But no pun in ten did.

Mate, I’m saying this in the nicest way I can: You need to rephrase this because no pun did what?
No pun in ten did.
Not one pun, of those ten puns did win
“No pun intended”
If we want to be pedantic, the setup would have ended with “… hoping to win”
Then we have “no pun in ten did [win]”.
But really, it’s fine. Bravo.
I got the joke, in fact I knew the joke. The problem here is that nowhere does it set up the “no pun did WIN”.
Are you an english speaker at home?
This grammar is very readable to me.
In the first sentence (title) they said they send poems for the goal of having a winner. The second sentence builds upon that.
I dont think this format is very unusual.
