KW Forum WKC meetup!

[KhawMengLee]

Just to get a number...who else from Kendo World Forum is going to Glascow? I know Tonin, James n' Mingshi will be there.


Look for the bloke with the Yomiuri Giants baseball cap...

[Antonin]

Yep, 'll be there as well.
Look for the tall bald guy with a moustache. WEll, that's not me: that's James. But he knows me. I'll be the incredibly handsome and elegant Frenchman. You can't miss it.
A.

[Danny Boy]

If you see a guy going into computer-rage at the judical terminals during WKC, thats me ;).

[chidokan]

I'll be there saturday, iaido training friday saturday sunday and a bit of kendo with some friends at a local dojo. More emphasis on iaido though as we don't get to see each other very often and we both need the practise/criticism...not very often you get to tell a sixth dan he's losing his touch!!:D :D
Are we going to challenge all the teams to a match? - Kendo world squad takes them ALL on at once! ( and naturally wins with our amazing skill and technique):rolleyes:

I'm the big guy with moustache and I'll be mostly wearing...an England footie shirt! That should wind the locals up....
oh and I'll be seeing my mate Trevor from kendo world.


Tim Hamilton

[Goomba]

I'll be there with two friends for the 4th and the 5th as a spectator. Will there be any keiko during that time that I can attend (in all my 0 kyu glory) or at least watch?

Does that mean I should pack my bogu?

[Nico]

Antonin will not be the only french i ll be there too !!! Working



I'll be the incredibly handsome and elegant Frenchman

Same for me !!!!!

See yu on the 2nd ....

Nico

[PhilMcLaughlin]

Danny Boy - you havent even SEEN the software yet !

Ill be the one looking worried about people like Danny Boy (and I only volunteered to tie ribbons on people ;-)

As far as I can work out there isnt any WKC keiko for spectators but Taiseidokai have a club night thursday (not sure if this is happening though - guys ?)

However some of us are meeting up for a bash - Tim do you remember how to tie your men on still ?

Im looking forward to meeting people ive seen on my travels in the US, RSA and Singapore & HK

See you all in Glasgow soon !

[Danny Boy]

Phil,

We're going to have our normal practises Tuesday the 1st (will be joined by the Yanks, Kiwis and hopefully the Poles) and the Thursday, as usual.
Should be fun. :)

Chidokan...you didnt even put it on and its working already ;) hehe.

Going to post the training times again :

tuesday 20:00 to 21:30
thursday 19:30 to 21:00 both at Kelvin Hall Sports Centre (or as they call it, Kelvin Hall International Sports Arena �E

Cya all there,
Dan

[chidokan]

doesnt the grill bit go on the back of your head, Phil?:confused:
wait til you see my posh new do....a bronze base colour with mother of pearl, 80 piece bamboo, 1mm stitch on deerskin.. Class or what! You will be so dazzled by it I'll knock you half way around the room before you realize you've been conned again...:D
BTW I ran an iaido class at Kelvin and seem to remember the floor was pretty solid... hope they've changed it or there'll be a lot of bad ankles a la Kendo World injury bulletins...
Can we not 'take over' the hall after the matches are finished for some (allegedly) friendly bouts? Boo hiss spoilsports etc!!!

Phil, hope you wrote the software better than you hit men...or I'll end up worlds champion and not even have to have a match...:D

Tim Hamilton

[nollaig]

ME
Irish will be there as well!!

Who will be turning up for the Kekio on Tuesday?
Noel Whelan(IRL)

[Danny Boy]

Noel,
Is Yanai-sensei comming with you guys ?

[PhilMcLaughlin]

Tim

Im disappointed - Id thought you were all style and no substance & now you've let me down on the style ;-)

you'd best puit scratch coat on that fancy new Do of yours - youre going to need it !

And NO I DIDNT WRITE THE SOFTWARE !

