DM 72 DRAGONHEAD (turn 261): TOO SHORT of BASH BROS HAIR CUT (Assurnasirbanipal) SPY REPORT Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! BOOZE after a sorry 1-1-0 might want to consider abandoning the sands and taking up singing the 'Can't fight no more' blues! Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive observation?) as GOD SQUAD can attest... RUN DMC had cause to celebrate, after COLOSSEUM HALLS got 23 points by beating ABYSSINIAN. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 31 points to COLOSSEUM HALLS. (Discrete enough, ABYSSINIAN?) Well, Duelmaster GRASSCUTTER challenged LOW ROAD 3's CHELSEA NOREN. Is a 10-0-1 good enough? Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by CHELSEA NOREN, of LOW ROAD 3, who despite a 19-12-0 couldn't overcome MORDANT's Number 1. So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me. A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of SWEORDMASTERS, alone and unchallenged. Like a pup with its tail between its legs, RUN DMC scurried away from SWEORDMASTERS. Oh, the shame! Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, CHELSEA NOREN is the most challenged warrior. Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after life! Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! Do not think spyreporting in MORDANT is the highlight of my life. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my control, I must take my leave of this place. Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid MORDANT farewell-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GRASSCUTTER 8750 11 0 1 168 SWEORDMASTERS (138) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BOA 8830 10 8 0 109 SERPENTS' HOLD (642) COLOSSEUM HALLS 8871 15 5 0 96 RUN DMC (636) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MUTANT BLOWBY 5520 13 8 0 90 GOD SQUAD (376) DOWNWITHTHEKING 8736 12 7 0 87 RUN DMC (636) ABYSSINIAN 7043 8 2 0 85 CAT'S MEOW (522) RUN'S HOUSE 8735 6 1 0 84 RUN DMC (636) BOSOMY GOLDMINE 8537 4 0 0 82 SUPER STARS R US (626) BLACK BONKER 8749 19 19 1 77 HOMICIDAL MANIACS (121) BELTRAN MOSS 8905 15 16 1 73 LOW ROAD 3 (644) S...
