WEEK IV CHAT/ PREDICTION:

[Inno]

Yo

Diablo vs asylum

NYCSPITZ vs Soulstice

Mr. J vs Ender

ACTIVATE SELF vs Objective

symetrik vs Innovator

Discuss!!

[symetrik]

Predictions:
uhhhh fuck. all the new ones from this round that I only half remember.
no predictions from me today.

gl all. maybe Diablo's gonna get his first vote from me xD FIND OUT SOON

[Mr. J]

Innovator pick my topic.

[Inno]

No I’m not doing that

[symetrik]

ayo, if I wanna put some indents in a piece, how do I do that on here, doesn't it strip the whitespace?

[Mr. J]

Don't be frightened little buddy

[Objective]

Diablo vs asylum - Haven't read that much from Asylum, but if Diablo brings his A game I he can beat anyone. 5-1

NYCSPITZ vs Soulstice - Tough pick and I think it'll be a close one but Solstice will be edging it. 3-4

Mr. J vs Ender - Another close one despite the votes ending in J's favor. Mr.J takes it in the end, 5-2.

ACTIVATE SELF vs Objective - I think this dude's style will be refreshing to the league, readers/voters and beat Objective with a dope concept and a more thorough story. 4-2 to Active Self.

symetrik vs Innovator - I think Symetrik is out for blood and wants to come back in with a win bringing his A game while Innovator is still a bit busy with Christmas/NYE shit so can't really find time to polish his verse with his kids and all that jazz that comes with it. Inno will come back twice as hard next week tho.

[MMLP]

NYC / Soul = BOTW

Diablo / Asylum could be interesting also

[YDK]

Whores

[ACTIVATE SELF]

Innovator Objective

I haven't really found much time to write since the start of the new year. I'll try to make some time today, but Friday's are kind of rough for me. I'm anticipating I might need a slight extention, if possible.

[Inno]

That’s cool bro as long as your opponent agrees ACTIVATE SELF

I’m sure it won’t be a problem. Try your very best though lol

[Diablo]

alright

[Objective]

Friday's are kind of rough for me. I'm anticipating I might need a slight extention, if possible.

I'm fine with the extension Innovator and ACTIVATE SELF, mostly because I could probably need it myself as well, haha. Enjoy your Friday, dude.

[Diablo]

It's late here but my verse is done, if asylum miraculously shows up I'll post ASAP tomorrow when I wake up so don't close our thread. I'm not working tomorrow so I may have a lie in haha!

[Mr. J]

I forgot who I am facing but he can have the ext

[Inno]

It's late here but my verse is done, if asylum miraculously shows up I'll post ASAP tomorrow when I wake up so don't close our thread. I'm not working tomorrow so I may have a lie in haha!

Sounds good bro

It’s looking he won’t show so YDK do u want to sub in and post tomorrow if he doesn’t show?

[Diablo]

I'll take YDK for sure since we didn't really get to battle in Black August, it all became a bit of a farce before Inno took over

so it would be good to set that straight with YDK

[Diablo]

I think inno granted a 24 hour ext which means 11.59pm tonight?

[ACTIVATE SELF]

Objective

Yo, bro, what happened to that pic we agreed on?

[Inno]

asylum preciate the effort fam
Diablo Objective ACTIVATE SELF Soulstice NYCSPITZ Ender Mr. J YDK

Yeah seem I have no choice but to extend the week until Sunday honestly as long votes come in by Tuesday I can still post battles Tuesday night so we would only be late by a day. I’m sure some of you are just getting back from break so it’s understandable, for now.

Be prepared for 1 vote battles being closed because of this.

Get it together godam it. You don’t post Sunday you out the league. I’m working on the mag fagots
symetrik I’ll post later today

[Diablo]

You can't decide battles after one vote LOL

[Inno]

Also next week CHAMP MATCHES START.

I’ve granted the extension pls show so we can have s successful first champ match week

Thank you.

[Inno]

You can't decide battles after one vote LOL

Lol let’s hope it doesn’t come down to that. I doubt it

asylum seem eager to vote this week.

[Diablo]

lmao asylum just get your verse up bruh

When will next week's verses be due?

[Diablo]

yeah that could mess things up for me too tbh

[Objective]

Yo, bro, what happened to that pic we agreed on?

Something happened to it? It should be in the topic thread.

[Diablo]

lmao I'm successfully trolling the NBL about their suspect bars while we wait for asylum to show

feel free to join in

[Inno]

When will next week's verses be due?

