you talk and talk and talk, yet you suck and that's partly because you are untrained/generally slow/lack general hand-to-eye-coordination and also partly because your theories and tactics don't work practically.
If this is the attitude you're going to talk to me with, you're welcome on my Ignore list.

you know both and the first is possibly not even your personal fault, but you keep spreading very theory-oriented information (to keep it very diplomatic), also concerning strategies and tactics even though you admitthat you rarely if ever play the game itself.
If you wish to know the truth, the reason I ended up mostly talking about theories or posting calculations was because I couldn't run any game for more than 10 minutes maximum due to unknown errors with my PC. There're several people who could easily enough verify this. Anyways, I got a new PC around May 2006, but by then I had gotten way too accustomed to watching anime or posting on forums. And currently, none of my mates play the game actively.
Actually, it's quite annoying when angry people like yourself will only post that my calculations are "wrong" but refuse to point out where despite me askin them to do it several times. You know, people who actually do those calculations would give me the correct forms without me even asking.

to make it short the reason for me is to show that even if we disregard your motorical handicaps compared to myself, your strategies and tactics will turn out to be ineffective and nostalgic. the game has changed and bvc actually has to be pretty good to stay on the heels of any charclass if played correctly. it requires more than some calculated numbers and being able to leap, zerk and tri/ww. besides being very fast with your mouse and having good connection, you need real experience more than anything else in this game. and this is what you lack and this is why i challenged you.
So which of the two is it? Do you want to prove that I'm wrong? Or do you want to give me the experience required?

the reason for you to take this challenge is to show that you actually know what you are talking about. and since you talked very much about bvcs (how to build them, how to play them) over the last months/year but never proved anything practically and you might want to show that you are actually qualified to give the serious and nitpicking advice that you keep spreading.
Several people, including mcm, morotsjos and xxxkillerxxx have all said that nothing that I say is new. Therefore, I see no reason why it should be me who proves anything. I'm just saying that Mcm or blobs used to say. If anything, I'm posting more calculations that they are, but that's no reason to doubt me, since anyone familiar with basic high school mathematics (read:variables, arithmetic averages, probabilities) could it all.
And by the way, the "way to build a BvC" is purely mathematical. For one, the optimal stats are counted by reduction and addition from all pieces of gear. Same is done with damage and life. As for Leap, I did once count the optimal level of Leap assuming that you want for it to cover the whole screen in every possible skill setup. Also, the recommended numbers for Increased Speed and Natural Resistances are all about having the right skill level or more with all gear setups. And that, too, is purely mathematical, as it starts from the assumption of certain numbers for +FRW% and +RES%, in mcm's case it was stacking LR in his anti-setups.

whatever ... if you refuse to duel again i wont ever ask you again to duel me but every time someone asks you for bvc vs assassin tactics (i think it's useless to talk about other charclasses vs bvc now) you should consequently answer that you actually dont know it youself because the last time you duelled a trapper was against a 65fc cc lvl1 mb campstyle trapper or so.
Hah, that's funny. You know what? Have you ever read the topic I made about publishing my incomplete BvC guide? There I clearly said that I wouldn't probably have any strategies in a long time due to lacking the experience to it. But you know what? Things changed. More and more newcomers started PMing me with questions about match-ups and so forth. Of course, my usual recommendation was to PM mcm or Ed or morotsjos. However, with the banning of mcm and morotsjos in Dii.net, I no more could do any of that. And no one else was willing to do it.
Of course, even nowadays I would point people to go to a guide, specially one made by one of the better BvCs.
I don't know if you're going to take me seriously or not, but I'm still going to say this. If you had asked me to duel in a different context, with different assumptions and requirements, I would've gladly dueled you. But since I know that the only reason you want to duel me is to ridicule me or prove me wrong or unworthy, I don't see any reason to bother.
You know, it's really tiresome to play with some of my pals because they don't value pubs. For them, they might be a waste of time, but for me, it would be fun, maybe it could even get me back to playing the game. I don't see any reason to go to a public game if the only thing I will do is beat everyone once and then prevent them from getting their stuff.
