-Server introduction-
/int/craft is back, the only minecraft server out there made by /int/elligents, for /int/elligents. Changes will be made to tweak the gameplay from previous iterations, while staying true to the classic /int/craft experience. Historic RP, Global, Towny and more will make sure of this. Timeline this time around will be 476 AD, set in a map centered around Europe (including the middle east and north africa).

Changes to our towny setup:
-0 (zero) claims for 1 man towns
-Forced nations (established nations only)
-2 day grace (no forced nation) for newfags making a town, with mods monitoring the legitimacy of non-nationship for these towns
-anti-warlog: territory still claimable after 15 minutes of the last required person for claiming logging, otherwise, no other punishment for warlogging

Who are some twentieth century swordsmen with actual duels or battles under their belt? I know of one or two.
I'm sure there are more examples from around the world, be great if some more people know of examples
Kunii Zenya in 1910 found several men stealing from his farm at night. two had swords with them and attacked him. the first swung at him over head and was cut down by a technique called ichi-no-tachi The second thief tried to smack down a strike to the side of the head, and kunii changed targets and cut across his chest.
In addition he took challenger with wooden weapons throughout his live and reportedly went undefeated.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Churchill
He fought hand to hand with his sword (and got a confirmed kill with his bow as well).
He was like a larper who took it a bit far.
Not sure if the Germans fought back with sword, but Churchill is said to have killed people with his.

Take a look at this list of videos, there are some recordings of actual epee duels from the early 20th century: https://www.youtube.com/user/schlager7/videos

I heard that such videos existed but I had never been able to find them.

Germans were relatively polite
Everybody listened to the BBC broadcast behind closed curtains
Nobody really knew what happened
Policemen were taken to camps, so great grandfather, who was a volunteer fireman, got enlisted as policeman. Grandma still has his lead-center-leather-covered baton.
When they were liberated, US soldiers gave the children gum and chocolate.

How could 60s counter culture even start when America had just saved the world, given rights to blacks, and had gone through the 50s, the pinnacle decade of Western civilisation?
Does this show that people desire something to complain about?

The average person reveals their stupidity and fear when they criticize modern art as being "meaningless" or a "trick." They fear the unknown, that's obvious, but also, it's a total lack of vernacular and ability to understand anything about what you're seeing. If I told you pic related is one of the finest paintings of the 20th century, what would you say? You have no ability to understand what you're seeing on any real level unless you're an art major. But, take a subject like astrophysics, and even if you don't really understand it even on a simple level, it seems like you can. You think about the physics you did in high school, thing bounces into thing, imparts energy, other thing moves. You can think of astrophysics as like that on a larger scale, even if that isn't true it feels true and it feels like you can get a grasp on what astrophysics is. You know terms like inertia, mass, orbit, etc. You have a little vernacular. But modern art is so strange that even if you know a little about color, hue, and weight in compositions, its still so bizarre to you that you recoil reflexively and declare that it must be a joke. There can't be anything you don't know, can't be anything that you could never even come close to understanding. The thought terrifies you. For example, this painting makes me think about how we think of mental space. In my memory of this painting it was airy, the edges of the square were not defined, and when I see it now it makes me confront my preconceived ideas of mental space and of the metaphysical, this painting is giving form to the metaphysical. It's giving form to something we can never see. It's a beautiful paradox. What do you see?

Generous donations from ashamed oppressors who wanted their money to contribute to a just world of beautiful workers, obviously.

I don't remember where I heard it, but I once saw someone claim that it was to get back at the Whites who defaulted on a number of their debts.

That's actually kind of an interesting question.
Well obviously the guillotine was never used in practice in America, but the transition from hangings to electrocutions is something I'd like to know more about.
If I had to hazard a guess I'd say it's because public executions were beginning to be seen as...uncouth or distasteful. Electrocutions could be done in a small private areas housed within the prison itself and it also had the upside of not mutilating the body so that it could be returned to a family for burial.

> Electrocutions could be done in a small private areas housed within the prison itself
well a guillotine doesnt need that much space either and people hang themselves inside all the time...
> upside of not mutilating the body
sure? always thought it would leave some burns on the body
>>
>>1104908
Just because the electric chair is a newer form of execution than hanging doesn't make it more humane. The electric chair was used as a propaganda piece by the proponents of direct current to show the danger of alternating current. Electrocution can be easily botched and there's no reason to believe that even a properly conducted electrocution is less painful than long drop hanging.
There are witnesses to the execution by members of the public and the media, so it's not really that private.

Hospitallers purely due to them surviving into the modern era as a Catholic order.

Teutons. They killed dirty Slavs.

Templars were the most powerful and got shit done for the Crusade. They only have one notable screw up. When their commander in the holy lands pressed for an immediate attack. Instead of resting the men, getting more water and supplies, and getting better intel on the Sarcens armies.
French King and the Pope screwed them and the Crusades over some debts and threat to papal power.
