====Bardic==== The advantage of the bardic circle is that it has a clear structure, which enforces politeness. It ensures everyone in the circle gets their turn so that even shy people can have a chance to request or perform. There are disadvantages, however. A bardic circle with large numbers of participants will take a long time to traverse the entire circle, making people wait too long for their turn. Such a circle was lamented in a filk by [[Suzette Haden Elgin]]: "I've been here with my song at the ready since day before yesterday night."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://raids.org/files/en003/filk-018.htm|title=Lyrics and Tune Copyright 1983 Suzette Haden Elgin Song at the Ready The Filksing was crow|author=Fredric L.
