1. oats vs. 9. Certain | “We cannot wait for the storm to pass over. We must learn to dance in the rain.”
5. King Ra. vs. 4. Vulgar | “What would you do if you knew you could not fail?”
14. YDK vs. 6. Adonis | “True change takes place in the imagination.”
7. timeless vs. 2. Vividlyvague | “If a man wants his dreams to come true, he must wake them up.”

[e11even]

Let's do what we do.

[Vulgar]

Tbh

[YDK]

Dopeness

[Perpendicular]

Anyone want a friendly battle?

[timeless]

So is there any tourneys happening after this?

Whos gonna run season 4?

[Adonis]

So is there any tourneys happening after this?

Whos gonna run season 4?

We decided on a tourney after this. Then we might go with writers challenge league two before season 4. Not sure about that though

[Adonis]

Oats over certain. Botw though easy. Should be close, I just know certain hasn't been able to come full strength due to time constraints so.

I'm gonna go up set and take jah over vulgar actually. Clash of styles, depends on which style vulgar goes with, but should be fun. All hinges on whether jah comes full strength honestly.

YDK will beat me, followed by my extreme climax

I want to go timeless over vivid. I have this hunch that time is peaking in the playoffs, while vivid is no slouch, just my hunch

[YDK]

I'm gonna lose on purpose just so you don't get that climax tbh

[big baby]

Tough to call on all battles. @ me if you need votes. Or insight

:( omg certain you make bb da little bb cry?

Why







Why

[oats]

Well that fight was exactly what I feared/knew it was gonna be. Seeing your childhood icon get demolished is especially hard when they're in a combat sport.

[Certain]

I don't know. Watching Roger Federer hit potential winners into the net in that fifth set was pretty brutal for me.

[oats]

Yeah but that was an epic match. BJ just got completely demolished. I was really hoping Fed would pull it off though.

[King Ra.]

Djokovic that nukka.

[Split]

Deseret wasn't even sweating. Djokovic was falling all over himself. Surprised to see it went how it did

[PancakeBrah]

Been rereading 'Freedom'. I like it more than The Corrections. Which would seem like a hipsterish opinion yo have but it's genuine

[oats]

Been rereading 'Freedom'. I like it more than The Corrections. Which would seem like a hipsterish opinion yo have but it's genuine

never read either, The Corrections is on the to-read list though. You can't argue the taste, as they say.

[Certain]

I've been planning on getting to Freedom but have a few ahead of it. I'm reading Jeffrey Eugenides' The Marriage Plot right now. I think you'd both like it.

[King Ra.]

Book life.

[Adonis]

Your name inspired me Bruhv

My younger daughter now calls me Jah instead of dad


Winning!!!

[oats]

Book life.

no joke, one of my main anxieties with my upcoming move to Korea is how many books I'll be able to take with me. god I've become such a nerd in these post-college years

[King Ra.]

Adonis lmao. Gawd power, son. Sir oats, how does one become Sir oats?

[King Ra.]

Will pick it up srs.

Feels good to read again.

[Witty]

Nothing nerdy about reading and enjoying books...it's called not being a complete moron, but sadly, because most people are complete morons, those who read books are referred to as 'nerds'....don't label yourself as such because then you are empowering the morons.

Nothing scarier than a moron with power.

[Witty]

The fox going on vacation for a while btw folks.

Witty isn't, but the fox is.

[Certain]

The fox is a nerd.

[Witty]

The fox is a nerd.

Certain, plz.

[Vulgar]

I thought this was due Friday.

[Certain]

I thought this was due Friday.

That would've been 11 days to write. Seems like a bit much ...

[Fig]

Where do I sign in

[Certain]

Where do I sign in

Hi, ill fig-A. How is life as a high school graduate treating you?

[Fig]

Hi, ill fig-A. How is life as a high school graduate treating you?

Its fucking grand. I wake up to blond beauties suckin on mah nuts every day. Then I fart propel myself out of my bed, through my closet, and into my new attire. I ride Patty downtown to greet my fans, who are mostly black, and kiss all their babies. While I watch TV, the people on the show im watching recognize me through the screen. That one might actually be psychosis though.

[Eŋg]

oats you're moving to korea?

[YDK]

dropped :D

an wtf oats don't move to korea they'll eat your pets!

[King Ra.]

Cat/dog.

[YDK]

I fuckin love that show

[King Ra.]

Nah, it was lame to me. Lol.

[King Ra.]

Time for me to get this piece finished and post. Hopefully everyone drops this week. I will be giving extensive breakdowns.

[Vulgar]

arghh

[Fig]

arghh

The stuff that no shows are made of

[YDK]

Nah, it was lame to me. Lol.

