RAP BATTLES

[skypez]

THE RULES

make sure you understand how the rap battles work by reading below. the idea is based off the rap battles as seen in 8 Mile.

• You sign up
  
• You are assigned an opponent
  
• Skypez will open the thread, including how many lines you both get and who starts
  
• You have a maximum of five days to post your rap - if you fail to do so, your opponent wins by forfeit; if you have posted in the 'away' forum, you will be taken out of the battle
  
• The thread will then be locked and a poll will go up, where the viewers can vote who they think won
  
• None of your charatcers can vote if another one of your characters took part in that battle
  
• Otherwise, we allow one vote per character - this way yo can support your IC friends (reputation really does go a long way here - unless the other person was really good)
  
• There will be rounds, so whoever won the first round will go on to battle another winner
  
• This will go on until we have two finalists, who will have one last battle
  
• The winner will receive £150

These rap battles is what Street Poetry is all about, it's where most of the money is made for the people of the streets. They are held every other season (once every two months in real life) when there are enough people around. If your character is interested in signing up for the next open battle, then send skypez a PM with the following form filled out.
