    <div class="quote_poster">Chutney Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">I'm running out of ideas on how to deal with all these unexplained absences. The easy way is to give Karma another bye. I don't like it though. My idea is to have the 3 losers of the 2nd round (AF, J_Ray, phunDamentalz) submit a single verse that's 20 lines in a seperate thread. The verse should try to convince everyone why they deserve a 2nd chance and just try to do the best job of showing their superiority. The judges will vote on who's is the best and the winner goes faces Karma. That battle will be like 2 verses, because Karma seems busy and we've wasted so much time.

    The thing I need is confirmation from those 3 people as well as Karma. You've seemed busy Karma, so if you feel like you can't hold your spot don't be afraid to step down. What does everyone think?

    It really doesn't matter to me, I just think it's a necessity to get this up and running again.

    Btw, what are you doing on my turf? Vacation?

    I agree. I didn't expect another absence and I was too busy to deal with it. At this point, I can see us sacrificing a little fairness just to get everything going (we all knew Karma was going to advance anyways... no offense Aznx).

    And yea, I'm here until next Friday on vacation.

    If it came down to what you proposed I'd be willing to do it.

    I'm all for it. J_ray, phunDamentalz and Air Fresh all deserve the chance, not to mention deserve the 3rd round even. I think it's a good idea, because giving Karma 2 byes is a little too much.

    Also, I find that the 1 verse to convince and 2 verses against Karma is also a good idea. Having a 3 way battle would take too long, and would be too confusing. Also, that way the winner will post 3 verses anyway; the one in the 3way and 2 against Karma. Great Idea Chutney!

    I sent a PM to the judges to finish up the voting. Don't know what to do about the last battle.

    K well the battles are all over except for the Karma one of course. I think now we can do that whole 3 way battle thing between Air Fresh, J_ray and PhunDamentalz. Ya'll need to submit a verse 20 line max to Chutney or something, then he'll post em all in a thread. People vote, the winner takes Karma.

    I think the competitions where people agree/challenge people to battles work better than the actually concept of a contest, because with contest there have to be set time limits. However, do to the different life styles many of us lead whats good for some is bad for others as far as time goes. Its easier for two people to agree on when they should battle and how long. Than for 16 people to agree on a set time limit over the course of a month. Just my two cents for future contests/rap battles.

    So do phunDamentalz, Air Fresh, and me all send PM's to Chutney so we can't use the stuff of people post before us then?

    (To J_ray's post)^^ Pretty much. Cause if you just did it straight up, the first person would be at a disadvantage because the other 2 can rebuttal while he can't.

    Also, if you want, you can PM it to me and I'll set it up. Chutney's probably busy with New Years stuff and right now I'm bored as hell.

    (To Carters post)Nope, its Karma vs. winner of the 3way. Then the winner of that faces me.