OMG that is blasphemy! Who doesn't want to watch a show about a cat an dog that can't be separated? I even tied my cat to my pit to try an recreate it lol poor cat

[King Ra.]

YDK.... I worry about you sometimes. Only sometimes.

[YDK]

I don't :D
That cat was laid to rest in a yellow kitty litter container after getting shot in the head with a 22 :( he was old an literally couldn't walk like he just dragged his back legs around. Lil dude was a soldier tbh

[Certain]

I'm not going to close battles until I wake up tomorrow morning, but that doesn't mean the deadline isn't 3 a.m. Eastern, midnight Pacific.

This alert is for oats, Adonis, Vividlyvague, Vulgar and King Ra.

[YDK]

Adonis

[Vulgar]

The stuff that no shows are made of

[King Ra.]

Lmao.

[YDK]

Queso dip an tortilla chips after coming off my percs buzz. Its a good night

[oats]

I'm working on it, ran into some technical difficulties. not gonna no-show though

[Adonis]

Adonis

In the native tongue

Salude

[YDK]

Had me thinking you was gonna no show man lol

[YDK]

I think I missed something on my hiatus from the league...when did paragraphs take hold as a normal structure lol

[e11even]

It was always there, but it's more a hipster thing to do now. I let my fingers and random thoughts pave the way for me. Especially at this point in my slump.

[Adonis]

So Zenland is ahead of his time. Dope

[YDK]

Word lol I almost used it this week too tbh but figured I better not risk it and save it for a new season where I can afford to lose lol

[oats]

I don't know what it is, but I can't seem to rhyme in paragraphs. I like to read them and think they can be dope, but it's just easier/better for me to write it normally.

[YDK]

Yeah same here oats, I can do the paragraphs sometimes if I have the right concept but I just don't prefer it lol

[e11even]

I guess I just said fuck it.

[Certain]

I change my formatting for my content.

[YDK]

I haven't found content I can't display with the stanza format yet. I may use it soon tho just to do it

[YDK]

Certain votes are due tomorrow night at midnight Pacific time right? My word schedule as me confused with the days now lol just wanna make sure I need to vote when I get off tomorrow

[Certain]

YDK, yes.

[YDK]

Coo thanks man

[oats]

[Certain]

Don't forget to vote, YDK, Adonis, oats, Certain, timeless, Vividlyvague and King Ra.

[YDK]

I wont, just got home from work an my girl is taking my daughter to the hospital because of a fever so i'm at home with my son an will be voting after dinner

[King Ra.]

The fuck is up.

[YDK]

is that the same as saying the jig is up?

[YDK]

gawd damn at the certain/oats battle

[Pinot Grij]

It's a damn shame that one of them is going out on the strength of those verses.

[Certain]

Pinot Grij, let me know if you'd like me to feed any verses.

[YDK]

yeah I kno lol that coulda been a champ match all on its own.
there should be an award for battle of the season/playoffs to recognize battles like that tbh

[YDK]

and btw my votes are in :D

[Pinot Grij]

Pinot Grij, let me know if you'd like me to feed any verses.

Just supporting the tourney, bro. Haven't written anything in ages.

[Certain]

My bad bro. I don't have it any me. Worked my body and soul to hard this week and won't be off til Sunday. Been pulling massive chunks of hours with little sleep the past couple weeks. I tried to read them and I can't even keep the eyes open. If they are open tomorrow I promise I can vote around 4ish, regardless of you need mag work holler. Free time Sunday then I'm out of town for a week stuck in a hotel so I'll be real free

[Certain]

This dude Vividlyvague thinks Frank invented writing.

[Split]

[Certain]

I'm going to extend voting anyway. Need more than four votes on battles.

[Split]

lel then voting tomorrow its late

[patrown]

aight they might be quick but ill vote right now. gotta take a quick trip to the store in aminute with my bro but i will vote on all matches.

[patrown]

just read post. will give three legit votes by tomorrow night.

[e11even]

This dude Vividlyvague thinks Frank invented writing.

When in Rome, Certain. When I first came in the AOWL, I was instantly Frank just off storytelling alone. I was never as neat or detailed, but Frank was the comparison. Call my vote me paying it forward :)

[e11even]

I was stressing over three votes til I realize there are only two battles I'm eligible to vote on. THANG YOU VULGAR :). Netflix children show time.

[Split]

why is vividlyvague frank? they write different

[Mike Wrecka]

everyone knows that vividlyvague is oats , duh

[e11even]

I wuv ewe all.

[oats]

everyone knows that vividlyvague is oats , duh

lol a memorable chapter of AOWL. I still can't believe so many people actually thought that was the case. Vivid is dope and all, but our writing styles couldn't be more different.

[Witty]

I was gonna change my name to vaguelyvivid but I forgot and I just remembered right now.

