^ If I were a Greek then you would be a Roman. I might be the one to come up with some vague idea of a new concept but you would be the one who actually shapes it, gives it substance and makes it real.

Romans were total jerks, though.

^ I wouldn't say that at all. From what I've read so far since you've been back has really impressed me. It serves as great reminder to me how much the Gunjin suffers with out such a great veteran writer to challenge many of the new guys who sport similar skill. A couple of the new faces (well new to me anyways) as well as some of the guys who have been around for 5 plus years but never really got the respect they deserve (Acradius I'm looking at you) haven't really that many options for a decent fight now a days.

The more people with your skill the better tourneys will be as well as individual battles.

I actually see noticeable improvement, Phenom. So reply to my topic, you bum. If you want to fight someone else, jus say so ;) I haven't sunk teeth into your prose since that long ago NLBFT.

I should challenge all the tournament people, since I can't fight them directly in the tournament--

Sarai Sez:

I admit, I'm a bit confused. Given that this is a tournament, and the people are competing with each other, and usually each fight/write has a 'winner' and a 'loser'....

So technically you are the first person to do so. Makes me ashamed that I didn’t think of that first…..

Vapor, I'm kind of curious that, after reading the reactions to the first round, you're still using an intro whose first word (and only explanation of your character's appearance) is a link to the BoW. You did catch that none of the judges look favorably on that at all, right?

Yeah, you should try writing a short description of your character instead, Vapor. It's not too hard, and it helps you realize short details you might have missed in your main bio.

I only use my bio for reference by other fighters, anyway. It changes organically from tiem to time, as Metal Man is sort of a flexible character in general.

Maybe too flexible.

Wait, did you just edit in more description, Vapor?

Bad idea.

Kargath, we've all been editing our posts to some degree or another. Or I have. Small stuff, yeah, mostly grammar, but it's still been happening.

... I do not look fondly upon this. In fact I consider it a form of cheating the system.
Therefore:
From this point forth, if I see that you have edited a post in the battle topic, I will detract at minimum two points from the score I give you.
