Appocolyptiks Mag Weeks 1-2-3

IP: AF52 1D3D

Introduction

Hello and welcome to my commentary on this league. This isn't a mag as such, this is just a quick thread where I'm expressing some of my concerns and thoughts about PT. First of all thanks for reading and if you're in a battle this week then good luck, and drop hard. I'd like to express my appreciation to Troop and Tim who help run this league and close and set up new battles when I'm unable to. I know this league isn't as well organized as it should be but I'll be trying to rectify that over the next few weeks.

First and Foremost

What the fuck is with the voting here? For the most part it's appalling. Now I'm not pretending to be Jesus, I know I could pull my weight around here more but at least I leave decent feedback. I get very frustrated when people don't leave feedback to fellow writers work. I mean are you so up your own fucking ass that you are to help other writers elevate by letting them know what they're doing right and wrong? And then you get mad when no one votes in your battles. How long does it take to drop a decent vote? 5-10 minutes at the most? What the fuck else are you gonna spend that time doing? NOTHING else, that's what. If you have time to be online, you have time to vote. That's that, no if nor buts about it. You are not above voting, nor will you ever be. Stop thinking you're Shakespeare and show some humility. And also stop no showing. If you can't make a battle then let me know, don't just forget and not show. How gay is that? When someone else spends time and effort on a verse and the other lazy fag just doesn't show? I'll tell you how gay it is. It's gayer than Boy George in a leather outfit with red thongs on. So make sure you vote and make sure you show. That's all I ask. Two battles is enough for you to leave feedback on, is that really so hard?

I don't have time to review all of last weeks battles and most of them weren't that great anyway so I'll write some predictions for this week.

Predictions

Championship Match: Appocolyptik vs Troop
This should be a good battle, with both writers being good at topical and elevating. If both show and drop to their full capablity this should be battle of the week. I'm not sure who'll win but it will be close. Definitely one to watch out for either way.

Miss Behaving vs Crazy Hades
Another interesting battle here, it's Miss IQ of 182 vs RV's resident 14 year old boy who thinks he's master of the universe. Hades is renowned as dope on this site and his vocabularly is excellent. Miss Behaving has a unique storytelling style which maintains a good flow with tight imagery. I've got Miss Behaving taking this but I could be wrong. Hades has pubicly stated how wack Miss Behaving is and how easily he'll win. We'll have to see here, but I think he'll be left looking like a fool.

Kosta vs So Rell
If Kosta's who I think he is he'll ass rape So Rell. But So Rell is just battling because he wants to elevate at topical and because I asked him. Watch out for Kosta, if he keeps in the league he'll be champ within a few weeks in my opinion.

Dervla vs The Kid Sense
PT's local whipping boy against the ever respect Dervla. I can't see any other outcome other than KidSense no showing or KidSense being dominated like a down syndrome prostitute. Very one sided here folks, but TKS might suprise everyone and drop very hard. But like I said Dervla will win this one.

Wireless vs Malicious
I respect Wireless because he drops every week despite being faced with wack votes and no shows. Malicious is elevating but he's still not there yet. Wireless has been rushing every week but that's all he's had to do. Once he starts putting effort in and gets good opponents he'll be a force in this league.

Ennui vs JTR
I like Ennui, he's got a quiet and humble style about him but he's got some skill and given a bit of elevation will be up there challenging for the title. JTR's dope at text as we all know but I've never seen him do anything topical wise. He could conjure something dope here and destroy Ennui but I doubt it.

Tim vs Expo
Expo's another accomplished text head who's converted to topical and I expect he'll do well here. Tim however has been doing topical for a long time and I think his experience will carry him to victory. This could be interesting though and I hope both put effort into their verses.

KempoMRK vs Original
KempoMRK runs the LBL as we all know and is an excellent mag writer. Given his talent in literature I expect him to drop well, he's signed up to the RM league and gave Dark Nebula a very good battle so I hope he drops well here. Original however is a 2x RB hall of famer and I think his experience will see him winning.

Willnova vs I Am Unreal
Will is elevating and I like the fact he drops every week and votes in battles. He shows good use of multies but needs to work on the complexity of his concepts. Unreal shows very good use of metaphors and is the more accomplished writer. I think Unreal will take this comfortably with stronger imagery and more creative metaphors.

