Again I burn the 4 Bridges behind me. At this rate, I'm going to have some serious enemies among the bridge-building classes. Not something I view with total equanimity, but then I'm a gladiator. I don't view ANYTHING with total equanimity, because it might be sneaking up on me. Larsen E SPY REPORT Welcome NIANIA. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... What's with SASHINDA? She actually beat NIANIA's VETERAN MERCENARY, and walked away with 15 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at THE GOLDEN FISH while they watched HAROLUE clobber TORTONI. He lost 3 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. Try as he might, INSURANCE SALESMAN wasn't good enough at persuading LARSEN E to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting! No matter the time or place, men will always duel. Warriors of NIANIA unite. You have only your games to lose! Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take note! Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? NIANIA is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME LARSEN E 5421 15 4 1 102 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SASHINDA 5434 10 2 1 77 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) -4 BRIDGES 5347 5 5 0 75 OUT THE WINDOW (630) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME KORONEDUS 5430 9 5 0 60 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -SPIRITUAL PAIN 5458 4 1 1 42 TEAM HAVOK (645) -HAND OF HELL 5456 3 2 1 40 TEAM HAVOK (645) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -IRON GYPSY 5454 4 1 0 25 TEAM HAVOK (645) -SWITZER'S 5350 3 1 0 24 OUT THE WINDOW (630) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -VENDETTA 5455 4 1 0 20 TEAM HAVOK (645) KEY LIME 5444 2 0 0 18 SWEETS (643) -MISSISSIPPI 5349 1 0 0 15 OUT THE WINDOW (630) -EJ DOME 5351 1 0 0 13 OUT THE WINDOW (630) HAROLUE 5464 1 1 0 11 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) -ORANGE CONE 5348 1 1 0 8 OUT THE WINDOW (630) TORTONI 5452 1 2 0 5 SWEETS (643) GILLANDE 5465 0 2 0 2 THE GOLDEN FISH (147) -HAND OF GOD 5466 0 1 0 1 TEAM HAVOK (645) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn. THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN Revenge? FATAL ANGEL 5457 3 1 0 TEAM HAVOK 645 SASHINDA 5434 453 PERSONAL ADS Hand of Hell -- I considered cutting it off, as you might be quite an unexceptionable person otherwise, but then I thought, "No, what if he's chose to be this hell-handed person? Who am I to make the decision for him?" So I just bashed you around a little, in a gladiatorial way, and let it go at that. -- Sashinda, feeling tolerant today Iron Gypsy -- Cool id number you've got there. Really unlucky matchup for you, also. I thought gypsies knew all about crossing the palm with silver, in this case the palm belonging to the handicapper who sets up the random matches. I grant you the guy wears a mask like he's trying to hide something (such as his identity), but I'm sure a gypsy could figure out who he is sooner or later. You might want to look into this. -- Koronedus Tortoni -- Well, darn! I looked for someone so sweet to be a female of some persuasion. Bummer that you're not, because there is NO WAY I am asking a guy to go dancing with me. Assuming I can still dance after this encounter. -- Harolue Vendetta -- Well, heck. If I'd had a desperation strategy, I could employ it all the time, but I didn't and I already do. Drat. And I was doing so well at the end of the first minute, too. I guess it's time to work on the old wind sprints. -- Gillande, who does not want to do wind sprints Hand of God -- Wow. -- Sashinda Seef Haraine -- Ask me if I care. -- Larsen E Spiritual Pain -- This will not let you off the interest you owe me. -- Sedmon Var, Merchant and Moneylender LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS LARSEN E bested INSURANCE SALESMAN in a 2 minute bloody Title fight. SASHINDA won victory over VETERAN MERCENARY in a 1 minute battle. KORONEDUS handily defeated DANGEROUS CRIMINAL in a 1 minute gruesome one-sided match. KEY LIME bested GILLANDE in a popular 1 minute contest. TORTONI was defeated by HAROLUE in a 2 minute amateur's match.
