poem =)

Ouch. I didn't even get a TMGE. I got no reply at all.
