Mock spars? - Erthë - 04-02-2016

Can I interest someone in mock spars? They wouldn't be actual spars, more like play-fights to teach/train older foals (particularly Erthë) who isn't yet old enough to actually start sparring. I figure we'd follow the basic structure of a spar but pay no attention to word count or winning/losing, as the focus would be on having fun and letting off some of that excess kiddy energy x3

I'm looking for IC teaching and other foals wanting to liven things up, are you interested?

-shoves d'Arcy forward-

Ru would be interested :3 -offers obnoxious foal sacrifice-


RE: Mock spars? - Erthë - 04-07-2016

@Ru awesome! :D I have a thread open at the Throat, maybe they can meet there and go have fun times after business has been taken care of? :D Like, a thread after the thread?

Dont forget you can do OOC spars :3


RE: Mock spars? - Erthë - 04-07-2016

:O I totally forgot that. but it feels like cheating haha, so maybe not..


RE: Mock spars? - Time - 04-07-2016

it's not cheating because you don't receive any VP from it, but at the same time helps you really understand battle as a whole =]


RE: Mock spars? - Erthë - 04-07-2016

Well I guess I feel I'd be cheating character wise? By taking a point of character growth and then not letting her grow from it... if it's ooc then it hasn't actually happened, right? Which would make it weird, I can't separate ooc character development from ic one.

this got complicated, I hardly know what I mean myself.. >.>

@Erthë -- oh yes! I'll get my girly there, hopefully by the end of today! :F


RE: Mock spars? - Erthë - 04-08-2016

Awesome, I'll look forward to it! ^-^


RE: Mock spars? - Ru - 04-23-2016

@Erthë -- so sorry, this is taking so long for me to reply to. .___. life hit me hard, and unexpectedly. So if I don't post anytime soon, feel free to keep going with your thread! ((I'm still giving it a shot; just hate that I said I would like a week ago >>')

Also remember that if you're actually fighting with them - like if you're trying to kick one another and whatnot, it can still effect the growth/development of your character while they're under 2. That's why we don't have 'foal fighting' as like a sub-board of the battle boards. We've discussed it, but even play fighting can cause injury.

Honestly imo it isn't worth it.


RE: Mock spars? - Ru - 04-23-2016

Yay, I did a thing and posted! :F

Hum, are you still up for mock spars Chan? I won't mind actually doing it IC; the risk of injury makes me cackle for want of making Ru suffer... >D (but they'll be play fighting I gather?). If not, we can do an OOC one, up to you!

Thankyou for clarifying Odd! Will have to keep this in mind.
