Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for LIBATIONS 2, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 8th. Ha! Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see PEARL win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, PETRO STICK beat SUSAN MURPHY and SUSAN MURPHY lost 7 points. You're breakin' my heart. Due to absence, and inability to defend the throne, BIG BLUE MARBLE has lost the Title of Duelmaster. Start setting that alarm earlier! And it's out with the old, in with the new, as SUSAN MURPHY 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! He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. LYRATILAN, I am losing what little hope I had in you. GONE COUNTRY the most avoided team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was MELNIBONE. Ha ha ha ha! PAUL STOCK was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. And we have OG CRUSH in a TV challenge, going down 8 points for the fight. Guess what? I thought OG CRUSH showed great skill and promise when he bested PAUL STOCK. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's see if anyone's dead or dying. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons? What does the LYRATILAN arena have in common with the inns? It's just as comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of LYRATILAN. I feel much better now. I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SUSAN MURPHY 6704 12 12 2 79 WORKING GIRLS (193) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BIG BLUE MARBLE 1702 11 4 0 136 FIGHT THE POWER (184) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME OG CRUSH 6700 8 3 0 69 LITTLE LEO CRUSH (595) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -RED BULL 6667 3 1 0 66 LIBATIONS 2 (592) DANKE 6732 9 6 0 59 NEON GRATITUDE (593) YISHANA 6788 6 0 0 58 MELNIBONE (600) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PAUL STOCK 6680 9 26 0 53 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) PEARL 6793 4 0 1 41 WORKING GIRLS (193) STORMBRINGER 6771 4 2 0 41 MELNIBONE (600) GEORGE STRAIT 4888 5 2 1 40 GONE COUNTRY (453) JADE 6791 3 1 0 37 WORKING GIRLS (193) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME AETHER FLOW 6675 7 10 1 32 NEON GRATITUDE (593) ARIOCH 6770 5 3 0 31 MELNIBONE (600) -PEDIALYTE 6668 8 5 0 29 LIBATIONS 2 (592) -TEJ 6707 1 2 0 27 LIBATIONS 2 (592) RANDY TRAVIS 4887 4 4 0 25 GONE COUNTRY (453) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CHANELLE 6796 3 1 0 22 WORKING GIRLS (193) ALAN JACKSON 4886 2 6 0 20 GONE COUNTRY (453) REBA 4885 5 3 1 19 GONE COUNTRY (453) GNATALIE 6768 2 2 0 12 WORKING GIRLS (193) THELEB K'AARNA 6800 1 1 1 8 MELNIBONE (600) -OBAN 6797 0 1 0 1 LIBATIONS 2 (592) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
