Perhaps, those can be edited in. Than again, perhaps not.. Anywho, Monseiru, I'll start posting before long here.

And dammit, GaoGaiGar.

er... are these shoulder rolls... like ducking and weaving, or actually rolling on the round with the upper part of your body?

Mixture of both.

Example:

Let's say, you perform a shoulder roll with your left arm. This causes your left shoulder to come forward, and your arm to tuck back to the right.

Simply as I can put it, I basically took advantage of the fact that I was already more or less in that position, and charged in with a shoulder-ram. XD;

Think of it as something like that, except angled a bit more mid-level-to-upward.

Point: If you have to keep asking me to reopen fights over a matter of hours, why not just post a day earlier?

I don't see you arguing over the other fight I closed, which left you in the advantageous position. Only the one that you couldn't be bothered to respond to for three and a half days.
Hell, I thought that other one was locked with my loss too, my thought stream thingie isn't exactly totally coherent these days what with all the busy I've got, just that I didn't give a damn about that fight because I've never liked Joe anyway.

As for me not making all my posts at once, I think "I'll do it tomorrow when I'm less tired" and usually end up just as bad when tomorrow comes, so I put it off till the next "tomorrow" in hopes that it'll be a better day for me, and then when that day comes along with the imminent limit if I'm still doing bad I satre at the screen for half an hou before halfassing a post. Sometimes I have good days, but this week sure as hell aint' gonna be it

That's also the reason why I'm not posting in Kyetino vs. Raine right now. I literally can't evne read her post rightnow.

Yes, but that's really the danger of having so many people entered at once. If you can't do 5 fights at once, don't enter 5 characters and expect to fight with them all. Poor planning, there... plus it sort of cheapens the entire event by stacking the deck in some people's favor.

I'm not going out of my way to be an a**, but in O/M you are in like EVERY ONE of the open fights, and singlehandedly holding up the next round. In addition most of the other brackets are thinning down, and I'm not going to look the other way when fights are going on like I would for the first couple of posts when a round starts.

If you're not going to make it in time, you need either an extension or a good excuse. There's a time limit that has been there for months, and I'd like to hope that it's getting respected... even if that means doing a quick post when you're tired just for the purposes of moving things along.

As for Kvs.R, the limit is a week, but that is, again, the limit. There's no arguing your way out of going over for a week's time, and doing one post per week is just painful to say the least.


When brackets wind down to Quarterfinals (8 fights), Semifinals (4 fights), and Finals (2 fights) I'll probably be pretty lenient with the time limit, though that's not an excuse to slack off. Just that once we get that far it's sort of an injustice to not let fights actually end.


@ h X c: I would but I'm lazy... and making threads really pisses me off because it's a 3 minute wait between your last post (of any type) and a new thread, so I can't even post in OOC while waiting for a timer to tick down.

Gragh... i apologize for the hold-up, Jello. I'm waiting for Shaggy's reply to my PM, so that we can get this all said and done with.

*Yawn* I have like 6 fights and I usually don't make people wait more than two days. Hell, I often reply as soon as I see it.

But yeah, feel free to stop listening to me when I think I want to wait for Gelmax.

No prob, no prob. If you ever need anything clarified, feel free to ask.

And, I'll totally post a few times before long here; bought a new domain & web host plan [$60 total, about 50 for the set-up fee,] and currently screwing with IPB's older versions for the message boards. Basically: I'm patching up IPB v1.3.1 final, then making it look like 2.1.x/2.2, then modifying that look, then modifying the boards themselves, then..

God dammit, IPB and your.. selling out. :Toad:

I wonder if anyone realized this guild has 30,000 posts, and over two thirds are in this thread. >.>

Well duhr'. It's the OOC.

It's like this Guild's General Discussion/Chatterbox combined into one bloated topic. domokun
