these ohitians are going on a crazy sending spree and making us lexingtonians look bad! how can i possibly be proud of my 5.10d TR sends on 2nd go with all this crushing going on?

as a self-entitled climber who deserves much more than i ever plan to give back i would like to request that the good people out there open up a gym in lex for me to train and get stronger! thanks! :)
efil lanrete... i enjoy the sound, but in truth i find this seductively backward idea to be quite frightening

So, I'm not totally sure what that means exactly, or how I became your target for whatever it is you are shooting for, but good luck with it.

not true. when you catch them they are now depressed. glad your game hurt someone elses feelings.

and the point system is so retarded that it doesn't even begin to make you stronger. you can climb 10a over and over and over, and out score about anyone. the scale needs to be exponential to begin to capture the essence of hard climbing.

So Pigsteak are you saying that the difference in level of difficulty between a 5.13a and 5.13b is not equivalent to the difference in level of difficulty between a 5.10a and 5.10b? That's the only reason I can think of for an exponential point system. But if that's the case it means there's a deficiency in the Yosemite Decimal Rating System, right?
