Sorry, it's my fault. I missed 81 and sent in a turn and was excited to see the results so they wont pop up.

It finally posted Saturday afternoon.
3-2-1 for the Guild. Decent, but nothing exciting. The kill was Knut Sunderhelm heading to the DA for his final, post-graduation, fight. That isn't something I typically do, but in this case Knut had a shot at being my first ever 4-kill warrior. High Elf pays for the accomplishment.
Knut: 14(+3)-9(+2)-13-15(+2)-21(+1)-9-13(+2)
He was even bonused in attack (+2) and parry (+3)
6 ratings.
He was nothing great, but he shouldn't have been bad. But I could never get him to win consistently. And I had tried his favorites, they just never stood out.
I haven't seen the turn yet, so I still have hope for the replacement.
Hopefully Cazador can pick up a few more PP and follow him out the door quickly.
And hopefully Journeyman can have somehuge learns as he took his first loss to a warrior with 5x the FE. Getting yur butt kicked should be worth something, right?

Hhhhhmmmm. Last turn we went 4-1; this turn we went 2-3, but one of those was a DA and HOPEFULLY we will see something worthwhile as a result.
Most of my challenges didn't go through, but I hope the one that did earns me the skills I anticipated. Been a little skimpy on skills lately, even for the two 21 WT guys. Also notice that the 'random' matches are WAY disproportionate sometimes -- but rarely in my favor. If it WERE to happen more often, but in my favor, I doubt I would point out these unwelcome and unfair discrepancies in experience to anyone.
Good to see more personals in the newsletters. I just skimmed this time, but when I get the hard copy and I sit down to read them in detail (from the peaceful sanctity and relative sterility of my white throne) I know I will enjoy them. I'm even getting the urge to write another spotlight!
It's also VERY nice to see returning managers/teams. Even good ones that hurt my pathetic win/loss avg even more. I thought Doc Legrand was going to submit a spotlight gloating over his team. No doubt he's searching for the proper words to convey his glee at his return. I noticed how quickly his team jumped up and grabbed an arena rating.
One new / returning manager I'm not so sure about. And who's this "...I will kill you all!!" guy? Someone to worry about? Or just laugh at? Or ignore? Perhaps his panties are a few sizes too small? What's going on here? What did I miss?

4-1 for the Mothership. Moved into 3rd place with my eye on the Top Career Team award.
Nice to see Shadowspire sporting 20 active teams ... Now If only I could make myself write a few PA's ...

THE STREAK IS OVER!!!! It was bound to happen sometime. I expected to fall to one of the ABs or Hare Binger. Not some Big Lake Turd. Really it's amazing it went that long -- Stew is not really that good. He's got 21 CN and 21 WL, but is low-skilled for his age. Congrats to Sye on dethroning me!
2-3 otherwise for the Diner.

Weapons breaking has saved "The Stew" in almost every fight we have had. Congrats on the streak, but it has been mostly luck.
