     Well, what are you looking at, RIZTAB?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, NEON TERMINUS, since 
PHOENIXGUARD 1015243 took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Now 
keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for SWEET MAGIC, 
whose 0-1-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 8th.  Ha!  Of course, we're all terribly 
impressed to see MONSOON win a fight and gain 21 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, MONSOON 
beat EXFINITUS and EXFINITUS lost 9 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  And it's out 
with the old, in with the new, as LEPERCHAUN takes the Title and last week's bar tab 
from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how 
else do you think some of these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  MORE was challenged more times this turn than the 
Duelmaster.  Now was the DM insulted or feared?  Heh, heh.  And we have DEAD END in a 
challenge, going down 11 points for the fight.  Guess what?  I thought DEAD END 
showed great skill and promise when he defeated MORE.  All right, so I slept through 
it!  Big deal!   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  PHOENIXGUARD 1015243 has cause to pause 
today, as HMMM was sent to the Dark Arena, and came back--though not in the best of 
moods, I'll wager.  We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate 
catches up with you sooner that later?   
     There's got to be a better place in RIZTAB to get a drink than The Warty Toad!  
Any suggestions?  Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  
Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide 
Clemens

Rosseau, if it weren't for the unreliable weapons masters here in Riztab, I feel that 
fight would have turned out very differently. Let's see how the next round goes. --
