15 Poets will compete in the slam.
Round 1: All 15 poets will perform a 3 minute poem. 5 poets with lowest scores will be dropped.
Round 2: 10 poets will perform a 2 minute poem. The order will be from High to Low. Round 1 and Round 2 will be cumulative to determine who advances to the final round. 5 poets will be dropped based on the lowest scores.
Round 3: 5 poets will perform a 3 minute poem. There will be a new bout draw right at the start of Round 3 and the winner will be determined by the scores of Round 3 only. (so clean slate)
