The least likely influence...

Weird. Very weird. Since around a year ago, it seems that people have imitated me as though I were some kind of influential figure. Examples thereof:

* I once used a "small tree branch", AKA "A really big stick", as a weapon in a match. Later on, around seven months ago, I noticed imitators using similar, albeit smaller, sticks as weapons.

* On my second duel, before the match, I was bored, so I futilely juggled swords. Around a week ago, a duelist was juggling swords out of boredom.

* Around 8 months ago, I used a folding chair as a DoS weapon. Although I probably wasn't the first, afterwards it got very popular...

* Today, I jokingly drew a toy lightsaber that I said I'd use as a weapon. Not 10 seconds later, another dude I'd never seen before drew a REAL one.

Thankfully, nobody else has blatantly ripped off of Badminton Fury, which is my Hulkamania-esque source of power. Basically, I use a badminton racket as a weapon and scream incoherent phrases. I'm glad nobody else wants to try that.

A note to younger duelists: I am not a good role model. Good role models do not mix tea with ghilmnbv+asdf, or use badminton rackets as weapons, or run into ring posts and get knocked out. Tell me I'm not influential, please.

That's a shame. I heard a couple rodents living under the bar were tacking up posters of Quizxs, and holding sermons to praise him.
