He let her leave his embrace as he felt as if it was the right thing to do. Seeing the inside of her home was impressive, and he really was just lost for words. “Well I would love to shower, but I need a bit of help... I'm still a bit bruised from Naku and I can't really wash my back all that much... So would you help me out Karisa?” He asked in a serious tone before stepping inside wondering what would happen next, would they shower or maybe she would say no and they would just walk to the room together.

HANG ON!
THERE'S A PROBLEM...

Karisa Faust

On closer inspection of this thread; there is very little if anything to do with the Fractal Arena. Now we all know that for the duration of the tournament, we've handed out a bonus in the form of posts in the Act III related threads offering 50 bits instead of 20. Frankly however; there is just not enough in this thread that justifies this generosity.

When we set up this bonus, the intention was for interaction with both the tournament and it's participants, even for those who were not able to sign up or those who were kicked out of the roster early. Perhaps by spectating one of the matches, or talking with one of participants? But here; it's hard to tell if not impossible to find anything pertaining to this.

Given the fact you two have flooded this thread 76 posts each and with the intention to use a scarab; we can see your intention and it by definition is a valid strategy, even at the Fractal Arena. However, with there just not being enough relating to the tournament, it not even appearing to be at the arena; it gives the impression that you are merely attempting to abuse the bonus bit function of this event with a thread that has little to no correlation to it.

We as a site try to be generous, but this feels like us giving an inch and you two taking a mile. As such, I am afraid there are some ramifications that do need to be set up. As of now, all the bonus bits you two earned (2280 to be exact) are forfeit; additionally use of your Sapphire Scarabs will be forbidden this thread. More than generous as we could have ended up invalidating all the bits earned here. It's not a fun verdict, but it is a necessary one.

Please understand this and if you plan to continue this thread, we ask you  try and salvage it and make it actually relate to the event at hand.
