This is a place for advocates/practitioners of the concept known as dueling (old west dueling, sword dueling, etc. doesn't matter what variant so as long as it's a kind allowed by the law) and perhaps its mainstream revival.
Rules:
- Everything must relate to dueling in some way.
- The law, and instances of the law being broken, may exist as mere topics, but we won't allow any efforts of people to actually break the law.
- If someone wants to issue a challenge, all the terms and conditions must be explained in the challenge and subsequent discussion. No unspoken rules.
- If someone challenges someone else to a duel and the other person accepts, the terms and conditions must be honored by both sides, and calling off the duel would require consent from both sides. If they aren't, it qualifies as an instant ban.
- Declining a duel might come with some considerable detriments on a democratic level, but the need to accept a duel is not set in stone.
- You can only duel, in the

The Place For Dueling @lemm.ee Call me Lenny/Leni @lemm.ee If people are so certain of the allegations they have seen once they think the person making the claims has given a smoking gun case, how about a fun little bet (and yes, betting is a form of dueling)
i.e. If anyone has heard of the allegations against me and is convinced of them even without both perspectives, they can make a bet with me.
Conditions of such a bet: The people who think I am guilty of what I am accused of will give me a week to negate at least 50% of the claims which I am known to say are false. If I lose, I must donate $1521 dollars to someone in medical need and show it before continuing to make money for myself. If I win, those who agree to the bet must do the same thing.
Anyone up for this?

The Place For Dueling @lemm.ee CraigOhMyEggoAlt @lemmy.wtf Someone has been causing me trouble, and I challenge them to a duel
First off, as for why I'm doing this on an alt, long story short, the community glitched and became invisible in ML, and I spent maybe a few hours trying to find an instance where I can get to the point without the application process.
I am as my name suggests and I guess I'll be the first person here to challenge a duel. In a world where they can prevent acts of terror, in a world where they can serve as piecemeal war without much tragedy, in a world where it serves as a substitute for something which would amount to escalation and for faulty due process (cough cough kangaroo karm