Interview with Miss Behaving

Appocolyptik:
Interview commencing 16:06
Appocolyptik:
Hello Miss Behaving, thank you for your time
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
Greetings ^_^
Appocolyptik says:
I just want to ask a few questions so first of all, what do you think of your chances against Crazy Hades this week?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
well firstly, id like to wish him goodluck lol
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
he can be a pretty good writter and the pictures for topic this week are excellent so it should be a very nice battle
Appocolyptik says:
Indeed, how do you feel about his comments on you. In particular 'I don't care if she rushed it, it fucking sucks'?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
id be tempted to say something offensive in return, but ill just let my drop speak for me
Appocolyptik says:
That's always best. I've never heard you say a bad word about anybody really and that's one of your admirable traits.
Appocolyptik says:
Who do you think's gonna be a force in this league this? Judging from what you've seen?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
Thats a very difficult question to answer, there are some good writters there and id be very hard pressed to say who'd win it, especially as the topics have been so varied and the range has posed a challenge for some
Appocolyptik says:
Good response, is there anyone who's stood out for you at all?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
I think this week will bring out the best in a lot of people so I chose to reserve comment
Appocolyptik says:
I've got my eye on Crazy Hades, Yourself, I Am Unreal and Kosta this week. I think you vs Crazy Hades should be battle of the week.
Appocolyptik says:
Haveyou ever had a role model or someone who's inspired you in your writing?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
I have many people whose work I find inspiring, I enjoy people who build atmostphere with there work, Thomas Hardy is a good example
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
also I find some songs inspiring. "Bright Eyes" have some incredibly deep lyrics
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
writing that makes you feel

>^..^< (*very much in love*) is inviting you to start Application Sharing. Do you want to accept (Alt+C) or decline (Alt+D) the invitation?

>^..^< (*very much in love*) has canceled the invitation to start Application Sharing.

Appocolyptik says:
Do you sometimes use writings to release your feelings. Say you had a bad or frustrating day would you take out your anger in your writing>?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
writing is a beautiful mode of expression and it can help to release stress. I use writing as a means of escape, you can do whatever you want to with the written word and thats an amazing thing to realise
Appocolyptik says:
It is, what's the most common emotion you use in your writtens?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
anything negetive, they make for a better read lol
Appocolyptik says:
Yes that's true
Appocolyptik says:
what would you say your biggest achievent in writing is?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
ive had poetry pubished and won contests for it, but I think the one im most proud of is having one of my pieces put onto an audio book for the blind, its a nice idea to know that someone who couldnt enjoy the written word was being given the opertunity to experience it
Appocolyptik says:
I never knew that, it's obviously better to have your writing recognized in the real world than on a website. I mean what good is "yo I beat swift nigga 341 at topical" in the real world?
Appocolyptik says:
Have you ever beat anyone you're proud of in a battle?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
I dont tend to remember whether I win or lose a battle, I only remember the things ive written if I like them, but im my own worse critic lol
Appocolyptik says:
I hate it when you get loads of good responses and then someone says 'Oh this was wack, you did this this and this wrong'. It crushes your confidence
Appocolyptik says:
Is there any piece of critique that sticks out in your mind?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
the one I get most often is people say my writting is too short. Its not short, its consise
Appocolyptik says:
Haha, people often say that about Camaracs work.
Appocolyptik says:
So, were you in RB's Sacred Scriptures at any point?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
for a few weeks, but I left the league as I kept getting on showed on *audience goes arrrrr*
Appocolyptik says:
No shows really piss me off as I expressed in my mag. Doesn't it drive you mad?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
I hate no shows, I think its unfair on the other person. The only excusable reason is if you die (and then you need a note from your mother to prove it)
Appocolyptik says:
lmao as ever you are most sensitive.
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
^_^
Appocolyptik says:
Does your online life ever majorly affect your real life?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
I live online
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
id never leave my puter if I had my way
Appocolyptik says:
But then how would you get weed ?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
www.weed-delivered-to-your-door.com
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
lol how many kids are going to try that link LOL
Appocolyptik says:
Just about everyone who reads this interview I hope
Appocolyptik says:
Ah, I won't let people know where the link ends up
Appocolyptik says:
If they want free weed they can go to www.meatspin.com
Appocolyptik says:
So thank you for your time, I like the keep interviews short and sweet. Is there anything you'd like to add as your closing comments?
>^..^< (*very much in love*) says:
only to wish everyone in the league goodluck and make sure they drop something delicious this week as im looking forward to reading them ^_^
Appocolyptik says:
Thank you Elizabeth, I have enjoyed talking to you =)
Appocolyptik says:
Interview Ended 14:50




Best battle of the league so far...


