i think this would make a good thing to add to accomplishments (don't know if you do it here, just thinking about ria) because audio heads get song of the week and shit like that. there should be botw, botseason, votw, and votseason.
will edit in my votes later
botw - i thought ink vs vulgar deserved this from the battles i voted on
votw - i think cereal killa's piece was my favorite from what i read

BOTS and VOTS would be dope, the other two would water down accomplishments I think, with 14 week seasons

BOTW is easily Pohfig v. RedGlare
VOTW - Cereal Killer so far.. for me.
And Honestly, we should look for VoteOTW as well lol
Split's breakdown of Pohfig v Redglare was spectacular IMO
BOTW Frank vs. Zygote. Both came amazing this week.
VOTW is a tough one really. I'd say either Frank or Red glare

I don't think this should be going on while battles are still open. don't feel right. voters are so easily swayed. BOTW ok. but not VOTW. not cool
Red glare

yeah i was thinking the same thing. it creates a false illusion of perfection. puts a lot of pressure on the reader to vote under pressure which may hinder their thinking ability.

BOTW- for the awkward schism between voters, the opposing approaches, higher level writing, clash of styles and the forethought behind each verse I say BOTW is easily Red glare vs. pohfig
VOTW- I wanted to pick Pohfig but felt too ambivalent on his metaphorical meaning. I wanted to pick Witty, too, but didnt like the conclusion very much. Then it became clear as I read battles I haven't voted on
Adonis easily. Beautiful.

lol @zenland
votw: redglare
botw: pent vs bent
wow there are 3 ppl in this league that layer there ish more then 2levels deep besides me..
and what i mean by that is hidden easter eggs, so depending on what you pick up in the verse is depending on how you look at the outcome..
this verse has i think 5-6 layers.. he has two.. not one but two stories joining up with one moral outcome.. And the trick with him and these other two writers is to be able to write these layers in without you (the reader) needing to get them, to still understand the meaning of the verse/point they are making..
i know how hard this is to keep clarity my "dream sequence" verse that other week has something like 10+ layers and then i was like oh why didnt anyone get it.. cause i over cooked that chook.. he kept it around 6 and it was a beautiful piece of writing..
so VOTW hands down REDGLARE
well down mate..
