The highest and lowest score will be dropped. There will be 3 rounds in this competition. The first two will be cumulative. The 3rd round will consist of the top 3 finalists with the highest cumulative score from the first 2 rounds. This final round is a "clean slate" round meaning the previous scores from the first 2 rounds don't count. Poems have to be under 3:00 mins with a 10 second grace period given. After that, 0.5 is taken off for every ten seconds over 3:10.
