must admit confusion on this as well, although him hating me isnt that suprising. haters hate hahahaha.
That's today that he actually went viciously on the attack, which is good. Need to have attacks in these verses, and when not attacking, you should be setting up an attack. His attacks were all poor. They were smutty, lacked creativity, and were not very entertaining to watch. Basically the crap of hip hop. If you want to prove how the other people is bad, in the rebuttals, poke fun an turn a line back on them. Can't really do that in the opening verse. Personal attacks are obviously the best, but if you are going to use non-personal attacks, at least make them more creative than, "I fucked your mom", or "I killed you" whatever. Those are all horrible, and not fun to read. Also, we need to have a set # of lines per verse. And I would recommend cutting it down to 1 verse each, or 2 verses each at most (maybe give the person who goes first the option for a timely rebuttal, but if they don't rebuttal, it's only a 1 verse match).
These judges are pretty horrible, why don't they actually give proper criticism not just stupid one liners? (Got nothing to do with the verdict, I know I lost)
Majority of the time I explained myself, for now I just gave a one liner cause I am late for class and I need to leave now. Huevon can you PM the listed judges in the sign up thread? Thanks! Got to go!
Shake gave up, I made my ideas pretty clear in the BR/Chutney thread (there wasn't anything too interesting to say about the BR thread since Legacy seemed busy to me), and 1BE won by default because Smitty had to leave. I wasn't a big fan of either of you, but J_Ray's last verse retorted you directly pretty well and it was fleshed out better. Your last stanza also seemed generic whereas J_Ray was more creative with his allusions. It was more nuanced and innovative to me (ie como se llama). kthx. :[
I don't think we need to pm people for that, everyone here knows me and I don't want to clutter anyone's pm box. I just think it is more efficient this way, though I'll pm people if you insist.
"And I vote for Swish on this one." "felt umair should've attacked the lyrics of 1BE more rather than do what BG7 said, the proclaimation. Granted this was more difficult as two of BE's verses were out before umair joined, but... "1BE gets my vote." "Yeah I also didn't like how Jonah didn't rebuttal J_Ray's verse. Means that his last verse was simply out of desperation to crank one out. J_Ray for me." "I'm with BG7 on this one. Black Republican had pretty solid verses already, that combined with Legacy's lack of a response iced it." "Chutney's flows really flowed. It was very smooth and it moved along well, like he was telling a story. I want attacks, and not your played out attacks either. However, Chutney's verses overall were much better. Chutney ftw." Nothing more than two lines and you never give proper analysis; I guess I'm just used to reading judges who put effort into judge? Sorry I'm just saying if you're going to try and run and judge this tournament, you, and the other judges, should be putting in a big effort to judge these things, especially if you want us to do 3 verses each?
