In a rare, first-person post, our own 10th Planet Administrator tells about his battle with Avant Guard:
Two months ago, I logged into the mat, expecting a friendly bout to test out my skills. I hadn’t prepared myself for the consequences of what happened in the beginning of the match. Although the sparring started amicably, I accidentally kicked Avant Guard right in the config file. I thought this would just stop the match and we’d re-install after some injury time, but the blog came back swinging furiously. After trying everything I could think of to evade its erratic responses, it jumped guard and entangled me in a mission control like I’d never seen before. I entrenched and tried to think my way out of this precarious position, but for the next two months, it could not zombie and I could not posture, as we faced a bitter standstill. Although I’m reluctant to admit it, I finally beat Avant Guard this morning by muscling out and re-posting everything in a brute-force maneuver, which ended with this post – a meta-submission.
