A lot of folks seem to want to test to see how strong Chachan is... I wonder how many challenges he'll get. Sad

Quote:For example, if Flynt "the Hyena" Reddard wants revenge against a certain highlander woman who made a mockery of him last week and he puts up 10,000 gil, but a certain shin-smashing lalafell offers 50,000 to fight Flynt, Koporo the lalafell gets his opponent.

Nice to know Koporo's reputation precedes him.

Cover your shins. Or don't, because they will break, if Kopo has to hit them a thousand times.

Another night, another Grindstone in the books. To start off, the Fight Auction was a rousing success! To the surprise of everyone, Flynt "The Hyena" Reddard was not the most sought-after opponent! The person who drew the most gil for the privilege of fighting was... Romy Leonhardt?! The highlander paladin had a small bidding war that resulted in one-hundred-thousand gil being donated to the Grindstone. All told, we managed to secure 471,000 shiny coins, enough to keep the Grindstone winners walking away with money for nearly ten more weeks.

People were at the Wash early, and as usual before too long the scene was quite crowded!

We also ended up with a pretty large number of folks hanging around to watch. It was nice to see people cheering on their favorites and rooting for the underdogs.

Our final match came down to the unstoppable Romy fighting relative-newcomer-but-proving-his-worth Keiragi Kishi.

In the end, though, the long hours of fighting and waiting ended up being poor Ser Romy's downfall, and Keiragi finally found the means to end the match.

...so you're telling me that the Grindstone on Valentione's Day ended in someone getting penetrated? Alright!

I, uh, accidentally fucked up the Standings tonight, too, so they're inaccurate until I get the urge to go fix them. That's what I get for updating them as I go, then losing track.

As always, thank you for everyone who contributed and attended. You are what makes this event and event!

Girlfriend and I enjoyed watching the fights despite our crap internet disconnecting us every few minutes. Hoping you continue this so we can show up next week.

All that really matters is that Auri got to kick Flynt in the nuts.

All is well in the world.

Double posting because holy shit, I woke up to another donation in my inbox to keep the Grindstone running.

In total, I'm sitting on 1,001,000 gil in prize money. The standard payout is 50k, which means right now there's enough in the kitty to fully fund the Grindstone for the next twenty weeks.

...buncha bloodthirsty lunatics, I tell ya.

SpoilerIn seriousness, thank you so much for all of the support recently. There's been a ton of people showing up, and lots of people hanging out throughout the event. It's encouraging to see so many people taking part in our little weekly get together. As long as people want this to happen, I'll do whatever I can to make it available.

Amelia looks like such a 5ever alone in these screenshots XD.  I had a lot of fun watching and maybe next time I'll think about participating now that I know how it works.  Thanks for doing this event Smile

Kestlona will be there to watch this Sat.  It'll hopefully allow her to make some RP connections as well.  As for John ever attending, I'll probably have him be one of the healers doing the event.

We're always happy to have folks turn up to watch, and we're doubly/triply happy to have some extra healers on hand.
