I know the rules quite well Elijah. If you refer to my challenge against Galin long ago. The applicable rule there was not in the stated rules that were present at that time. Therefore, for whatever reason, that rule had ceased to be. I didn't violate any rule, at that point. I simply didn't go by a rule that wasn't there. The Commission had to reassert the rule into
the rulebooks using it's presence from prior times before the challenge was overturned. I still don't quite understand though why I'm talking to a guy who's died practically more times then I have fingers. You should start a resurrection service, Elijah.

Nova, you only really said one thing worth replying to. You claim Sar stated that he was planning on challenging long before I made my vow, when in fact he never said that at all. What he said was that he had been planning on challenging weeks ago. I can assure you quite clearly that my vow was made before then. I gave my word to myself the moment I declared myself
Loyal, and that was before Sar had even begun really showing his face back around our community's hospitable home again.
You say I make assumptions? Well that's the second time you have simply assumed Sartan said something he never said in the first place. Because you saw what you wanted to believe his words meant, and not what his words said. Wake up, Nova, and take the time to actually read instead of simply taking in only what you want and discarding the rest.

Strallen,

You are a big dummy.

I'll let Nova take this and make you look even worse. Not that difficult anyway.

Strallen,

I'm sorry I used too many big words for you to actually read what I've written, since you only found one point to reply to - and even your reply to that was pretty far off from my point. I'll try harder here. I'm close friends with Sartan. I've heard him say he was going to challenge for Overlord no matter who was Overlord on a couple of occasions. Your intent to challenge didn't kick in until one week ago. I've known of his intent for longer
than that. You see, and all use a bigger pen here to make it stand out more, Your intent to challenge began on December 14th, that's when Seamus was beaten. Are we clear?
I won't hold my breath that we are. But just in case that sunk in, Sartan's intent to challenge for the crown was there before Seamus lost because, you see, it didn't matter who was Overlord. You can claim ignorance of this, just as much as anyone can claim ignorance of your intent that wasn't in the Annex last week. Only difference is, Sartan isn't so full of himself that he had to announce something as intangible as intent to challenge. He just
challenged.
But good for you. As I said, I don't know the rules in Strallenland. I urge you to go back and read my spiel on self-importance.
Trust me, buddy. I've announced intent before. I did it when Dalamar was Overlord. Intent means absolutely zero unless you make that challenge. Again, I ask, in Strallenland, how long should someone wait to give you the opportunity to follow through on your intent to avoid your ire?

Hello GnrtDrgoon,

In reference to your comment:

è I Intend to change my name to "Bob the Viking, Elf
è Slayer Extraordinaire, and Friend to Plaid Wearing
è Ogres Everywhere"

Can't. It's already been taken.

"Maybe all the other barons should camp out in front of Charlie's house and follow her to the Arena on the day she puts up the standings, then they can all throw their pieces of paper at her and see which one she reads first."

That's called stalking and it tends to tick my husband off.

To whomever the big dummyhead who said my intended name is taken...

I intend to beat up whoever has my intended name, and I intend to take that intended name intentionally for me.

"You know, long ago, people had this insane idea that the world didn't revolve around caring about only themselves."

Which, I surmise, would explain why it's even an issue to you at all that Sartan beat you to the Registrar's Office to file his claim. After all, that wouldn't be about you at all, would it?

Regards,
Ian Rex.

I intend to rule the world. I also intend to have a harem of gorgeous women -- former title holders all -- who will grant me my every whim, no matter how depraved, and always refer to me as "Your Glorious and Omniscient Munificence."

I also intend to make all Barons and the Overlord subservient to me in all things, and act as my personal puppets, as well as intending to co-opt the Arena staff, forcing them to do my bidding (part of which involves making all female callers wear nothing but a bow tie on duty).

I intend to compel G'nort to admit his lack of essential worth, to cause Var to develop a sense of humor, and to ban all undesirables from the Arena.

And I intend to cure all disease with a mere flick of my fingers, and end hunger and poverty on a galactic level.

And if anyone interferes with my intentions, why, I'll beat them up. That's how it's done, correct?

Regards,
Ian Rex.

All right,

I Intend to convince Ian and Jona to come back to the Arena to hang out regularly.

Now that I'm done scaring you, I'm going to intend to sleep now.

Interestin'...

Y'know, I think I kin recall some time way back afor I e'er even wore a Ring hearin' the Warlord Sartan sayin' thet one day he would challenge fer th' Crown.
O'course, thet were back durin' Dalamar's reign... so he certainly weren't gonna do it then.
Still, accordin' tae what Baron Corackshnea be sayin', thet be clearly th' Warlord statin' his intent tae challenge... one day anyway.
So e'eryone who's e'er challenged fer the Crown since th' days when Dalamar wore it was obviously bein' rude an' steppin' in on th' Warlord's "Intent".
Since I were one o' those people, I's'll start. Warlord Sartan, I am sorry I challenged Overlord Ganderfald when I knew thet one day ye'd want tae challenge fer the Crown. Ifin me own challenge caused any problems with ye tryin' tae challenge...

That's life. O'course, ye knew thet already... Tae bad th' Baron Corackshnea don't get it.

One last thing.
Baron Corackshnea... yer vow were tae challenge th' person thet beat Overlord MacDonnaugh. Well, Seamus din't duel a whole bunch o' people durin' his tenure, but he lost tae a few o' them. Ifin this don't be about th' Crown, then ye'd best be about challengin' e'ery single person thet beat Seamus in a duel while he were Overlord.
Ifin ye vowed tae challenge th' person who beat Overlord MacDonnaugh for th' Crown... then it be about th' Crown.

I thought you were serious in the beginning. I am getting confused too easily now.
