Say something about the Aikidoka below You!

[ejaazi]

Let's do something different & have a little fun!

You have to write anything about the next poster (obviously you don't know who it'll be so you can write anything..) and then the next poster will say true or false.. and then they'll write something else for the next poster.. get it? You can go as many times as you like.

I'll start..

The next person is about to take their Shodan test.

Correct,

The next person had diffulties learning the forward roll.
