| Verily, foil is the one true weapon. We don't even need a thread of our own to accumulate rep. Leave it to an epeeist to try to sabotage us...
No rep! Let us keep our reputation pure, and not ill-gotten through conspiracy. | |

No rep! Let us keep our reputation pure, and not ill-gotten through conspiracy. | I agree, the epeeists have probably been dying for us to start a thread similar to their "I'm an epeeist, nobody loves me, give me rep" thread.
Sorry, ain't gonna happen...

| So what about us fencers who don't have a "chosen weapon" and fence with all 3 weapons equally?
Are we just the unwanted bastard children of the fencing world??

| I'd like to think of them as in the middle of a sex change...they aren't really anything until they pick...Foil or Epee'..because come on, Sabre isn't really an option.
