Good job running it at the same time as their massively successful tournament. If u had half a brain u would be woring with them as they have been putting on the only successful events recently. Instead u force a competition between the two and pretend that the tourney is supposed to be the winter major After they specifically said theirs would be the winter major. And why wouldnt it be? Any interest u generated with ur initial sign up thread has.already dwindled because u guys dont know how to generate interest. U act like ur doing every1 a favor by hosting a tourney. Stupid swerve |

Six months? Interestingly, I joined about six months ago. I don't know what happened before. It's not happening now.

Battling is the key to the site thriving because it transfers into a livelier Discussion board. I really enjoy that the topical side is getting it's time in the sun as I much prefer to write than battle. But overall we (topical writers) have a very different dynamic than the battlers do. Outside of the random beef, it's much more cordial and community focused. One look at the AOWL and Winter Topical discussion topics proves that. Whereas when battling is thriving it's a lot of shit talking and in turn more entertainment. It's less subdued. The main problem isn't just the running/administering of the battling events it's that the headliners don't battle anymore. Beyond/Hush/GoW/Cashius/Knux and countless other top tier battlers just don't battle anymore, some don't even visit the site at all. So when these tourneys/leagues start it's usually a bunch of mid to low-tier battlers or no names. The vets who ARE here see that and aren't interested; there's no prestige to winning and no vendettas to go after. It's a vicious cycle. Sharp's doing a great job with running the NBL but the key is the participants. You have to get the heavy hitters back. The topical side is stacked and motivated. That's the only important difference.

I'd say let's not get the vets back. Seems like that's living in the past.
Coach and teach these new guys instead of sayin they wack and deterring them from practicing and battling in general. Vets can't stay vets forever. It's a changing of the guards

Yes, anyone can write topicals. Why? See, topical writing essentially is writing with rhymes and a single focus. Any style is accepted. It's a much less narrow-minded field.
Battling demands sameness for some reason, though it wasn't always like that. Very few people have differing battle styles. The equivalent would be if all topical verses were expected to be Vulgar-style philosophical abstracts. That's one of the reasons people leave battling for topical writing. It's a more freeing genre. It also translates much, much better to real writing. I can't think of a single case where someone was a dedicated topical writer, then stopped to become a text battler. No, you're not.
