Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see DIZZY DAN win a fight and gain 12 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, CRYINARA beat LOVABLE LARRY and LOVABLE LARRY lost 5 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, NIANIA may be getting bland, as GWAR stays top dog in the city. Jim's Tap Room, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From NIANIA's trash dumps? Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys. NIANIA, I am losing what little hope I had in you. THE RUNAROUND the most avoided team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And it looks like MENTOR DEMENTOR avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for NIANIA's morgue. More variety. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one. 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. Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of NIANIA. I feel much better now. I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GWAR 6074 16 15 1 84 MENTOR DEMENTOR (697) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CHAZZ 6132 10 2 1 86 MENTOR DEMENTOR (697) CRYINARA 6131 14 11 1 72 THE RUNAROUND (381) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MAMBA 6100 4 3 0 60 SERPENTS HOLD (700) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BITTER BRANDI 6139 5 1 0 54 WEIRD STUDENTS (704) DIZZY DAN 6135 7 2 0 48 WEIRD STUDENTS (704) -VERSATILE VINNY 6137 5 3 1 47 WEIRD STUDENTS (704) LOVABLE LARRY 6136 5 2 0 42 WEIRD STUDENTS (704) -SKITZO 4989 1 3 0 38 HATEFUL (587) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -D.N.C. 5428 2 2 0 32 HATEFUL (587) -EAU DE PERE 5789 2 23 0 29 THE RUNAROUND (381) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -LOVELY LINDA 6138 4 1 0 23 WEIRD STUDENTS (704) -COOL RUN-IN 6213 3 1 0 21 THE RUNAROUND (381) FIVEHEAD 6222 2 0 0 21 MENTOR DEMENTOR (697) -OZWEEPAY 5004 2 3 0 19 HATEFUL (587) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
