The new brackets are up already.

Due date will be three days from today. I'm giving an extra few days for those that didn't see it opened. It will be three days for each successive round from this one.

Cypher tourney ain’t really a cypher if it takes 3 days to drop. Should be 24 hours, cypher is off the top shit…. Makes no sense having 3 days to write a “cypher”

I dropped already anyways so ain’t matter to me

Freestyling: Coming 100% Off the top, or
spitting a written piece that is a cypher/free forming type set of bars that can suit any beat that haven't been used before/not part of a song/battle etc.

Cypher: Spitting a written with no overall/main concept or focus, just writing the best bars you can for the sake of it.

A Cypher isn't off the top... Unless you mean a couple of dudes freestyling on the corner, with each one jumping in at different time, thus making it seem like its a cypher.

Anyway... All tournaments are 3 days to write. People have lives, jobs etc outside of LB. No one is spending 3 entire days to write....

I saw this forum after I posted my cypher, when I first signed up it didn't mention a format, it was just like write about whatever. It seem like everybody got their own definition of what a cypher is. I don't think neither of us followed it exactly, I think he battled me a lil bit, which is cool too.

I thought a cypher could be anything, but based on the comments on the battle it has to be this way or that way or maybe they don't know what they're talking about either. lol
