DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Look, you guys, don't let the Brick Wall keep the title! I don't have TIME to
channel its columns every two weeks!
Snag, the Wall is still pondering, if a wall can ponder, our teammate's chance
comment of a couple of weeks ago, and this has, if you can imagine it, disturbed its
concentration. Thus the short fight. At least, that would be my guess. It isn't
like I'm an expert on the thought processes, if any, of bricks. Heck, I can only
channel the Wall's "personals" when I'm fairly well sloshed, and I don't remember
much once I get sober.
Bottle of Beer,
For the Brick Wall
P.S. This job makes me nervous, 'specially when I think of the fate of the previous
channels....
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in MORDANT this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. The LAB EXPERIMENTS 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, ROOKIE MANAGER fought MISCHIEVOUS IMP and gained 23 points and
contributed to HOMICIDAL MANIACS' 1-4-0. MISCHIEVOUS IMP has lost to ROOKIE MANAGER,
falling 19 points, while helping make SWEORDMASTERS a 2-3-1 turn. And all eyes were
on SNAG this turn as he ascended to the throne of Duelmaster. MORDANT has a new
victor! Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing
fighters do dishes at Conan's Place until they win. Maybe?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one.
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. Will HOMICIDAL MANIACS get away with ROOKIE MANAGER having killed MARK OF
THE BLESSED of THE REVELATION? One more turn, and the bloodfeud's over, at least
officially. Is it really true that MORDANT has more dishwashers per capita that
fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in MORDANT, 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

PERSONAL ADS
Hellacious -- That's an awkward neologism, you know. -- Haydan
2000 Yr. Old Man -- You, sir, are a FRAUD. Great age in a golem means nothing, and
we can't even be sure that you are an old golem, just that you LOOK old. Many golems
don't age, so you COULD be TWO years old, and just made with wrinkles, or something.
-- Bottle of Beer
Honest Jiles -- I believe there was an output error in that fight. It outputted that
I lost, which can't be true. I'm mean and Evil and I have glowing red eyes and I go
Bwa-ha-ha. I'm SINISTER, dammit. You're supposed to run screaming in fear whenever
you see me. -- Rookie Manager
Haiku -- We want to congratulate you on having shut up the Deadly Bore. He thought
he had to cast his personal into the form of a haiku, and the syllable count did him
in. We're hoping his catatonic trance lasts another two weeks. -- the rest of the
Homicidal Maniacs

I have returned after a five-year absence. I expect all tithes, gifts and bequeaths
to resume as normal. -- Magic Man
