I would probably avoid the Kano names unless you're going DA with them, they probably won't get by the censors anyway. Maybe something about the 5 levels of customer satisfaction if you could work that in somehow...
Got my envelope, not happy with the learns/trains but I'll certainly take the 3-2.
My favorite was Kano chiding Mannequin for daring to challenge his scum with a CLEARLY overmatched and lower FE guy! Take a look at the bottom of last turn's newsletter, dude.
You have to give that scum credit, though. I wish somebody would kill at least one of them off, I'm sure Mannequin tried, better luck next time. I've been waiting for another matchup with his lunger on Blakskul, but can't challenge down to him now.

Chocolate Therapy hit Metaru Hei at least 10 times...the problem is CT only does normal damage. Chunky Monkey has the same problem. I do have the means to solve that problem now with the Max Damage potions...what to do, what to do???

I received a set of Duel II roll-up rules and a free roll-up with all of my late turns today. You don't suppose Kano sent it to me so I can follow the guidelines to designing a successful warrior, do you?

That is actually a brilliant taunt! I remember in the old days, some people used to send condolence cards/art whenever they killed a warrior as kind of a taunt. This one actually would have been great!
"Here's one of my leftover roll-up sheets and a copy of the rules! Maybe if you knew to design better warriors, they wouldn't be killed, loser!"

The Midnight Foundation of old most certainly sent out death notices when they killed one of your warriors .... Good times!!

I know it is probably just a coincidence getting the rule book but the whole thing is funny as hell. Now Mannequin, I hope you learn something and remember "armor saves lives"

If that was in fact him.... I'd have to say that was a brilliant move. That's 100% something that was done in the ways of the early days of this game before this intraweb thing.
And as for this last turn for my Deviates.... a 4-1 turn after last turn's 1-4. My team can't make up their mind if they want to win or lose.....

I haven't had time to read the boards here for awhile (that will change soon) and it seems I have missed some things.
I love the free setup and rules. Doubt it is middle school enough for Kano though.
I did name a warrior "Kano Worthy" a little while ago - sent it straight to the Dark Arena. Kinda liked that idea.
Since Ben asked, Padoka was: 12-14-11-17(+1)-17(+1)-4-11 Lunger. Not the biggest loss ever as a burner, but still as roll-up that could have done ok in the arena. But I should actually thank Kano - the replacement was better. And now, of course, he will sit out for at least 4 turns for the BF. Oh well. I'd taunt him about it, but I really don't want to write anything else to him.
The rest of the turn was ok, except that Walli needs more than two avoids.

Is the column that inflammatory or what?? At least it'll be something to read besides my rantings at Kano's rantings...

Yeah I think they left him out of the movie, for some reason...

_Buri_- that was a very weird fight
Yeah it was, and that was my doing. I rolled the dice and sent him in using responsiveness, hoping you were using Decise. Apparently a wrong guess (you weren't, were you?) with disastrous results. Oh well, he was a basic-only warrior anyway, The Hunter: 21-5-15-17-7-12-7 ST, tremendous damage. I still have his twin in another arena, who rolled up better.