However I will have admin access to the results database & I am a man of few scruples, so cash offers considered - after all its your best chance of winning anything (mine as well come to think of it) ;-)

I made a point of trying to avoid computers at all but didnt quite run fast enough so now ive got to dress posh as well, sigh....

see you guys soon

cheers

[Nishi]

I'll be there friday and saturday. I want to attend good will keiko friday night, but im not sure if its open to the audience (general public)?????? :(

[chidokan]

Hmmm... Phil dressed posh...does that mean you'll wash your wellies down???:spchless: :D
After reading the rules on the points I hope you'll be bringing a backup calculator...sounds a nightmare, in fact reads as bad as the BKA rule book ( herewiths and whereas the third party etc..):D :D :D

Tim Hamilton

Neil's forgot all about this, just reminded him its on...so he's off to book the hall now...and I thought MY memory was bad..:rolleyes:

BTW... have a REAL shaolin monk as a student, I will have to introduce you to some of his training methods. You'll especially like the elbow press ups...:evil:

[KATSUJIN]

i will be there as a participant....look for the indian guy from Singapore....see u all there!!! :D

[Nishi]

So is the goodwill keiko open to the general public/audience, or just helpers?

[KhawMengLee]

yup, open to everyone...come on down:D

[PhilMcLaughlin]

[Tenken]

hey, this is moocow65 and tenken LIVE from glasgow at the moat house hotel. what can i say, we're both dead tired from jet lag and walking 5 hours to kelvin hall. we just ate dinner, but we didn't eat with the team cause we were asleep and nothing was gonna wake us up. we miss our pals, especially mr kurururu, inouye, honda, mr ikuiku, TBF, the Hongs, and everyone else from the SCI. the exchange rate here sucks. it's less than half. tenken just traded 500 dollars and he got back 3 pounds. so we're not too sure what to do about omiage. i guess we'll just steal the towels from the hotel and there you go. so expect a towel from scotland mr kurukuru. so now i'll pass it over to tenken. we still got about 5 min and 30 seconds left on this computer before it shuts down. laters.

[Tenken]

oh and almost forgot, we still haven't meet our good friends from this fourm yet. but stay tooned. planning on meeting them tomorrow at the practice. laters

[moocow65]

oh, i just wanted to clear something up. the first tenken that was posted was supposed to be me. i don't know why tenken's named showed up. i guess glasgow internet is just weird like that. well, i also wanted to up my posts. we're still on the lookout for nessy and groundskeeper willie. hopefully we'll see them before we leave.

[samurai999]

Yo Tenken/Moocow! Good Luck! Tell Arnold, Mike, Shannon and Kaori that Tim from Palo Alto said good luck as well if you see them.. Hopefully they'll know who I am. :D

Tim

[Hongsermeier]

Great to hear from you guys. Good luck and keep us informed. :cross_eye

[moocow65]

this message if for mr. kurukuru and for tenken's brother. i was looking in the booklet for the world championships and guess who's name it was? i'll give you a hint "Duh, let's all be wandering samurai HAR HAR HAR" ok if you still don't know, then how about this? "DUR, I though everyone got water" yeah you jackass since when do they have Aquafina at the B&G center in JAPAN?!?!?!?!? hahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahah man, i wish i could see the looks on your faces right now. haven't met up with john travolta or anyone else yet. well except for shinzato and takahashi occhan. be back soon.

[M.K. Kawai]

Greetings Tenken and Moocow from Lahaina! :cool:

If you see Wes Fujimoto from the Hawaii team over there, tell him I said 'Hi' and good luck. :)

Wish I were there but I'm helping out with an O-Bon festival here in Lahaina. I'll send a prayer up for you guys to 'kick butt' over there. :bandit:

Wish you guys the best of luck and no hitting the Pubs before the Tourney!!!! :angry: lol :rolleyes:

Good Luck guys and keep all your SCI buddies up to date.

MKK

[Inouye02]

500 dollars for 3 pounds ? i think it should of been more like 300 pounds you're suppose to get back ...

[moocow65]

ugh.. we just ate breakfast. i ate too many beans. two bowfulls to be exact. now we're just waiting until practice. oh yeah samurai99999999, i told kaori and shannon you said what's up. not much going on right now. just resting up a little bit. but yeah, the wandering samurai is on the team. i think the canadian team is staying at another place, so i won't be able to see mako until the shiai. oh yeah...arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr a?!?!?!?!?!?
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahha. i guess that's it for now. i will update you guys later. oh yeah.. it costs me a freaking £ (pound) to go on the internet. oh well.. it's worth it. catch you guys later.

