    Looks to me like you already have those 4 dots. Congratulations.

    Hey - I took my first private epee lesson last week. And it made sense. This is getting to be an expensive obsession. But at least I don't have to buy a lame for this one.

    of course it made sense. it was epee.
    just make sure you have a well-padded glove. i got a new one when i switched to epee to protect the outside of my hand.

    Got this in my rep box... and am going to use it to bump this thread.

    Good advice, you wonderful EPEEist ;-) Alain

    (I'm guessing that was Alain's french half making a pass at me!)
    Take your time. Read carefully.

    For this upcoming sabeth I humbly suggest another round of EPEE solidarity with our brother and sister scholars of truth! Lets pass that EPEE rep collection plate around again! What do you say?

    Yes, I RULE!

    I have 80+ more Rep points than I have total posts!

    This could only happen to an EPEEist!

    Thanks for noticing

    I was NOT making a pass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    English people are allowed to compliment people without making a pass, aren't we..?

    Aaaaaaanyway... for all you lady épéeists out there: you're wonderful, beautiful, and simply amazing, have you lost weight? For the male épéeists: nice one, mate. Everyone: keep up the good work!

    Have a good weekend everyone

    I think that Hebrew has a vowel harmony system similar to Hungarian and Finnish. I've been told that words with Hebrew roots cannot have both the letter "A" and the letter "E" - it's strictly an either or situation...

    People who think their name is "Jared" should be spelling it Jered or Jarad.

    BUT that point aside, yes Mr Epee will be passing the plate and he hopes that no one has fallen asleep. Cvlle you have already received EPEE points this morning, so you're blocked for a while.

    UP the EPEEs!!!

    No! What I meant to say was that you look - if indeed possible - more stunning today than ever before

    So then you're implying that to look good we have to lose weight and be extremely skinny? How close minded!
    Just kidding but I couldn't resist.

    I am an epeeist at heart, I find I am treading on that fine line before you fall over and become a “serious” fencer... so I guess add my name to this chain letter
    There is not a binary opposition between slow and jumpy bouncy. I'm one of those jumpy hoppy fencers, but I definitely take my time in setting up an attack...or if I'm more than a couple points ahead I hardly attack at all

    Don't you hate it when people ask you 'have you lost weight?' I have never needed to lose weight and never have lost weight, yet people use this stupid remark as a complement. It seems to me like they're saying "hey, you looked horrible before, but you're looking better now, thank God." I know people don't mean it that way, but it drives me crazy.

    yeah, the hottest chick fencers all seem to be EPEEISTS..i wonder why!!??? maybe because hot chicks are also usually smart and of course, quite naturally will choose the best weapon of all..
