Van Slam 2009-10 Regular Season: Standings & Scores

[Chris Gilpin]

So! a new qualifying season is underway to determine which 5 poets will have a chance to become the next Vancouver Poetry Slam Team.

It's crucial to understand that this year's season has a brand new qualifying system, one completely different from previous years. It is a points system. You can read about how it works here:
http://vancouverpoetryhouse.com/forum/smf/index.php/topic,792.msg2654.html

The points system should become clear very quickly as the season progresses and we start posting results. With that in mind, here are the results from the first qualifying slam.

After the poet's name is the order that they performed in the first round, then their first round score. After that is the position they performed in the second round (if they made the cut) and their second round score, followed by their total score for the evening.

[Duncan Shields]

Awesome.  Thank you for keeping track of all this.  I'm really interested to see how it's going to evolve over the season.

[RCW]

It was interesting to see so many new faces at this opening season slam.  Only a few of the vets decided to go for it which is different than in the past.  That might have something to do with the new system as well.

It should prove interesting regardless.  Thanks for keeping track of it Chris.

[Lisa]

I echo the gratitude of Duncan and RC. Thanks for keeping all of the standings up to date, Chris.

The points system should become clear very quickly as the season progresses and we start posting results. With that in mind, here are the results from the first qualifying slam.

There are only FIVE qualifying slams remaining for the team playoffs. They will be held (at Café Deux Soleils, 2096 Commercial Drive) on: December 21st, January 4th, February 1st, February 15th, March 1st. March 15th is the Last Chance Slam.

There are only TWO qualifying slams remaining to qualify for Vancouver's WOWps Grand Slam. There will be held on December 21st and January 4th. The Grand Slam is on January 11th.

Webmaster's Note: Scores for each slam may take a few extra days, or even weeks to be posted, now that I don't live in the same house as our Slammaster. But I promise we'll get them online as soon as we can.

After the poet's name is the order that they performed in the first round, then their first round score. After that is the position they performed in the second round (if they made the cut) and their second round score, followed by their total score for the evening.

[Chris Gilpin]

It's crucial to understand that this year's season has a brand new qualifying system, one completely different from previous years. It is a points system. You can read about how it works here:
http://vancouverpoetryhouse.com/forum/smf/index.php/topic,792.msg2654.html

There are only FOUR qualifying slams remaining for the team playoffs. They will be held (at Café Deux Soleils, 2096 Commercial Drive) on: January 4th, February 1st, February 15th, March 1st. March 15th is the Last Chance Slam.

There is only ONE qualifying slam remaining to qualify for Vancouver's WOWps Grand Slam. It will be held on January 4th. The Grand Slam is on January 11th.

After the poet's name is the order that they performed in the first round, then their first round score. After that is the position they performed in the second round (if they made the cut) and their second round score, followed by their total score for the evening.

[RCW]

Are there not two qualifiers in January?  Jan 4 and 11?  I know the 18th is the Nerd Slam but is the 11th still open?  No, wait that's the WOW Playoff isn't it?  Never mind.

[Chris Gilpin]

Yep, exactly. WOWps play-off on January 11th, so there's only one qualifying slam in January.
