THE WHOVIANS after a sorry 0-5-0 might want to consider abandoning the sands and taking up singing the 'Can't fight no more' blues! What's a move up by 7 you ask? (alright, maybe you didn't ask) Cause for celebration, according to BEN'S BAZAAR. NOMADIC TRIBE posted a nice gain, to come in 8th. Everybody loves a winner... REAL BEER had cause to celebrate, after BREAK OUT got 18 points by beating AZALEA. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, EUSTACE BAGGE was winsome, after beating FLYING DUTCHMAN and seeing him lose 14 points. You could cut the tension with a scimitar as FLASH of THE ALLIANCE met the Duelmaster. In SUNSET, nothing is permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, FLASH. Word has it one team in SUNSET is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works. A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Perhaps the warriors of BIG LAKE TERROR should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of NOMADIC TRIBE, so did that sorry team shy from BIG LAKE TERROR Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, BLAK BOX is the most challenged warrior. My love of complete Spyreports dictates that I note the mismatched fight, BLAK BOX and DARK PILGRIM. Are GRIM FANDANGO unwilling to engage in a fair fight? I thought BLAK BOX showed great skill and promise when he beat DARK PILGRIM. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! Do not think spyreporting in SUNSET is the highlight of my life. Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat! Do not despair! I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FLASH 9980 13 8 0 111 THE ALLIANCE (723) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -CHEMICAL WEDDING 4904 13 7 0 109 MATRIX OF ETERNITY (437) STERLING SAVANT 9951 16 11 1 108 NOMADIC TRIBE (160) UNCHAINABLE 9929 23 15 0 106 BEN'S BAZAAR (577) -JASON OF ARGOS 9761 13 9 0 102 TEAM ARGONAUTS (714) -SORCERESS MEDEA 9762 15 6 0 97 TEAM ARGONAUTS (714) PHLEM 9938 16 17 0 93 THE OOZE ZONE (169) BRIER BLACKMOON 9960 15 11 1 93 NOMADIC TRIBE (160) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BANZAI-RAT 4237 14 18 0 85 RAT PAK (388) LITTLE FLOAB 9924 10 6 0 85 LEGEND KILLERS (722) HOLY GRAIL ALE 8616 10 5 0 83 REAL BEER (424) RHUKK 9925 13 11 0 74 LEGEND KILLERS (722) DUSKBORNE BEAST 10041 10 5 0 71 NOMADIC TRIBE (160) LEFTY MCGRIM 9985 14 15 1 68 GRIM FANDANGO (454) BUCK FIDEN 10033 5 0 0 68 WRATHMEN 24-68 (726) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WALLY-GATOR 9999 10 13 2 66 PHILTHBALLS (554) BUSHWHACK 10028 10 7 0 66 NOMADIC TRIBE (160) -MIGHTY HERACLES 9765 8 8 0 66 TEAM ARGONAUTS (714) EUSTACE BAGGE 10036 4 4 0 59 LEGEND KILLERS (722) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BLUE MOON 9149 5 7 0 54 REAL BEER (424) -NEVERKNOT 10097 5 3 1 50 GRIM FANDANGO (454) LASZLO 9919 9 9 0 49 THE WHOVIANS (691) MOON SPLICER 10059 7 5 1 49 NOMADIC TRIBE (160) NARDOLE 9905 11 9 0 48 THE WHOVIANS (691) DARK SPLIT 10095 7 2 0 43 BIG LAKE TERROR (654) HAARLEM 10027 8 7 1 42 THE ALLIANCE (723) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MIGHTY MOUSE 10085 4 5 0 41 THE ALLIANCE (723) DARK WISHES 10042 10 7 0 40 BIG LAKE TERROR (654) FLYING DUTCHMAN 10080 5 2 0 37 SEA SHANTIES (718) GREASE MONKEY 10083 4 6 0 34 THE OOZE ZONE (169) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BLAK BOX 10108 4 3 0 33 GRIM FANDANGO (454) CALLI MARI 10089 5 4 0 29 THE OOZE ZONE (169) AQUILEIA 10117 3 1 0 29 THE ALLIANCE (723) OGRYN 10093 4 4 1 28 BEN'S BAZAAR (577) DAVROS 9997 4 3 0 28 THE WHOVIANS (691) BREAK OUT 9852 2 0 0 28 REAL BEER (424) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME INFIDELITY 10094 3 6 0 21 PHILTHBALLS (554) KOOTHRAPALLI 10133 2 0 0 21 PHILTHBALLS (554) SCARY HARRY 10050 2 8 0 21 SEA SHANTIES (718) WASTING TIME 10077 4 7 1 20 PHILTHBALLS (554) BLUSTER 10102 2 3 0 20 SEA SHANTIES (718) MAN IN BLACK 10113 2 3 1 18 BEN'S BAZAAR (577) TP GOD 10099 2 0 0 18 LEGEND KILLERS (722) JUDOON 10125 1 2 0 17 THE WHOVIANS (691) SQUID SOUP 10131 1 0 0 16 THE OOZE ZONE (169) AZALEA 10111 3 2 0 15 THE ALLIANCE (723) DARK VISIT 10122 2 2 0 15 BIG LAKE TERROR (654) CRETURE 10112 2 3 2 12 BEN'S BAZAAR (577) TENEBRAS LUX 10128 1 1 0 10 GRIM FANDANGO (454) KIWI SMUGGLER 10101 2 3 0 9 SEA SHANTIES (718) DARK PILGRIM 10123 2 2 0 8 BIG LAKE TERROR (654) MICHELOB ULTRA 10126 1 0 0 5 REAL BEER (424) JACK SPARROW 10110 1 2 0 5 SEA SHANTIES (718) -CHIKARA-RAT 10118 1 1 0 4 RAT PAK (388) KILLED 10119 1 1 0 4 LEGEND KILLERS (722) LAST SHADOW 10129 0 2 0 2 GRIM FANDANGO (454) FYNN GERHEM 10142 0 1 0 1 PHILTHBALLS (554) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
