...Where it was written in the RP, explaining the logic, led me to believe it was part of his statement.

If you'd like some more proof to this claim that you haven't been reading the RPs, here ya go:
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>my RP</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div>I'm expecting him to be aggressive (he has to be or he'll lose out on too many categories). that means I can expect a box rush, methinks. at any rate, I want to start as far forwards in my starting square as possible, directly opposite him. at the start of the match, watch for a rush. if he looks like he's doing that at all, immediately reverse to drive the wedge down.[/quote]
<blockquote class='quote_blockquote'><dl><dt>start of the match</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div>Green lights to engage! Both bots rush in at the start of the match, bouncing off each other.[/quote]
Look, I just flat out don't believe you - there's a lot of evidence against you, and I'd rather if you just admitted to it and expressed a willingness to fix and improve past mistakes

I'd admit it if I weren't reading them. But I do. I may not be the best writer, but I'm working to be a better writer. That's the reason I found out about ARC and Hammerfall in the first place

How did I win the match I thought i'd lose and lose the match I thought I'd win

I didn't write your Sirocco match. But c'mon, your most armored spot on Rebellious Activity can still be OHKOed. And the rest of your armor? That's 9 points below Vorpal Bunny's blade.

But the way his plow is shaped, the corners are very blunt, to the point where I'm not sure I'd count them as corners. Given RA's speed advantage it seems very hard for VB to actually pull off a side hit, but I guess if it does the flat surface damage will two-shot an opponent. I dunno...
Anyway, we should probably drop the drama over results. At this point, the tournament's over and what's done is done. Yeah, I and the other writers have made some poor decisions, but like I said, hopefully we'll learn from them.
