[*]Posting between 4-15 lines is considered a “show” but will not result in a match. If you post 4-15 lines, and your opponent posts between 16-64, you will lose the match but you will remain in the league. If you post 4-15 lines, and your opponent does not show, you will “Win by no-show”.[/list]
Voting:[list][*]If you do not show you can still vote and post the links in your match to receive full voting points. In addition, if you do not show, yet vote on at least 4 matches (Or, every match available, should there be less than 4 matches to vote on) you will remain in the league.
[*]Votes must be hidden! To hide a vote, first thing you type in your reply is a bracket “[“, the word “hide” and end bracket “]”.

If this reduces the number of matches available for you to vote on to the point where you are unable to vote on at least 4 matches, the point scale will be adjusted according to how many matches you do vote on.

Hell yeah! 1 and zero!!! I'm in. I ain't afraid of your... 41-9. hahaha. How about something not terribly long? 40-50 lines? something around there sound ok?

You can go 60 if ya want, I probably won't go over 50 though...

[Infinite Truth]

yea. 50's fine.
seeing as i haven't done this in a while,
i'll want to get as creative as i can.
i'll try to keep it no longer than 40.
no promises though.
the rules seem pretty legit now.

side note-
shit,
didn't realize my record got so shitty. hahaha.
16-0 to 41-9?
i suck. haha.

good luck.

[Ron Deau]

Hit me again bartender, and make it a stiff one.
Cuz when court resumes session, I’m going to prison.
Incidentally, it’s essentially a case of mistaken identity.
I’m meant to be a student with just coeds tempting me,
not an innocent man condemned to be a convicted felon.
Hit me again bartender, this time make it Ketel One.
Straight or Citron, either way it’s gone in one draught.
What’s not to drink about? Dad fucked mom at a truck stop,
9 months dropped me freshly onto this messy planet’s court
alone. Barely born, but already I’m 2 parents short.
Hit me again bartender, a double Wild Turkey,
cuz even those two birdies can’t match a third of how life’s hurt me,
and I’m thirsty. I’ve got to forget about that bitch’s eyes,
staring at me as she spits fits of lies, see, I’m the one being victimized.
She picked a prize in poor me, with no one to help get the truth out.
Hit me again bartender, and this time leave the vermouth out.
Then pour me two stouts: Guinness, and Guinness, and again this
feels like I’ve been sentenced to relive this same five minutes.
My state appointed guardian barging in, barfing gin,
swats the light, and in the darkness, then the scars begin.
Hit me again bartender, the cheapest ya got,
Cuz, hell, I’m gonna spend the rest of my life sleepin in cots.
It won’t altogether clash with weathered storms of the past,
before the last drop of class was wrung then torn from my grasp.
Child abuse ruined me, truthfully, so I plead:
Hit me again bartender, I’m on my knees
Give me reason to believe in the light again,
to remember the plight of men, remember right from sin.
I’ve always been the last on to-do lists, no one gave two shits
while I played Russian roulette alone… Oh, screw it.
Hit me again bartender, Dom Perignon Champagne.
No less than the best to address and drown the pain.
I announce the game over, but I was doomed from the start,
raised where love’s a part of glove, not from the heart.
Scarred by the belt, still I felt did my best with the cards I was dealt.
Hit me again bartender, I feel it all starting to melt,
and like I should, I stood amazed reliving childhood days,
on the swing, my foot grazed the ground, and I could say
first grade was great, until Gray, Dave’s dog tried to bite me,
so I stomped simply til he stopped whimpering and trying to fight me.
Hit me again bartender. Cut off? Not likely,
I might be slightly drunk, but the most frightening
thing I’ve yet discovered, as I hovered over that bloody mess,
was that after taking a life, I didn’t feel any fucking less.
Not in the head or chest, don’t know who I was ever fooling,
so, truly. Hit me again bartender
…cuz each, and every time, I knew exactly what I was doing.

[Pent uP]

Championship Match: 1. Sacrifice 4-0 VS 2. TheReturn 3-0 VS 3. Thaumaturge 12-0

[Mr. Mynd]

Shame he no-showed, you're pretty good kid. Lot of potential in there. Figured Id at least give you a bit of feed after you took the time to write a verse. Lol.

I.T. - Doing things like THIS is the reason your record is so bad, its not that you suck! Lol.

Ron, you remind me a lot of Ninja Kid or whatever he calls himself now. You have similar styles from what I remember of him. Better luck next week,

Peace!

[TheReturn]

Yeah I guess I'll comment on this since there's only 2 battles to vote on. This was a pretty nice piece. I really liked the reoccuring theme of "hit me again bartender" throughout the piece and the flow throughout the piece was pretty tight. Sucks that IT no showed, but yeah solid verse here. I enjoyed it.
