[split] Mentoring Read Me Thread

[milo]

My thoughts:


Honestly, not an issue I care about. Frankly, if you're around for any length of time style becomes pretty apparent and hard to hide.

I find it interesting you say this, Todd, I had come to the opposite conclusion only a little while ago. There was a game we used to play we called "poetry telephone" and it went like this:

1. First enough people volunteered to participate (around 8 at a minimum i think)
2. The coordinator starts by sending one of them a poem. The poet "rewrites" the poem as their own poem and returns it.
3. The coordinator continues sending out the poem to all of the recipients until everyone has rewritten it.
4. The results are posted "anonymously" and members try to guess who wrote what.

The game was great fun and very popular. (I generally won as I am pretty good with identifying styles but most are not).

Do you really feel that you could identify most members' poems here by style alone?

Looked over the forum and viewed some of the thread's. Not bad idea's, there is lack of current enthusiasm in the collaborative thread.

there is a current lack of enthusiasm at that site in general. It is dying but for other reasons. They average less than 1 poem per day, less than 5 total posts per day. We must get at least 50 posts per day over here.
