Ring a bell? C'mon man, i got voted against for having a 'bad twist' (there was no twist) - and for 'randomly capitalizing letters' (each cap was the start of a multie) and for having only 'the seeds of ideas' (a non-linear narrative split between three conflicting characters, all borne from the word 'Frotterurism')... fuck that, i thought long and hard about my approach. Are you honestly gonna stand there and tell me that if that was your verse, you wouldn't speak up? Honest question. Gotta have a bit of self-respect man

I wouldn't do so in a battle thread, no. And you aren't allowed to try and explain your writing to voters, that defeats the point of writing in the first place. Especially when Pent uP can't do the same thing.
I'm sure you did take a lot of time. But the fact remains that you can't change your audience, just your approach. Which is why you should appreciate the voters.
