DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
This chair, this throne seems to fit me. Seems to cradle me. Almost as if I have sat
here before, for years. It comforts me, warms me. Like I am being held safely and
snuggled into the warm bosom of an old friend. It soothes my scars, silences the
pain.
The throne fits me.
The title fits me.
Kinda like a good ole pair of....Sneakers!
SPY REPORT
Welcome XOCHITHLAN. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights
have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Biff! Pow!
XOCHITHLAN watched with glee as UNDERGROUND LAB 17 got knocked off top spot by DUCKS
UNLIMITED! What's with SILKIE? She actually beat THE MIDDLE WAY's APPLE CORE, and
walked away with 10 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at DUCKS UNLIMITED
while they watched LORD LOVE A DUCK clobber CHASING BUNNIES. She lost 4 points and
got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. I'm sure XOCHITHLAN is excited
about CRYING, the new Duelmaster from BASH BROS BABY. (remember?) But when you've
seen as many as I have... Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on?
I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. XOCHITHLAN thinks BASH BROS
BABY and their 350-273-17 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up...
Management must be dealin', as the boys at TROLLHEIM ain't reelin'! BASH BROS BABY's
mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, BEERSHEBA
CHANG! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. Keep challenging up
26 points, DUCK SOUP, and I won't have to write about you much longer. BEERSHEBA
CHANG always accepts those kind of challenges... DUCK SOUP did pretty good last week
in beating BEERSHEBA CHANG to get 19 points. Why did BEERSHEBA CHANG lose, you ask?
Simple: she wasn't good enough.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You
young rapscallions, take note!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. Are you
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and
good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
