Alright so I figured this thread would be idea. The main point of this thread is to stop people creating new threads just to ask a question. The other point is to have a thread to discuss rap in general whether it be ourselves or our favorite emcees. Well, this is either going to work or it isn't...lol

First order of business, I need some nominations for new links in the Beginner's Guide. Battles that I need:

A good wordplay battle: Inf, Razor and Boog vs. RAH Flava

A battle with good flow from both sides: Razz Vs. Mode

A battle with a lot of good punches from both sides: Inf, Razor and Boog vs. RAH Flava

A verbal violence match: VV semi-final subject vs. reflexion

A topical match: Topical - Finals: Aura vs. Anaktix

An audio match (if we can find one...)

Battle with a lot of multies from both people: Razz Vs. Mode

Alright, those are all the battles types that I need links for. Post up what battles you think should go where and I'll take them into consideration. This isn't the only thing the thread is going to be used for, but it's just a starting point. Also, keep the spam to a minimum please.

I'll update this with the ones I've decide on too.

Well since that actually finished quick, here's a couple questions:

What do you guys think we should do for the next tourney? (I know the 2v2 isn't over, but least we can get some ideas going)

Any ideas on what we can do to get more people in here?

[Bizzare_101]

Verbal Violence!! I been wantin one of those since i've joined.. plus.. i wanna take Roc's crown away.. even though hes one sick motherfucker :P

[DeCypher]

VV wouldn't be too bad. Could always do up a cypher tourney too. Be nice to see an original battle idea get made, but I think everything has been done. Maybe a wordplay battle, or a flip battle.

[SpellBound]

Lol, a flip battle would be kinda cool. Have each person spit a verse against each other, than the second one is mainly flips. Voters would just have to judge the second verse, since the first was just for material. I don't know, not a bad idea. Any ideas for the second question?

[RingerINC]

The flip one could use one old verse from somewhere and the two guys posts flipping the same verse. That'd kinda promote people to post first rather than last. Like the people who get up first have the advantage of originality, but may make a poorer verse due to lack of timeand vice versa.

and whats up with the links you posted, all those work... Do you still want more suggestions?

[Elbee]

i would like a cypher tournament. season style, everybody battles everybody and then a selected few with the more wins will make the playoff. plus this might take a while so it would keep everyone active

[VerbTech]

^^i like the idea of everyone battlin everyone, because ideally it WILL force people to stick around, but like you said, its gonna take a helluva long time and the reality of it is that most people are either gonna take too long to drop and complete their battles, or dq/drop out altogether. and in either scenario, the tourney itself will stall and stale.

i think either a vv or a topical (cypher or not) is due... maybe a vv since the topical tourney yall tried before the current tourney fizzled.

just cee's opinion...

[SpellBound]

A V V would probably be the next one, since we haven't had one in quite some time. Oh and Ringer, those links work because they're the new ones that I chose lol.

[Bizzare_101]

fuckin eh.. a V V Tourny

[[Sikk]]

How about comedy battles?

[Bboy EZ]

i personally like V V and topicals, but right now im in the mood for a wordplay/punchline battle.

[SpellBound]

A wordplay battle/tourney seems like it wouldn't be very popular, since most people don't do too much wordplay. Looks like everyone seems to want to do a V V tourney so that'll probably be the next one. Next thing, how many verses would each person do? Also, just putting out this question again, anyone have any ideas to get more people in here?

EDIT
Just thought of this after lookin at some old posts. What do you guys think about a cypher tournament?

[RingerINC]

everyone joins a bunch of other forums and spams links to this website under the guise of like "z0mg Ashley simpson naked" or whatever...

[flobotopics]

not to toot my own horn, and not to sound gay, but check out some of my old topicals. i used to have dope ones on here, if they are still on here that is.
