And, Mr BadGuy... how come I see "epee" and "épée", hmmm? Aren't those different notations? Silenced.
It's épée. 'Epee' is how those of you spell it who can't find the accents on your keyboard.
Possibly for english layout keyboards you'll need to enter the ASCII code for the accent. Don't ask what code it is, just perform a forum search as this has been discussed...a number...of times before.
(And what the...is a sabrista? It sounds like you're trying to make up an italian word, or are you mistaking it for barista?! )

Yes, but those are two different spellings, so I say epeeists are the confused ones! If they really cared about their weapon they'd take the time to honour its spelling.
Yes! I've heard a few people used it, and I don't want to get mistaken from some smelly, sweaty, man fencer.

Laziness =/= not knowing what you're fencing is called!
If you think that epeeists, whenver they finally manage once a century to perform a keystroke, are going to use accent marks then you're crazy!

Go back to your love-in, hippie! Fencing is an agonistic sport, and participants are no supposed to "agree" on things!
Hippy?! If I was an epeeist, I'd understand, but hippy? I think you're trying to cover up the fact that sabristas and sabrists can't spell without adding shouts and screams in the middle the word.
They say the original name of Sabre was just Sab. Then, on one fateful day in alaska, a Sab fencer was asked what they fenced. What came out was: "Sab...brrrrrrrr".

I think you're HAVING a spell. I understand foilists are prone to those. Or just prone, from exhaustion after fencing a whole 5 touches.

Quote:
sabrista /sab/riss/tar/, n. 1) a vocation in which the practice of heated water generated by passing through a hot-headed sabre fencer, pressurised and forced through unwashed fencing uniforms. The result is a small volume of off yellow coloured extraction with a sour, somewhat salty taste and highly pungent in odour but not much else. The extraction is of no beneficial value, and should only be consumed in moderation. Consumption over extended periods of time may lead to general confusion and a somewhat dazed demeanour with occasional random violent outbursts. 2)Colloq. yet another term created by a sabreur (see sabreur) for a practitioner of sabre fencing.
Until you guys can collectively manage to agree that sabreur is in fact the correct term for one who fences sabre, and that you don't fence or fence with "sabers" you do not deserve your own little thread to augment your own collective back slapping.

Where is my red pencil?
This is the problem* with pointy-weapon fencers, they can't complete a phrase properly on strip OR off!
*Well, one of them, anyway.
