Hey, nothing against 2trip, but I previously requested a match against Jesodist, and the answer was a yes. Yet, now, I'm facing another person....??

UnbornBuddha · 03-01-2016, 02:06 AM

Actually, it's cool, next match put me with him.

Pinot Grij · 03-01-2016, 03:09 AM

Verses may not exceed 16 lines? When did that become a thing?

MMLP · 03-01-2016, 10:28 AM

Yerrr, I think 16 lines is short but a welcome a challenge n hopefully will extend as the weeks progress!

Just Write · 03-01-2016, 04:30 PM

@MMLP Dropped

Mr. J · 03-01-2016, 02:29 PM

look how they crumble under short verse @Razah I see you...

this will be a fun start

Witty · 03-01-2016, 04:49 PM

16 lines is way too limiting.

It's cool for a weekly challenge here or there, or for a tournament format, but for a league I think it is the wrong decision. Just let people write, let the piece conclude at a natural stopping point, doing this, imo, makes for better pieces all round.

I don't think he'll win, but make no mistake. His stand up is just as good and his ju jitsu is better.
