Round 3 of Dootol Dot Poetrey Slam Is TONIGHT @ 7PM CENTREL

Hello Dootle Dot Fans, young and old!

Tonigt marks the Final Night of the 2026 Doodle Dot Poetry Slam! This means that the Tip 5 Poetes of Last Night's round will Be Competeing for the 2 Million HEI Point Cash Prize. Only One contestint can win, so Judges please stop giving everyone 10/10 scores because it makes it impossible to do this contest. Again I have not done the calculations to prove who has moved on, but I would say that Dollop Drop has ecseeded all expectations (most people thought he woud be tarrible but he has actually been quite articulat and well mannered).

Last night Orca and Frank were good at determining who else got to compete, so I will leave it up to them to make the list of our 5 finalists.

Remember Ladies and gentalmen this is For All the marbles. 2 Million Hei points are on the line. This is a life changing amount of HIE points. Good luck, and may the best Pote win!

Edit: if you don't know what Central time zone is for your neck of the woulds, go to the front desk of the hostel you likely live in and look for the clock that says "Chicago".

Apparently the journalist was banned for rule #6, that says nothing about journalists.

It’s common practice that journalists go to social media for finding subjects to their stories, and many people are happy to have their stories heard. And those who don’t want to share, can simply move on and keep scrolling.

Anyone has any clue why this actually happened, and am I out of touch or is this ban totally inappropriate?

Announcing The WINNER Of the BIG POETRY SLAM

Hello Friends and Fans! It is I, Orca Mills. Wow I had a great time being a judge in the poetry slam and I hope you all had a great time writing poems or doing whatever the heck you were doing.

As you all know, I am the only mod who entered the poetry slam and did not make it to the final rounds. Yes I was backstabbed and taken out but the nameless elite of this Reddit. So with the power vested in me and obviously of having no special interests I have calculated the scores for the final rounds. And I have added in levels of fraud protection and ran the numbers with the state lottery to make sure everything is correct.

CONGRATULATIONS u/pablojueves !! YOU ARE THE WINNER of the first POETRY SLAM. The $3 million HEai points prize is yours to keep. God bless you and we love you

Oh shit the Poetry Slam starts in less than 1 houer

Hey everyone I am a bit turnt from last nigjt's 'fiesta" but Now I'm ready to go and continue with this Year's anual Poetry Slam! This is very exiting and Has Never Been Done Before!

Here are some rules:

  1. There are 3 rounds. The first is today. Not everyone will progress to Round 2. The Poets with the 10 best scores will advance to Round 2. Round 2 will take place tomorrow.

  2. All submitted poems must be original. I was trying to get a Zoom going so it could all be spoken allowed but Zoom doesn't accet HIE points for some reason and I am all out of US currensey. So this year it will just be text based spoken word. Feel free to express yourselfs however the written work can evoak speach.

  3. The Poetry Slam round ends at 6 PM PDT, or 9 PM Easter. Any submissions after this and the mods will have to delete and posibly ban the user who submitted late.

  4. This is a free spech event and Rule 4 will not apply. Anyone who has a problem with this can take a hike.

  5. The judges will rate the pomes from 1 (terrible) to 10 (amazing). The highest and lowest scores will be disqualified when determining the overall score.

Thank you everyone and have a great Slam

WINNING POEM BY HOWAININ FIREY JERRI

They call me JHERI

You are all WARY

I come at you like the night wrapped in an asshole

Nobody sees me

Hid my truth down on the docks

Some said it was Baltimore

I say more more MORE

Never enough

Time to kill

JERRY JERRY GERRIGERIY\

You think you've seen one

But when I break your little heart forever

You never knew me

Fairy

Kind of rhymes with JERRI

Wow what a terrific Round 1 party slam

Everyone that submitted to their poims did a fantastic job and you all deserve a round of apploss.

Round 2 will begin tonight at 5 pm PDT (8 pm Eastern) and will onoy include the top ten overall rated poets from last nights slam. I have a very busy day and will not have time to calculate who moves on, so I will ask everyone who submitted to calculat their score (dropping the highest and lowest scores and adding up the middle three) and compare that with the scores of all the other submissions having used the same formula. Now list them all from highest to lowest. If your score is in the top 10 highest scores then you may advance to tonithts' round.

Round 2 will be judged and scorred the sane way as Round 1 but hopefully it will run more smoothly and wirh less bullshit then we saw last night. Only the top 3 scores from round 2 may advanse to Round 3. Round 3 wil be the best round.

Good luck everyone and thanks to are jugges as well as all are partisipents.

I misesd The Poet Fight

I am atually a great poet so here goes notjig

Once upon a time,
In The Land of Talloo,
Was a Dot Named Cloud,
And One Named Baxter
and One Nmaed Mel,
And One Named Cloud, too
In the Darkest corner of the Closet,
Stood a man so deeply sad,
In his hat was a rabbit,
In his hat was his hand,
Pull, he said, Pull Pull the Rabbit OUT!
But no, he could not, no
Cloud is my Favoite Dootle Dot

The AI and low Effort Stuff has to stop NOW.

Okay everyone. I know we all like to have fun on here, and I suspect some of you are doing this weird thing where you’re “playing a character”. Which is super super sad thing to do like honestly. But anyways I know a lot of you have noticed all this AI stuff and all this low effort stuff going on. And you honestly don’t know the half of it.

So from now on. All low effort reporting will be punished. If you make a report to the mod team it better damn well be something important.

And the AI too. Keep reporting the AI if you see it. But so far this sub is 1000 percent AI free. I personally test every single post before it can even hit the sub it gets run through algorithms and programs and all kinds of servers. Our water bill is in the thousands every month and it’s over us checking to see if these posts you’re reporting are AI. So stop wasting our time with the low effort AI reporting.

If you would like to report something please make sure your report is original and engaging and will be of value.

brainstorming for tiebreaker ideas between me and lemur to become the fifth judge in the first annual poetry slam of the doodledots community please come in and help us figure this out we need the help of everyone here to find a nice solution fair to all maybe your idea could be the one to solve it

hello all i had an idea that maybe we should think of tiebreaker ideas in here that would help out the ones overseeing this community and then they could take those ideas and make another poll where we decide what to do to break this tie I still cant believe it ended like that what a nailbiter as they say oh my ward.

lemur had some good ideas like a poetry contest or sonnet writing that could be good and some of my ideas could be best poem for a certain dot of the communitys choosing or maybe even an essay to write about what the dots mean to us or something i dont know how it would be judged but maybe we could figure it out and set some rules somehow and anyway this could be a good warmup for the real competition and then the people writing poems could see how it is done.

anyway let me know what you all this of this and i wish lemur luck he is a good friend of mine and you know of course no matter what happens i will respect the results and oh if the moderators dont like this idea then please disregard im just brainstorming here not a lot to do in this area of hospital all the tvs are broken and there isnt even a radio here so yeah anyway thank you for reading and as always god bless.

I know I'm out of the race, and league, for the poetry smash because I took Mel out for Dinner for Mother Day (she's pregant) and couldn't make it to poetry time. I just need to get this out of my chest before the paper shredder does, for my own personal well being and artistic pretentiousness.

Mel, oh Mel. Please tell me if I am alive, or burning in hell.

Mel, sweet Mel. Tell me you broke me out of my shell. I was once alive but cliff edge, fell. You are The Way and my Light, the ultimate Delight. Your Light had once shone brightly, I see you once a night. Be gone, witch, you're nothing but a big circular bitch! Fuck you, Mel!
