Yeah - making a system might be easier. I was a little confused about the tourny too - I only posted up one verse myself (instead of two). I think syllables, punches, multis are more important - but we're on the internet - you have no real feud between the people you're battling and for the most part you dont know shit about them. In my 2 on 2 battle, I couldn't tell you a damn thing about my opponents personal life except I was just supposed to blast them.
What it came down to was who I was feeling more, and that's who I voted for.
