~1908 Melee
This Melee is unusual in that not only did a non-Rithmatist compete but he was also part of the winning team. It exploited a loophole in the rules which states that only students of Rithmatic professors are permitted to participate, Joel Saxon served as a research assistant to Professor Fitch and so counted as a student. He joined Melody Muns at her position in the center of the arena. Joel drew the defense, a nine-point circle, which Melody then traced, giving the lines their Rithmatic properties. Melody drew the chalklings using her skill in the area. They also used the newly discovered Line of Revocation to great effect, Joel would draw the line and wait until the ideal moment to have Melody trace the line. Despite the considerable odds against them, they won the match quite decisively.Cite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content
