....mention the electric equipment, it seems to be de riguer at competitions, and poss get rid of the need for the judges (well the comp's I have been to with the 'lecky equipment, never had the judges

Ah - fair point.Somehow it slipped my mind!
Damn stuff beeps a lot tho...
Cheers

Especially if it is in bad repair Tho' I like the big coppery piste to stop the weapons from sounding hits on the floor

Coppery piste eh...? Don't know about that one I'm afraid!
Only started last September (but I do enjoy it a lot, honest) so I tend to miss things occasionally...

It is great fun isn't it I used to do it at uni, and once fit enough I will return The coppery piste is like a big roll up piste. Once unrolled the bout is fought on it - better defined than the usual tape piste. When attached to the rest of the equipment (well I imagine it needs to be atteached) it will stop the 'lectrics going off when the point of the foil hits the ground - so the fence can continue for longer without all the stopping and starting

Sounds pretty cool
The reason I hate the beeps is because during our fencing club's last match (which we lost to Southampton 19-8!) I had to act as scorekeeper which meant that I was the person actually responsible for creating the things!
Never mind, eh?
Oh, how do I credit you as a researcher on the Entry? There doesn't seem to be a help item about it!

My thanks for including me - If you just include a thanks section on the end and put the name in, when it is sub-eded then sub-ed will pick it up. If you GuideML it as a link is even better TVM (again

Thanks for your thanks!
Still, the electric stuff is pretty fundamental in the whole sword-waving thing!
And why haven't I been Greeted yet??

S

I have now greeted you formally Tho' as you have been around it was not the full speil
BCNU - Crescent

Thanks for the greeting. I was beginning to feel a bit left out!!
