This is why I prefer NOT to spar with Taekwondo practitioners. I’m not saying they aren’t good, I mean look at my arm. Not a lot of restraint with these guys in my experience though. Good training I guess.

Edit: To be fair, it was absolutely my mistake. I’m not knocking any martial art. All styles have their own benefits. For example: proper Taekwondo kicks will @&$¥ you up.

What are you working with? I love me some guitar and I wish I had one right now. I played bass for a while too. I’d love to get my hands on both again so I can slap and slip into an actual escape.

Watched the New Mortal Kombat. It was Ok i guess.  They are trying to do the whole Multiple movie thing like Marvel and DC. It's not the original where is was all in one then they just made Annihilation to ride the success(poorly).    Don't know how well it will work.  Lots of story filler that slows down a movie about a fighting tournament game.

Oh my, that certainly looks like mistakes were made... though from the image hard to tell if it was by you or your opponent(s). I mean holding back properly is important, and attempting to not injure your partner (on purpose) but if you're admitting fault (full or partial) then plenty of blame to go around potentially. I have been injured in the past trying desperately to score a blow or go beyond reasonable limitations. Do I regret it? No. But do I have any lasting, or reoccurring damage as a result? Also no, so my opinion might be different otherwise. In my experience a good sparring duo know their own and each other's strengths, to avoid such things if possible, but grown ups do assess and assume risk accordingly. Still, that looks painful, and I know a fair bit about pain. Hope it was enlightening! Or at the very least fun...

Can't wait to see this one, and I'm not wholly adverse to sequels or series of movies if done well. I do enjoy the proper amount of storytelling in cinema myself. I mean MK is soooo storied in it's layered and differing histories. So laying groundwork can play out well if done well, and having good pacing. But yeah, I can see the annoyance if you're hyped up for action and fatalities and get 45 min of "once upon a time" or some such. Still looking forward to seeing it/them eventually.

Mostly me. Almost exclusively in my opinion. Not knowing my opponent would be my only excuse, but let’s face it, that is no excuse at all.

EXACTLY!!! -1 for warrior mentality!

It looks worse than it is. Sorry to hear that you are so familiar with pain. I think I can relate. Combat is always enlightening and it’s usually pretty fun. Smiley

Ha, yeah bruising can be that way... deceptively ugly. Though sometimes it can hint at injuries below the surface too, all dependent on how it feels. I am no medical professional, just an adept at getting injured and relative first aid. I cringed a bit seeing that big bruise, but laughed heavily seeing the little circular one! I am all too familiar with those! Even shinai leave those behind when they strike meat with a spirited blow, even in full armor slight misses or deflecting off armor and getting grazed like that is likely. Mostly when 2 combatants are going at it with intensity. I'll agree it's all too fun, even when you have a few days after that you're sore and recovering. That's why helmets are such a necessity, and trying for target accuracy on armor locations when striking, but margins for error will always exist. I don't lament much of my pain, it teaches. Like touching a hot stove or doing something foolish and winding up seeing a doc. You tend to learn and do better afterward (hopefully) making those reactions sharper and recognitions of danger heightened. Probably why I have many scars but no broken bones. Best of luck with the rematch, though I do wonder how the "other guy" looked after this exchange?

I was going to bring up how the “other guy” looks myself. Let’s just say he looks like a million dollar a day male model. Tongue

Yeah, it happens to even the best of us on occasion. You walk away thrashed or scoring not even a single clean point, yet they are just pristine and it seemed effortless. But we'll just call that learning their moves and how they fight for next time. If at first you don't succeed, plot revenge...

I like the way you think more and more everyday. -1 for Sith wisdom.

By the way, if anyone cares, I'm not really all that cocerned with my own points but I never wanted Light Side. If any one feels like helping me get back to my natural force alignment, please feel free.

This is what i wake up and read out loud every morning. My points may as well reflect that but it's not a big deal. I'm just glad to be here. Smiley

Mistakes were made, but they shall be corrected... (adding such things into a signature can help though)


Side Note: good tip on ideology for cutting down blades in your other post, rational step to minimize errors while maximizing potential reach.
