Re: Combat sports on a ketogenic diet

Eat soon before fighting. When I was low carbing, I would crash pretty hard in the early stages.

Re: Fighting culture in the Middle Kingdom

Nissan is very vocally opposed to knee fighting. The arm statement is because in many places, it is considered unchivalrous to arm hunt. In some of those it has morphed into any arm shot being looked down upon.

They are already planning a lawsuit. On the IE facebook page they are talking about it. If the talk of lawsuits is in mockery of the lawsuit talk from the IE camp from a couple of years ago, ok. If they are serious though, they just lost all sympathy and support from me. We went through some shit a...

Re: Any body making exotic metal Armor ?

I don't think anyone was overly offended, although some people don't always come off sounding well. What was said is true, though. There are some incredibly talented armorers here, both amateurs and professional. It's going to be a hard sell to get someone to commission a piece from you with no armo...

They were not originally designed for fiberglass spears, or so I was led to believe. And you would be correct.

That might be what I was remembering. I know I thought about that but was still more interested in a corazzina. Wishful thinking I suppose.

Side question, is Cet only doing business from his facebook page now? I couldn't find his website.
