NE: 8. Formal Logic vs. 9. Urizen

[Baron Mynd]

All rules that are applied in the league will also be enforced for regulating the tournament. If you're not familiar with the rules of the RSTL, please read them HERE!:
New Rules / Changes

The only difference will be that in this tournament, your opponent will get to pick your topic for you. Topics must be picked and posted within the match thread within 1 day. If it's not posted, the opponent of the person that didn't pick a topic in time will get to choose his/her own topic.

One more additional rule and this one is crucial so you all need to be aware of this. If you do not vote, you will not advance in the tournament at all. I don't care how many votes you're winning by, you will need to vote to advance on 4 matches weekly. When the league re-opens, these 4 matches will include voting on league matches. And in the elite 8 before the league reopens, there will be only 3 matches to vote on. That will be the only exception, but all 3 matches will require your vote. Voting matches a tie will not be permitted and won't count as a vote.

Topics will be up Tuesday 12am PST every week and topical choices are due Wednesday 12am PST and verses are due Sunday 12am PST, 3am EST, 8am Greenwich with votes due Tuesday 12 am PST, 3am EST, 8am Greenwich

Also, there will be no recycling allowed. Nothing you've ever posted anywhere online will be allowed. The mods will be checking verses for authenticity with online search engines.

This is a match by match tournament so there will probably be no show wins and losses.

G'luck and thnx for picking my topics

2 sides 1 story

Another night I spend in fright
in the absence of light I lack all might
to fight my disease I drop to my knees
to say my pleas and instead of please
I simply ask forgive me
I cry day after day aimlessly wandering through my dismay
unable to hear the words that courage would say
Addicted to the pay the rush the adrenaline
a disease uncurable by any medicine
slots, cards, craps, or roulette
my veins scream joy with every bet
my blood rushes my skin blushes I live for this
know all the tricks got all the skills only luck I miss
time after time my fate does unwind a destiny so unkind
that I wish I could leave this condition behind
but I step outmyself to lose my wealth
but now this starts to affect my health
To keep my high going I used money not my own
to keep the juices flowing I even bet my home
I shouldnt have done that


Left side
Ive lost it all there is no one to call
how much further can I fall
Im scared to brawl but I have no choice Im stuck
unable to pay up Im fucked
said they would shoot a knee cap or break my back
I have no time to slack find a way to pay them back
Jack daniels helps me relieve some stress
I feel like the last pawn in a game of chess
I know there is a way but the clock is ticking
looking at a full ashtray, my mind is slipping
said they would come today so my nerves are tripping
I know this wont end ok so Im steadily sipping
would leave the city but have no where to go
none will have pity my sanity dieing slow
as I try to stand up I feel my legs are weak
unwillingly my body and the wall painly meet
as I lean I can hear voices on the other side
screams which ensure feedback is denied
sounds of punches and threats can be heard
I want to help but my fear's size is so absurd


Right side
why is this happening, what is going on
why are they threatening me what did I do wrong
it must be him his actions caught up to me
trapped in the middle of his insanity
as they hit my frame they keep asking one thing
"where is the money we know you are hiding"
it cant be that your dumb enough to lose it all
but you keep saying nothing so let me make a call
boss I think he has nothing what should I do
"are you sure its him, if so his life is threw"
take him out another example we need to make
let all these dumb fucks know whats at stake


to scared to give aid the situation he made
involved a trade his life will be paid
for a debt he didnt create
but its not his soul that is at stake
its that of the one on the left
he is the one who commited theft
he will live in shame as he lets his punishment be taken by another
he will never come back from this moment as he lives next to his twin brother