[Tenken]

hey everbody, tenken here. just want to tell mr. kurukuru to tell this to my brother. "tell mom that i can't call because the phone call costs £10,000 or something like that ($20,000) tell her that I'm doing fine, and tell here to call K. Matsumoto for me too." thats it. laterz :)

[KhawMengLee]

Tenken: Get an overseas caller card. Its available at any 7-11/convenience store. And stop being a baby, you guys sound like its your first trip overseas or something.:P

[misterkurukuru]

I think this is thier first trip to europe KML. BUt i am sure they are thankful for the calling card idea.

mister kurukuru-who is this guy???aaaaarrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? what kinda name is that?

fujimoto kun-its the guy right behind you!

misterkurukur-doh!

did you guys ever get to watch the Oyaji dvd? I really want to see the onsen one! tenken, your mom said to eat some food and nots just curl and umeboshi!

[chidokan]

Why do you all want to steal from Hotels? No wonder we have sabotaged the breakfasts....:D
The correct exchange rate for foreign money should be a lot higher, to try and encourage people not to come here;)
I will have to complain to the prime minister that you nearly get $2 to the £....
Have you also noticed that whiskey is more expensive in Scotland than anywhere else in the world as well!!!:confused: Damned taxman at work again... buy it at the duty free on the way out!
See you on saturday....

Tim Hamilton

[moocow65]

3rd - Asahina Shizuka and Okada Kei

Teams
1st - Japan
2nd - Korea
3rd - Canada and Taiwan

[Hai_hai]

sminki,
where did you get this info? Can you list how the US team did?

[misterkurukuru]

Did any of you see tenken's matches? the japan web site said he lost to Ando, but i am not sure if that what round that was in. Just wondering what you thought about his jodan style?

[moocow65]

well, well, well, so much to talk about. well let's see first off with the women. mi-chan lost in the round-robin and then i yelled at her and she was mad at me. but during the team competition she tied the korean girl, a cute one i might add. she got a nice kote on her, and at first they both did ai-men, and we all thought mi-chan hit first.. but oh well. so she was happy. the match of the day was definitely kaori kikunaga. she was MEAN. she did a mean tsuki on the other cute korean girl. she got a kantosho for that. shannon and elizabeth both made top 16 and they got kantosho.
now on to the men. what can i say? i was very very very disappointed in some of the judging. but first off. ando almost lost in the round robin to an australian mate. he got a nice kote on him, but ando came back and got two mens i think. i'll let tenken tell his tale of kendo. chris beat a korean dude and then beat dean.... well you know, and he got top 8. oh yeah. and this italian guy BEAT the japan captain hirao. well, he beat him, but not according to the shinpan. he got two CLEAN mens on hirao, and only one shinpan raised the flag both times. he then lost, but not by a men or kote, but by hansoku. one for some kind of tsubazariai thing and the other for being pushed out. there was plenty of booing from the crowd. and worst of all, he didn't get kantosho. on the bright side, the shiai went very smoothly and very very quickly with the exception of court 3 which took forever. now it's time for the team competition... we'll see how that goes...
p.s. met khawmenglee
p.p.s. saw mingshi, but i didn't talk to her. .
laters.

[Tenken]

this is the tale of the greatest jyodan in the tournament today. I first got out of the round robbin beating very one with 2 points. then i played a dude from gremany. he was pretty ruph with me but I managed to pull though. He hit one clean dou off of me but one problem with it was, he said " kote!!" the next person was a huge jyodan guy. it was the battle of the century. Jyodan VS Jyodan the croud went wild when the shiai started. I eventualy beat him with one men and hiki kote ( which i missed) then finally I played the japan champion Ando. I played him for clase to 4 1/2 mins but he deafeted me with one kote and a hiki men. But one thing I learned from all this fights were that "Japan IS beatable" they are not gods, and almost everyone haas a chance of deafeting them. well, tired now so going to sleep... good night everybody.:o

[M.K. Kawai]

Hey guys,

Thanks for the report. I'll be waiting to hear all the details when you get back. I'll be interested in hearing about the people you met and did not "care" to meet ;)

Take care all! Wish I were there to cheer you all on.

