    Guess what's back?
    Back again?
    The comp's back.
    Tell a friend.

    Yes, gentlemen and ladies. Please put down your expensive champagne.

    The competition is back with a brand new attack.

    Okay, alright, no more rhyming. Yes, another competition. This is the 3rd Lyrics Competition. Brought to you by none other than me, GiriosXeni.

    So, the past two have been basically this: Submit an entry, whatever it may be, lyrics or poem, and people will vote what is the best and who ever wins gets a prize. Well, this is way different. This competition has a twist.

    Your submissions: Rap. Just a rap submission. No poems, no songs, just a rap. Yeah, there was a obsession with rap battles a while ago until they got outta hand. Well, here, we got raps back in the picture.

    But, there are some conditions. You can't direct your raps at anyone on the boards. Your raps cannot break any rule on the LPA whatsoever. You have to keep it clean. Even though if it were up to me, I would allow no limits except the limit of not directing it at people. But rules are rules. But this can still be fun.

    Raps, funny or serious, happy or sad, whatever, are allowed to be submitted. Here's something else though. Your submission has to be 3 verses or stanzas, at least. It can be longer if you'd like.

    Unfortunately, due to the problems with prizes, we are not offering prizes. Although, I'm going to try to arrange this:

    If you win this competition, (you have to come first, or you don't get this), you get a title label (you know how super members have that blue label under their username?) that says you are the winner. And maybe, a little fun joke, for the first week, that everyone has to put in their signatures that they lost the competition to you.

    I'll see if I can do that. It's not official yet. I'm gonna be a bit easing on you guys with the time frame.

    You get 3 weeks to submit, and 1 week to vote. That's pretty easy on all of us. I'm going to edit this post with a time frame later.

    Well, there you have it guys. Start writing, and I'll post information letter with where you need to submit and such. I still need to organize all of that.

    A newe competition! And I'm here for the first time...rap? Oh-oh...so the topic can be anything we like? And since some raps have a chorus...sorry if I seem thick but is a chorus necessary as well?
    *runs to read rap songs and figure our how to write one)

    Cool idea!

    Hm, I think I'll leave this competition to the experts.

    Maybe I'll enter in something in the off-chance that I might slide in somewhere in the top ten. Heh.

    Damn! You can't compete with someone if the thing you are competing about is their "thing". This had to be done when I was there to enter the competition, right? :angry: Oh well, I agree with Mali, maybe I'll manage to slide in the top ten. I can still show off to my non- LPA friends, just twist the number of partcipants a little, muhahaha.

    Well, since some of you won't be entering, then please recommend people who rap here. I want more competitors.

    It's strange, the first song I wrote had a rap feel, even though it was shity. Can I vote without submiting anything though?

    I would enter, but it looks like a certain other competition would stop me from writing something decent xD
