And on other news @to you all, The moment i saw my battle against timeless was set up i wrote a quick verse caz i thought that right after the battle thread was set the opponents only had 24 hours to respond and thats why i posted mine, I see timeless hasn't posted his verse while I had to post a half assed verse caz i thought the time limit was short, I think its not fair caz no one told me how much time i have to write my verse so i wrote it quick while the other has lots of time to view my verse get some ideas and then post his. What do you all say to this?

Jesodist, the rules are plain as day, the rules of your match will always be in your battle thread, when the verse is due and all that. Sometimes there is a change to the schedule, but log in and try to pay attention to the announcements which are obvious, no one here is responsible to tell you when you should post your verse, albeit the moderators do tag you when your battle is up, most of the time, if not just check it from time to time. I'm telling you because you have seemed confused since your arrival.
Also, you can always modify your verse before your opponent posts, and really before any vote is cast, when that happens you can't no longer. As for your question, it is silly really, this isn't battle rap, so most of the time your opponent is not going to rebuttal with material from yours, now I've seen something akin to it, but that takes a high level of skill to do so and it must be done right, if not it comes as immature and voters will probably not vote for a verse that seems to be so contrived, and prematurely derived from another's inspired source other than the imaginative contents of one's own mind.

And don't be ridiculous, if I've lost my soul it will not be due to cyber interactions with other archetypal figments, it will be due to my own lunacy and or liberation. Losing your soul is only a negative thing if you don't have anything greater to sacrifice it for. In fact, the literature concerning the mystics that have accomplished some form of realization have technically lost their own soul. Having a soul or other ethereal composite you've concocted is only important if you crave the comfort of needing to have something greater to attach to yourself. Nowadays, I don't place importance in such things. As for Frank, just look at his battle record, you'll get it! :)
If not, oh boy, somebody didn't get the birds and bees story, and if not I think its time you do.
