Welcome to the THUNDERDOME.

This may be the simplest challenge you'll face.  It is John vs. Bekir.

The rules are simple, you are to post "Claims Victory" 5 times in a row in separate posts, in this thread without being interrupted by your opponent posting "Claims Victory"

The first person to do so (post 5 in a row), wins the duel and is advances to the final where they will face Crypt.

However, because I'm not an assole, and don't want to keep you here for an hour.
After 30 minutes, I'll announce (---30 MINUTES HAS PAST, IT TAKES 4 IN A ROW TO WIN---)
15 minutes after that, I'll announce (---45 MINUTES HAS PAST, IT TAKES 3 IN A ROW TO WIN---)

Planned for 6 EST tomorrow, but I presume it'll be moved.
