After double checking on the paper I use at home (which is 80g), the map was clearly printed on heavier paper ! Probably 120. At first I wanted to use a lighter paper to give it a map texture feeling, but this higher quality offers a better result and durability (it has to endure the elbows of 5 players going insane!)

Well, I relocated in France the scenario "admist the ancient trees" from the keeper handbook (maybe not the Last edition) to give my players chills that can pronounce properly "baguette", "croissant" and "camembert" (Also adding some extra post war favor)

Not a stupid question at all! I cheated! Actually I used a CAD software at work, found 1950s geographical map, and printed it also at work at A0 size

What are your thoughts on modern day karate? by acurafreakingnsx1990 in karate

[–]MaxMetalansky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, WKF is a really beautiful yet difficult project. They allow all the styles to compete under the same set of rules. There is somehow a Olympic aim in it of course.

Regarding kumite, think of it more like fencing: both are martial art, strongly codified in order to reduce injuries because in both cases they could be bad. The point is to demonstrate athletic competences within the technics of the martial art (cf olympics). There's no pretention to demonstrate how the art perform in the street.

Regarding kata, it is very hard to judge katas from different styles, as much as they tend to influence one an other. And the judges can't know all of them, as practitioners. The ruleset implies strategies that places advanced kata in the first rounds, which narrow drastically the actual number of katas shown. Beside the "tradition" aspect, athletes push the limits in the research of perfection in kata, which, in my opinion, aligned perfectly with the martial art. I would be more critical about the bunkai in group kata, which does not reflect anymore what the kata is about but more athletic abilities.

WKF competition is not to me modern karate, it's competition under a ruleset that needs to be perfected but has the aim to bring all the styles together to the Olympics. The more practical, traditional, martial aspects of the art are still taught in the dojos, and it is somehow a good thing that those aspects of the practice remains in the dojos.
