The tic-tac of spurs on the packed earthen roadway wasn't as noticeable as the sound they made on contacting the weathered boards of the walkway that wound along the border of the main thoroughfare...well, the only thoroughfare...stretching from the sheriff's office past the hotel, restaurant, general store, and assayer's office to stop outside the saloon, but it still echoed through the town as the semiretired gunslinger approached the post in the square and read the flier stuck there.
Sounds good...we got a time, yet? And a call for judges?

My availability will be erratic the next few days, with company descending.
Past 11 (EST) I should be available, though slightly drunk.
i.e., at my best.

Oiiiiii what's with the semi-retired I hope that's not supposed to be me or you will get a bullet up the buttocks!
Gawd what's that in good old GMT? I'll be alone (I hope ... hubby doesn't understand the need for concentration in these matters and is liable to keep interupting for the sheer hell of it ... men are sooo childish) and able to concentrate during the weekdays up to about 7 GMT, weekends not so good. although I did write the first stanza of my new form in the shower prior to getting bonked

I think it's just the iconic western hero. though a shot in the ass is always good for comic relief.
I'm 5 hours behind you. I suggest High Noon (here) which would be about 5pm (there) if the judges and whatnots can get themselves together.

You get told when you may start what you are writing and usually the subject and when you have to have the poem written and sent to Charley. Don't post here she will put up both poems without a name attached and then the judges rip into them lol

I've come out as a blatant heterosexual, have ya know...
But I will hand you both a bit of dusty advice; look yer opponent in the dead eye and then drop a bead on 'em. You'll manage to blind 'em with your brilliance and declare that it was so unfair to go into a battle of wits with an unarmed enemy.
Sits at the table with Remec and winks, "Fancy a game of seven cards, Stud?"

having an opponent like myself is like having a small army on your side.
I'm far more likely to shoot myself in the foot than muss your hair.

Things need arranging before anything happens, so ... bottoms up until that time, Nerk!
lol It does usually take some time because there are a few people involved: Need two to sling the poetry and 3 volunteers for positions of judge, jury and executioner.
So here is a recap on how things are shaping up!
UYS VS NERK (at 11am EST / 4pm BST at some point in the near future.)
Judges:
Remec (if he's interested in coming out of semi-retirement
)Still need 2 more judges, though! Please remember that while gunslingers have only a small window of live time in which to write and submit their poems, judges have 24 hours in which to read and deliver their opinions. If any newbies or any of you old coots want to join in, let us know!
PS - reading, mind twirling. I think I've got something fabulous up my sleeve!
