Don’t let me down Mac

i won't

Dibs on replacement? Missed the second sign up thread lol.

There was only one sign up thread

I'll see what we can find for you boss

predicting a no show in 6/8 matches

Mag?

Being edited/formatted as we speak. @bleak killed it

Nice good shit guys.

@Sharp So what's the plan?

For you vs timeless? It's your call if you want to wait out a no show or if you want an actual battle against @Swerve. We'd push the due date back for the latter. If you already have a verse written there's no shame in taking a ns win

THE DISRESPECK

My verse is done, yeah. But if @Swerve wants to check in that's fine by me, we can go that route. It's looking more and more likely that @timeless won't show...

Ask for an extension in your thread or drop/pm me a verse @Bomb Bard @Incredible @Mac @Defiant @bleak @Ghost1 @Cred @Allen Knight @Smod of War @Wanderer
@Universe it's entirely your call. Swerve has expressed an interest but you shouldn't be forced to write two verses.

I’ll
Key something after work big dog pimpin

Dude I write 200 line topicals that nobody reads almost on a weekly basis lol. 16 lines for me is nothing. I have 20-24 line verses for @timeless, @Swerve & @Orc ready to go.

SPOILERS AHEAD (based on an extremely predictable bracket)

I'm writing for @UserName currently...

I guess just give timeless or Swerve to midnight tonight to check in and ask for an ext, otherwise just move me on to Orc. (Or we can even do the Orc battle this week if he's bored - winner gets bye next week? Up to him. Just an idea.) I'm ready whenever.

Lmao damn. What a MACHINE.

Just as matter of principle, I don't like switching up opponents unless everyone is 100% on board. You the man though. Sounds good. We can give timeless til tonight to drop or swerve til tonight to check in. They've gotten enough mentions in this thread already. Appreciate your flexibility.

Lmao Jesus Christ I miss having this kind of dedication

@Sharp I posted can you get snoops up there. So we can get some votes. I will vote on whatever's open tonight.

done, appreciate the heads up bro

What you call dedication, I call paranoia. Speaking of which, I don't have to do that stupid 1-10 shit do I? @Sharp

Nah, I know you're here. Swerve is around. Want to battle him instead of no one?

Loving Uni getting after these bars

I'm so ready to go, man. @Sharp can I get a 24 line limit grant from you for letting Swerve in? I'm not waiting on this bum any longer

In the interest of fairness I'm not going to force swerve to drop more than 16 (unless he wants to).

@Swerve you're in. Due ASAP

checkin in for bags

lol, I am not writing 24 lines - I can do 16

Universe can you write my verse too

Sure man. I write everybody else's too, apparently.

Where my battle at this some bullshit

When's the Statementish Battle League starting?

I feel I'd do really well there

It’s right after the false accusations battle league so get ready

Gonna no-show that too?

False accusations are claims that are unsupported by facts. I provided facts - names, dates, links, etc. Your personal interpretation of said facts does not make my claim a false accusation.

Bottom line is, I created and wrote the concept everyone is raving about first. That's indisputable. Cash thought of it as well 10 months later, or built on it and made it slightly better in a battle sense... Either way, "false accusation" does not apply here. Know your words. They matter.

And just so we're clear, I'm not under any sort of realistic impression that Cash read the 16th line in the 3rd stanza of a massive piece in the open mic section from a largely unknown writer and picked out a line to use later... I don't have my head completely up my ass here. Is it possible? Yes. Is it likely? No. I'm merely stating that I did it first. That's it. In writing, a field in which I earn a living, being first is everything. Figured that would apply here too... But who knows, there are very few real writers here. I could name them - But I don't want to hurt anybody's feelings.

I'll get my votes in today, guys. Anyone other than Mod Flanders of War who needs a 10-16 line verse written for them (because apparently it's so hard to do), PM me.

@Sharp If you need another warm body to fill out the brackets next round, I'm here. Doesn't look promising for me to advance but i'm good to go if there is a bye situation or something.

Would also like to see @Resin M-I-C or @Destroyer or @Answer jump in for the next round.

that is just not how tournaments work

gg

Just a suggestion, buds. Better than a bye for someone, no?

Thanks for the feed from everyone - I hear ya. Unfortunately I put my best bars into my Orc verse and slept on Swerve. My mistake. Not to take anything away from him though. Congrats @Swerve, liked your concepts.

Universe is Objective?

Ahh makes sense
