It's called the Winter Topical tho, without a topic it isn't really a topical, no? I'm all for a tournament or league without given topics, been advocating for that for a decade plus lol but right now it goes against the nature of the tournament imo and also in previous rounds it wasn't offered and that is perhaps a little unfair, I mean, I'll write the fuck out a verse with no given topic, possibly still not good enough to beat @
Cimmerian who I favour for the tourney, but I believe my point stands.