I was thinking Saturday would be the best day gives everyone 4 days to write and Sunday and Monday through the day to vote. Post battles Monday and get back on schedule

[Diablo]

lmao we can't get ppl to show with 5 days to write, let alone just four lol

easiest solution would have been an ext til Sat 11.59pm then keep things moving imo

otherwise we're just gonna get the same thing happen next week and get caught in a vicious cycle or only have one day of voting which no one is gonna want I shouldn't imagine

maybe a vote penalty is what's needed? if you're late you start the battle -1 down, if you don't vote on a battle you'll be -1 down the following week etc

[Inno]

Lord how do I please them all, take the wheel Jesus.

[symetrik]

time to just host "one day to write" week long tournaments.
monday - write first verses
tuesday - write second verses, vote on first battles
etc.

DO IT

[NYCSPITZ]

Yeah I'll take ext

Hopefully you remember me, but the last verse I read from you was against me over at pr where your verse was the shape of a frog. If it is you, glad you're back brother. I shall be signing in soon hopefully

Hey Adonis!

Yeah, I'm Ender from PR and I remember you. Is anyone else left from the PR days? Cormier, Sacrifice, Richard Corey, Nique, Blackjesus, etc?

Ha ha, I remember that Frog verse! It took me ages to get the text to format correctly when I posted! Hope you do join up mate, as always with leagues, the more the merrier.

[symetrik]

[Inno]

Good stuff sym your a gentleman

[Objective]

Muh votes r in

[Ender]

I've given votes and feedback on all battles. Is there a place to post voting links here?

[Objective]

I've given votes and feedback on all battles. Is there a place to post voting links here?

Usually we do have something like that or just go by the ol honor system where there's some leniency as long as people play their part. This time around tho we're doing anonymous voting where we send all the votes by PM to Innovator and he'll post them up without names after everyone has voted. This is done to prevent piggybacking off of other votes and/or hopefully not let someone elses vote steer a reader to a different direction. That's why you haven't seen any votes come in yet even though there's probably some votes in already.

However, dope that you voted on everything and thanks for the feed on the piece vs Self Activate. You definitely caught the vibe I was going for. The moon being the writer, the sun (members of NCs) which gives life to earth (the site/forum) which lights up the moon. The moon has its impact on earth but not to a great extent unless you remove the moon (writer) completely, then we're having an inhabitable earth/forum. I was kind of poking fun at certain dynamics in members of the site and they play a part in this picture. Witty has a fox as an avatar and its importance has been discussed a few times, so it's kind of jab at the fox howling at the moon with the tree (me & the reader of the verse) taking its spot, and Chyeaaa is one for conspiracy theories on this site so I tried to keep the next line a little bit themed around him. In the end we take a little bit from each other regardless what stance we're having with one common thing that binds us all: writing. With this in mind it kind of messes with the lines about paradoxes a little bit, hence the line: ''a link to the birth of worthless drama like 'who cuts the barber?''' that touches a little bit on that. But ye, I went a bit abstract with this one and not sure if the people that read it even caught it all. I can play around with concepts like this and at a point I even wanted to try to tie up ''a link to worthless drama'' to the link at the end as well but couldn't find a way to do it without being repetitive and linking the site twice so I dropped it.
Either way... The tree disrupts the view of it all, being all consuming in this picture and because of that I chose to just go all out and tell Innovator I'm voting for my opponent because the earth, sun and the moon is in harmony and I'll get nourishment from it all whether I lose or not. And we'll continue to grow and keep the cycle going year, after year, after year, and it's beautiful in its own sense. Diablo along with you also nailed what I was going for pretty well. Love the feedback from both of you and appreciate it a lot. Looking forward to read more from you, Ender, and see you progress further throughout the league. Welcome to NC's.

[King Ra.]

Ahh, I didn't know that about the votes. Will definitely go that route next round.

[Objective]

No worries King Ra, there isn't really any threads or first posts that informs new people to the league about it so there's no way you or Ender could have known unless you went through the archives. ^^

[Inno]

I GOT MAD VOTED YO.

[Objective]

symetrik, your feed made me laugh in a good way. I've played around quite a bit with poetry, written a couple sonnettes and a few other set form poetry pieces to post on poetry forums to see how they're received and/or if I could make the transition, and to see how it all strings together in that world of writing. Pretty cool that you picked up on it, lol. I feel like you're definitely on point with the criticism as well.

[ACTIVATE SELF]

I was planning on voting tonight.

Ahhh ...

I'll just hop back in when I have less on my plate to deal with.
