@Albie you said it best, qes is a very talented at sparring.
@qes at one point I used to be very cocky in my prime in early 2000, after I was in Demigod and Messiah, I was telling people I was the best and challenged everyone online so I could prove it to myself. Back then the player count was much smaller obviously, however this game has always been a social one for me. Without it being social it wouldn't be as popular or come near as far as it has imo. Sparring isn't all Graal is about to the general population. Don't get me wrong, I personally don't really enjoy much else except sparring and social part. But keep in mind, it's okay to have friendly competition. =) (Not trying to preach, js.)
