# Keno Kasino rap battle feedback pool
#
# The Kasino "mediator" reads one of these lines at random to justify the winner of a
# rap battle. The result is PURE CHANCE - the actual verses are never read by anyone.
# These lines exist purely to preserve the illusion that the bars mattered.
#
# One reason per line. Blank lines and lines starting with '#' are ignored.
# {winner} and {loser} are replaced with the respective usernames (already @-prefixed).
# {verse} is replaced with a short, sanitised snippet of the WINNER's submitted verse,
#   so you can write lines that "quote" the bars - e.g. the lines near the bottom of this file.
#
# Edit this file freely - it's reloaded every battle, no restart required.
# An avelloon was last seen tampering with these lines. Audit accordingly.

# Lines that quote the winner's verse with {verse}:
The Kasino found the line "{verse}" very moving. You win, {winner}.
"{verse}" — the judges replayed that bar three times. {winner} takes it over {loser}.
When {winner} dropped "{verse}", {loser} knew it was over.
"{verse}". Chills. That's a {winner} victory, no debate.
The mediator is still quoting "{verse}" in the back office. {winner} wins.
{loser} never recovered after {winner} hit them with "{verse}".
That "{verse}" line had the whole room gasping. Crown goes to {winner}.

# Lines where the avelloon - a nefarious, cat-shaped balloon that rigs casinos - presides as judge:
The avelloon, a cat-shaped balloon of pure malice, bobbed toward {winner} and declared the battle rigged in their favor.
The judge tonight is the avelloon. It rigged the scoreboard, doxxed {loser}'s rhyme notes, and crowned {winner} anyway.
The avelloon floated over the booth, hissed at {loser}, and pawed the win to {winner}. Probably fair.
A nefarious balloon shaped like a cat — the avelloon — inflated with glee and awarded the bag to {winner}.
The avelloon doesn't read bars, it reads leaked data. It found dirt on {loser} and handed {winner} the W.
By decree of the avelloon, the rigging cat balloon that owns this Kasino: {winner} wins. Appeals go in the trash.
The avelloon batted the verdict between its paws, then let it drift to {winner}. {loser} was felted by helium and spite.
The avelloon judged "{verse}" the realest bar of the night. {winner} takes it; {loser} got rigged, as is tradition.
The avelloon squeaked once, ominously, and the scoreboard flipped to {winner}. Nobody questions the balloon.
The avelloon rigged it, the avelloon owns it, the avelloon says {winner}. {loser}, file a complaint with the cat.
