Line Limit?

Adverse · 05-01-2022, 12:50 AM

Had a lot of feedback about the line limit this week and was wondering what you all thought about it, have a poll with a couple options here trying to see what works best for everyone. Let me know!

30 should be for normal weeks and 60 max for contender and important matches imo.

my old site we had a word limit to avoid the walls of text.

You're a great mod Addy.

60 sounds good to me. Not too much, not too little and although my preferred length is 100 60 is the sensible option. 40 is on the lower side imo, sounds like poetry-length rather than topical to me. People, myself included, should get better at not breaking shit down as much tho. Things can be said to give the vote instead of having to break down entire verses. Just mentioning what you liked/didn't like, "Mid portion to x was fire while first and last kinda meh. A bit of weird phrasing here and there to y-rapper, concept about life/death and pacing was better in x-writers verse while y was jumping a bit with what seemed like lack of direction and proper conclusion but one-liners were top notch stuff. Vote goes to x-writer for the overall quality being better."

I fell asleep on the couch yesterday. Voting Dominate vs Eviction now.

64 or 48

im with frank - 40/60 cool even a sweet 20 works if done correctly

thats pure super saiyan and thats not including internals so say you wrote a verse like that twenty lines you would flush out any cat at any given time.. imo

For me, was tough voting this week, it seemed like each one I voted on was 100 lines. Really don't care though, however, please don't change the minimum, because I will continue to write about 20 lines or if I post last match if it's close to that

Thanks @Candy @Dominate I’m just trying to do what’s good for the gander you know? Hard enough running a league and maintaining an audience let alone doing that when the rules piss everyone off lol
@Adonis the minimum wouldn’t change, just the max.we’re pretty neck and neck with people either wanting to lower the limit or keep it the same, so we’ll see what happens. I think 60 has been working tbh just wanted to give everyone a voice
