I'm withdrawing my application.

Apparently I jumped into a shovel with a lowered arm opener.

I don't like playing cheap and if you guys like playing like that then I don't think this org is right for me.

I will delete my application.

I call it a shovel do to the lowered arms.

I was always told that a throw happens in the middle of a game as like in the hampa replay etc.

I just find lowering arms in aikido7 (for lack of a better word) noobish because the only parts you can grab in that mod is the hands so it is really quite hard to counter.


*I am not calling zoro a noob. He is really quite skilled and what not I just found that shovel to be cheap and I didn't like the fact it was used in my testing portion of my app.

That clearly was NOT a shovel..

Plus if you find it hard to play without grabbing the hands/elbows then practice more.

I picked the mod holo. I know how to play it, but how am i supposed to counter if I can't grab any other part of the body and Im already lifted and moving out of the dojo?

What do you call it when you lower arms first frame then?

Hampa's "fyeah" replay ;)

I'm sorry about that. I don't really consider that a shovel, but I understand why you may.

If you guys wanna chat about this, /join #ta (the team aikido IRC). Beyond that, please don't post about this anymore here.

I'll clean this up later. You can be retested and I'll stray from anything that involves lowering my arms ;)

Zoro sorry pal just gonna answer this question first.

Lunie, I call it a move. Good tactic too, if you think the other guy is going straight for a double grab and will try to lift/shovel/throw. Good tactic for making the other guy focus on balancing rather than the fight, giving the lowered arm dude more of an advantage.

I believe you withdrew your application prematurely, but if all it took was one match not going your way to make statements such as down above then I'm rather joyed that things turned out the way they did.

I'll watch the replays later it's 6am here


I over reacted, I am trying to calm my short temper on here and sometimes I do things with out thinking.

I had the pressure of being tested for a great org and losing made me assume that I was going to get rejected the reason I chose to withdraw was actually a lie, I didn't want to get rejected so i withdrew.

Zoro if you want to test me again, then we can but if you choose not to I will understand that as well.
