I wish I knew how to play the game at all

That gave me chills

Read both. Love fischer.

I'd smash D'Angelo. he didn't even mention the bishop or knight. I'd like to see him explain how to correctly castle or en passant. inner city education, I tell you...

For those wondering (probably no one), the Sunday shutout rule (goes from 8-0 to 5-0) won't be enforced until I get to work tomorrow afternoon.

Still, the battles most in need of votes are sacrifice vs. Frank, Diode vs. neutral and dyedinthewool vs. timeless.

This is the last day for voting, right? Going to get my votes in today.

Voting ends in 23 hours, 26 minutes.

Good because I'll be getting mine in after I wake around 4 pm

That documentary is on Netflix. I recommend it. If anyone wants to play chess, hit me up on chess.com. My names Objectify over there.

I meant the book.

cimmerian posts a verse on upn every 4 months or so.

and I was supposed to go see st vincent last night but shit was sold out. the new album is great. bigger fan of the david byrne collabo album.

woke up shitfaced, put on essential mix.
not sure if awesome or pathetic.
happy either way.

Who changes battle records? I should be 6-6 not 4-6

I just looked it up. You were 5-6 entering this week, so you'll be 6-6 when I update everyone for this week's records. I'm going to be doing that all at once and don't want to screw myself up, so I updated you to 5-6.

Appreciate it bro

The Jet stole home

LMfuckinAO @ split looks like millhouse tag. My bad bro but that shit made me laugh so hard i spit soda everywhere

Now that it's evident that I lost and I can speak freely, I just want to say that the verse I wrote this week might be among my personal favs in a topical. I managed to do exactly what I wanted to do and I seldom do that. Although it didn't get any votes I demolished the topic to its full extent and I'm satisfied with that result, the fact that all the votes focused on basicly completely different things in my verse shows my personal success. I had 2-3 other approaches that would have been better from a voters/readers pov, but I liked this one quite a bit. :)

Not going to repeat that kind of approach as wild as I did this week I think (so, no worries!), but I really enjoyed it.

Good battle bro. We'll definitely meet again at some point. Cheers

Yep. Wont be as easy next time tho'. Looking forward to it!

I LOST BECAUSE I NO SHOWED?! WTF! THIS IS STUPID. I SHOULD BE 0-0, NOT 0-1. NO SHOW ISN'T A LOSS. I DON'T LOSE, EVEN WHEN I LOSE.

Y'all are Destroying this league.

lol good one. I'm sad that I get a NC's inside joke.

I take it this means you'd like to stay in.

Yeah.

But, I voted purely for contribution... did I need to vote, not having a battle and all? I had half a verse written this week, just started late and rusty.

You need to vote to stay in, so yes. Thanks for voting.

DRIVE BY SHOT OF EMOTION

Y'ALL JUST GOT HEADSHOTTED. SORRY.

I once suggested starting an band called Nah Nah Nahs.

ha what an unexpected turn

I appreciate all of the votes & critique of my work this week. I wasn't able to round off my story as I'd like but I shook some long time rust off. Good match @Vulgar. Voting now, gents.

@King Ra.

Good match.

Remember back when people used to write things in public bathroom stalls? Does that still happen? I feel like Sharpies are disappearing at a rapid rate.

I will be casting any required tie-breaking votes this week.

that's what I like about writing topicals as opposed to battle verses. Even when I lose, I can still be stoked on what I wrote for a long time.

Yeah it does happen i used to work at menards and people wrote funny things on the stalls one time i took an hour nap on a toilet during a sunday morning shift but its okay in north dakota stores don't open until noon on sundays and i was super hungover because one of our bosses jason had a going away party the night before and i got super fucked up and was up late playing cards didnt do well because my cognitive functions were impaired

This was before you adapted to alcoholism?
