S.W.O.R.D. round 19.wmv

I call this round's trick "bottle rocket" because the bottle has to be cut through in a manner that launches it like a rocket off the stand. by like a rocket, I mean it must not tumble, the cap must lead and stay in the lead so that the bottle flies like a rocket. it also must go a significant distance, no pop-and-drop trips of less than 5 feet. that sucker has to fly!

That makes a good trick but a bad cut. =) ,=(

[Ianflaer]

@RaiAntou that was the whole point. the trick is to do it on purpose and get the desired results. round 18 was a bad cut too, well useless anyway.

[RaiAntou]

@Ianflaer Potentially harmful to the sword. =(

But yeah, a good trick. =)

[Ianflaer]

@RaiAntou I don't think anything done here is particularly stressful to the blade, heck cutting tatami is harder on the sword than this. maybe I missed something that you saw though, what do think is the danger to the sword here?

this shit is getting wacky. we've all probably done that on accident but cool, i guess you're winning now?

[Ianflaer]

@FatGuyWithAKatana only two other guys still in it and they each have one letter more than me so I guess I am, but it is devilishly hard to get a letter on either of them.
