Ender: No idea which picture you were going for but I'm taking the description into account. Write some words up in the AOWL discussion chat thing and I'm sure someone will help you out.

That said tho, cool piece. Interesting and fueled with thoughts about the current state of US politics along with touching on several topics that are present today. Don't really have anything to add or take away from your verse, it just is what it is. A thorough piece touching on several subjects and closing it up with the terrifying thought that the orange goon will get another 4 years in office. In terms of the picture/topic you did a great job, cool take/twist to it all but I'd like to hear more about Putin's involvement since he's clearly in the pic you chose, or at least mentioned or touched more on the issues either him or Russia has been a part of to cover that part a little bit better as well.

Regardless of that, pretty cool piece.

Mr. J: Loved the atmosphere of your piece, felt this piece was a little bit more worked on than a few of your previous submissions so far in this tournament as well. You did the repetition thing really well without making ''picture that'' seem redundant or out of place, well done. You covered the topic of a madman with the gun really well and even took some shots at Asylum, lol .Overall you wrote a short and sweet piece nailing the topic with a story to follow.

MVGT Mr. J. Ender definitely had a pretty dope piece as well but it kind of lacked the story driven element in his piece to really tie the whole thing together, it needed a bit more character and perhaps a less obvious interaction with the topic at hand to drive it forward as well and make it even more interesting to read it. Maybe from the viewpoint of an activist going to protests with all of these things stuck in his/her head could have created that extra bit of depth the piece could have laid its foundation on to score some extra points and make it a little bit more interesting. If he had executed something like that it would have been a much tougher battle to vote on. Definitely a dope one to read tho, great showings from both.
