Speaking of round 3, any word on what's going on with the other semifinal match? Been nearly 2 weeks since the last post

I sent Omac a message about that yesterday. Her third 72 hour extension expired last night, not sure if she got a fourth since I haven't heard back yet.

So I guess this is a ditto to the message above me.

Mystress was given two extensions. At that point, the other judges and I had given her until Sunday. Normally, she would not have been given this long, but we felt the circumstances she explained were important enough to warrant a longer wait. Sadly, unless she gets it in within the next two hours (or less, making it Sunday) she will be disqualified and we will have to move on.

I'm trying to keep everyone as informed as can be, but I'm having my own connection issues right now. That should be resolved soon. Either way, you'll have your definite answer by midnight. That's as long of a deadline we can have, even in specific circumstances.

Hey everyone. First, I want to apologize for going MIA. As I had previously mentioned to Omac, I was dealing with some major health issues. No corona (I know some of you were wondering that at the least), but annoying, painful, and miserable regardless. I've dealt with my health issues now, but there have been other issues in my life that have popped up over the last week as well. As such, I am in no position to continue the fight, and I will graciously accept the disqualification.

I have absolutely loved playing Marcos, even more so than playing the vampire Vee a few years back. I loved having to research things for every post and learning more about Muay Thai and MMA, as well as the katars, which I had never even heard of before this. I loved seeing how my writing has grown and how I feed off my opponent's writing. My two favorite moments in this entire rumble was Marcos' internal struggle in my fight against Koti and the mind game that Holey and I found ourselves in.

Omac mentioned in a PM the potential for an unofficial rematch at some point in the future. If you are up for it, I would love to go against you again, Holey, either with these characters or different ones.

As for who will win this, I am completely torn between Red and Holey. If I absolutely had to choose someone, I would chose Holey. Best of luck!

Glad to know your health has improved! Was looking forward to an interesting match, but I suppose we can always do that unofficial rematch once everything is better settled, right? Without any pressing time constraints, this time! Probably best to wait until after the gold match, but since you and Omac seem to like the idea, we can do it at some point!

Heh you seem to have a lot of faith in my abilities... though Red has already beaten me once. I'll just have to do a better job in the rematch! I'm more used to writing knightly types, but not used to writing female characters... so we'll see how it goes!
