Week 10: 7. Vulgar (4-1) vs. 8. Split Eight (1-2) \\ Split Eight wins 4-3

Split Eight - the precision of the wording was not on par with last week's effort and it hurts a piece written in this mellow/somber mood when there's a "break" - moreso than when there's craziness afoot. Still, that's nitpicking. I enjoyed the disconnected movement - your scenes are like charcoal sketches and your characters pastels (that fade into each other seemlessly).

Vulgar - I've always enjoyed your verbose tales of fuckery and this was fairly classic Vulgar in that sense... the wording however was not on the level as some of the shroom-fueled snapshots of insanity that you've produced in the past. A little more grayscale than the usual fantastical play with light (I don't know why I'm dissecting this battle from such a visual vantage). Story progression and dialog were top notch.

vote is for Vulgar in a coin flip, based on masterful progression