Appocolyptik vs Jonathon



The Hand that Helped me Fall

Last known words of Azael, former prince of the watchers…

In Heaven we lived, amidst consummate displays of affection
Where even the worst of sections were still paragons of perfection
W/ The Lord who made a range of diction depicted in the greatest pictures
Ablaze with written saintly visions predicted in the Sacred Scriptures
A song of praise encrypted with genius displays converging prior
To the surge of Angels sacredly burning ablaze to emerge from fire
We stood as light in the dark, shields of defence against infernal
Shining w/ amaranthine ambience unrelenting and sempiternal
Such was the life of an Angel, to serve in their deserved ascension
To endlessly follow & never question the flaws of the Lords intentions
And it caused dissension even paradise was a place of parasites
W/ rage the disgraced would envision waste with their harried eyes
And Lucifer…
The serpent complete with a belief that God spoke with deceit
With conceit he conceived the plan that left him broke w/ defeat

Thy God be damned! Thy creator who stands corrupted and foolish
The one would ask us to worship Adam... and is utterly clueless!
My brothers burnish your rage, and unmake in an earnest display
Since when doth the craftsman of fire start to worship his clay!
Since when doth the writer clutch his pen in reverence kneeling
Before the page, penitently bowing before his creation w/ feeling?
Be free of thy chains my brothers! And In freedom absorb the fact
That the one who would hold you for love…
…Is the one who would hold you back!


The heart of the Universe bled falling w/ tears of despair that were all ignored
And with my hands soaking in the blood of Angels I sought the fall of the Lord
Killing Guardians with an empty gaze, I watched all hopes of redemption fade
W/ Lucifer I slaughtered the righteous and put and end to pretentious ways
But Lucifer fell… & still envisioning Heavens waste with my harried eyes
The true Lord confronted me and triumphantly cast me from paradise
Yet Hell was the true Heaven, my name was spoken w/ prominence
Feeding on the souls of the wicked I ruled w/ my brothers in dominance
But such is the worth of brethren w/ their perception the worse was leavened
They showed me it was better to reign in Hell… than to serve in Heaven
In forgotten penitence I shed remembrance and answered to Satan’s Call
Free of the past at last I became free and grasped the hand…

…That helped me fall


vs

The Blade That Wouldn’t Cut


The past of this man, with a capsule blade in his hand
Hard for one to understand the pain he has went through
To live the life of a being, whose whole life has been bland?
But who knew, today his day’s end could possibly pursue
His troubles kept piling on one another, making it hard
For his brain to function correctly as hours kept passing
He goes to rehab; it only mocks the pain, scabs start to scar
As feelings commence, frustration and hatred remain clashing
If he had one wish, I’d be to get rid of this, and he can soon
With a deadly sip, with water in his glass, the pill is gone
Of course he knew what he did; he’ll be luck to last till noon
This poet seeks help, his pen and paper will help him move on

I’m dieing, I miss
My life, no longer exist
This thing, killing me
Within, did I commit a sin?

My rib cage aches
Lord forgive my mistakes
And why I do this
I regret it, I now fall abyss.



He awakens, losing all memory to where he was found last
Lost track of time, his name, and everything else in this world
Brain fried, know why? No clue where he was, forgotten past.
On top of all this, his body dismantled, suchlike it’s been hurled
Was this the work of an angel? The dose should have killed
Hells gates must have been full, and the heavens are filled
Or was it just luck? The pill should have just killed him, but
This setting would be known, as the blade that wouldn’t cut

No the rankings in the mag were POWER RANKINGS, I.e the top 10. But yeah I forgot about Pak having a win. I'll edit it now and put an interview in.

Yeah, nice to see you kept bias out of there.

IQ of 182? Yeah, bro...I bet. I'd really, really enjoy seeing proof that she is one of the smartest people alive.
