::knows that getting into this is a big deal and he'll have to deal with it::

I have been around for about a year and a month, seeing only Dalamar as Overlord. I have seen him go through his defenses of many with striding colors. I have seen the thoughts of all who have posted about the past 3 days and I do have to say this...

The people who have said their opinions on this matter are opinions. You can feel differently about someone's opinion, but you can't change it. Responding to an opinion, I feel, is very disrespectful in that it is their thoughts and should only be questioned in person. You can make an opinion, but it is rude to make an opinion on someone elses opinion. Therefore, with this post, I would like to see it stand alone. One of the few to go on these
boards without a response. I would not feel good to see someone say something about my opinion and I'm sure that if you want to talk to me about it, you can do it in person.

My opinion is as follows: I believe that a rematch should be scheduled. I am a constant Fists dueler and have found that not showing up for a match can result in a few things. There can be an Opal Quest, or the ring could be given to the challenger, and even a rematch. The first thing to happen out of these things is a rematch. If the person doesn't show up for their 2nd rematch, the Opal is given to the challenger, due to forfeit. If the
person gives notice of something gone wrong and cannot make the scheduled rematch, then the match goes on hold until an appropriate time can be found.
Now, I know that Swords and Fists are much different from each other. But there is one thing that is held highly in both. That is honor and loyalty. Except, in Fists, you don't say if you're loyal or not, you have your opinion and loyalty to anyone (most likely the Diamond) is kept to yourself. In Swords, the loyalty is opinionated by all. Now, what you may want to know is... "How does this relate to Dal and Huma?" Well, the answer is there.
You can either stand loyal to them or not, but opinion is held to yourself. So, as it goes in Fists, I believe the rematch should be scheduled.

As AJ said it...
"These are m' thoughts that I felt I needed to share, so that all may know where I stand even if m' thoughts may not 'ave any bearing on the voting which is in progress."
