SERPENT2 caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and was awarded 20 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, DESMOND TUTU put down HELENADERE, causing her to lose 15 points of recognition in the process. Although AMBEERDEXTROUS made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious HEMLOCK. No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps? Many and various are the arts of battle. In NIANIA "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! NIANIA, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy guilds is 042909A, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part of last week avoiding 042909A. Indeed it was SERPENTS HOLD. What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt! The girls are as pretty in NIANIA as ever I remembered them....and the fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! 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 HEMLOCK 5654 8 2 0 126 SERPENTS HOLD (664) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -BOLD MR.

But cheese louise, isn't that supposed to work both ways? I didn't say a single word, and she just JUMPED out at me and whacked me right and left! It's more than enough! It's too much. -- Helenadere Ghandi -- Bah, and I hope they feed you BEEF. This has been a rotten week, and the next one's going to be worse, and I'm not cutting anyone any slack! -- Lorinda P.S. Nothing personal. Immanuel Kant -- Oh, good skills! I like that kind of teaching in a philospher. Not to mention that you lost, which is always desirable in an opponent. -- Fredililla Desmond Tutu -- Your stamina is amazing. I didn't think a guy could dance around like that for so long in a steel tutu. -- Harkranz Persistent Beggar with two Gees -- Again I say bah, and also pooh. -- Tarimez P.S. I don't see why you need two gees. It's an encumbrance you could do fine without, I'm sure. LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS SEE YA was butchered by DARK CHAMPION in a 2 minute bloody Dark Arena fight.
