DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well the time has come to sing festive songs and joyful refrains... So what am I
doing? Cleaning. Do you have any idea how many hidey holes there are on or around this
"throne"?
Whatever numbers are bigger than tens and possibly more than that!
I found someone's stash of Cheese toes which have an expiration date of Turn 897!
Perhaps more scary is the fact that aside from being a bit stale, they still taste
about the same as you would expect now!
So many old, rusted weapons! Bits of clothing, actual clothing, including some
branded pieces which leave me quite confused. We found an entire box of thongs with
Debbie Tonte's name on the front in kinda small letters. And don't even get me talking
about some of the stuff other Duelmasters have "left". I keep blushing at just the
thought of some of those... items.
And did anyone know that someone installed this thing that is supposed to throw a
dart at someone by pressing a button which has been carved into the throne? The
problem is that someone else then added gold to the throne and thought that spot
around the button would make a good spot for the gold... So now, if you look real
close, you can see something pointy in one spot which will even jiggle a bit if you
shake the throne, but can't be fired...
Jeesh, what a mess. Anyway, someone told me that elves hang lights so any of you
pointy eared types, come to the throne room after this turns' fights and we'll
decorate the throne and the room around it.
Hmm... I wonder if we can get a star on top of the throne...

P.S. No one could find this Ord to put in my hair. Any hints would be appreciated at
this point. I've kind of gotten myself worked up to try this.
P.P.S. I'll share the Cheese Toes!
SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for JHELUM. Too bad, TANKS FOR NOTHIN', but
TRIBAL COUNCIL was just too good to be stopped. The guys at PHILANTHROPISTS2 like
really pulled together to get a 3-1-0 this turn, moving up by 6. One team deserves
special mention 'cause they moved up 5 after going 3-0-0. Keep it up, OF WOLF &
TROLL! MVP award for MULINEAUX? OF WOLF & TROLL's proud of him after beating ARK OF
AFFLICTION and getting 22 points. Talk about yer major upsets! PANZER IV's match
with MIRE OF DOUBT cost it a loss of 15 points! Was that a tear I saw in RAEL's eye,
as he took over Duelmastership? And wasn't TRAINING TANK fit to be tied! Is the
Duelmaster really being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. UTOPIA
RELIGIOSO was the most avoided team. Is a 261-191-3 record really that scary? Is
there some deep dark secret why TANKS FOR NOTHIN''s been avoiding UTOPIA RELIGIOSO so
much? Or is it just that they're too scared? People were asking me did CARRO
LEGGERO REALLY challenge ASHFLAYER? (all right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded
good!) It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but ASHFLAYER wants me to write
about it since he bested CARRO LEGGERO. Satisfied?
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do?
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it
quits. I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte
