WINDS OF WAR turned their 2-1-0 turn into a 2nd place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see TURKEY win a fight and gain 16 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, JAZZ beat PETRO STICK and PETRO STICK lost 8 points. You're breakin' my heart. Due to absence, and inability to defend the throne, BOOMING BARITONE has lost the Title of Duelmaster. Start setting that alarm earlier! And it's out with the old, in with the new, as SUZE takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this? You want to know what's new, don't you, LYRATILAN? 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. PHOENIX GUARD 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 WINDS OF WAR. Ha ha ha ha! WASHINGTON VERN was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. I notice BYRON challenging down 19 points to fight MOCKINGBIRD, WINDS OF WAR doubtless has some rotten excuse for such an insult to honor. Question now is, will LYRATILAN accept this sort of tacky behavior? BYRON beating MOCKINGBIRD. The insult, the....yech! And we have SUZE in a TV challenge, going down 10 points for the fight. Guess what? I thought SUZE showed great skill and promise when she subdued WASHINGTON VERN. 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. And now a passing thought on a warrior dying young (IPA of LIBATIONS 2): You had your chance and now you're dead. Oh well... Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one. I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SUZE 6669 9 2 0 115 LIBATIONS 2 (592) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BOOMING BARITONE 6687 10 1 0 122 HELL'S CHOIR (594) DORI KAAB 6650 15 16 2 109 WORKING GIRLS (193) JAZZ 4650 17 17 0 104 WORKING GIRLS (193) SOUTHWARK 6656 13 3 0 102 WRATHMEN 24-1 (590) WASHINGTON VERN 6397 21 33 0 96 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PETRO STICK 6682 12 14 1 81 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) GHOST SHARK 6678 9 3 0 72 NEON GRATITUDE (593) BIG BLUE MARBLE 1702 6 4 0 70 FIGHT THE POWER (184) WARREN 6603 8 6 0 68 WINDS OF WAR (583) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BYRON 6674 15 5 0 63 WINDS OF WAR (583) -MON MOTHMA 6642 11 6 0 63 LOST ALDERAAN (587) -MADELINE 6691 8 4 0 57 WINDS OF WAR (583) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PAUL STOCK 6680 7 20 0 53 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) -OG CRUSH 6700 5 3 0 51 LITTLE LEO CRUSH (595) -APOLLYON 5492 12 6 0 46 DARK FORCES (179) MOCKINGBIRD 6743 3 4 0 44 PHOENIX GUARD (598) SUSAN MURPHY 6704 7 9 1 43 WORKING GIRLS (193) DANKE 6732 5 4 0 35 NEON GRATITUDE (593) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -PALE HORSE 6746 3 2 1 35 DARK FORCES (179) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME AETHER FLOW 6675 5 7 1 33 NEON GRATITUDE (593) HEN 6742 6 3 0 31 PHOENIX GUARD (598) PEDIALYTE 6668 7 4 0 25 LIBATIONS 2 (592) GYPSY ROSE 6730 5 5 0 24 WORKING GIRLS (193) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BUBONIC PLAGUE 6761 3 0 0 23 DARK FORCES (179) TURKEY 6780 2 0 0 21 PHOENIX GUARD (598) VULTURE 6781 2 0 0 20 PHOENIX GUARD (598) ARIOCH 6770 1 0 0 15 MELNIBONE (600) STORMBRINGER 6771 1 0 0 13 MELNIBONE (600) -NARO TULL 6715 0 2 0 13 LOST ALDERAAN (587) DOH DOH 6763 1 2 0 11 PHOENIX GUARD (598) NATALIE 6760 1 1 0 11 WINDS OF WAR (583) -SHU KALLA 6751 0 1 0 11 LOST ALDERAAN (587) -TEJ 6707 0 1 0 7 LIBATIONS 2 (592) DZIEKUJE 6779 0 2 0 2 NEON GRATITUDE (593) PRINCE GAYNOR 6769 0 1 0 1 MELNIBONE (600) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
