It got me right, foil. It didn't have any answers that pertained to me for some of the questions. Like the one about getting mugged, I'd grab whatever sharp object was nearby and stab the bastard.

The quiz gave me epee. Absolutely nothing wrong with that test.

I still think, however, that epee should be characterized as :

You're an epee. Slow to anger and patient but quick to strike when inflamed.

I belive it to be very possible to be crazy and fence epee. I mean... I do it. I guess not too badly, either.

the quiz assumes that sabreusts are strong and buff and cuzz and beat tar out of people...not me at all
im quite and tiny and thin and agile...
so it called me an epeeist

i dont really know that sabre 'is my weapon' since i have never tried epee or foil

I think you have to get into the mentality of your weapon, then answer the questions. . .
