Glove Slap by Bex., The Villain

August 10th, 2007 3:34 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Challenge another player to a duel.

[please note, per the task's creator: there must be a duel - document, no less]

117.jpeg

Dear Bex,

I bear you no ill will. I appreciate your praxis incredibly. But fate has pitched us against each other over the conquest of the definition of advertising. My deepest regrets, but there must be a duel.

Because of the great physical distance between our two fair cities, I propose to compete over the completion of a task. The winner shall be whoever can complete the task most elegantly, as determined by the votes of our SF0 comrades.

I leave the selection of the task to you, as well as the time frame in which you would prefer to work within.

Your reluctant enemy,
Dax



Bex:

We will duel with the task "Spread SFØ." We will narrowly interpret this, in the spirit of our original disagreement, as "Advertise SFØ" and we will impliment it as befitting members of the University of Aesthematics. We will have one month and half (hey school's started, we need more time, eh?) to complete this task. We may not publish before or later than the date of [edit] October the 18th...

Interesting twist

The Hero... The Villain... sounds like another archetype to the story is missing...

feet don't fail me now...
posted by YellowBear on August 10th, 2007 7:48 PM

YES!!! I can't wait! FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT!! For pride and honor!!! Put that dastardly mustachioed man in his place Bex!! After the way he mercylessly chased me on the Journey to the End of the Night (nearly into a heart attack!) I want you to run him all up and down the praxis without mercy!

Mwa ha ha ha.

A missing archetype? What are you thinking, Vixen - care to join in? Do I get to tie you to a railroad track or something while I twirl my moustache?

To have been befoed over such a tright comment is shere mockery.
If I had not already been glove slapped and in return slapped back I would challenge you to a duel right now to defend my honor!

You better watch yourself or you might just get challenged to an Ultimate Gonzo Cage-Free Super Slam Dada Match!

The Villain only has foes, you should consider it a compliment. You are in good company

Of course the lot of us are his foes

He's a villain after all.

May I suggest as inspiration...

Damn, that is intense -- those doodlers get vicious! Just thinking about a transatlantic doodle competition has me shaking in my boots.

Thanks for the votes, Bex...

I see that you are researching all my Praxis before deciding on a task to settle this Duel -- clever!

And take your time. I will take advantage of your dilly-dally to plot world destruction.

Oh snap.

Okay Villian...

Okay Villian, I have returned from my vacation and can begin this duel in earnest. I have chosen our weapon.
We will duel with the task "Spread SFØ." We will narrowly interpret this, in the spirit of our original disagreement, as "Advertise SFØ" and we will impliment it as befitting members of the University of Aesthematics. We will have one month and half (hey school's started, we need more time, eh?) to complete this task. We may not publish before or later than the date of September the 15th...
Is it agreed?

"Weather" Strikes San Francisco +1
posted by The Villain on October 14th, 2007 1:05 PM

Duel Status Bulletin:

Due to unfortunate weather in San Francisco, as well as that the two of us can no longer find eachother in the sea of Villains that have sprung up over the weekend, this Duel has been postponed.

Mind you, Herø, that the Chicagø weather has nary slowed me down. I am ready whenever you are. Prepare for your demise.

Vote now!

The tasks are up, you decide the fate of Herøism and Villainy on sfØ!

posted by Bex. on October 25th, 2007 12:01 PM

Dear Villain,
Thank you for dueling me. Without you setting the bar so high, I could never have pushed myself to achieve such a level of tasking. Though Herøism wins this time, It is true that without a Villain, there could never be a Herø. With our forces combined we have improved SFØ within and spread SfØ to the world without in a huge way. I could not have custom ordered a better nemesis. It has been an honor. I hope we may continue to battle together or in opposition to uplift our beloved SFØ.
Your Best Foe Forever,
Bex

Dear Bex,

It has been a pleasure and an honor to duel you over this anti-capitalist Advertisement. This has been an adventure of indescribable reward. Your heart is truly with SFØ.

You are, by far, my most capable foe.
