It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in ZENSU. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! It looks like the guys(?) at DREAMS WORK had a good week as they went 3-1-0 to put them in 3rd place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for EERIE BEEF, who flew up 22 points in the rankings after mashing KEN like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was NEERLY STENN, who dropped 16 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with SWEET SORROW. It's a proud day for the DREAMS WORK stable, as their warrior, GLORIA, ascended the Duelmaster's throne. 4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming at that location. But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle! Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad AQUARIAN TAROT? Big bad AQUARIAN TAROT. Big bad AQUARIAN TAROT. ZENSU's afraid of the big bad AQUARIAN TAROT. Tra la la la la! For those of you who like math, try this one: AQUARIAN TAROT + Weapons That go Boom = PANDORA'S BOX + Avoid City. Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, NEERLY STENN would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win. Well, it looks like DELUGE wasn't happy with last turn's rank, so it went for broke by challenging up 31 points. No guts, no glory. I heard DELUGE laughed all the way to the inn as its new point total of 96 was posted in the arena. I guess beating SLEEPY JOE really pays! Getting lots of flowers from sympathetic fans was BROCCOLI BRIDE, who was successfully challenged by DARKNESS who had a mere 18 points more than BROCCOLI BRIDE. Definition of petty: DARKNESS bested BROCCOLI BRIDE, a mismatch of 18 points. Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster. Well, there's the manager of the ZENSU giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks.
