I figured it would be best to post in here rather than the 30mm thread.
Gentlemen, you can't just go all the way to the finals and then not have a match. This must be fought. I don't want to get into this, that, or any kind of argument. I just want to see this happen.
Because of the lack of time and budding animosity, I suggest you both agree on a time slot for two weeks from now and make that your next interaction
. If one or both of you is/are rusty, you have a few weeks to fit in some time to practice. If one or both of you is/are a little aggravated, you have a little time to cool off. You can both approach the match sharp and without distraction.
Many people have signed up for this, and dueling has gotten some "good" attention on the boards (finally!) If the two finalists don't wind up fighting, that will change.
This is a good community event. Let's keep it that way.
