Mr.Riggz Battle Grounds observations.
Posted: Sat Apr 17, 2010 1:14 pm
I see a lot of catz gettin' mad about voting in the battles as well as the battle grounds slowly losing it's cred -- let me point a few things out:
Voting in Cats is not a requirment just because someone posted it there. I don't see the need of naming off 3 or 4 catagories without explainations. I personally think breaking down verses means you did much more indepth work around voting then just saying so and so wins flow, so and so wins punches, etc etc. Breaking battle verses down means the reader read line for line and the point system is a good way to show cats why their verse was nice, mediocre, or merely a waste of time. Expect breakdowns from Riggz.. nuff said
2nd, the reason the battle field is slowly decreasing is because guys appear to be getting discouraged when they drop a weak battle and it gets recognized. The one thing I respect about M.V. is that he's lost more than he's won, but he keeps battling. And he appears to be improving with each battle. Take your loss and move on.
3rd, No Shows are outrageous and the long delay in dropping a verse is ridiculous. Much props to Toyh for keeping the grounds clean, but damn, why does it take 3 days to drop a verse after a thread is set up? You call out someone, drop your verse the same day or at least the next day and get the votings started. I remember when Dosia joined and the cat dropped like 30-40 minutes after he set up a thread. It's like waiting on dial up from most of you catz.
4th VOTE. If you got a battle going on, and you want votes, the least you could do is vote on the ones preceding you...
Well, that's enough from Mr.Riggz today. Now on to the theme song:
"It's a beautiful day in this neighborhood,
A beautiful day for a neighbor,
Would you be mine?
Could you be mine?"...
