i am curious, when voting do expos influence your vote i mean do you read a piece, not get it then get to the expo and enjoy the expo and say oh that was a nice bar seriously i gotta know how important they are to people that take the time out to vote

Sometimes when people use American people or culture or things that I don't understand or recognise, expos help. I wouldn't say they influence me, rather help me to understand what's being said.

I say fukk it... They never help...
Inna actuall battle you dont see people explainin shit after they said something
Really if i dont get it from the get go it aint shit to me.

No problem man

Its all individual preference..although the only time they effect my vote is when it's a personal that i didn't know about ..that's the only time i actually factor it in..other then that i go by the theory pest has ,if ya punchline really needs explainin, it cant be a very good punchline....
or is overly complex,,

As 32 Said Its Does Help For Us Forgeiners But It Doesnt Sway My Vote Just Lets Me Know What The Fuck They Were Sayin Lol

i used to use expos cause a lot of my shit use to fly over people's heads, voters weren't as intelligent or clever to catch it at the time, but nowadays i only use it for personals and i mark majority of my personals with *'s, but for voting, expos only help me see where a personal might be, they never helped otherwise and they don't determine who did better


in a live battle you never have the opportunity for expos, this gives that chance for it

keep in mind punches with wordplay or personals go over people's head.. especially those who don't know how to create a good punchline to begin with, the best type of voters are those who actually know every aspect of what they're voting on, but as its a free country that this site is found upon we can't really say "you don't know how to vote so u can't vote" lol

well, it kinda depends.
text, they help some times.. because some wordplay can get really intricate and complex.. where-as audio, its more-so obvious type plays, some wordplay, but its usually not very complex..
once an awhile something goes over my head, an when i read the concept im like ahhh, i understand.. but it rarely makes me look at the bar differently.
for personals it always helps, imo.. because if i come to a new site i don't know shit about any one usually.
