Well, the time is upon us again, so it is time for the predictions.
Who will be the new DM since Angus is leaving for ADM?
Will Le Pentarque be able to hold onto the top team spot?
Will Elephant and Tripwire fight one another this turn?
It looks like with Angus and Flor graduating that Recognition Leader and Popularity Leader will be up for grabs too. |

I'm hoping for the title.
I have at least one challenge in for the title. Also, should our current title holder win I have the top two pointed challengers who could slip onto the title by points if they can win. So Gron or the Baron have hopes. Of course, being at the top leaves them precious few options for challenges.
Then again, Gron was top point holder last turn when an outgoing duelmaster won and left the title vacant and he was passed over on points.
Most popular will be open? Hmmm...someone with a lot of experience. I do have that.
Then there is that top team spot... |

I believe I challenged Baron w Flor this last turn. I felt a nice PL vs PL fight would be a great way to end her basic career.

Since I suspect Flor is probably better than the Baron I don't think I want to see that matchup. But who knows, he has surprised me before.
Also, if anyone wanted to PM me spoilers tomorrow (Friday)if they get them I'd be happy to receive. If not, I'll end up waiting until late, late Sunday to see results. I'd take Sunset spoilers as well if anyone has those. |

I predict I'll get a double 21 replacement this turn.

Rec Leader, Baron Stonewall, Pop Leader Import-Export.
Well see if any of my predictions come true. The only one I really care about coming true is the first one. |

After a string of pitiful turns, I managed to pull a 4-1-1 turn. The kill sucks, as it was with a new mediocre scum, and against a manager with lots of high FE guys, so I'll have to DA him to soak up one loss instead of four.
Well, time to fill out strats for the upcoming tourney. Good times!

By the way, it is the fourth striker I lose here... its getting funny  Did some witch cast a spell on my offensives ? |

2-3 and some strangeness. Only 1 challenge went through for my team, but it wasn't (I'm checking to confirm) a challenge that I posted, it was from the previous turn.
Sorry about the DC DeGotti! I understand any desire to return the favor though despite the reasons behind it. |

3-2 here with a DA. Only one challenge(BF) went through and I lost. Challenged a certain warrior multiple times but for some reason my challenges didn't go through (go figure).
Grats to our new Duelmaster, Gron Da Caveman.
Two new teams this turn. Welcome Orcae Ita and Unholy Knights. New team Goonswarm is putting on a nice showing at 7-2-1. We are at 28 teams and counting. Can we bust 40? Anyone out there remember the most teams we've had at any given time?
No new grads. |

I pretty much figured it was because I got challenged by others and your guys did as well. |

Got my turns back; my first 0-5 that I can remember, but that will actually be changed to 0-4 (which doesn't sound much better). After sending in the RU for Rat in the Hat, I emailed over a stat/strat/style change that RSI confirmed they received, but it never got implemented. At least now I know I made the right decision for the change up.
Kudos to Dagrdraug for punching out The Mad Ratter with a series of 13 blows after TMR broke both of Dag's weapons. I guess that extra 22 FE paid off and my desp strat didn't.

Average turn 2-3 with 3 DA's.
Borne continues to show improvement. He might actually make it too ADM before the end of the year.
One workable replacement, one maybe if he gets lucky and one POS.
Grats to Da Caveman. |
