Ceremonials is a babe and is an amazing judge. Jackson is okay too Hello, this is moderator Hug speaking with an important message. Adding OT to a post does NOT make it immune to the off topic warning point. If you get points for off topic and you had OT: in your post and decide to appeal on that ground, you will not get your point reversed. Just letting you guys know this for the future. I do not personally warn for off topic unless it's disruptively so (and never in Games because I feel it's a more casual section in general), but other mods may do so and they aren't wrong for it!

Jackson Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share Posted October 16, 2017 i've always been open about the fact that i don't judge much based on the challenge (i would take off points if you didn't follow it at all obviously). most other judges do though. sam even made us score it in s8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've went with a lot of different themes throughout my entries already, so I don't buy this "I want you to branch out" thing, but if I choose to have a poetic style which I approach my entries based on, it's kind of ****ty as a host to tell somebody to go against their style. If anything you could be encouraging and nurturing their uniqueness, like Austin and Moonchild did for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citrus Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 2 hours ago, Hug said: We're gonna have another low-average round, and idk why we even have these type of challenges when the cast has shown that, collectively, we can't write entries even worthy of a 5.0 score with a relatively easier challenge. Is it "good" for the contestants? Maybe you could make a case for it being so, but I'm going to go with no. You're just going to get another round with a bunch of worse-than-mediocre entries (I'm just assuming y'all have had whole conversations about how the contestants are **** for mostly every week) and the only thing that does is demotivates judges and contestants. If I were a judge, I'd want an easy challenge for once just so I can read something that isn't 3 or below worthy. This is fair! I was bitchier than I've ever been when I scored this round, so sorry if that contributed to any ill will! I take into account how much I think the song fits the challenge probably more than anyone else, so that's why mine were so low. 1 hour ago, mxtthewdelrey said: Girls World Talk Show was absolutely TRAGIC.

Rapping is a type of delivery not a theme or a style. If that was rap to me, then that was rap to me. You can't just say my way of writing is not appropriate. I can write however I damn please. ! ! ! Yes and no, imo. We don't hear your delivery, so we have to go based off of the words. It's like in any other PH song where the lines work if they're sung a certain way, but we don't hear it sung so we can only find the flow in the written portion. 45 minutes ago, keshaspearsxo said: The contradictions, when will they end?

He literally said to be poetic in a rap song is not appropriate. Who decides that. It's just complete bs to say a rap song cannot be poetic and that you need to change your style to be more "appropriate". That's pure ass. And it's then contradicted this week by telling people to be poetic. You can't go back and forth with what you say like this, it can't be good to be poetic one week and then bad the next week, writing IS subjective and without rule, this is not a sport where you can be penalised for not following a rule book, so it makes zero sense to say those things and isn't at all helpful to the contestants which, I may remind everybody, is the point of being a judge, helping people rather than just acting like an asshole.

I disagree with Jackson if his notion was that poetry doesn't belong in rap, but the criticisms of your song were similar for me so I would say it's most likely bad wording on his part.
