Thread is intended for members to offer proposals for things to be run on the site as well as offers to help run said activities. I.e. Trizzy came up with the idea of Bloodlines and ran it, or Manc with Luck of the Draw. The site is more sustainable and entertaining if members step up with ideas and innovations like this & we're open to listening to offers of help.

We have our own ideas and will be looking to launch some new additions in due course, I personally would be happy for members to offer to contribute or run these features on behalf of the site.

Over to you!!

The last 2 years I ran Bloodlines and Bloodlines II in July. If there's interest I'd be down to run a Bloodlines III battle event with some help from a mod.

I would also be interested in an event like Trizzys, but have it be audio only. Maybe like a 6 match card.

I think it would be funny if we had a roast once a month. We do a poll and pick which member we want roasted. (I'll be the first ;) We dedicate a thread to either audio or a 16 of funny bars meant to make us laugh. Everyone can participate and we have a separate thread for discussion.

You always ran Bloodlines pretty well. Things such as the timeframe's will have to be sorted out for the III one with Heat Wave going on and other implementations that may come. But speaking for myself, I'd say your more than welcome to run another bloodlines and I'd help mod it. I am sure the rest of the staff would agree with me.

Maybe when and if the time comes, you two can collaborate and have a full card of both audio and text. Turn it into a bigger event, instead of splitting the two apart.

I really like this idea and I have seen this successful elsewhere. I will bring it up in the discussions amongst the staff.

Thanks law, I thought I ran it pretty well too lol

But sounds good to me, as I'd like to get more active here again. Just been busy with work. But I'm around more now and would be down to put BL3 together. This time maybe throw a few new spins on the event, maybe even have a few battles voted on and see what people want to see. The last 2 I picked the battles and PM'ed each battler if they'd be interested in whatever battle idea I had for them. Example picture battle, which seemed to be a favorite for most of LA at bloodlines. Kiki's pictures from the first bloodlines is still classic shit lol

But yea law, we can chat about it and throw some ideas around. I always enjoyed running it as it always was huge success.

I would like to add a voting panel as well. Not sure how everyone feels a out that, but think it would limit anyone having issues with voting also speed up the votes and keep the event running smoothly. I remember last year's main event title match between Art and Point (which was dope as fuck btw) took awhile to get votes. Shit was close as hell but getting some top level respected vets on a panel could help that.

Was thinking the same, except my idea was once all the battles are in and we decide a panel, preview the battles for them and get their votes privately so we can post all the battles at once, as well as the votes with them, so it could get done in a day and make it feel more special instead of feeling like a one round tourney because of voting

Honestly I wouldn't want to post all battles at once with votes. Takes away from the build up and excitement.

Normally at bloodlines I start from the bottom of the event card and post 2 or 3 battles at a time. Then let the votes come in, close out those battles. Once they're closed, open up and post the next 2 or 3 battles. In that sense it's more of an "event feel" then just a ton of battles posted at once.

Good stuff guys, would be good if we could limit this to the initial conversations and move the detailed chat to separate threads...idea is we keep this as clean as possible so people can continuously bring forward new ideas.

Relative to how busy I am with work, and what's needed. I'd be happy to help out.

As always the main event would be a title match at bloodlines.

One idea I had was starting a thread at a point, and have everyone list a bunch of battles they'd like to see. Then from that list we post a poll of maybe 4 or 5 battles, let LA vote on which battle they'd like to see. Which ever one with the most votes happens at bloodlines. That would just be one of maybe 8 to 10 battles on the event card. Would be interested to see what battles LA wants to happen.

Also, just a suggestion....but I think it's time to reopen the Fuck Y'all section.

I completely understand why it was locked up before, but think it's a good section to open for the LA community again.

I agree ^^^

It's stops the shit talking in other threads, also creates the back stories for beefs so people drop decent material.

Only thing I can offer is help running the topical and poetry sections. Keeping them clean and updated. Come up with fresh ideas as the times feels right. I'm currently the Open Mic Mod on another site and been doing this shit for a decade. So I kinda have an idea of what's what. Otherwise the site looks good, just needs more active members but nowadays that's hard to come by anywhere forum related. I'm impressed though.
