Mark, good question. Tim claims that there is precedent for revisions in the bakeoff, but I'm less sure. I think for the integrity of the 'competition'--which, like the points in Who's Line Is It Anyway, doesn't much matter--poems should be voted on as they are, unrevised. Much more important is whether comments result, in some cases at least, in improved versions; for the sake of the original poems & of the art, I certainly hope they do.
