Me, again. The leaky Cauldron. Was sorta easy, really. Maybe the next fight will be more suiting for a Duelmaster clash? Maybe not. Had two unusuals stumble into the bar the other day; was not so sure if they belonged here, but they said they were headed to Diagon Alley, but wanted an ale first. Should I have served them? You know Muggles are not allowed in here. Which one was the Wizard, which was the muggle. Or, were they both purebloods? One was a Smith/Miller descendent; the other was Hagedorn/Genglebach. Hmmmmm. Do you care? -- Leaky Cauldron, DMII SPY REPORT Well, what are you looking at, JHELUM? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. THE REPLACEMENTS turned their 3-2-0 turn into a 5th place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see LUMOS win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, SLAYBLADE beat MIRE OF DOUBT and MIRE OF DOUBT lost 11 points. You're breakin' my heart. And it's out with the old, in with the new, as TANCIK VZ 33 takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. The Welcome Wench, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From JHELUM's trash dumps? My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start talking.' I loved that woman. What's the big D? POTTERY WORLD was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered... grumble... mumble... curse... And it looks like TANKS FOR NOTHIN' avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. PUBSTRIKER was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. I guess I can give a little credit to PILLAR OF CREATION of UTOPIA RELIGIOSO for challenging up by 24 to AGENT ORANGE. PILLAR OF CREATION won to get 85 points of recognition. Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for JHELUM's morgue. More variety. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons? What does the JHELUM arena have in common with the inns? It's just as comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of JHELUM. I feel much better now.
