DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Better late than never. I am still unsure how my compadre Alan Jackson reached the
title of Duelmaster before me. It was a good battle last turn with Snooks Eaglin for
the title -- country versus blues. Y'all had to figure that country might win out.
Had a little more endurance than Snooks thought, although I had the wrong strategy
planned for Snooks as I was fixin' to rope that no good killer Aether Flow. Luckily,
as the song goes, "you've got to have an ace in the hole," and things still worked
out. Snooks is not the only good warrior in Lyratilan -- there are several good
warriors, particularly at the top.
I cannot figure out why my bloodfeud challenge against Aether Flow did not go through
last turn. We don't take too kindly to folks killin our teammates, even if they are
only average warriors. In fact, none of Gone Country's challenges went through last
turn. Maybe our Manager's handwriting was a bit lacking. Aether Flow, I am giving
you a shot at the title this turn to help ensure my bloodfeud challenge goes through.
You have more experience, but I think that I can get the jump on you. All I can say
to Aether Flow, or anyone else I end up fighting, is, "I'll be lookin' for eight when
they pull that gate, and I hope that judge ain't blind..."

SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for LYRATILAN. MVP award for PAUL STOCK? THE
MIDDLE WAY 4's proud of him after beating SUSAN MURPHY and getting 18 points. Talk
about yer major upsets! DANKE's match with JADE cost her a loss of 13 points! The
Duelmaster isn't going to stop just cause he's Number One! AETHER FLOW knows this.
He was Bloodfeuded by the Duelmaster. Don't you think the Duelmaster is being
unfair? I think GEORGE STRAIT should let AETHER FLOW be Duelmaster for a while,
without fighting about it. Who was the wiseguy that said LYRATILAN's Duelmaster was
paying for drinks at The Piper's Rest? Don't look at me!
Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right? The warriors of WORKING GIRLS must
be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that
I don't? I don't know what GONE COUNTRY's been doing. They certainly haven't been
accepting many fights from WORKING GIRLS, that's fer sher. People were asking me did
GARTH BROOKS REALLY challenge FULL PROOF? (all right, maybe they didn't, but it
sounded good!) It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but FULL PROOF wants me to
write about it since it won victory over GARTH BROOKS. Satisfied?
Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All LYRATILAN ever talks about is fighting!
Me, I'm more laid back. Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (GEORGE STRAIT vs.
AETHER FLOW, that is.) Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do?
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits. Remember
you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Jade -- I am not sure why you and everyone else in Lyratilan all keep challenging me.
Really, I am not that bad. You gave up so quick -- I thought you would want to have a
drink with me after the fight -- after all, "it's five o'clock somewhere." -- Alan
Jackson
Long John Hunter -- Another country versus blues battle, and country won out. I got
lucky with the style match-up. -- Clint Black
Diamond -- Well, you got me. You must not like my fighting style or my cowboy charm.
Kind of reminds me of a line from one of my songs: "Cause she's over buckles. She's
over spurs. To her you're just a heartache in a pearl snap shirt. Been lassoed and
let go for the last time. No, she ain't over me. She's over me and my kind." -- Cody
Johnson
Arenamaster -- I guess that you are "Calling Baton Rouge" for more stand-ins after
Fratsfan Noble died -- in less that a minute. -- Garth Brooks
Fratsfan Nobles are a dime a dozen! Never fear, "I've got friends in low
places..." -- NAIEI
