Can We Get A Tourney?!
 
Something....

Tournaments should stay disabled unless the site picks back up.

I get your way of looking at it but I feel like a tourney would generate activity and interest at least from current members who are battling. I feel as the ones currently active won’t be for long as there’s no actual “reward” or something to look forward to so they’ll eventually give up also.

I get that. It's just been done so many times before and most guys are on the edge or already no showed. Weveve been trying to push tournaments for years. The site needs a major update, not just tournaments. This is basically the 2006 site you're currently viewing.

I got you bro. Just a thought. Trying to see it prosper and maybe new guys can come through and do their thing and get things going. 06? Damn you name says you joined ‘19. I’m assuming name change. Either way when the sites slow like this it’s a little boring

Haha it's a newer account. I got here in 2011 but it's well known that the sites been the same long before that.

But word. I hear that. I also think online battling as a whole has fallen to a degree if its not on an app.

Was thinking of running another tournament for the audio side, or another text tournament with a few twists. But Punk makes a good point. My tourny did well but I think that's because there was money involved. A standard tournament might not get people as excited as it used to especially with the activity where it is.

EtH 02-20-2021 02:38 PM

Your tourney did well and everyone liked you but then you ranked MM as one of the greatest ever and now you're a joke again.

same dudes, winning, and it's not because they're actually good or great,.. and we know this,.. it wouldn't kill us to drop a lil bag on every tourney,.. or have a annual "money in the bank" tourney,.. Complete with trophy or Green name in a diff color or.. so many ways to ramp up,.. activity , buy ad space.. make a YouTube commercial,.. buy banners on other sites,.. or slots on youtube creators Vids.. they will get people to visit... hit up dna tooth tf..

imagine ,before That dude.. who reacts to url videos.. with the hat on.. who be like.." Yooo thats crazyyy".. promos your site before he does his thing.. for 10 videos.. we'd be up

The only thing that moves me, is if i troll someone and they get invested,.. that's what's missing.. dude's who make waves get banned and who ever is left over create the narrative,.. (i.e. mods).. but some people come back and get to do what they want..(i.e. Eth,Bnas,Ammo)

I think they should create a betting system.. create tokens worth money, and have them transferrable as gifts to get around the betting angle,.. and have them be redeemable for cash again, create a bank .. that's what i'd do..

EtH 02-20-2021 04:26 PM

They banned me and realized the site was dead without me.

You left of your own according and there's not a single member of the site who remembers your old name.

you kind of clearly do,.. by your own admission,.. which defeats your own argument, people generally only know you for shitty things,.. and you being here.. doesn't add to the site positively.. like.. we're here really discussing how to bring it back and you offer nothing..
Them allowing you back because there's a downturn.. doesn't mean they want you here...
you're somebodies friend.. sole reason you're back.. you're a failed ex mod who's been here since 08 who can't get your own self poppin let alone a whole site...


do you have any suggestions?..

i got the bag..im dead ass serious about droppin 150 for first and 50 for second..

you're like 40 acting like a 12 year old..

Ok let’s settle and get back to the actual topic, getting a tourney going and maybe some cash prizes. Who is the site owner and how can I get in touch with him? Seems like he’s done with this site.

And Zul, apparently you’re a vet prior to current name. If you don’t mind me asking, what name did you go as prior to this?

Site ownership doesn’t really get involved with this stuff, the best bet is to go through the mods. Users are more than welcome to run their own forum tourneys with cash prizes; if we want to put something through the official tourney brackets I’d be happy to run it although I’d also probably want to participate.

That’s great my g, seeing vets willing to participate!

I have no idea wtf you're talking about.. maybe because i'm drunk and just enjoying my weekend off from work,.. or it's because i don't give a fuck about the names you dropped, because those that are names to you aren't worth shit in my world.. and Macc is waaaayyy better than you and he's very flawed as a writer and a person behind the bars.. but you're where he' should be due to the climate and nature of this site..

and you had no real response but responded anyways because your ego wont let you shut the fuck up.. the scots gave us Gta and that's all.. we laugh at braveheart..
But anyways.. i have 200 maybe 250 to blow.. and nigga i can do this shit in reality..we all could.. but mods and Former mods like him.. are a joke and won't try.. i gotta find X... Tell X to get at me..

Seeing Pseudo Nim was back on the admin team, I was kinda hoping that was a sign some coding changes might be appearing soon. This site really needs help.

I hope for your sake that you never get into an abusive relationship. I don't know if your "This time it'll be different" attitude is commendable or stupid.

Ok im down..i want to be on this Board,.. should one arise.. we literally could Gamestop this site up ourselves as a collective.. there are people with already a position.. that kind of do nothing.. i'm serious..
i was thinking about creating a Token.. with a worth that can be bet.. like credits... that can be transferred back into cash.. But cash prizes are the most legal way of.. getting money involved.. aside from that

I've been thinking along similar lines recently and would absolutely be keen to help with this! Great thinking and hopefully a way to inject some life back into the site

If I was on Staff I would just start it myself, sure give the Admin/Super Mod a courtesy heads up but sometimes you've got to push the envelope, especially when activity is this low.

Rowdy 02-27-2021 02:27 PM

It shouldn't be an official LB tournament. At least not for a title. Push some cash up and run some lil prize tourney.

Off topic: One thing I hate is when guys who win tournaments today or barely had any type of competition in it gets compared to actual champions who had fire runs.

Like sure I can become Hall of Fame in 2021, all I gotta do is beat saxx, ammo, and saiyan? Sweet!

Denton 02-27-2021 02:55 PM

Shit ill host a fuckin tourney.

50 dollar grand prize
25 runner up

I agree with it not being an official tournament..

But also, this site may never return to the way you experienced it with crazy activity and bunch of heavyweights. That doesn’t mean the site has to die out and just look only back at history. It’s like the real hip hop world, yea the guy back in the day were legit emcees but the game has to continue as new artist come out. The legends of this site have solidified their positions in hall of fame already and in order to drive new activity and competition, there has to be rewards and awards for everyone to step up and improve and create their own path.

If all the sick vets want to come back and battle they’re all more than welcome to join and take the title and the bread. Till then, the site must go on and new legends must be born. I understand the vets been here a hot minute and they don’t want to let go of the good old times but on the other hand you can’t punish the new emcees and draw them out simply because their talent level doesn’t equate “what it used to be”..

But I do understand your points completely

A rookie tournament could’ve been set up, just needs more people to sign up, I’ll post on it to bring it back to spotlight :guns::p
