I thought it would be fun to host a short topical tourney dubbed "champions league" where previous champions are only invited. I don't think you would qualify sadly, but the line up would be pretty sick. I think pulling all champions would be too numerous, was considering taking end of season champs and final champs only. maybe champs who won multiple title defenses? Probably won't ever happen, point is at least someone is still active even if I'm not elite, I am from the old lore

Why the fuck wouldn't Vulgar qualify? He has an Art of Writing League championship and more wins than just about anyone.

interesting NYCSpitz,
due to my math skills and intellect I should probably participate in all this legalized gambling you speak of. I just don't have the motivation or the passion to get into it. But thanks, I will check out those sites&vids if I get to a point in my life where I wanna dip my foot in the water. |

Vulgar,
It's interesting question you ask. It is hard to pin it down. It's easier for me to express when I'm "not" able to be in a writing mode. Because most times I have the ability to "go there" when I "want to", if I turn beats on or read/rap my own raps, or other ppls raps... or just start something. Right now is one of those rare "not" times. But I don't know why. Regarding Dr Dogs comments about accidentally feeling an emotion. Yeah I guess that helps too sometimes, depending on what kind of "piece". |

I don't jerk every day, but sadly I also did not last long with the Porn-abstinence. One time I clicked on a twerk vid...I've seen maybe 2 of those vids in my life (but don't get me started). the chick was really a special talent. Like not only was her ass literally perfect, but she did something that takes a lot of athleticism and skill and stamina.. Something in my brain "wouldn't allow me" to masturbate to it. |

sometimes when I'm "super fucking horny" I turn on "the pornography" web site. after about 10-20 minutes of "browsing," I begin "stroking" my "penis" vigorously. eventually, after great "effort," I usually end up "blowing a fat load" into a "sock" or, if I'm a lazy "sack of shit," onto my "self." Then I wipe it off and write. ""

Battles was mostly
Think broadly of something I want to insult about my opponent (eg Bags's attempts at getting swole) --> think of of a wordplay or something on that topic that could have a double meaning ("resistance training") --> word it as an insult, preferably with humour ("hardest resistance training you ever did was slapping urself for having gay thoughts")--> rhyme it with stuff that's relevant or sets it up ("you ain't no gym rat, maybe yoga class & a couple of tame squats") Some lines were different but that was mostly what I did. Topicals I only wrote few of but every one that I didn't no show for was a result of me constraining myself in some way, otherwise I'd spend too much time thinking of all the different things I could write and actually get nothing written. Once I could only interpret the topic I was given in one fairly specific way, so I knew exactly what to write about and was just focused on trying to write it well. Once I decided to stick with the same rhyme scheme for the whole verse, I just started with a vague idea of what I was going to write about and let the rhymes I came up with more or less lead the way. That sounds like a terrible way to write but that might actually have been my best verse. I wasn't just writing whatever if it rhymed, I was just doing a "what rhymes? --> how can I make that relevant to what I already wrote?" process instead of a "what should I write next? --> how can I make that rhyme?" one. Once was a 'short verse' week and the take on the topic I'd settled on had a lot of action for me to write, so again I knew exactly what the content was going to be and could just focus on the writing. Once I decided to do a job advertisement which had a very specific style to adhere to.

Lars, your take on this is interesting to say the least.
Kind of mindblowing if I'm being honest. Not only must you properly assess your opponents weaknesses, but you then use a style to fill those voids. So not only are you saying you're an impeccable judge of others (lack of)stylez, but that other judges will "see" what you've done (whether they know it or not). I mean props if you actually pull this off (no pun intended).. but it sounds kinda farfetched to me.. in that I'm surprised you don't just write a topical how you wanna write it in whatever style you feel at that moment, or For that piece.. U know There is a middle ground between "writing exactly what i wanna write how i wanna write it" vs. "Tayloring my scouting report and exploiting opponents' shortocmings for judges to see." lol |

@Pharaohs Army you're a good dude, but forreal, why do you use quotation marks like that?

Well in a couple satire posts it was used to mimic Muzzle's Open mic piece.
But as far as when I'm actually using them? Let's take my last post here.... I quotationed "see" because I meant the term beyond physical sight. I quotationed "writing exactly what i wanna write how i wanna write it" and "Tayloring my scouting report and exploiting opponents' shortocmings for judges to see", because I was trying to portray modes of thought. It also separates those descriptions from the sentence as a whole making it a bit easier to read. If I was writing something formal, or editing something for someone, I would only use them traditionally/appropriately. |

There is, sure, but the fun for me in writing is the winning. I write to win. I'm super competitive. Right throughout the Winter Topical tourney, I messaged all of my opponents via PM once our verses were up and told them exactly where the battle would be won, and why I would win.
