The problem is the Open Mic is for verses people want in depth feedback on... the BA is for battles that will go towards your overall site record.
One is run like a competition warehouse and one is run like a, idk. Talent show. Lol. OPEN MIC
People don't click on the OM to vote, and people don't click on the BA to fight
Part of the reason the BA is so devoid of topical battles and regular battles is cause our leagues and tourneys here essentially accommodate everyone of every skill level
Posting Topical battles directly into the OM would saturate the OM with verses no one would read, tons of failed battle threads, and bring in 0 more votes
Maybe a Topical BA subforum in the OM could work. But there's like 1 battle a month.
Just post in BA, put a [TOPICAL] tag on it and leave a link in OM feed comments
