DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I consider it a demonstration of superior strategy on my part to allow Waelgaest
to take over the bar tab from the old duelmaster, and then LEAVE, taking it WITH him.
After all, I have no use for an old bar tab. There isn't enough paper involved to be
any use.
I see that I am the steeliest wall of steel here today. That's good. I like
the sound of it.
These standbys, now, they're rather disappointing. Captain Eloy wasn't able to
teach me a thing. Not ONE thing. Silly bugger.
Little Bear
SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, MORDANT? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, ONE HIT WONDERS, since BOOZE
took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course, we're all
terribly impressed to see WHISKEY win a fight and gain 20 points, terribly. Tsk,
tsk, WHISKEY beat JOSH and JOSH lost 16 points. You're breakin' my heart. And it's
out with the old, in with the new, as BLACK takes the Title and last week's bar tab
from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how
else do you think some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha!
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
What's the big D? SWEORDMASTERS was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered...
grumble... mumble... curse... And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice?
Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was BOOZE. Ha ha ha ha! Ooh, I'm frightfully
impressed, JOSH was this turn's most challenged warrior. Watch that ego swell,
sports fans. Looks like time for laurels or hemlock, RANDOM MANIAC was challenged by
NAEGLING, who was ranked 29 points below him. My sides still hurt from laughing
about RANDOM MANIAC losing and giving NAEGLING 20 points of recognition. Ha ha ha
ha!! I guess I can give a little credit to FUNKYTOWN of ONE HIT WONDERS for
challenging up by 20 to BRANDY. FUNKYTOWN lost to get 35 points of recognition.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. BOOZE has cause to pause today, as GIN was
sent to the Dark Arena, and came back--though not in the best of moods, I'll wager.
Whoa! I'll even buy 171416119611 a drink tonight! Anyone who can come back from the
Dark Arena, I want to be on its good side! SWEORDMASTERS has cause to pause today,
as 1110141591411 was sent to the Dark Arena, and came back--though not in the best of
moods, I'll wager. And now a passing thought on a warrior dying young (EXTRA of
CLUELESS): You had your chance and now you're dead. Oh well... Titanium shields
and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. Glad
to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
People love me here! I'm the Popularity Leader, and you know what that means! I and
my mission of guarding the alleys of Mordant are *essential* to the well-being and
social life of this city. If it wasn't for *me*, the alleys would be veritable
jungles of drug dealers, perverts, and fornicating felines! I suppose that I may
*occasionally* take a relatively innocent passer-through (nobody is *totally*
innocent), but accidents happen, and besides, I have to stay in training. -- Random
Maniac
What is this? BOOZE is moving up fastest? I can see I will need to add a new
category of malefactor to my mission statement! -- Random Manaic
We salute the PROPERLY LABELED tourney participants, this time. Go, Mordant. --
Jorja and the Homicidal Maniacs
Cerveza -- Alas, the Oaf could not hold you. -- Masked Murderer
P.S. And he proved it all over the alley behind the arena, which really annoyed
Random.
P.P.S. I don't see how you can learn any skills from him. It isn't like he has any
that anyone can see.
Take On Me -- I did, and I was disappointed. It took more than one hit to defeat
you. Why did you keep resisting when it was clear that *I* was the destined winner
of the fight? -- Masked Murderer
P.S. Although, if you drew the fight out in order to teach me all those skills, I
will have to thank you.
This Raffi with his garrote is a sample of one of the Very Bad People who lurk in
alleys! It's the likes of him that I must defeat, but he TRICKED me by getting me
out in the open and SURROUNDING me. I like to have a wall at my back. -- Random
Maniac
Tai -- You're ridiculous. You breakfast on DUMB stuff like (gag) Froot Loops and
then come out and MOST IRRESPONSIBLY win fights! It should not be allowed, and in a
properly run city, it WOULD not be allowed. -- Cereal Killer
