Ok word. How can I help on the mag? I have lots of Freed Time tonight

@MatriMonica don't worry bout it yo just peeped your breakdown it was fine

i don't know who nominated me "best voter"
but i hereby nominate juxtaposition to take my place in that proposed position.

edit: would've voted on more had i had the time and state of mind required to comment.

read all verses- and i give every single one of you massive props. i'm perpetually impressed by the talent here in the awol. some hard decisions i couldnt make in time.

Tag battles sound great to me! ME + CK + INK vs the world lol

Handicapped matches too, where someone with a good record has to beat two people with bad records lol
can get kinda crazy though.

On voting, a good method that has worked for me in the past, especially when suffering from a time crunch, is two identify two positives of the verse and something to work on constructively for their next verse. This way I'm giving supportive feedback to encourage good writing traits as well as goals for next week's verse. I don't normally quote but I've decided to add that element to some of my voting just to be more supportive as folks have done that for my battles so I feel like trying to give back a bit. Always giving plenty of opinion and ultimately the vote goes to what I feel imo is the best written, most engaging piece. I feel much like Patrown, in that over analysis may lead to cloudy judgement, when usually your gut draw is the best route to take for most battles.

this comes from many years of judging topicals and battle verses in leagues at RM and some at Netcees.

can't wait for the Mag and the next matchups! Sad to see Vulgar, King Keith, and Fenix signing out though :( Sure they will be back with that fire though!

Im back bitches...

Getting my votes in later today

holy fuck, @Split give me some weed, i'm out and i can't seem to write without it...

Will vote morw if battles arw still open tonight

I laughed at Knuck lol. The AOWL really is a fucking forum inside of a forum. Theres more posts here in a day than the entire discussion I'd be willing to bet forreal

For real it's POPPIN man, its something unique that hearkens back to the olden days of textceeing, just hope it keeps itself up and doesn't fall off. lets keep the quality problems coming for these Mods lol

that's how ria was, sv the topical league was the most active part of the site. @rhetorical predicted once sv went inactive, the site would die off. his prediction is coming true.
@Innovator - are you who i think you are, and is it a secret?

It really does remind me of HF and IHH. But I didn't do topicals then I was a shitty text battler and I mean SHITTY text battler lol. But I think this site has momentum behind it and it can keep it up if we keep droppin and Split and King Keith keep being pimp ass mods. That's right Split and King Keith you're pimp ass mods. I'm not sure what it means but I think thats what the kids are saying these days.

zen you were on IHH?



my brother.....

still reminiscent on swordz, ex cal, sly stilla and ide-ill..

but thats da scrypt life

We've had this talk before a LONG time ago. Sadly I don't remember you :(
I remember a few people from that time though. Isn't HelloKitty actually NYCSPITZ? It seems like I remember that name. I remember Rican was there too lol.
But in terms of text battling I think that site was the best forreal. I just can't remember any of their names to save my life

Yeah I made an account on ria and then I noticed it was practically dead so yeah I just stayed here.

I said it before, it's starting to look like 2003 RSTL; haa I'm 21 again and the horizon is smiling.

The present feels like...

"I'm reaching a height that you said cannot be
I'm bringing a light which you said we can't see
Saw the new day comin', it look just like me
Sun bursts through the clouds, my photo ID"
