If you can keep your focus, then I will teach you some basic strategies.

But only if you pay attention.

I get it, I get it. No being late, and no dozing off. It's not like this is math. Or reading. Or history. Or science.

Re: [AUDIO] sternjudgment September 18 2011, 06:56:58 UTC

...Save for the fact that they are all involved in proper strategy forming.

Re: [AUDIO] twicethepower September 18 2011, 17:26:40 UTC

You seem not to realize that swordplay is just as much science as it is art.

Techniques that have been passed down from teachers to students throughout the ages all have their roots in carefully formulated strokes and parries that follow the laws of physics. Using your opponent's momentum to your advantage, blocking what would have been an otherwise fatal blow, predicting your opponent's next move based on their footing...

Repeat what I said.

Verbatim.

Re: [AUDIO] twicethepower September 18 2011, 18:28:28 UTC

... What's verbatim mean?

Re: [AUDIO] sternjudgment September 18 2011, 18:29:34 UTC

Using my exact words.

Re: [AUDIO] twicethepower September 18 2011, 18:32:10 UTC

What?! Oh, c'mon! That's impossible!

Re: [AUDIO] sternjudgment September 18 2011, 18:33:13 UTC
