Forums → Art, Music, and Writing → Poet of the Month (Voting)

So...we have about a week before the start of December, and I figured that it would be pretty awesome to start a "Poet of the Month" thread for each month. It should gain recognition for some of our fantastic poets here. We'll see if this takes off or not; if the former, good, if the latter, I won't be heartbroken anyway.

Now before I explain how this is going to work, I just want to say that I do not want this to be a popularity contest. It's a way to get our best poets here due praise and criticism. Any canvassing or solicitation of votes is going to get you thrown out.

Rules
1. In a reply to this thread or in a comment on my messenger, put the name of the poet you'd like to submit as well as why you think they deserve to get a month of recognition. You can put a link to a poem that you like, or an explanation of what you like about their poetry, or even just say how their poems inspire you.
2. The poet must be someone with an AG account who has written at some time or another on the AMW board.
3. NO SELF NOMINATIONS.
4. You may only submit one poet per month.
5. The deadline for December's Poet of the Month is the last day of November (the 30th).
6. The poet with the most amount of votes wins the month. After that, they cannot be poet of the month again for a year. Poets that are not selected for the month still keep their tallies, however.

Any vote that does not follow the guidelines (one word posts, lack of rationale) will not be counted.

The poet that gets the most votes will get a whole new thread entitled "December's Poet of the Month: (winner)," with a nice analysis of their work written by me, as well as links to their best poems and author threads. They'll also be featured in a post on
#ArmorGamesUsers at DeviantArt! And of course, if if is the winner's desire, victory speeches, odes, songs, and poems are always welcome.

Who will be the month's Poet Laureate? That is up to you, fellow Armor Poets. Vote now!
