They then say "no I wasn't!" and it's your word against theirs. That's outright childish, and not something the ref should have to deal with. They are busy enough as it is not to deal with whiny bastards arguing over the spirit of the rules.
I can hit separate locations at six strikes per second, after seeing how to do so from Warren (Dantarian) playing in the Bath home system. It's a fantastic looking way of fighting, but it's still twice as fast as I'm allowed to swing and get away with.
Drawing a cross and a fully roleplayed blow would drop me down to two strikes per second which, while well inside the safe zone for speed of strikes, leaves me even more open to being moshed when the monster turns round. Runawaaaay.....
Consider what would happen if you and I were to fight at three strikes per second max, then if Rhinyn and Meldir were to do so. The first fight would be fairly close and the second would have Meldir walking all ovr Rhinyn like he wasn't there.
