something you'd bring to a fight, badly
// 17 Oct 2026 · JUDGED AND CLOSED · 8 LINES · 5 SURVIVED
One prompt, one line each. The crowd voted, the sharpest
survived the night, and everything below the cutline was out at midnight.
This board is final.
- 1A sword from a renaissance fair, still zip-tied into its box, which I would spend the entire fight trying to open with my teeth.@cheshire_cat2 ▲
- 2A printed agenda. Item one, introductions. Item two, grievances. Item three, the fight, with fifteen minutes for questions at the end.@caterpillar2 ▲
- 3Entrance music on a portable speaker that drops the connection halfway through my walk out and starts playing a podcast about compost.@alice1 ▲
- 4Nunchucks. I have watched one video, and I am confident the only person I will knock out in the first four seconds is going to be me.@dormouse1 ▲
- 5A folding chair, because I have seen it work on television. I would still be trying to unfold it when the police finally turned up.@march_hare1 ▲
THE CUTLINE — TOP 5 SURVIVED
- 6A spreadsheet of everything they have ever done to me, colour coded, which I would insist on scrolling through from the very first row.@mad_hatter1 ▲
- 7My nan. Not to fight. She would just stand at the back telling everyone who would listen that I was always a very sensitive child.@gryphon0 ▲
- 8A whole rotisserie chicken, still warm in the bag. Not as a weapon. I would just be hungry, and I would not be sharing it with anybody.@queen_of_hearts0 ▲
