Battles up Monday - Check In by Wednesday - Drop by Friday - Votes by Sunday

No line limit and the battler with most votes by Sunday night is the winner. If this is a topical battle, write a topical and not a poetic drop and the same is vice a versa.

All Battlers must vote on 4 other battles and leave their voting links in their battle thread. Battles voted on may be from either poetry or topical battles. If vote threads aren't in your poetry battle thread by sunday you will suffer a loss by Disqualification.

Extensions must be asked for by Thursday night by pming any of the mods (Acuity, Drama Queen & Elementality). No extensions will be given 4 if asked 4 on Friday night. Extensions are only given till Sunday night at the most. If you dont ask for an extention, and drop whenever you feel like it you will be DISQUALIFIED. Do not abuse extentions, they are not to be used if you're just too lazy to drop within the confines of the circumstances. Leave reasonable explanation for your absense. If the League notices you are a slacker due to this nature you will be banned for being out-right slothfully callous.

Every battler must nominate (not their own) one topical and poetry battle for pieces of the week, in the main forum . People with pieces of the week shall have their drops stickied and placed in the Pieces Of Inspiration sub forum

Don't ho-show because you will be banned if you do it twice. We can understand you cannot drop due to certain circumstances but if this happens a second time, you're banned from the league for 2 weeks. If you signed up for both leagues and you no-show in one league twice, you will be banned in both leagues!

Try to limit the freeposts, we will have a chat/beef thread for that. Also give fully explained votes, if not your votes won't count!

New Rule: 3-0 KO

Topic: Fight Night (Boxing)

Crawwwwwl...
SNAP! I hit the mat, the lights are back...
...at a glance, until my vision fades to black,
I roll over, clawing for something more,
down on all fours, reaching for the ropes, i implore,
an out of body experience, blood splatteres,
mind shattered, eyes burn into my soul asking "whats the matter?"
the crowd falls silent, as i fall in violence,
the end to my reign, the end to a tyrant,
I get to my feet, because fuck defeat and so...
I rise to my souls, ready to go, little did i know,
the night would end my life, with a devastating blow...

Fallllll...
"TEN!" shouts the Referee, who set me free,
and the mat dissapears, my eyes smothered in blood, can finally see,
My suicidal wife cries and why, i can understand...
she just lost the love of her life,
she just lost her fighting chance.

I'm sorry.

..The time has finally come with one adrenaline rush..
..Weeks of gruelling training, all for this final push..
..If i win i will finally gain some deserved respect..
..And can feed my family from the resulting paycheck..

..4 hours prior, the tension is rising, emotions are flying..
..This isnt sport, fuck pity the loser can end up dying..
..8 months training for this one fight to get the win..
..Suspense imminent, the nervous flood of thoughts begin..
..What if i lose, my children must fend for themselves..
..I cant help them out, just look down from higher realms..

..Crowds distant chants indicate the next bout is mine..
..Pray one last time and hope everything works out fine..
..I enter the ring and look my opponent up and down..
..It must be the adrenaline, his arms seem to have grown..
..His presence is monsterous, what chance have i got..
..I can hit him, he hits me, who you think will drop..
..My morale is lowered i am noway stable to fight..
..My family cheer me on, i wont dissapoint them tonight..

..I choose to fight, possibly the last decision i will make..
..This should never happen, never put my family at stake..
..This isnt about power, its deeper, the ultimate test..
..With one final praer i tie my gloves and hope for the best..

hopesfall had a short piece and the structure aint got shit to do with any topical verse, the approach was ok by you but seemingly basic, the vocabs weren't all that and the delivery of the topic cud be better, its like you dropped a no-show verse, there was some imagery and emotion in your piece but not enough to get the win.

daubs had overall the better verse, yeah he is still flowing with that text style structure and delivery but his verse had more complexity to it and i enjoyed it more, i felt that there was more feeling and thought put into his verse and he delivered the topic consistently with a nice verse.
