Exactly what Split Eight said. You asked without setting any guidelines. Mr. J specifically denied a line extension. The situations are not comparable.

I'd like you to stay in the league, but I'm not begging. But at least get your facts straight.

Zen · 11-04-2013, 10:59 AM

I wanna face J this week. Thanks guys.

PancakeBrah · 11-04-2013, 11:10 AM

Am I contendering this week or what? Against vulg even tho he just lost?

YDK · 11-04-2013, 12:01 PM

Y'all missing where I said Frank the one that said 64 lines, if it was actually the 64+48 would that even be allowed? Everybody already bitches about a 160 line battle ppl would flip their wigs if it was 230+ lines don't act like I should expect anybody to really mean 64+48 smh and like I said as soon as I realized it wasn't the 64 I said something and wasn't cool with it but it didn't matter. I woulda had to delete part of my verse if he denied shit but when I deny shit I get a big fuck you.
Facts straightened.
I guess if I was known for constantly trying to cheat and use multiple aliases and taking easy wins every week a little thing like a line limit is easy to let slide smh

Certain · 11-04-2013, 12:04 PM

Frank said: "64 line extension."

You agreed.

Frank used about 58 lines of that extension.

Facts straightened.

This is a game of semantics. But the bottom line is you easily could have trimmed your verse (and improved it) but chose to let Frank, who loves to write long as is and is known for these kinds of things, set the rules. Yes, he got you on wording. Sorry about that. But it's not the main reason you lost, and it's not breaking the rules.

Move on from it, either as a member of this league or not. You're still in good position to make the playoffs and even get another shot at the regular-season title.

Accurate.

YDK · 11-04-2013, 12:11 PM

The champ shit lost all respect and worth from me, now I remember why I stopped competing in the first place. And yes I do believe it was the main reason I lost, another 30+ lines maybe I could have added whatever else ppl felt it lacked

Do you really believe 30 more lines would have given you a better verse? Write shorter. Jesus Christ. For all intent and purpose, you had the upper hand in everything except for quality of writing vs quantity, else you would have won...

Saying that you don't like what Frank did also isn't the same as asking for a DQ.

You played the victim and lost, no?

Adonis · 11-04-2013, 01:27 PM

@Mike Wrecka

Fuck, I forgot about the topics. Ill be home @4

@Fig

Send mike some photo topics I know youu got some on deck

Certain · 11-04-2013, 01:30 PM

I sent him a bunch. The only reason I haven't posted matches yet is because I don't know who Mike Wrecka wants in the contendership battle.

Mr. J · 11-04-2013, 01:42 PM

Smh

Certain · 11-04-2013, 01:49 PM

@Mr. J, did you select your topic?

Mr. J · 11-04-2013, 02:00 PM

@Certain I sent my choice to @Mike Wrecka

Certain · 11-04-2013, 02:02 PM

Cool. @Mike Wrecka, need help?

e11even · 11-04-2013, 03:06 PM

I wanna battle myself this week. I'll accept the line extension and it'll be fucking epic.

But truth be told, I'll probably double no-show and still vote. It would still be a dope idea though.

TYSON · 11-04-2013, 03:22 PM

What's this select your topic talk?

Vulgar · 11-04-2013, 03:37 PM

I'll be back strong this week. There will be blood. That much is certain.
