Keystyle Firday?
 

I originally saw this idea done on b-boys, and it looked like it might be an alright activity for heads on this site as well. Now I saw they tried to do something like this in the Open Mic forum, but Blunt'Ed. doesn't know how to run things. I aslo saw Nos had an idea like this a while back, but nothing ever happened from it.

This is my variation of "Keystyle Friday".

How it'd go down:
First off, this is all text. Why? Because the majority of this site is still text. Still a moron? Because most audio heads on this site would need more than 10 minutes in order to record a freestyle and get the quality to their liking.
And yes, I said 10 minutes.
Every Friday, a thread would be created for sign-ups for that week's battle. For the first week, 2 text heads would be chosen at random to face off against each other. Then a thread would be made for their battle. How would we know it's a keystyle? After the creation of the thread, each battler would have 10 minutes to drop or they would lose by no-show, no exceptions. Other heads casually browsing the Lyricist Lounge (which is why it should be held in this forum) would vote on who they think won. Voting would probably end the same night, or maybe sometime Saturday. Then the next week, there would be another sign-up thread, to determine the challenger.
If a battler can go undefeated for three weeks, his/her reign would end, and the spot of champion would be open to 2 new battlers the following week. After stepping down from being champ, he/she would be elligible to compete again. However, it would take a while to be accepted as a challenger, so more heads could get a chance.

That's the basic layout of it all. So, what do you guys think?

sounds pretty cool..if it can be done smoothly with people co-operating....it could turn out pretty fun

but lets do it on friday instead :love:

i think that's dope. But you should let champion reign be longer than 3 weeks. maybe even make it go on for as long as he wins. Iunno, that's just my opinion. everything else sounds dope.

Make it 7 minutes and I think you will be good. How many lines?

If that were the rule, why don't we just make it something like "9th Degree's weekly keystyle battle" or something? 'Cuz you know once the right person wins, they'll keep winning for like 6 months. With the 3 week rule, it would give more heads a chance to participate.

lmfao @ the name. lmao word I feel you. but atleast more then 3. Don't you think 3's too little? maybe 5?

but aactually, it'd actually be kinda cool tho. Cuz it's jus like for some of the sports like boxing or w/e. If you're the champ, you're the champ for as long as you can keep winning. But seeing as this, is really not like a big competition thing, but more like a thing just to give people a chance to battle, and not the same people over and over. I agree.... word

Yea...it's a good idea.

^ It's funny, we've actually been agreeing on things lately, lol

Yeah, we already had something where you battled the same people over and over. It was called the KLL HW Title match, and always included 2 of the following 3 battlers: 9th Degree, hotshh!, and Fuxjustaword.

lol @ Firday...

brings sashe and moccosins...

but werd, if it was in Friday, it would be killer.

datz a good idea...dis should go down but alot niggaz would lose cuzz they cant come up with shit dat quick

its a koo concept, but everyone's jus gonna pre-write their shit
whoever's the champion will have a week to prepare a "keystyle"
also, u'd have to make sure that both people were online in those 10 mins, so there's gon be hella no-shows

Il always be down...but on fridays am out til late?
