Never fear, Olaf Modeen adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Bein' on top is great while it lasts, PANDORA'S BOX. But how many friends do you have now? Hmmmph! I always thought DEEP SHADOW was an over-rated team and they proved it with a 1-1-0! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, OXY MORONS' 2nd moved them up to 2-3-0 place. Some people say I ramble too much, I don't say anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble. Well DREAMS WORK moved up 3, to 5th. What's with SQUISH THE GERBIL? He actually beat DIRTY DOZENS' REESIE, and walked away with 26 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at FLOWERS OF EVIL while they watched APHELION VOID clobber FLOODS. It lost 10 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. Apparently ZENSU isn't filled with as many gutless wonders as I thought. The Dreaded Duelmaster got 4 challenges this turn! See how the Duelmaster Dark Arena Challenged DARK ARENA's STONE GOLEM? That sort of initiative is how it got where it is now. The crowds were amazed this turn, as STONE GOLEM killed the Duelmaster, NEW RIFF, leaving 227 BOURBON ST. in mourning. Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting! Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... ZENSU thinks OXY MORONS and their 69-81-2 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up... The bums at DEEP SHADOW couldn't face the challenges from OXY MORONS! No excuse for that! CHERUB OF JUSTICE of DIRTY DOZENS knows how to pick 'em. He challenged HUMPTY DUMPTY of DREAMS WORK who is up by 19. Now was this a wise move? CHERUB OF JUSTICE perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he lost to HUMPTY DUMPTY and ended up with 6 recognition points. There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty. Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? Are you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FRENCHIE 3155 16 8 0 120 DIRTY DOZENS (333) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SQUISH THE GERBIL 3778 15 5 0 120 CRUEL PET NAMES (381) APHELION VOID 5085 9 4 1 106 FLOWERS OF EVIL (514) BOB 5296 13 6 1 104 DREAMS WORK (538) REESIE 4227 16 6 0 96 DIRTY DOZENS (333) DAN'S GHOST 5196 20 25 1 94 BEYOND THE PALE (337) NEERLY STENN 5273 14 14 1 91 BEYOND THE PALE (337) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FLOODS 5263 17 5 0 89 PANDORA'S BOX (522) SLEEPY JOE 5294 15 17 1 82 OXY MORONS (537) GRANDPA JACK 5311 10 3 1 74 DIRTY DOZENS (333) HUMP THE CAMEL 3903 8 8 0 74 CRUEL PET NAMES (381) MILITANT PACIFIST 5290 14 16 0 72 OXY MORONS (537) DOS JONES 5272 14 14 0 69 BEYOND THE PALE (337) -DELUGE 5332 6 1 0 68 PANDORA'S BOX (522) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THE HEDGE 5316 8 4 0 60 THE SHIRE (321) GLORIA 5298 10 9 2 59 DREAMS WORK (538) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME DISEASE 5327 5 3 0 49 PANDORA'S BOX (522) MY FIRST THREE 2478 7 7 1 47 MOON UNIT MUTANTS (277) LAME NINJA 5254 11 6 0 46 DEEP SHADOW (507) KEN 5297 7 12 0 45 DREAMS WORK (538) OUATE LE PHOQUE 3902 8 7 0 44 CRUEL PET NAMES (381) -DARKNESS 5330 7 0 0 43 PANDORA'S BOX (522) -SANCHO PROUDFOOT 5255 9 9 0 42 THE SHIRE (321) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME EXPRESS MAIL 5323 7 7 0 41 OXY MORONS (537) BASHFOOL 2568 4 3 1 37 MOON UNIT MUTANTS (277) ROSIE COTTON 5328 4 4 1 36 THE SHIRE (321) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HUMPTY DUMPTY 5331 3 3 0 32 DREAMS WORK (538) SWEET SORROW 5335 5 4 1 31 OXY MORONS (537) FROST BLADE 5277 4 5 0 30 DEEP SHADOW (507) -MCNERDJOY 5352 3 0 0 30 THIS MODERN WORLD 27 (542) SQUASH THE SNAKE 4002 4 1 0 29 CRUEL PET NAMES (381) -THE SPAWN 5361 2 1 0 27 CRAZED HELLIONS (543) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BELLADONNA TOOK 5313 5 8 0 23 THE SHIRE (321) BOBO BOFFINS 5326 5 5 0 20 THE SHIRE (321) SCARY 2544 1 2 0 19 MOON UNIT MUTANTS (277) TOUCH SOMEONE 2546 2 3 0 15 MOON UNIT MUTANTS (277) WANDA 5376 1 0 0 13 DIRTY DOZENS (333) MOOR PALE 5373 1 1 0 7 BEYOND THE PALE (337) CHERUB OF JUSTICE 5349 1 3 0 6 DIRTY DOZENS (333) HONEST SALESMAN 5362 1 1 0 4 OXY MORONS (537) FLUSH THE GOLDFISH 4165 0 1 0 1 CRUEL PET NAMES (381) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
