I will not be able to attend.

I hope this event goes well and is continued.

When we approach an opponent from outside of engagement, we crowd, and foul their weapons. Engagement comes almost immediately after that. Out here, it's very clearly "if you know they are there you are engaged". People tend to err on the side of caution when crowding, but also expect the ...

I'm not a fan of DFB as we're fighting, and DFB isn't.

I do see merit in dead on the ground, or "you must rise immediately. If you can not, or if it isnot safe, you must yield."
