Also @ OP, depends on the battle but I try to write a small break down to why I voted the way I did, agree w/ Godbody about people getting 6's & 7's they don't deserve, I'm hesitant to hand out 8's+ BUT I also try to account for the times, some 8's now wouldn't fly in 2007 but that was 15 years ago and the talent overall as grown too, some people were getting pure 9's & 10's back then too who didn't deserve them either.

Well it also doesn't help when dudes are voting based on Punch count. Like if I have more punches I won? Wtf. What about creativity, performance, delivery, etc?

Some battlers are punchers, some battlers are different type. Some just like talking real shit to a person. But according to LB, you gotta have the same style or it's a no no
