[quote=notdeadyet] Ive been rping for ages, and never knew that there were sophisticated rules to rp combat! From what I understand, ive been practicing "Ol school" rp combat. Where your rules are: -Dont Gm -Dont Auto -Dont Grief Id like to keep up to date on this, so i can continue to be a respectable opponent, and may continue earning my share of victories across the board. I just recently was insulted by someone i fought on another site, for not knowing what T-1 is. I hate when friendly spars turn into grief rants, but he had a point. I DONT HAVE A CLUE WHAT T-1 is, or anything related to it. So anybody wanna trade fist with me and teach me by example with a series of spars? I an gla to make a character sheet to meet any requirements would be entailed. I request only for somebody patient to teach me, because i cant be on every day.[/quote] Well I trust you may have done this many times, but as you remarked in the post above you are not skilled at fighting T1, and that is the problem. You are used to just fighting by some very simple rules, and as you said a scant two months ago you were insulted because you didn’t know T1. Now I am sure in that time you have read the various T1 rules (there are a few variations but all adhere to the same basics premise) and feel you are confident that you can hold your own against 2-4 people. I have been doing this for an extremely long time and even the very best I have ever seen at T1 never wanted to face more than 2 people at once, even two would be a hard thing to manage. Especially if they were highly adept at T1. In my very humble opinion, you should fight a single opponent in a T1 fight so you can learn the ins and outs of the system and learn some of the tricks that are in T1. Get a handle on how prepping powers works, how interrupts can negate some or all of an attack post, how prepped attacks and defense works in contrasting strength of attacks/defense.
