| Right of Way Rep Thread To overcome the epeeists.
As an inbred group they all sit there and rep each other. This must be countered! |

| Yeah... those terrible epeeists!
Let all of the non-epeeists get together and rep each other.
Okay... rep away.... I'm here with my shiny foil in one hand and my sabre in the other.... rep away... I'm waiting...

| There is no way that I will fence epee. To prove my foiliness(said with lisp) I just put together 2 foils last night for my club. I even stayed up til 3AM to finish them.

| So, I've repped most of you...
Anyhow with all this rep left and right- do you think any of us can get reputationally transmitted diseases?

| Perhaps I just gave it to you becuase I felt sorry for you.
I mean lying to get rep, if you have that little self respect that rep means that much to you  |

| LOL... I was just behaving like the foilists in the epee thread.... I really didn't expect to get away with it, as I'm one of the top posters in the "Epeeist Only" thread.
Seak I will rep you when I can, because you're a good sport. right now I can't because I've given out too much in 24 hours.

We get repped by each other for deftly and appropriately skewering epeeists with words which is a piece of cake since they never really parry anyway.

| Well, it's the epeeists at our club that keep everything running. The foilists are at a loss even when it comes to no on-target lights going off, let alone fixing their own weapons, if you can call them that.

| So... I'm thinking the "right of way" thing is a good thing. It teaches aspiring epeeists to keep their arms out and extended in their most effective position when lunging. Good learning tool!
