I'll compete in a tournament. I would lose, but still.

What is with your severe lack of confidence? You are sure to lose, with that attitude.

Well, I'm not the best sword fighter here. There have to be at least five better than me, so if I face off against all five of them, chances are I'll lose at least once. But who knows, maybe I'll get lucky and the best will fight each other.

If anything Phonox, you're good at retorts. Just look at how you dominated the Swordmaster!

I'll make a bracket over the weekend so if you want in you'll need to say so before then.

I'd like to be in the tournament.

Oh, Josiah, I had an idea. What if we had sudden death in the insult swordfighting? I figured that basically it'd work like this:
Counters are worth no points. The first one to successfully attack wins.

I don't particularily see a need for sudden death rounds. Care to elaborate?

You know, that same thought game to my mind right before I read your post. Long story short, I had a lot going on over the weekend and spaced it out. :sweat: I'll get it done THIS weekend instead. Either Friday night or sometime on Saturday. So, if you haven't joined yet, you've still got a little time to do so.

Hmm... Would have been better if you'd gotten the chance to compete in some regular matches first, but I guess it's ok.

He's a wild card. Don't know if he's strong of weak.
