Practice pays for MARI COY, who pummelled KHALHUMS DWARF, to pocket 11 points. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 4 points to SHOCKING. (Discrete enough, MELLISANDE?) SPIKE MCGOLD found out that NIANIA isn't a democracy. You've gotta be the best to be Duelmaster here! So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem... A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors. Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee. Do not think spyreporting in NIANIA is the highlight of my life. As the seasons change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. Do not despair! I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THE SHOCKER 5356 13 2 1 111 INQUISITION SL5 (631) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MARETHA 5370 12 2 0 99 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) SPIKE MCGOLD 5318 19 17 0 98 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) MARI COY 5342 17 8 0 96 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SHOCKING 5352 11 5 0 88 INQUISITION SL5 (631) MELLISANDE 5332 17 16 1 79 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -SWITZER'S 5350 3 1 0 24 OUT THE WINDOW (630) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -4 BRIDGES 5347 1 2 0 19 OUT THE WINDOW (630) -MISSISSIPPI 5349 1 0 0 15 OUT THE WINDOW (630) -EJ DOME 5351 1 0 0 13 OUT THE WINDOW (630) -ORANGE CONE 5348 1 1 0 8 OUT THE WINDOW (630) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn. THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN Revenge? PERSONAL ADS Well, it looks like a case of "the same old same old" this time. Two standbys, The Shocker, and Shocking. What a surprise, eh? But I'm not sure we can manage yet more personals to these characters. -- Nick, Golden Fish 6 June 2006 To those involved, no, I have not abandoned your stories. But I've been letting them drift, and that has to stop, so I am taking the time to make sure that I know where they are going, more than just "what happens next" dreamed up on the fly, before resuming work on them. No new stories will be started until at least one of the old ones has concluded, for the same reason: quantity can't substitute for quality. Your patience in this matter is appreciated. -- the Scribe 20 June 2006 Dark Knights of the Desolate Empire Our newest Dark Knight disrespected?!?!?! ARE THEY SERIOUS?!?!
