What a waste of a cool topic. Ugh.

NYCSPITZ:

Verses like these are honestly all I thought you were capable of for the longest time lol. I never actually saw anything of substance from you so I assumed you were basically a joke.

Then I saw you try...

Then I watched in horror as you beat me clean in the center of the ring... 1, 2, 3.

You're so much better than this but I also know that this is an intended throwaway/troll and you don't really give a fuck, so... it is what it is. Sad to see you go the way of everyone else that thinks it isn't worth giving an effort here. Writing is writing, and you could benefit from using this outlet as a way of keeping you warmed up for what you really want to do.

I know you're writing a screenplay... and I have no idea how good you are in that realm or what level of success you have achieved, but this is coming from someone who has sold three of them and has 1 indy under his belt, one in pre-production, and one in post that will be out this year on Amazon Prime and Hulu (possibly Netflix)...

Trust me... This matters.

It's a great way to keep you in the practice of writing everyday without getting too burned out on your script, novel, etc. It keeps your mind fertile, and in doing so, can dredge up ideas that otherwise would stay buried away.

I don't know... Just trying to inspire you a bit.

Plus I'm a fan of yours so here's hoping for some season 10 NYC rearing it's ugly head at least once or twice this year.


symetrik:

First of all, I HATE that you springboarded off of NYC's verse the way you did after admitting you had no ideas and would most likely no-show... I just think this topic had so much potential and you, as a creative person, could have killed this. I felt it should've been right up your alley with the constant changes in characters and the ability to tell a story of different time periods linking them all back to the Animus or whatever.

I was disheartened when I saw you ask for a "tight 8". Wtf man. I want to see what you're capable of. NYC has proven himself, you haven't. At least not to me.

Anyway, taking everything at face value because I have no other choice, you definitely had the better topical verse here, because it was really the only one that stayed consistent and told some semblance of a story. I actually thought this was better than your other 2 verses lol and would've loved to see you continue with it. Great pacing and wording and just... clean. Would've made for a cool intro.

Too bad this was little more than a joke of a battle... Could've been great.
