^^^^ IS THERE HONESTLY ANYBODY ON THIS ENTIRE FUCKING SITE THAT WOULD VOTE THIS FUCKING BATTLE IN?!!
THIS SHIT FUCKING SUCKED ASS! WHY THE FUCK IS IT IN LEGENDS WHEN IT DOESNT CONFORM TO THE SAME FUCKING STANDARDS THAT WE SEEM TO HAVE NOW!
Shit is pissing me off. Why the constant backlash over every fucking battle that gets nom'd? the only qualification that I have found from this
battle that everyone would agree with by the standards that are set now, is that it was pre '05!
GET THE FUCK OFF OF THAT GENERATIONS DICK!
What's been up bro?

This isn't fuckin '03... legends should take the best from each era... not only battles from '05 and older. this is my entire point.
but, does this mean that Arches and Tokens battle wasn't as good as this one?
Cause that is what everyone is saying...
That piece was inducted in 2003.
ZThis piece was inducted in 2011... its a good fucking battle.
but the problem is, nobody will vote yes, because it wasnt from fuckin '05
Ivclicked the link you posted...it was posted in 2003 lol. I'm confused.
my point is this... since 2007, only 5 SS battles have been voted in.
all of those battles were voted in the year that they happened... WHATS PISSING ME OFF, IS THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN A SINGLE 'TEXT' BATTLE INDUCTED SINCE 2005!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nothing is good enough... are you telling me that in the past six years, we havent had ONE FUCKING BATTLE that is AT LEAST as good as the last 'text battle' that was inducted?
IM CALLING BULLSHIT AND AM TELLING SMOKA AND EVERYONE WHO VOTES NO ON EVERYFUCKING BATTLE TO GET OFF OF THAT GENERATIONS DICK!
I love it when you play renegade...
*growls and winks*
My qualifications on judging a battle for being legendary comes down to a couple things. It can't have any misses, nothing played, and it has to have a variety of punch styles. wordplay, personals, etc. also, it obviously needs to have some real strong haymakers. every bar being a hit doesn't mean shit if it doesn't have several that hit HARD. Also, shorter battles get A LOT less credit in my book. and yes I consider 20 lines short. all the best dudes on the site could write 10 bars that connect, but doing 15 or 20 is a different story and way more impressive.
another thing i take into consideration, although not nearly as much, is the circumstances. if its two dudes who've had a ton of beef, if its a champ match, a season champ match, shit like that. anything that makes the battle mean more than any other random battle.
that 03 shit WAS dope back then, but its 8 years old so of course we see it as wack now. so the only way to compare a 2011 battle and a 2003 battle is by they're effectiveness at the time, not by the actual content. the Token/Arch battle will seem wack 8 years from now too, just how shit works.
we JUST had a topical battle get into legends, we've had several OMs get in recently. since taking over legends i've realized that the reason text battles get voted down isn't because of dudes creating some crazy gold standard. it happens, but thats not the main reason. its cuz the current text heads dont give a fuck. dudes wait til the last day to write, they won't go over 20 lines, they just don't put in any effort.
so was Arch/Token HOF? without a doubt. Was it legendary? maybe yes, maybe no. depends on the person voting. but if it gets voted down, the answer isn't to bitch about it. neither one of those dudes could honestly say that was the absolute best they could do. just put in the effort and drop harder in the next big battle.
I posted a thread in EO... it explains a few things, and I think I may have called out Keebs. lol
Pretty sure he died again.
smoka never voted on this nomination. keebs didQuote:

I would have voted but I was undecided on my stance.
