start the 1-2 punch league back up

[Destroyer]

that shit is cool
and people might show for battles if it's only one bar

[Strikta]

It'll flop just like everything else.

Nothing here battle-wise gets enough hype anymore.

[PancakeBrah]

THIS. IS. A. TOPICAL. SITE.

The sooner you assimilate the happier you'll be.

[Destroyer]

fuck your poems

[PancakeBrah]

You don't mean that.

[Split]

lmao


dudes let topicals take over even though everyone in the discussion forum has said they were whack forever and constantly shit on topicalists

i think this says more about the Topical modteam vs. the Battling modteam

get ur shit together, text... u cant honestly tell me there were more topicalists than battlers at ANY point in text history

[Split]

and also, since we were literally pulling topical/ OM writers out of the woodworks, it should be beyond easy for you guys to recover your sport... there are even massive other sites w/ whack noobs u could cultivate.

instead u invite them here, roll up their souls and smoke them, and then shit on their ashes


u guys should do something about succeeding instead of complaining about how u arent

Obv the end goal is RIGHT there. If you build it, they will come.


THE ANSWER IS NOT ANOTHER GIANT TOURNAMENT.


get the league good. write good mags. GO OUT AND ACTIVELY INVITE GOOD PEOPLE/ OLD HEADS BACK. KEEP THEM HERE WITH A DECENTLY RUN LEAGUE.


If u faggots havent fixed this shit by summer I sware

[Certain]

The young man speaks truth.

[Destroyer]

Well make it a fucking topical 1-2 punch league then I don't give a fuck

Nearly every site turned topical b4 it died completely.

Tho i tend to agree with the majority of this post ajd the one that followed.


I personally blame meth.

I identified the problem while there was still time to fix it.


But no.

Fuckin idiots kept meth on until battling was completely dead....then got rid of him as he shrunk into the shadows.


I am now convinced meth was a kamikaze moderation tool sent from the minds of the topical team to destroy battling so they could plant a giant unicorn tree in the living room of the house that battling built.

Well done topical.

But kno if i ever lift my hand i could rebuild battling in a matter of months. Ive done it before in my spare time.

I was gonna say if it wasnt fixed by summer, id do it on dead days after work...


you'll know when it is Time

I think the problem falls mostly on half-assed commitments from the elite writers and battle moderators. Since I've been here, these are the tournaments that ran:

• Summer Classic V: Run by Knucklehead until he got bored, then run by God of War and Meth.
• Fall Brawl II: Run by Strikta until he got bored, then run by Meth until he got bored, then run by CtrlF4.
• Tag III: Run by PancakeBrah, but featuring a no-show in the finals by Hall of Famers Orc and Hush.
• The Elements: Run by God of War until he got bored, then run by Meth, featuring a no-show in the finals by Hall of Famer Bags.
• Key Grand Prix: Run by Strikta until he got bored before it even began, then run by CtrlF4.
• Newbie Tournament 2013: Run by Meth, who wrote zero magazines.

Sharp Nine right now is writing a good magazine every week for the NBL and still having problems getting people to sign in and then show up and vote.

But honestly, Destroyer's idea to bring back the 1-2 league might work. No-showing in a 1-2 league is some low-level shit, and voting on those battles is ridiculously easy, as is compiling a magazine every week.

Topical leagues require so much more effort than battle leagues as a whole, though, yet the topical leagues here have been successes across the board.

this.. but you have to make the site care about the leagues/ tourneys as well


everyone cares about tourneys as sign-ups go up... but if theres no attention either from the mods, participants, or from beefs then no one is gonna click thru and vote

ninjas need a hype man who knows what hes doin

[Paradigm]

this is a good idea tbh

and a thread from destroyer not bitching about something but still kinda lol

[big baby]

i made the om cool with big baby bib mustachio fuckkeeps. even neighbor joining cuzhe no the deal. strikta is a low life loser and shouldnt run anything except his son to school in his jordans cause his car broke down/got towed/doesnt exist.

When you get lazy stupid people like strikta running things and gingerbread 16 year old inept strangers like meth you get 0 nothing. and bags talking about stuff and he no showed a final lol. then no showed a topical in which oats owned him ONCE again.

[CtrlF4]

The problem w/battling is the battlers. Everyone no shows and trolls like it's cool.

Split seems to be in a good mood today. I'm guessing either new pussy or drugs. Either way, congrats.
