@Vulgar, you're the most interesting man on Netcees.co.

I can just imagine you flipping through The Condition of the Working Class in England for the 14th time with rave music blasting and a PBS special report on in the background.

Split 10-24-2013 12:52 AM

e11even 10-24-2013 01:18 AM

I have a confession: Netcees is my primetime television... that's both depressing and hilarious. fuck my life.

Certain 10-24-2013 01:19 AM

I wouldn't do it, but it'd be kind of hilarious to go and change the colors by one shade on every battle right now.

I'm assuming you meant polo convention, as this is no longer 1938, but yea, their appearance definitely entailed artificial insemination disability babies, not the normal thing to fap to, but, HBO ain't started the soft core yet

Oh this shit got me good

Adonis 10-24-2013 02:43 AM

I hate this fuckin Topic though

Never have issues writing, so uninspired but...Almost done

YDK 10-24-2013 02:43 AM

What the problem is @Split Eight
How I always come weak in the leagues when I've reached the playoffs or semi finals every time I've competed in one? That goes for topical leagues 1-2 punch an the story telling tourney lol I do write for myself in most cases but don't compete to lose
Fuckin butthead I hope you get a chickpea stuck in your nose

It's probly because you actually make music...

YDK 10-24-2013 03:14 AM

Watchu mean?

Certain 10-24-2013 03:24 AM

@breathless, calm down. You're two votes in. Many people have made bigger turns.

Frank 10-24-2013 03:28 AM

@king ra goodlooks son.

little homie inno false repping. claiming a red glare victory could get you murked B

breathless 10-24-2013 03:42 AM

This being a text league, as far as I can see, people want two names and a city with some stupid plot twist that m night shyamalamadingdongus could script while on ketamine... You seem, at least write like you do, verses that would still stand in audio. That's always been my problem with text leagues, people bitch about not catching the "flow" because they aren't proficient in it, and then give negative opinions because we aren't allowed to explain/audiate ourselves, yet still get labeled as needing to improve because fuckers are stuck in text format... And we also aren't given a set of symbols to denotedissonant syllables, expressions, run on lines, stops, extra "jazz style timing" ect. .. A pm with Adonis I had for example... I explained exactly why people dont catch his flow, and all he could say is... Well, thats not how I would write it it in real life, but he couldn't provide how it would sound/read in real life because these text heads are stuck on how they already want to interpret things, rather than how the writers want them to be interpreted

breathless 10-24-2013 03:43 AM

Btw, DQed or not this week, I will still vote unbiasedly

Certain 10-24-2013 03:49 AM

A very wide variety of styles and approaches to content have been successful here, @breathless. I don't recall many verses by Season 1 champion dead man, widely regarded as the best writer here, that included names. He often eschews storytelling entirely. And most people are not voting based on flow as much as rhyme scheme because, as you point out, flow can be interpreted in many ways.

I'll leave it up to @Mike Wrecka, but I know we'd all prefer not to disqualify anyone. Please, calm down, though.

e11even 10-24-2013 04:00 AM

@Just Write when you dopping?

... I'm tryna synchronize...

YDK 10-24-2013 04:05 AM

@breathless stop comparing text to audio bro, I don't write to make songs out of then therefore they wont always flow like it. I wrote an entire book of poetry an I'd say 98% of it isn't written like I would speak it or "rap" it. This is a competitive writing league on a rap site not a written rap contest ya feel me? There is a difference in everyone's style, the best overall verse usually wins. Story verses aren't need at all but they're more relatable to the readers normally so if a good story is against a good metaphor it just depends on originality and execution not on which a more thoroughly described story with character development imagery or anything else, its just personal preference and honestly metaphorical verses or symbolic verses are generally harder to execute by nature, its just a part of writing bro, but trust me stick with it and you'll grow as a writer

Zen 10-24-2013 07:39 AM

All I'm saying is I write topicals and my shit would still sound good on a beat.

breathless 10-24-2013 08:39 AM

Oh alcohol, how I didn't miss thee, sadly though, I agree with everything I shouldn't have said, to me, first and foremost, this is a rap league, just being text doesnt change that, otherwise this league should be in a poetry section

PancakeBrah 10-24-2013 08:55 AM

My flow was better. Rhymes were better. My story didn't have a twist. You're a butthurt faggot with a simple style trying to make yourself out to be Bob Dylan. Fuck your swaying, loser.

Sure, we are. It's called punctuation.

If you stick with a rhyme pattern, or general cadence, your reader will pick up on the 'flow'.

No matter how slow or fast you read a bar, the vowel sounds, hard and soft consonants, assonance/alliteration/ etc. all fall in the same order relative to one another.


sometimes you'll run into people who don't get your rhyming, and theres nothing you can do. but i will say that between when I started writing and now, ive developed more of a sense for flow...


that being said, bad flow only negatively affects your verse when the opponent does it really well, or you had very simplistic or dropped rhymes.

in any case, patience and an open mind will get you far

I MEANT POLIO CONVENTION.

@YDK i dont believe in chickpeas

YDK 10-24-2013 10:00 AM

Are you allowed to not believe in chickpeas lol

Certain 10-24-2013 10:45 AM

Chickpeas are delicious.

@Mr. J, I'm probably going to drop pretty late.

PancakeBrah 10-24-2013 10:49 AM

Can I write a whole essay swaying @Certain? Seems like the reasonable and mature thing to do and allowable in this league.

Mike Wrecka 10-24-2013 10:54 AM

ok what did i miss? investigating sway accusation now

YDK 10-24-2013 11:06 AM

Fuck a sway post, I read both verses an tbh pancake got it either way I just haven't had tome to explain a vote yet

Yes they are, it takes a horrible person. To not believe in chickpeas

Mike Wrecka 10-24-2013 11:09 AM

Hummus is my jam for like the last month. just started eating it and im addicted

Certain deleted it. Split has it quoted in a post.

Im not calling for a DQ because I want voter feedback but it rustled my jimmies.

Certain 10-24-2013 11:11 AM

I deleted the more egregious of the two sway posts. The second one seemed more like a philosophical debate.

Mike Wrecka 10-24-2013 11:13 AM

ok i saw it. i can see deleted posts as well. the battle will stay open as per Pancakebrahs request.

Certain 10-24-2013 11:14 AM

I'm going to write next week's Certain's Corner about flow and rhyme scheme.

Mike Wrecka 10-24-2013 11:15 AM

@Certain , Beck is the shit. I reviewed that Guero album for Newsday. i really enjoyed it

Certain 10-24-2013 11:18 AM

I like Guero but love Sea Change and Odelay.

please do as it seems some haven't grasped what others are doing and doing far beyond their opponents capabilities
