I guess anything to do with rubbers nowadays carries a different connotation, eh?

[Wise Wiggles]

Who uses rubbers anyways, amirite?

[Lars]

lmao I guess I'm the only guy on the board still a fan of prophylactics and anal play huh?

[Certain]

You're engaged, though. You should be going in raw.

[Lars]

lmao you guys know far too much about my life outside of here already

but for the record i do on occasion, just not midweek when she has work the next day is all

[oats]

I can't remember the last time I threw a rub on.

[Witty]

QUARTERFINALS
(1)dead man vs. (9)big baby

Dead Man Vs Big Baby. Is big baby bwahwaha? Even I can't figure that one out. Big baby may be leeching off the accolades his predecessors left behind and people are associatung him with another paragraph icon? I am now convinced this big baby fellow is a seperate entity. He has created some seperation with his recent verses. I don't see him in dull boys shadow anymore. Dead man is an icon around here. He's like the undertaker at wrestlemania, 20 and 0 or some shit, haven't watched live wrestling event in yearrs. Does Dead Man bring out old school paul bearer and tombstone the baby? Or is he going to ride the harley out, with a bald head, washed up and fuck up his knee on a chokeslam? Black was running on all cylinders last week but I think the people will need to see what hes made of this week going against a rookie out of high school. A LeBron james of sorts. This matchup has more at stake than advancement to another round. No. This match will decide the true king of the the open mic forum. This match up is ppv worthy. Looking forward.


(R)Nigma vs. (21)oXus
Nigma can write. Occasionally, he will drop a free flowing waterfall flow. When he is at his peak form, he can be a very tranquil read. Oxus aka English. A very articulate writer who delves in the art of intri***ies and peculiarities. A cunning linguist. Goodluck to both writers. I got Nigma winning the whole tournament.

(2)Pent uP vs. (7)Lars
Combined stats, this match is top 10 in the wirld of text topicals. Two writers with storied pasts. Baron Mynd, a brilliant mind, read up him in his hay day. Pent uP a veterans veteran, almost gets a pass but has proven to be a household name. Always an abstract read. Lars has been the posterboy, rocking the avy and all. He has shown strides of the old rstl days but for the most part he is now a refined shadow of his former self. Pent up stepped it up last week with October feast. Which was, echoing others, a slight improvement from the previous week. Both writers are well oiled and running now on all cylinders so they should collide at full speed in a double knockout headbutt. These two have been on Netcees all this time and now its time to see who the real rstl netcee representative is (excluding talent).

(3)Vulgar vs. (R)oats

I like oats. He's Hawaiian. He writes his shit sipping coconut he climbed up into the tree to get, maybe he threw a rock or something, not to keen on the coconut gathering methods. He probably does that wierd shit with his hand. You dont know if hes trying to give you a thumb up or hes trying to pinky promise you something. Vulgar is One of the most creative writers I've come across. A melting pot writer whos plot thickens to a stirr so dense it cracks the wooden oar. I got Vulgar. I have not read much by oatmeal but he is another writer who must step up to the plate and deliver to solidify his argument for topical hierarchy.

.

There are moments that define you.

This is one of them.

Goodluck.

Based on my predictions from earlier, I'll say oats beats big baby in the title match. Bags may or may not be involved.

I thought i'd done this already, no?

deadman vs big baby is a complete style clash, both vividly vague in their approach, these topics suit both of their styles I think. dead man can beat most on their day, but big baby's proven himself to get this far.

I give the slight edge to deadman because I've been crew with him longer. they both the homies lol.

nigma and oxus - again, two dope styles, i'm a big fan of enigmas writing. I think I voted his piece in the hall of fame open mic section? brilliant creative writer. oxus has never got the respect he deserves here, dude has fought his way into this bracket. his rhymes are crisp and storytelling intense, in a toss up i'll edge it to oxus.

vulgar and oats - again, two great battlers, two of the best doing this. vulgar is notorious, I've known of him from rapflava days, but oats from his RB run where he was wrecking heads. again, similar styles, but with their own unique stamps on them. I think in this one i'm leaning towards oats by a hair.

[oats]

@Vulgar ext cool? Tomorrow is the 2 year anniversary so idk if I'm gonna be able to write much.
