Evil Bob Campaigns

Post HERE if you're interested in a pre-game martial arts tournament. :P

I am quite sure Akodo Cuddles-san would watch, if not participate, in the pressing of bodies so closely.

Wow....

I don't understand your meaning, Shinjo Shu? I merely say that all warriors enjoy the sport of combat, so why wouldn't such a noble warrior as Akodo-san want to watch? Perhaps you mistook my meaning?

Beats me, I don't know how things are done in the Scorpion lands, but I know what you were implying.

I believe Shosuro-san is referencing Cuddles-san's expressed interest in playing a game of man-grab. (http://evilbob.fallenash.com/index.php?topic=349.msg3732#msg3732) ;)

 Oh..... wait, what?   :o

I implied nothing, Shinjo Shu, you inferred. best keep such insults to yourself.

... Will there be divisions between men and women? I don't want men man-handling me.

And this is where I bow out... I have some letters to write.

That's up to you, Mirumoto-san.  Stylistically speaking, it's a martial arts tournament, not a wrestling match.  You may just end up punching each other.  Mechanically speaking, if they can't land a grapple on you, there's no need to worry. :P

I second this concept... though... on second thought...

That might end poorly too...

I may just have to pass on this event... :-X

You're all samurai. I see no difference whether you were born male or female since the moment you took up the sword.

Think of it this way, noble samurai-ko...  If your male opponent is too distracted by your lady parts, your victory is all but assured!

Surely differences exist when armor is unloosed. Wouldn't you agree, Seppun-sama?

Orchid's finishing move in Killer Instinct?  :P

I remember hearing about... several hundred years ago... there being a similar contest that involved many breaches of dignity...

That doesn't sound very good for an honorable woman...

Then let us sit on the sidelines, Kakita Miki. We need not dirty our hands.

No. With or without armor, still samurai. Still lives by the sword. Still dies by the sword.

The squishy is just a bonus.

o.0

Your real motive emerges, Oji-sama.

The Kumite is an honorable tournament of skill in all manner of unarmed combat.  Two brave Yoritomo, Okitsugu and Buntaro, hosted it in 1168.  The event was won by Hida Nichie-sama, a Crab samurai-ko skilled in the art of joint locks.  There should be no need to divide such an event on gender lines, unless you would imply that male samurai, after years of discipline, would be unable to control their hormones in such an environment?  I am unsure what is worse - the implication that all men are honorless dogs, or the hubris required to assume you are an example of beauty that would make a samurai forget his training.

*flips up fan*  Amano-san. My beauty does make Samurai-ko forget their training

Can be easily remediable.

I'll be gentle?

Be careful, Kakita Miki. I have wrestled with Dragon. Their endurance is legendary. Their technique, enlightening.

Always the quiet ones.

What is this treachery? I am not Akodo Cuddles. I am Akodo Heisuke, and it's not man grabbing. It's wrestling. With scented oils and no shirts.

What is your policy on the Tweaking of the Nipples, Cuddles-san?

Invalid unless you rub and pull profusely before.  And it's Akodo-gunso.

My apologies, Cuddles-gunso.  Maybe I'll go easy on you.

I shall decorate my trophy room with your skull.

Oh wait.

Wrong setting.

Thanks!  ;D

Mirumoto-on-Kakita action Mirumoto vs Kakita?

I'm sure our bout would be a thing of beauty. ;)

Seems like nanshoku is rather present in the company :P

... N-nanshoku? *blink*

It's a military company. You take what you can get ;)

Oh my.

o__o *blush*

I googled it. >_> I would have been better not knowing the details.

A contract of brotherhood/sisterhood, spawn not out of sexual desire but out of loyalty, affection and comradeship.

Ooooh, that sounds better than how wikipedia put it.

Actually it's fairly pedo, since it was normally between a young male and his teacher.

... Ewwww... That's not cool.

Heyyyy, this is about registering to rough each other up, not gettin' freakynaughty.

That kind of behavior was quite common in the olden days.  Nanshoku reminds me of Pederasty, especially pertaining to the Greeks.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pederasty_in_ancient_Greece

That's one thing I didn't like about ancient Greece. The BAD TOUCH.

Likewise.

Eh, almost all warrior people of old had it at one point. It is a natural thing. Regrettable from our modern point of view, but quite natural. No need to be embarrassed about it. Of course, given this setting is a fantastic one that idealizes the samurai stories from the point of view of a westerner, I don't think historical accuracy is a worry. Especially on such morally ambiguous things.

It's mostly spawned from the Roman views. Romans despised homosexuality as a Greek vice, and while there were many that practiced (specially in the first class), it was heavely penalized and was short of political suicide. Example, Gaius Marius publicly decorated the soldier that killed his nephew (who was homosexual and had made advances on the soldier), claiming his army would be a Fortress of Virtue and Rectitude.

Cato the Elder also shared this extremism, to the point where he despised anything that was greek. In the campaign against Antiochus the III (and his subsequent crushing victory on Thermopylae) Cato madeno attempts to hide his distaste and hatred for the greeks, destroying Sparta, Corinthia and sacking Athens.

Really? o__o I thought it was only female homosexuality that the Romans hated.

The more you know.

Now that we've gotten that out of our system... Who wants to punch/wrestle some dude(tte)s?

Can I just kickpunch to the face?

The bold text is my thing. This calls for some...

...tough love.

Happiness

Let us lather each other, gracefully, in placation to the gods themselves! May the ritualistic cleansing begin! Then... Man-sects?

Don't make me taze you bro.

Then now, I must blow your mind.

Hahahahah! I literally fell over laughing so hard! It's so painful, but I cannot look away!

Hahaha! Tanuk Tanuk!

Nuts to this!

*absconds the Kumite prize money*

Halt scoundrel.

Corrected it.

Here, this should resolve that! (http://vimeo.com/28501846)

Can't stop... laughing...

@__@ So much manly.

Some of those muscles are actually sorta scary... in a bad way.

How do they move their arms?

I'ma just ignore the side content of this thread....

Wake, though not greatly skilled in hand to hand, would still likely participate in this.

Just a last post regarding the side topic,

THE ORIGIN OF MANLYNESS.

You mention the origin of manliness, but your link is not to a photo of me.  I believe part of your post is in error.

In other news, DEMACIAAAAAAAA!

A FELLOW DEMACIAN?! SPIN TO WIN!!!


(I am more of a Noxus fan though, but Demacia never ceases to amuse me.)

My allegiance lies with Piltover, but they don't have any real melee champs, so I'm stuck with Windamere or Garen (saving up for BROMACIA, though).

I play in the competitive scene, managed to score Platinum thanks to 3v3, Gold in the other 2. Mains are: Lee Sin, Trundle and SWAIN (Yes I love a good griefin' champion that makes you cry)

I main Ezreal, and used to fill support roles with Taric until his "buff" (which I friggin' hate).  Lately, I've just been rockin' the Teemo.  Never got a ranked team together, and I wasn't about to go solo in ELO hell.

Taric now has Rally as an ultimate. I don't know, it's making me smirk that some 'pro' call this "OMG OP" and then if you choose Rally "OMG NOOB"

Well, first the nerf to healing turned me off to playing him, then this latest patch looked promising, aside from the loss of a huge chunk of his non-ult damage. Then I tried it and hated it. The radius on the 'nuke' is laughable and I rather liked stacking mana on my Tear of the Goddess to support his ult forever (plus the heal was awesome).
