Hi, all. Welcome to the playoffs.

Verses will be due a week after that, on June 26. Round 1 topics will be phrases, with Round 2 being quotes, Round 3 story leads and the championship topic being a picture.

Here are the first-round matchups, with the topics being poem titles:

1. oats (9-3) — BYE
8. El Pancake (5-4) vs. 9. Certain (5-5) | "The Genius of the Crowd" (Charles Bukowski)
12. Zenland (3-2) vs. 5. King Ra. (7-7) | "Still I Rise" (Maya Angelou)
13. patrown (3-4) vs. 4. Vulgar (8-4) | "As I Grew Older" (Langston Hughes)
3. Frank (9-6) vs. 14. YDK (3-4) | "No Time to Hate" (Emily Dickinson)
6. Adonis (7-9) vs. 11. Johnathan Mercy (4-3) | "Leave Me a Place Underground" (Pablo Neruda)
10. Mike Wrecka (5-6) vs. 7. timeless (6-8) | "Into My Own" (Robert Frost)
2. Vividlyvague (9-6) — BYE

Two tiebreaker notes: Vividlyvague moved ahead of Frank because he had a better record against common opponents. patrown moved ahead of YDK because he had stronger victories.
