I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, TROLLS' 6th moved them up to 2-3-0 place. THE ARSENAL showed ALJAFIR what they were made of as they fought with a vengeance to walk off with 4-1-0. What's with ANOTHER WINNER? He actually beat ALJAFIR's THE USEROUS MERCHANT, and walked away with 14 more points from the fight. Major screwup at WHEN EAGLES DARE. CASTLE KEEP lost 8 points to YOU'RE NOT GOOD. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe CASTLE KEEP will provide more easy wins... NEON SCRAPPERS' hatred of PERRY STRIKE FORCE surfaced again as MR PYTHON challenged ALJAFIR's top dog. MR PYTHON was reminded on the sands why THE PLATYPUS is Duelmaster. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough! No matter the time or place, men will always duel. The most avoided team was NEON SCRAPPERS. The bums at THE SHOWOFFS couldn't face the challenges from NEON SCRAPPERS! No excuse for that! What do people see in BLIMEY? His 5-9-0? TROLLS ain't talkin', but he's got 24 points. I hate going to the effort of writing about the kind of fights that NOGGIN gets in. He fights people like YOU JUST LOST, 13 points below. I thought NOGGIN showed great skill and promise when he defeated YOU JUST LOST. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters to walk away, or not? Is it my imagination, or are fighters getting younger every day? To die so young, so gloriously! Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. 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. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck.
