    Cookeit earned his E07!!

    Woohoo, I earned my E07 on Sunday!!!
    I took 3rd of about 30 at a Senior Div 3.

    I lost to some guy who has been fencing since before I was born... =[.
    20 years vs 1.5 years...

    Oh well.

    Congratulations. It looked like an unnecessarily tough field to earn an E.

    Not to steal your thunder, but it looks like Nancy Hua had quite the day.

    Also, you fence pretty heavy on counterattacks, don't you? I could be wrong, because I'm just basing that off a numbers hunch.

    Heh, I don't think you've got any reason to doubt it.


    Also, congratulation.

    Usually I don't, but this was my second day fencing back since a 2 month hiatus (I cant run cross-country and fence at the same time ).
    So I wasn't really confident enough to attack for some reason.

    So basically I would just get a decent lead then sit back and abuse my reach.
    Hence why 4 of my bouts timed out.

    Good luck with getting National Point, nein. You might consider a classification as an intermediate step.

    I hate it when my doubts time out.
