The second Q-staff fight is finally up.

It was interesting indeed as the randomiser gave me the outline where Erbrand first evades beautifully, then performs in a great manner only to be denied by Stigend's evasion and followed by a total beating by Stigend against Erbrand. The first thing concerning Harreld vs. Garstan came up on slot 10.!

But then the randomiser went on making Garstan champion over Harreld and there I stopped. We need to see the Erbrand vs. Thornden fight! So I deviated from the randomiser and made Erbrand & Harreld win in the end.

Without throwing a dice I now suggest that Erbrand and Harreld should meet Eodwine & Thornden in the semifinal. There is too much risk in making E & H meet Dan & Crabannan and losing - and I wouldn't like to stray from the randomiser again and I really think Erbrand and Thornden need to go for it, whatever way it turns out.

I mean if you randomise something and then decide you don't like the outcome you then make it again... and how if you don't like that either? Try the third time? Or the fourth? So what's the status of randomness anymore?

So Foley and Groin, give me both your thoughts on how your characters would react to hearing the news that they will be set against each other in the fight and how do you see the relative strenghts of them?

And lmp as well, if you think Eodwine or Harreld would like to block the possibility of those two fighting each other by insisting on fighting the other of them, let me hear it.

Or whatever you think yourt characters would think about the situation...
