DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ugh. I need to get AI to start writing some of these columns. Three DM columns in
three arenas today. Ah, the price of sweet success!
Not sure how much longer Neon is going to stay active here. With a couple teammates
sitting idle for tourney participation, trying to recruit a newb to replace
Shatterskull, there's only a couple of us left to fight, and Megaloman is struggling
to find his footing. I guess the main reason to stick around would be to lay some
additional beats on that annoying Lenpros team. But even that may not be enough
incentive. We'll see how the winds blow.
In the meantime, good try, Billy Joe! You had your shot, but just couldn't close the
deal. Is Max next up?
And, lastly, a hearty welcome to Bobby Bigfoot! It's nice to have some new blood in
the arena, and he's off to a good start. We'll have to see what can be done about
that.
Until next time, may the gods guide your blows straight and true!
-- Elenda, your Duelmistress
SPY REPORT
Hail IAYE! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your
deeds. The CLOWDER W/ CLAWS guild has had a 4-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in
the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, MIKE
fought BILLY JOE and gained 26 points and contributed to THE YOUNG ONES' 2-2-1. RED
EARS has lost to =^.^=, falling 10 points, while helping make RED DOG GANG a 0-2-0
turn. And all eyes were on GOOD CIMMERIAN this turn as it ascended to the throne of
Duelmaster. IAYE has a new victor! By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw
last night, cramped under the table at The Rat Nest?
Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.'
Inscrutable, but true. NEON KNIGHTS 30 has cause to stand tall, as they were IAYE's
most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And guess who
avoided NEON KNIGHTS 30 stable the most? Believe it or not, it was LENPROS. Anyone
surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that RULE OF THUMB from HARD KNOCKS was
IAYE's most challenged warrior this turn.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. LENPROS has lost BILLY JOE to the arena in the sky, but they don't seem to
be worried. What do you expect from 11-12-2? We'd like to remind certain teams not
to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in IAYE, but never good to wear out my welcome. Look
for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond
the Scribe
