    Dude, if you coloured your piece with a fill as dope as your painted work you'd probably make the finals.

    Your letters have hella tight style, but your sketch looks more like a blueprint than a submission for a sketch battle.

    Props anyways, you gotta know that you still stomp like 80% of the dudes on the forums at least...:cool:

    mentes sketch didnt make top 10 coz it wasnt top 10. (probably, or the "finals" whatever). shits usually on high lvl but the casio sketch you did wasnt your best, or good work. thats how i see it.
    but its fun the see the fanboys come running to defend their idols. should be real life war, so many casualties there would be <3

    no i meant as in a winner.
    why wasn't that atleast 3rd place...?
    it's a good piece,
    the colors are there,
    the flow is there,
    the letters are there,
    in my opinion,
    the first place one is ugly as anything...
    who was the judge(s) for this?
    honestly...
    the second place is mad clean - well deserved for the funk too,
    but the first place one....really man? c'mon.
    sorry i just had to let it out,
    it was bugging me.

    no it's not because of that,
    if they didn't appreciate graff,
    99% of those people wouldn't even be on these forums.
    it's about legitimacy.
    think about it - if you were the judge and could go through all those entries, you'd choose some different ones too right? (maybe.)
    point is, everyone has different tastes in selection, including judges, but this selection for the 3 winners was pretty fucked up.
    why the fuck does it say that the pieces would also be judged on letter structure?
    those letters are ugly as fuck.
    they don't even FLOW for fuck's sake.
    mystix piece - i have to agree i don't know what the fuck is going on, but it flows, and it's clean too, i'm sure a lot of people would agree about how clean it is. might not be easy to read, letter structure is weak, but he doesn't throw the piece off because of those factors.

    see i wouldn't have voiced my opinion but i felt that i had to because:
    A- we weren't allowed to vote for this
    B- guys just walked away with presents and money when they really didn't deserve more than 2 or 3 bucks worth of loot.
    ez.

    these are the entries that the judging should have taken place between (in my opinion):
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG](not too sure about the handies ^^)
    [​IMG](may look odd at first but look carefully, it's been executed real well)
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    EACH one of these has something called goddamn LETTER STRUCTURE
    they are VISUALLY APPEALING,
    and they easily indicate that the writers KNEW what they were doing as well (compared to the shitty entries submitted by the EXTREME toys).

    This is a message to Bombing Science, if you're going to bump up the level of judges on the battles, then atleast make sure that if it's "legendary status" the dumb toys don't fucking submit shit, make it CLEAR first of all.

    Second - keep more than one judge so that they aren't biased. think about it, go back to the entries that won and you'll realize the judge was biased towards how busy the pieces were. the first entry was busy and ugly and fucked up as hell and he gave it a good spot, the second one just fucking looks good in terms of cleanliness and color, rest no letter structure, just a weird bunch of transformations for letters (counted towards the bias),
    and the last one - busy again, too much put into making the piece busy - therefore no letter structure.

    Now look at the ones above that SHOULD have atleast been on one of the top spots.
    you'll see where all this is coming from.
    enough said.

    You're saying that the first (or the 3 top ties) one doesnt have letter structure coz its too busy, but the more "simplified" sketches you posted have compared to that one? get real. look at them closely, dont get fooled by colours or letters only.
    Im not saying they are bad but im saying the judgement was fair.

    um...homeboy,
    do you understand the term letter structure?
    "you want the keep the letter, but at the same time...you want to lose it."
    tell me who said that,
    then i'll know what you're talking about.
    and be specific about which sketches you're talking about,
    i had the time to go through each and every one to pick them out,
    so go ahead and bust me on this one by telling me they suck and making atleast half the people on here agree with you.
    maybe that wont happen - maybe you just can't see something?

    Bilil tariq, judging from the entries you chose as a top ten.. It is obvious that you are not as experienced as atome.. No offence..
    You are judging by letter structure purely.. But being a not as experienced as atome, you can't see style and flow as well...
    The one you chose as first place isn't even that good.. Deffinatly not the best.. Atome's choice wasn't that back.. And you're not the one to judge anyway, he is..
    So Enjoy the show and stfu.. No offence dude =]

    Hahaha "bilal tariq" you suck.. You obviously doesn't know shit... "Why wasn't this 3rd place? let alone winner" Because it wasn't good enough! But your ass can't see that! Atome could.. But you're not good enough...

    "those letters are ugly as fuck.
    they don't even FLOW for fuck's sake." Oh my god you don't know what the hell you're talking about!! Those pieces has nothing but flow.. Those letters are dope! Come back in a few years and look at it again, and you will realize..

    Now... Come back at me cursing at me and being mad and shit, again hahahaa...
