While I might agree with your sentiment normally, in this case the insult was directly towards their prowess. It seems only fitting that an offer of direct demonstration of their prowess be the form of response.

What day is CoTT on? I couldn't find it on the schedule... (I might have missed it)

Sunday evening after ToC, I believe.

Congrats! I hope you have an appropriate ransom then.

I so just thought of the "elevate me" scene from the movie “Young Frankenstein”...

Frederick Frankenstein: “Well, dear, are you ready?”
Inga: “Yes, Doctor.”
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: “Elevate me.”
Inga: “Now? Right here?”
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: “Yes, yes, raise the platform.”
Inga: “Oh. Ze platform. Oh, zat, yah, yah... yes.”

- Young Frankenstein - Movie

Congratulations by the way…

I love that movie.

And yeah i'll have enough coin

Ladies & Gentlemen,
I apologize for the scheduling of Warriors of History against the battle of Hastings. I was late in organizing the timing of WoH. By the time I got to the party, that was the best of a bad situation. Again, my sincere apologies to anyone unable to participate in both events.

Both events are happening, that's the important part.

Since the Captain has a dance card full of great fighters, I've decided to follow suit and insult the archive so I can join the fun. You're all mugwumps, pondsniffers, and justin bieber fans. I bet none of you kissed your Mom goodnight, and I bet you cannot teach me a thing. and if you want to dispute this, I'll be on the field wed. With a camera, and a big grin, and hoping to learn something. My shield is white with a big red cross, chickens! >:). Thanks in advance.

Justin Bieber fans??? Selena, sure, but Bieber?

Don't worry about it at all. Despite the griping most of us realize that the world does not revolve around us and we cannot have everything we want.

I had one squire piss and moan that one of my other guys was chosen for unbelted champions.
I pointed out to him that P**** had broken his ass training, while being shop steward for his union on a major build, and had done without a whole lot of things to make the time for travel and training

You don't like how it's done - train harder, work harder

I think these good gentlemen are merely offering to help a callow youth gain wisdom. and learn discression

I am surprised this thread has gone on this long. It should have been locked after the OP admitted he was wrong. I understand how some people can get upset over his comments but, sometimes it is the more honorable thing to do is to just walk away instead of posturing up on someone.

Personally I find this a lovely topic, since many of the respondents have rendered most courteous offers to test their suitability.

If/when I come out to the East Coast I'll be sending PM's to those individuals requesting similar demonstrations, and asking what their weapons of choice are so that I can come appropriately prepared.

I'm hoping to find the time to come and the renown / prowess / luck to Qualify to fight in CotT next year, so I'm sure that my "education" could be furthered by the gentlemen in question on the same trip.

I find it ironic (but very middle ages) that while I "play" a French loyalist with Fealty to Charles VII, my "hometown" in the Aquitaine is firmly English until after the close of the 100 years war.
