So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. And let's see, DESTINY fought HAYDAN and gained 11 points and contributed to SWEORDMASTERS' 1-0-0. THIRD CHARMER has lost to BLACK DEVIN, falling 4 points, while helping make HOMICIDAL MANIACS a 3-2-0 turn. Our last turn's Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to M. CHARDINEE, and JEJUNE has made the way for a new Duelmaster! With JEJUNE clearing the throne, LAB EXPERIMENTS of THINREDONE takes a proud seat as MORDANT's new Duelmaster, by virtue of recognition points. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at Conan's Place? Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' Inscrutable, but true. The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace. Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. 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. Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare to fight bravely. Always good to rest in MORDANT, but never good to wear out my welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in MORDANT again, farewell-- Alarond the Scribe DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THINREDONE 5751 16 5 0 103 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GOOEYDUCK 7434 11 2 0 94 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) -AEGLOS 7468 9 2 1 91 SWEORDMASTERS (138) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JEJUNE 7386 16 2 4 85 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) -SWALLOWTAIL 7387 13 9 0 75 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME DESTINY 7506 8 7 1 66 SWEORDMASTERS (138) NUMBER TWO 7422 7 21 0 65 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) OUTLAW INLAW 7424 8 19 0 58 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) HAYDAN 7356 9 29 1 57 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -CRAP CAT 7524 3 0 0 51 ARENA FELINES (559) BRICK WALL 7478 14 6 0 48 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -HARDWOOD 7513 3 2 1 26 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) -SKEWER 7515 2 0 0 25 SWEORDMASTERS (138) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THIRD CHARMER 7595 3 1 0 23 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) -SWEETSPOT 7510 1 6 1 23 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) -HELLION 7542 3 1 1 17 SWEORDMASTERS (138) -KRAZY KAT 7525 1 0 0 16 ARENA FELINES (559) -BLACK CAT 7527 1 0 0 15 ARENA FELINES (559) -TENDER VITTLES 7523 0 2 0 2 ARENA FELINES (559) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

Anyway, I really do NOT need more golems trying to get into my head! -- Number Two Destiny -- If your team is going to use an archaic name, it should also use archaic weapons and tactics. You are not doing this. Think matters over carefully and adjust your strategy, please. -- Haydan, who wants things done properly Black Devin -- Great! Somebody I can really get my teeth into--just what I needed. I am really, really frustrated just now, and I ENJOYED beating you up. And biting you, too, you stupid runt. -- Outlaw Inlaw Metris Fro, otherwise known as the Caeran Slave -- Now you've got the Wall confused, which is NOT what I needed! A confused golem thinking into my head...no wonder I lose fights! I do not understand your statement that you have been willfully removed from the proper position. This is in violation of the building plans, and the masons would not allow it. If you have been removed from your proper place and incorporated into some new structure, there must be an architectural reason for this. It must be a proper thing. It is wrong to seek to evade the building plans and the will of the masons. You must cease this unfired irregularity. Find solidity in filling your proper niche in the Great Wall and upholding the courses above you. -- Number Two, channelling the Brick Wall Geshi Scrivener is such a sweetie! He promised to take care of my houseplants when I went on vacation, and wrote me the NICEST pass to go, and I didn't even have to argue with Nick! -- Third Charmer 20 September 2004 Azereth has returned! I am the manager for Scarlet Blades in DM 25. I was a member of the Crimson Alliance and the Crimson Brotherhood (which was composed of former CA members). I've been out of the game for many (at least 5) years. I would like to hear from anyone who remembers me, as well as any Alliance that is seeking to add experienced managers to their roster. Contact me at: Anthony Wells 600 W. Shore Dr. Stanton, MI 48888 or by personal ads in DM 25. LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS JEJUNE was viciously subdued by M. CHARDINEE in a crowd pleasing 6 minute fight.
