OK, is this anti-gravity fencing, which would explain the tethers on their backs? (Or, "The enemy's gate is always down!" /geeky Ender reference.)

@labeled: The tethers are attached to the electronic scoring devices so when they make a point it shows up on a screen. Helps the judges.

@everythingsfree: Well, lack of available facilities aside, I like my version better.

@choufleur: I am so envious of those of you with the ability to edit - mine gives me a "You can only edit within 15 minutes" message - even if it's only a minute later. le sigh. But I trust it'll be up and running soon. I'm finally getting the hang of the whole posting thing (HINT: do not read comments and get sucked in before clicking "view all comments" or whatever) but I miss the collapsible comment thread bubble things, to be honest. And I think I hated them when they first rolled out!

@choufleur: Having fenced all 3 weapons, I can say that sabre is in fact better. You don't have to wait a million years for things to happen. You don't even have to start the timer. Hell, when I fenced epee I was so good at it because I fenced it like a sabrist and all those slowpoke epeeists weren't expecting it MWAHAHAHAHA.
