Aeon brought this user contest to Board 8 in the Summer of 2006. It quickly became known as one of the most entertaining and original contests on the board. The general premise was a bracket of what ended up being 32 users, facing off against each other in a battle of rhymes, in the traditional tournament format. In each match, the lower seed went first, and then the higher seed was able to respond, then the lower seed responded, etc, for three rounds, or a total of six raps, each of which could be no more than 12 lines long. The first rap of each match and every response had to be posted within 24 hours of the topic's posting and the previous rap's posting, respectively. This rule caused a fair amount of disqualifications due to forgetfulness.