MKK

[samurai999]

Thx for the report from the two-headed Tenken-Moocow monster.

Kaori got a tsuki? Nice!! Man, I'd better not piss off Kaori if I see her at practice. She might give me a bad looking hickey. :D LOL Anyways, congrats to the US women who got Kantosho. Especially my homegirls from Norcal. Great job!!

Ya.. Its interesting that in the Kendo world, the Japanese team is usually thought of as the "Dream Team" sorta analogous to the US team in bball. The best in their respective activity. But, as time goes on, the rest of the world sorta starts to close ground on them. I guess if this was the case, then Miyazaki would be to kendo as MJ was to basketball? Maybe. *shrug*

Tim

[Inouye02]

thanks for the update tenken, moocow, sounds like tenken did very good... hope for some more updates ..

so what does she look like moocow ?

I was ten feet away form the shiai, and i could of swore that Iwasa won that bout???

Kun-Bai Lim was awsome....he was so animated and very passionate. What a great fencer.

[Nishi]

Japan 7 was H.Sato, i had my numbers backwards.

I stand corrected.

[dorkusxmaximus]

how did the rest of the guys on the US team do?

[Neil Gendzwill]

Chris Yang got best 8. Way to go Chris! Oh wait, he beat Dean Ara (Canada) to do it. Boo Chris!

[Inouye02]

so how did Tenken and moocow do ? were they on the team also ?

[samurai999]

On the kendo USA website..

USA mens team got third. GJ guys!!! The usual placing for 1st and 2nd. Other interesting 3rd is Italy. They beat Brazil?

Tim

[chidokan]

some good matches... best one I reckon was the Korean /Japanese ladies team...hard fought and great to watch!

met some old pals I aint seen for years, sorry if I missed anyone...
Phil, saw you but you were 'working' ( ie watching the matches) on the other side...

Tim Hamilton

[sminki]

Close one between Japan and Korean team. Japanese Senpo won with a hiki do point, Korean chuken won with a men point, everyone else ending in hikiwake. Kim Kyung Nam and Eiga faced off in the tie breaker. Eiga winning the tie breaker with a tsuki.

A single point separates #1 and #2...

[moocow65]

moo moo, this is moocow reporting from the moat house hotel. the sayonara party just ended, and now all the sensei and people are partying in the lobby. well, the team matches were awesome. hahahah i finally got to compete after two loooooooooooooooooong days of watching. we almost ranked number one in our pool, but japan did just a little bit better against us on the other teams, so we ranked second. we then went against great britain. it was a good match. i didn't compete. yang d. lost to the first guy. he was good. he got kantosho. a matsuda tied the second. but yang c, yoshimura m, and hosokawa took it home for us. the next match was the long awaited rivalry between the us and canada. yay, i got to compete. yang d, went against taguchi and he scored a men so we were up by one. then it was my turn. i went against kamata and it was a tough match. just like to say that it was no holds barred out there. we were all rough. we ended up tying each other. yang c went against asaoka and he got a men on him so we were now up 2-0. hosokawa tied raymond, so we had the match. yoshimura tied ariga and we finally got third place after 21 years. gotta give props to everyone. they all played their hearts out. so now it was the us against korea. man, it was a good match. yang d, fought hard, i think his name was lee? i'm not sure, well he got a sagari kote on him, and so he lost. then it was the cow's turn. i went against the 10 foot tall kim. i'm guessing he's the younger brother of kyung-nam kim. well anyways, this guy was a stud, but i don't think he ever went against nito before. heheheh. well about 15 seconds into the match, he tsuki-ed me and it got caught and so i used my right arm to get it out of the way and i ended up knocking his shinai down, but they gave me the hansoku instead. sucks cause that threw my whole game off. well, luckily i ended up tying him. so i brought it to yang c. he went against chea, the same guy he went against at santa clara. chea got a kote i think. and just about as time ran out, he got a kote back and so they tied 1-1 again. so it was yoshimura's turn. tough match. he had to go against sang-sub park whom i think is they second best guy. he lost 1-0. hosokawa's last match was against kyung-nam kim. their number one guy. he left everything he had on the court. it was a really tough match and although we lost, i had new-found respect for our us guys. so for tenken, this is moocow saying what's uppers to my buds: mr. kurukuru, inouye2, williamhonda, katsu3, hongsmeier, kawaii, TBF, mr. ikuiku, and all the other SCI guys. as for the sayonara party.................. let's just say that some weird stuff happened. i'll tell you guys about it at Sundays. oooooooooohhhhhhhhhh yeah... i almost forgot. i took pictures with the khaw man, and mingshi, and george mccall. AND the two awesome studs who made all this possible.... ALEX AND THE HAMISH. YES THAT'S RIGHT, I MET THE MODERATOR!!!!! heheh, i thought he was gonna kill me, but he's a great guy, and alex is an awesome kendoka. he's really good. hmm.. i only have a minute left and i don't wanna spend another £ so i can't proofread. just wanna say good luck to uto sensei for her 5-dan examination and i'll see you guys later. damn this post was long. MOO

