                             Notes from the arena champ.

Well, looks like that Spymistress Shrewfina is dancing with the full moon again at the 
moment and not viewing this beautiful island through Rose colored glasses.  Pity, 
that.  A lot of impotent anger in that column.

Speaking of impotent, Dense got his wish and got some skill and class on the throne, 
though, as you might expect from a TEABAG effort, it was much more skill and class 
than he had could imagine.  Or, mind you, bring to bear.

Speaking of bare, I looked at the rest of the newsletter.  The only thing of note was 
that it is a damning statement of this entire class of "gladiators" that Big Lake 
anything has a record above .500.  That said, their 6-8 three-turn record shows that 
ship does appear to be slowly righting itself.

Speaking of rights, this cycle I am taking advantage of my inherent right as 
Duelmaster to take paid time off to prep for the Halloween tourney.

Speaking of tourneys, it is odd that people like Dense chirp all the time about 
tourney babies, actually participate heavily in tourneys but never have any tourney 
success or tourney babies, which brings us back full circle to impotent anger.

                                          -- Air and Mien
                                             Niytyole Duelmaster and Man About Town

                                      SPY REPORT

Being a prisoner on Niytyole Island has certain advantages. I haven't discovered any 
of them yet, but I'm assured they exist. Meanwhile, I remain surrounded by 
bloodthirsty idiots and incompetent jailers. Let's not forget the special gladiators 
whose greatest tactical achievement is remembering which end of the sword goes into 
the enemy. At least the arena provides entertainment. This week, it even provided a 
vacancy at the top.

Air and Mien of Work Revolutions failed to appear and consequently lost the 
Duelmaster's throne. Apparently, the Commission insists that champions actually show 
up to defend their titles. A curious policy, considering how many warriors manage to 
show up without demonstrating any ability to fight. The throne now sits empty, 
awaiting someone with enough recognition and the good sense to live long enough to 
enjoy it. All of this after the Duelmaster gave us a lengthy rant about people being 
angry on this gods-forsaken island. What an astute observation! Next cycle he will 
report on the wetness of water.

Bullroarer Took of Old Hobbits certainly made his intentions known. The little menace 
savagely killed Error of XXX Bandits in a single minute, collecting 34 recognition 
points and climbing to 102. Error leaves us with a 14-11 record and a permanent 
inability to correct his mistakes. AA-BOT1 of Dark Mechanicum also stands at 102 after 
dismantling Cheryry Taleblind. Queen Patience lurks just behind at 99, having survived 
Porto Chubb's five-minute challenge. Porto earned both popularity honors despite 
losing. Apparently, being entertaining is considerably easier than being victorious. I 
know several tavern drunks who could confirm that.

The Demonic Pickles retain the top position in the three-turn standings at 9-6. Dark 
Mechanicum climbed into second with an 8-3 record, while The Wasting Field rose to 
third at 8-7. Fear Fire Foes made a rather noisy entrance, posting a 4-1 debut and 
claiming the top career percentage at 80%. Boldog Balrog leads their newcomers after 
overpowering Snod. Four victories in five fights is respectable, though I generally 
prefer to see whether newcomers survive their second week before declaring them the 
next scourge of the seas.

Misfit Toy Makers, meanwhile, managed an impressive 0-5 disaster. Five warriors 
entered, five lost, and somewhere a manager is contemplating whether drowning his 
entire stable would improve morale. Misfit Toy Makers earned the distinction of being 
the most avoided team. Why? I can't answer all of this arena's mysteries. The Wasting 
Field avoided the most. Apparently, the threat of defective toys has struck terror 
into the hearts of hardened gladiators. Ja Pet Oh was the most challenged warrior, 
though Ammit's effortless victory suggests the attention wasn't entirely flattering.

Ghost of Fear of the Dark challenged ten points downward to fight The Bumble and won. 
How courageous! Perhaps next turn Ghost can challenge a wounded fisherman or an 
especially troublesome crab. Elsewhere, Briarwyn endured nine minutes against Field 
Keepsnames before overpowering the challenger, while Vyrgyl Unmighty edged Dilly in a 
brutal three-minute contest to remain undefeated at 4-0. That last fellow might 
someday earn a name without the word "Unmighty" in it. 

Bullroarer Took's killing of Error was the week's only death of a regular arena 
warrior. Joe Marvelous also successfully bloodfeuded Catgut Scraper, avenging 
Roundhouse Ronn, though the defeated warrior survived the encounter. McNugget of MC 
Gladiator Pit met Wurm Kin in the Dark Arena and became considerably less appetizing. 
Lady Tera also dispatched a Persistent Beggar, but neither death is likely to inspire 
songs among the tavern crowd.

Two warriors, Bloddy Belle and Saltibile Sam, graduated to Advanced Duelmasters. I 
shall spare them my usual commentary. Escaping Niytyole Island deserves a measure of 
congratulations, whatever form that escape takes. Thus concludes another delightful 
week on this miserable rock. Niytyole continues to produce precisely the sort of 
lunacy one expects from an island where violence passes for civilization.

Crambus -- Within all the areas we both fight in, I swear, the AA is killing our own. 
A conspiracy, I think. -- Chad

Sirens Thong -- That Siren is not a song, it's a wailing fart and the smell is the 
same as your breath. -- Chad
P.S. Bloody Belle? Is that a reference about Aunt Flow who stops by once a month?

Bashur -- No way! Two turns in a row and I am top team? See that, Bashur, speed 
doesn't just kill, it wins! I did hear at the Dew Drop Inn, your tab is due for your 
Diet Pepsis and Obsidian Hall is no longer covering the bill. -- Chad

Siren's Wail -- They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Thank you 
for recycling my PA from Shadowspire. -- Den

Bashturd -- That's two turns in a row, I didn't know you were yellow.  If a real man 
moves into your stable, let him run your team. -- Den

Filthy -- The arena will welcome your return when possible. -- Den

Kodiak -- You are the only team with double-digit losses in the 3-Turn, that makes me 
laugh, and laugh a lot. -- Den

Mummers -- The arena is just not the same without you crying about something. Surely 
there must be something that you can whine and cry about? -- Den

Grand Whiz -- Why are you resting AA-Bot?  Is he tired of getting his butt whooped?  I 
owe you a death, and I think killing your highest ranked pud is exactly the right kind 
of vengeance.  Prepare you smelly-sock wearing, yellow-toothed, ignorance freak. -- 
Den

Commission -- Funny, my gladiator name does not match the name on my birth 
certificate.  Someone is getting a little too picky. -- Den

Chad -- Congratulations on a very fine 3-Turn, they say that winners, win. More good 
times ahead. -- Den
