What you say makes sense, Gnort. However, I would not ever equate common sense with Drey. I believe he's proven just how few wits he has.

As a final note, all my decisions on this matter were with the hopes of preserving a sense of respect and prestige to the throne. It is not a title I believe should be easily earned or easily kept. It's no secret that I wasn't a big fan of Avery's, but I held respect for him. I don't see how anyone could not.

I had planned on participating in the Baronial tournament to give the would-be winner a tougher time at earning the Overlordship. But I feel I cannot risk winning the title when many of you seem to think that my overall goal here was to make it easier for me to win it. Therefore, I wish to make it crystal clear that my intentions on this matter were never self-serving:

I hereby withdraw from the tournament.

The challenge was over a wager. I had a lot of money on me coming out winning.

I was screwed outta my dang challenge.

Now I got money on the tournament. Not that I want to be Overlord, because even if I got the title I'd probably retire just to piss everyone off.

I don't like you, you, nor you. But what does it matter? I just like to duel, and especially in tournaments and challenge matches which are fun. Why can't I challenge over a wager, or why can't I challenge for the sport? This is a sport. My honor is all about the sport. So if you tell me I have no honor, then you are here for the wrong reasons. If Jonalyn or big headed Ian "Rex (coughs)" tells me I am unworthy of the title, then they are here for the
whole wrong reason.

I'm here to have my fun. I realized that now. I don't have to prove anything, just make wagers and win. If you can't handle that, do what Dae says, stand back in a 20 mile radius because I sure don't care.

I wanted to challenge Avery's theory too. Theory he was the best duelist when it comes to a challenge match. I just want my money now.

"What you say makes sense, Gnort. However, I would not ever equate common sense with Drey. I believe he's proven just how few wits he has."

Or how few wits you have. You're not here for the sport, you're here to belittle and mock the rest of us. At least I have the common sense not to mock an entire community... And the funniest thing is, people back the mockery up.


And Ian,
I can joke whenever I want, and even if I'm unsure of it. I'm sure Avery has been unsure of many things in his life. But does it matter? No. Are you a moose? yes. And I'm not sure what that means. So what? Go away, you wannabe Overlord.


Teehee.

And my point is proven. You're denser than I thought if you say I'm not here for the sport. History itself says otherwise.

You say you don't mock the entire community? You couldn't be more wrong. Your very words and actions mock everyone and everything in the arena.

Master Starke,

One need nae point out yuir lack 'o 'onor, yuir doin' th' mos' adroitly, boyo.

Yuir ta lamest excuse fer a Baron wh' hae been around since Methous. Ye hae nae sense 'o wh' th' sport be, nor 'o wh' 'onor be. Ye be a witless lout wh' some'ow found yuir way from ta Rhydin Nursery ta th' basement.

Tis such ast thee wh' make a mockery 'o th' ancient an' 'onorable sport, laddie buck. Ye also hae nae ta wit ta realize jus' exactly wh' a joke ye yuirself be. Yuir 'ere fer all ta wrong reasons, boyo.

Ye challenged fer ta mantle an' now declaim th' ye dinna want it. Ye sound like a petulant child whose toys hae been put away fer th' evenin'.

Ah should wonder th' annaone wouldst accept a wager wi' thee, ye canna be trusted ta cough up ta coin when ye lose. Res' assured, laddie, yuir 'onor be nae 'bout ta sport, ye hae none. Wh' yuir about be little more th' provin' afore all, jus' wh' an ignorant dolt ye aire.

Res' assured, also, Master Starke, were thee by some twist 'o fate ta actually manage ta garner ta mantle, few wouldst express little bu' relief were thee ta retire it upon th' same instant. Thee taint ta sport, boyo, thee taint th' verra air, ast well ast thee dishonor 'e unto whom thee didst issue challenge.

Hike up yuir nappies, Master Starke, yuir leavin' a yellow puddle in yuir wake.

Bluntly,
Jonalyn Starfare

Drey~

Have your fun all you want, but you had damned well better be prepared of the consequences of *how* you go about "having your fun". Step on people, and they're likely to step back. Take some gods bedamned responsibility for your actions, boy.

It's sad, in a way.

Just the other day, I was telling someone how frightening it was that Drey was one of the more sensible Barons.

Either this infantile, whining petulance (I mean, really; I've only been monarch of New Caithness since before Drey stopped soiling his own drawers, yet he seems to think my title is some form of arrogance) is proof of my poor ability to judge character, or you should all be VERY frightened. Take your pick.

Regards,
Ian Rex,
Being totally, deadly serious for the moment.

Drey,
I duel to have fun, too.

But you're in it for the money. You said it yourself you want the money. You are seeking to improve your financial stance, and using "I like to have fun" as a shield for your greed.
If you do not want to be Overlord, if you do not feel worthy to be Overlord, or whatever, don't enter the tourney. If you retire it just like you are saying you will, then there would have to be another Baron's Tourney.
Either be an idiot Overlord and let someone come and kick the crap out of you, or don't enter the tourney where you would retire the title and we would have to go through this over again.
God, I know there are times when I think too fast and my logic isn't immediately seen, but I see no logic in your actions whatsoever; merely an act of greed.
Entering the tourney and challenging Avery only because you are getting money out of it merely makes you a whore.

>History itself says otherwise.

History itself says you beat a few Barons, not that you beat them for the sport.

>Your very words and actions mock everyone and everything in the arena.

Tell me how I am mocking anyone. Talk about dense.


Jonalyn,

I'm glad I'm reaching to you. You seem pretty mad. My honor is my fun, and my fun is my honor. You can't tell me I have no honor, because you have your own definition. You can't define honor you thimble-headed gherkin.

Sidartha,

Responsibility for what? Come back to me when you actually know what you're talking about.

Var,

Wagers can't be fun? I've a lot of money, and I like spending. Not that it is greed, but a duel can be more than a duel. I make it more.

Anyway... Hello everyone.

You don't know your history, do you?

And I don't need to cite specific examples of how you mock people and things. That is done simply with your very existence.

Master Starke,

Ta only thin' ye may be reachin' ist th' nappie yuir wearin', though Ah am certain ye can't e'e manage th' wi' out a map. Yuir a joke, Master Starke, foisted upon th' ancient sport by some whimsical fate.

Tis ye wh' canna define 'onor, Starke, though th' comes ast nae surprise. Ast ta tellin' thee ye hae nae 'onor, Ah mos' assuredly nae only can, bu' hae an' ta proof 'o mine comment be yuir own blatherin', snivelin', whimperin', juvenile attempts ta present yuirself ast other th' wh' thee truly be. A joke, a jest, a laughable if pitiable little man whose name shall be forgotten wi'in mere moments 'o yuir demise er fortuituous disappearance by those
wh' truly 'onor th' ancient sport.

Responsibility for what, you say? Read what I wrote again. Every word. If you need help, consult a dictionary.

I, however, would be quite happy to cite specific examples. I'll even take them all from one post so you don't get confused.

"...even if I got the title I'd probably retire just to piss everyone off.

...big headed Ian "Rex (coughs)"

...Ian,...Are you a moose? yes. And I'm not sure what that means. So what? Go away, you wannabe Overlord. Teehee."

Barons, I beg of you a favor. You were quick to put your foot down to demand your right to decide the fate of Overlord Shiv Blade, and quick to determine that fate. Be equally quick in dispatching Mr. Starke in his quest to gain the mantle of Overlord. He is unworthy of such an honor, and the symbols of the Arena have been tarnished enough without his help.
