It has been awhile since a contest has appeared here. With that being said you are probably wondering what is this Epic Rap Battles of Armor Games (ERBAG)?
Participants will be pitted against one another in a poetry slam to roast one another 1v1 until there is one final winner. This will be a 16 player single elimination tournament. Image below for reference.
The tournament will either include 8 players with 4 rounds, or 16 players with 5 rounds. Depending on how many participants sign up. For every round you win, a merit will be awarded. So the more users sign up, the more chances there are for you to win a merit. The maximum amount of merits you can win is 5, if you are the grand winner in a 5 round style tournament. So share this opportunity with your fellow users for a more rewarding experience.
!!!IMPORTANT!!!
To protect users and keep competition friendly, clean, and for laughs:
- Participants will only roast based on their opponents history on Armor Games, that includes Stats (likes received, comments made, games rated/played, merit count etc.), Quest Count, Forum Posts, Username, Rank, Position/Title, Friend Count, Favorite games, Profile comments, activity, or any thing AG related.
- Any roast post made to include anything on your opponents personal life or on a personal level will mean automatic disqualification. This means Age, Gender, Race, Religion, Political views, anything not meant to be shared on public, or anything on a personal level will mean automatic boot off the contest and if need be, additional consequences on site by a moderator.
- The main moderator keeping an eye on participants will be the very much respected and well known @Moegreche. He will be the very person handing out merits and making sure everything is kept in check. Thank you, Moe, we salute you.
- I, @SirLegendary, will be the host and judge of this competition. I've judged and hosted many poetry and art contests on AG, and have participated in many I did not host or judge. Rest assured I am fair and will only judge you on your ability to roast and the creativity of your roast. IT HAS TO RHYME.
- Sign ups will begin when this post is live and will last for a week, until June 13, 2018, or until at least 8 slots have been filled. If you sign up after the 8th slot is filled but the total amount of participants does not reach 16 by the time sign up is over, you will not be able to participate.
1. You will be paired randomly at the beginning. Brackets will be posted after every round in order to view who is against who in the next round.
2. Updates will be posted and you will be tagged for announcements.
3. You will have give and take one roast/rap per round. If you are posting for any other purpose make sure it is clear that you are not posting for the sake of the round to avoid confusion.
4. Rounds will last up to 1 week, or until all participants have finished.
5. Next round will begin once on announcement after judging decisions have been made.
6. Be patient with the merits, they will come.
I apologize for the long wait as I was struggling to juggle with a couple of things I had to do. I also decided in the end to do the bracketing and randomizing on my own as finding a bracket maker online that was free, simple, didn't leave their own watermarks, and was easily applicable to posting in this forum proved to be somewhat time consuming. Hope the anticipation did not make any of you nervous! This round will last a week.
@Boofuss Yes, @Doombreed unfortunately can’t participate because the way tournament brackets work require me to have specifically 8 or 16 players, otherwise a number that can be used in this way.
If things go smoothly, there may be a second season for this, fingers crossed.
Also, yes everyone has a week to post. The end of the round will be around July 11, like you mentioned.
@abcdragon66 I’m using this post as a chance to make sure you know the round has started. I made an error with your username in the tagging and editing a post to correct my typo won’t notify you via email.
It's ok. I hopefully signed up in reserve so maybe I can take over if someone does not show up I also saw lozerfac's post in the previous page Anyone who has hosted a contest here knows people don't always show up in the end. Besides, I'll be watching anyway.
Oh no... I have to face my buddy from CT100... and a guy from a country I'm rooting for... I kinda hoped to avoid that, but well *sniff* let's bring it on, man!
gotta ask, how exactly are we going to do this? Are we all just gonna post our roast here when we finish it (probably leaving a mess, with all the roasts jumbled up) or are we gonna send it first to you @SirLegendary so you can arrange it to make sure the participants paired together are in the same page? (but then that would mean you'd have to spend time on it... I know you're busy too so... yeah, this is knd of why I'm asking now)
Posts should be made here. Don't worry about me getting mixed up
If you'd like, you can make it clear on your post who you're up against, but otherwise I'll be compiling the posts after each round for myself in an order that allows me to read them based on the pairings. Just don't accidentally roast the wrong person guys, I'll know!
Just to be perfectly clear, you have one roast per round. You can make it as long as you like, but remember, it's not about the quantity of roasts, it's about the quality of the roasts you put out. Though I am encouraging you guys to give 110%!
I'll also take this chance to remind you guys about the limitations of how far you can go on what you say in your roast. Just read the OP again. Let's have a clean and funny roasting! No one likes rotten meat after all
Blitzing the field first, you can call me Kingdom Rusher
My spit's so biohazardous, they call it Bio Shocker
Yeah! You lack the bio to be known as a threat
I pepper through your shell without me even breaking a sweat
Collect the bonus, time for me to leave you in this joint
No one to come and rescue you, cause I'll be at the halfway point
Making them all my loyal footmen to their once and future king
You should've known whatchu gon' deal with when you must enter the ring
You lack the bee-stinger, I come in with guns blazin' Weapons of mass destruction, I'm ready for total razin'
A race you can't win, so you best be steering clear
You're unlucky to have to go against the final boss here
You're too low of a level this no camping trip boy
Setting up your war tent, only to have it destroyed
by a Super Jumper, I set the record high for you kid
The Sky is never my limit, I went beyond what NASA did.
The Veteran of the field, I tend to set it ablaze
You'll be needing more than long jumps to get out this hellish place maximum power, I'll drill through the competition in a crazed
haste, you think that I've lost it but my mind will not be fazed
dedication, it lasts more than a minute or an hour
I was born a rookie but I drilled myself up into power
like a tower, I stand all tall and proud for all to see
you can go and look again, my greatness asks you for no fees
With my target on lock, it's time for trophy hunting
The Ultimate Combat expert, you will barely see it coming
When it hits you, you're done, but your nightmare's just starting
Seeing you're still too far away from reaching me with your ranking
You call yourself an officer with no merits to your name
I have took command and conquered all the people in your game
whether a squad or a one-man-army, going against robots or zombies
After the last verse, I swear you'll be screaming for your mommy
Like the Rune Sorceress of Aedoris, I'm far from looking cheap
with bars like a Cursed Treasure, I awake those in Deeper Sleep
this death-defying ritual invocated by the necromaster
will leave your heart racing until it can't go any faster
I'm Legendary sir, a demon hybrid like Dante,
I hear you let out a weird laugh, sure go ahead and doubt me
But my Nte(le)ch is sharper than your newest pair of razors
I bring all 20 floors down on my baddest behavior.
