It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly MORDANT games. 171211151775 caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested CRAB POT and was awarded 14 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, COPPER JOHN put down POOP DECK GUY, causing him to lose 6 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has WAIF in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week she's proven hers combat skill yet again. Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out! I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? CRAB POT must hold silent, for this week he was humbled in the arena by a successful Bloodfeud won by 171211151775 of LAB EXPERIMENTS. Hail 171211151775 for thy victory! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always! A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise manager learn the secrets of them all? Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WAIF 8160 12 3 0 117 SWEORDMASTERS (138) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -HONEST JILES 7576 12 2 0 115 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) KOOK AROCHA 8120 18 5 3 106 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) WAYWARD SON 8180 8 0 2 94 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME RECESS 8241 9 0 2 90 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) MIASMA 8104 20 4 0 86 SWEORDMASTERS (138) JETSAM 8172 10 7 1 86 SEA DOGS (575) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME TONY SIRAGUSA 7882 5 1 0 61 BETTER OFF DEAD (590) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WYRD 8156 6 5 0 49 SWEORDMASTERS (138) COPPER JOHN 8279 4 0 0 47 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MAJOR PAYNE 8295 3 0 0 29 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) HAMFIST 8292 3 0 0 28 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME POOP DECK GUY 8274 1 4 1 23 SEA DOGS (575) -BLACK 8252 1 1 0 17 FULL SPECTRUM (611) BISMARCK 8284 2 3 0 16 MANNEQUIN'S BEST (537) 171211151775 8303 1 0 1 14 LAB EXPERIMENTS (261) -QUEEN 8258 1 1 0 14 CHESS PIECES 1 (612) FLOTSAM 8289 2 1 0 13 SEA DOGS (575) RUM RUNNER 8296 0 2 0 2 SEA DOGS (575) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

It has been a while since the last get together (several years). It was a blast and I am sure the next one will be also. We just have to do it. All alliances are welcome. Just because my warriors leave your warrior beaten and bloody in defeat does not mean we can't have a beer or five together. I'll even buy the first round. So call 805-588-3419 and ask for Dave a.k.a. Misfit, former member of the Green and Purple Polka Dot Alliance (GAPPDA).
