Woot! Good job Duncan!

Now my task begins. I have an idea for Beverage Lids ready to go...

When I start I will create a section on my blog to document them.

{Cue dramatic voice over}

Here starts... THE DUNCAMERON!

@ Chris Gilpin - That's what SHE said! 

@Rusty - do it, man, do it.  Can I have a link to that blog?

Not ready to post it yet, but the challenge has begun. 'The Duncameron 1: Beverage Lids' has been written. :)

Next is 'Star Trek Rap'? Uh oh. Problems already... I sure can't rap. Time to find a different way to deal with that... :)

I think that's a good idea.
Placing a restriction on how many times you can slam in a season, as being proposed currently, will take some of the fun of this challenge away though.

It definitely does cut down on the possibilities...however you still have the option of reading on the open mic and competing in the "alt slams" when we have them...and depending on your age you could compete at the Youth Slam as well.
