    Poll(?) on interest in weapons-specific tapes

    Ok, here's an attempt at a poll. It's not so much a poll as an inventory count.

    Let's see if it works.

    Guess there's not much interest in an epee-specific tape...

    I'm moving ahead with foil and sabre. Check the order form:

    Heh, you must have done some serious editing-out of the down time to get foil down to 2/3 of the length of the sabre!

    If the original version called for two 3-hour tapes and one 2-hour tape, changing it to weapon-specific should still fit into two 3-hour tapes and one 2-hour tape. Unless you can quote some Banach-Tarski paradox for editing.

    In any case, the sabre tape includes 1.5 semi-final bouts for the women's sabre, and complete coverage of both men's and women's team events.

    The foil tape does not include any semi-final bouts, and only two bouts of the women's foil team match. And no medals ceremonies for women's individual or team. (That's the way it was, not my doing. I did edit out about a minute's worth of slo-mo replay after the match is over in the women's team foil event. The clock showed 1:59:30 elapsed on the tape.)

    What's wrong with women's epee? They're usually the best in technical skills than all the other weapons.

    er, there are many people in the world that don't like women's anything, they have no gratitude for their mothers,

    BUT TO THE TAPES: can you keep some tapes until after the new year?