[sminki]

Thanks for the great update. FYI, the 10 foot Kim (Kim Young Gyu) is no relation to Kim Kyung Nam.

[Inouye02]

congrats to you guys on the U.S team ... I wanna hear all about it when you guys come back ...

[Danny Boy]

Sayonara party was a blast, lots of booze flowing, great guys/gals.
Cant wait for the next one :)
Noel, great whiskey, if i wasnt so pished on the finland vodka, i'd steal more ;).
Mingshi, im waiting for that pm hehe :).
Chidokan, the english-strip wasnt a good idea, had to stop a couple of folks from hurting you :P.
Everyone else who was there, hope you had as good a time as me, and hopefully see you next time :).

[moocow65]

[Neil Gendzwill]

Ando took you out, right? Congratulations on all the success for Team USA. That's a good job getting wins over Daisaku and Suguru, I know that's two guys I've got very little chance against.
That's too bad you didn't get to play Matthew, I'd pay good money to see that much lumber flying around. You ever meet up with him in other taikai?

[Fraz]

Sayonara Party was good fun.. I was the the one with the yellow Kilt..:)
The Canadian's certainly know how to put it away.. I especially enjoyed their street entertainment...:)

[roc_kendo]

oh..man... I wish I were at the party....




Enjoy Kendo!

[sminki]

roc_kendo,

do you happen to be ³ì°Ë a.k.a. rockum?

[misterkurukuru]

atleast all the people at the WKC saw that mr.kurukuru, tenken, moocow, and the rest of the SCI are not the same person!

[Inouye02]

hey kurukuru , i hear mr ikuiku will be showing up at JCI tomorrow night..any chance we might see you and tenken, moocow also ? I just gotta hear the tales of the WKC and of meeting some KWF people too ...

[moocow65]

what's up guys. i won't be practicing at JCI but i'll show up. i got work till about 9:30. i'm still dead tired from the tournament. well, i wouldn't be, but since our flight was delayed 5 hours and i got home at 3 am and went to sleep at 4 am, then had to wake up at 5 am and work at disneyland for 8 hours, then i had to drive home and work 5 hours at my other job, then had to sleep and wake up and work at disneyland again. yeah.. i developed the pictures, so you can see the pictures of khawmenglee and mingshi, and my main man hamish, and my other main man alex. i'll try to see if i can bring a tv or something so we can watch some matches i recorded. dammit, i can't find my picture of me and shinzato!!!!!!! hmm.. maybe it was someone else's camera?? i sure hope so or i'll be pissed. anyways.. i'll probably see you guys at JCI.. i'll get there around 10:30 or so, so don't leave without me. oooooohhhhhhh yeah... one more thing. this message is for mr. kurukuru. tenken and i made A***-KUN IN SCOTLAND!!!

[misterkurukuru]

A*** no kun! i saw the oyaji pics that you took in the hikoki!
