[*]During check-in, you can ask your opponent to agree to a line limit (Minimum 16) and if your opponent agrees, Moderators will hold both participants to that limit.
[*]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 “]”. The last thing you type in your reply is a bracket “[“, a backslash “/”, the word “hide” and end bracket “]”. Unhidden votes will not count towards the match or towards your vote requirements.
[*]No second chance votes! Editing votes for any reason must be approved by mods and explained in reason for editing.
[*]No bias votes! If you have a personal investment in wanting someone to lose, whether because that member voted against you once, or you just don’t like that person, whatever the reason, do not vote in the match.

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.
[*]3-ways are inevitable. In order to provide a tie-breaker in a 3-way, you are now required to indicate in what order the contestants finished (1st, 2nd, 3rd).

Death is unavoidable

A plot on a large field, at a point it didn't grow
the ground moves, you'll hear the muffled voices from below

If I had room to budge you would see my hands shakin
Forgive the muffled voice here's my stories translation

The road home, most would say the drive is scary..
my way back from gettin drinks with Clyde and Gary
the only friends I had, one day I may decide to marry,
but I can barely hold my own, let alone a wife to carry.
fuck that I wanted to skip the maze of kids to raise..
more attention - give them praise even past the infant stage
nuff bout my life, at least my fickle attempts
tommorow
figured I'd take some time off - but not in the literal sense
depression.. a kid just a kick from adoption
needed plans it was really time to consider my options
another night to camp where my tent would collapse
where I'd like to be - to find a tree and vent with an axe
or a night in jail.. a brief sentance perhaps
cuz in the boring story of my life noone mentions the facts
the first two drinks were only meant as a cap
or some after work relief for the tension to snap,
feeling a bit lost I reach to my left for the map
distracted I dropped my burning ciggerette in my lap
what happened next - glass to flesh, I won't get morbid and crass
I swerved from the road
my car would burst and explode - a horrible crash.

the next day an average trip down Valerian Drive
my friends looked off the road and were very surprised
they approached my car and looked with despair in the eyes
saw my body and figured I wouldn't want to share it with flies
Gary said "It's apparent he died" his arrogance thrived
didn't check for vital signs - skip the wheres and the why's
carried by Gary and Clyde like
"He wasn't scared of demise, and barely cared to survive"
they said fuck a box, and dug a plot where I was buried alive.

*the muffled voice stops*

Lol, you know the rules ribo so I won't recite em for you...

Ribo wins, but you need to vote on champ and contender's match to move up in ranks

You don't need to post links because I'm closing no show wins. When/if you vote, I'll look in the matches to see.

Thanks for participating.