[Certain]

Witty and Mike Wrecka, please vote.

[Certain]

big baby, if you're available to help with voting, I would be very appreciative.

[King Ra.]

Certain I'm voting now.

[oats]

Certain big baby who you guys got in Canelo vs. Lara?

[Certain]

Erislandy Lara really should be undefeated and a much bigger name. His loss to Paul Williams (one of my favorites) was a travesty.

[oats]

Erislandy Lara really should be undefeated and a much bigger name. His loss to Paul Williams (one of my favorites) was a travesty.

I heard about that fight but never watched it. I've only seen highlights of Lara, admittedly.

[big baby]

Personally? I'm sort of leaning towards Canelo. I think Canelo has improved dramatically even from a few bouts ago when facing FMJ. Lara obviously deemed much more crafty, quicker, etc. Can see both hitting canvass. Very excited oats

[big baby]

Who more than FMJ to experience speed and defence if not from FMJ. It's the equivalent of having Lara facing, a heavy hitting slick conventional puncher. I'm saying, Canelo has faced more of what Lara is, than Lara facing someone like Canelo.

[big baby]

Lara looks relaxed, but Canelo looks like he was born in there. Lara boxing beautifully. I have it even after 2.

[oats]

Certain I'm voting now.

:-/

[King Ra.]

I dropped a vote in oats/Certain. The other match ups seemed already decided.

[King Ra.]

Actually gonna check out timeless/Vivid right now. Don't close.

[big baby]

TALKING BOXING NOW, WTF DONT SWITHC TOPIC U FUCKS OR ELSE I NEVA ANSA AGAIN

[big baby]

how can you score it that lopsided at 117-111? That's insane. I stopped scoring after 10 when it was just back and forth.

[Certain]

Miguel Cotto vs. Canelo Alvarez could produce the Mexican-Puerto Rican war that the white people have been hoping for.

[big baby]

I was at the Cotto fight. It was fun. That will be a hell of a match, because they both want blood. Lara/Martinez are both a bit more evasive than their victorious counterparts. Cotto/Canelo are a bit more straightforward.

[YDK]

watchu no bout Kentucky tavern

[King Ra.]

Done. Good reads. Holler later.

[YDK]

peace bruv

[YDK]

btw now that the battles closd I tghink patrown was the only vote to really get what I was goin for wiv my verse but the rest were close lol thanks for voting on all the matchs everybody

[Certain]

Round 3 will be up tomorrow at some point.

http://i.imgur.com/BfBepC2.gif

[YDK]

damn def not what anybody expected this late in the playoffs lol

[oats]

Nah that's pretty much how I had it

[patrown]

well i typed this up already so i'm going to just put it here...
timeless - man. i really liked this piece. reeeal sick. you pulled the dream intro off really well, im not hating on the space it took up.. didnt feel it was wasted at all. this was dope.
They got Jesus too, heard he got some freakish moves.
lol. you got some sick flow bro. really. but i didn't get this line..
turns out that the devil's blood is miraculously white.
? anyway, the card game was a little vague. then you really went off on a tangent. i have no idea what you're talking about. but i liked it. i liked it enough to not care what you were actually talking about. it was dope.
favorite set..
Zoom in on the eyes of destruction as I describe this
event I was not on time with. Nor did I cosign it.
I designed it with intent to reach the sky with.
Now climb in and take a ride with me as I rewind bliss : ...

cosign it, reach the sky with. that sounded great. enjoyed the rhymes in this set very much as well..

Wrong. Your whole solution is criminally insane, deranged.
That explains the world today in vein, pain is not tamed to behave.
Vividlyvague - felt like a freewrite to me. enjoyed it though. favorite section..
Am I too old to grasp this passion to pass it to my hatching offspring? No idea, but this is plaguing me and that's the problem. Puppets of destiny with frayed cables in my subconscious are begging reanimation... procrastination rears it's noggin.
catchiest lines..
I'm feeble yet great, feeding to fates that are less awesome. I need to be vague.
that was dope as fuck. i like how you still hit the topic with a "i'm dope" drop. well, "i'm vv" anyways. pretty clean bro. really liked it.
/v timeless took it by a significant margin. much more complete, well rounded.

[YDK]

Nah that's pretty much how I had it

I doubt you had me getting past Frank lol

[oats]

I doubt you had me getting past Frank lol

I SAID ITS EXACTLY HOW I HAD MY BRACKET KUHN


plus I have everyone beating frank.

[YDK]

That's the best motto I've ever heard in my entire text career. Frank loses

[King Ra.]

Lmfao.

[Adonis]

My bad bros on not voting. I thought I had free time yesterday, but I had a wedding to go to so that killed my voting times. Shall drop solid feed next round.
