Official Rules for Klingon Rap Battle:
Participants broken into pairs and get up on stage to insult his opponent other to generic beat loops, up to 3 minutes. Everybody gets one shot--no elimination rounds. Younger participant goes first. Winner is determined by audience response. Any trek language and/or English is acceptable, but people are going to bring kids to this so please restrict your swear words to Klingon, not English.
