Hi all, our league has just banned the use of flicking. So I just want to ask what would the best strategy to win?

**whtouche** · 12-09-2003 11:33 PM

Um...thrusting?

What league is this? It sounds idiotic to me for a league to do something like this and utterly remove itself from the boundaries of reality.

hmmm...
yea, in agreement with whtouche..
and there are other ways to win other then flicking.

You mean like banning fleching in NJ highschool meets?

how can they ban flicking, just flicking to the back, or to 4, and 8 as well? Start practicing your disengages, because now you're gonna need 'em!!!

Flicking was your best strategy to win before? Uh oh.
