    Then why would you diss me for taking long, when you took long yourself? Talk about hypocrisy.

    I never dissed you for taking long, yet you couldn't come up with anything and dissed me in the battle and dissed me again when I said it doesn't take long to do a verse. Makes no sense.

    I'm done with the issue, true irony exposed in Gotskillz calling me slow and making excuse for why he took just as long. See you in the tourney homeboy.

    I may not be able to participate in this thing, because someone is trying their hardest to ban me. BS!

    I deleted all the unnecessary shots at one another.

    Let's try to keep the shots to a minimum; this is getting a bit out of hand.

    I understand what you're saying, however, I feel as if the situation could have escalated into something bigger. I don't mind a little trash talking here and there, but I think we were flirting with the inappropriate, so I deemed it necessary to delete a few posts. Besides, shouldn't we be posting things of that nature in the "discussion thread"?

    The so called "beef" would have added more spice to the actuals battles, but I'm not even in the same brackets as Gotskillz, MrJ, etc.

    Umair, I understand that you're busy, but you don't have to do all the lines at once. My point is that you can write a set of lines and then adjust them based on what your opponent gives you. For example, if you're going to write 15 lines, you can pre-write about 10 and no one will notice the difference. Then when you go to post them, you can read your opponents rap and get some material for the last couple of verses. And you can also adjust your pre-written ones accordingly. I'm going to be doing something similar to make sure I don't spend as much time on writing as I did in the last tourney. If you still find it too busy, I'll have to give Karma a bye or something, but I think you'll be able to manage.

    By the way, I encourage everyone who might be a bit busy in the upcoming weeks to do the same thing. Writing verses shouldn't be as time consuming as I see for a lot of you.

    I'll PM CLos soon about that last spot. And I'll probably give him the last spot or something.

    OK, we got CLos as a replacement for J_Ray (thanks for coming up on such short notice, CLos). But, this probably means the matchups will be different, because we can't just stick him in at J_Ray's old spot. It wouldn't be fair.

    Good news: We have 4 unranked battlers, so we can make the bracket fair to everyone. CLos will face S.Livingston14, and I'll just move everyone ranked below J_Ray up a spot.

    Bad news: I'm sure some people have pre-written some of their lyrics and this change is kind of sudden. I didn't want to change all the matchups so close to the start of the tournament, but J_Ray's sudden departure gave me no choice.




    EDIT: OK, so Umair is suspended for a little bit. So I think we might be forced to give Karma a first round bye.

    Yes.

    EDIT: I've got everything finished, but before I post it, I want to know if everyone is alright with Karma getting a bye. I know he wants to battle someone right away too, so I'm sorry to him and everyone else about these sudden changes. But, with two people suddenly leaving so close to the tournament, I had no choice.

    Umair should be free to post by Friday, so I don't think it's necessary to give Karma a bye.

    Is that setup like the NBA playoffs?

    1vs8
    2vs7
    3vs6
    4vs5
    ?
