DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ooops, what have I done lately. Apologies to The Muffin Man about last turn's title
fight. I guess one can't just sit back and rest on tourney laurels. Next turn you
will get to see just how embarrassing it was to lose to me (unless I lose and fall
below 91 recognition points). My money's on Pink Nose being here next turn, but it
really depends on who makes what challenges.

Imported Footballers
SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly BONSUR games. Former top team BEACH BABES was
unseated this week as IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top
spot with a 3-2-0 record for the round. My praise to WASTELAND II for their 3-1-0
week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice!
In one of the week's more notable duels, PIRES put down LADY ASTRID, causing her to
lose 11 points of recognition in the process. Who here was not present for the title
fight this week as PINK NOSE boldly Bloodfeuded PESCHISOLIDO in order to strive for
the Duelmasters honors? The city has turned out in honor of PINK NOSE, for with his
arena victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Informants
"close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on
beneath his armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city BONSUR. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. WASTELAND II is feared. This much I can say. Apparently
the stalwarts of IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot but
expect competition from those below. UMBRELLA MAN take warning! You have more than
a few enemies in BONSUR. I can not but mention with disdain the name of
CAT-IN-THE-HAT who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 8 points below in
the rankings. I thought CAT-IN-THE-HAT showed great skill and promise when he was
bested by LAGUNA LIL. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Walk proud, warriors of WASTELAND II!
By striking down PESCHISOLIDO you have avenged the honor of your dead. Your virtue
is known to all in BONSUR. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable
with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in BONSUR. Nice atmosphere you have here! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! 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

PERSONAL ADS
Pink Nose -- It's the sun. And especially here when it reflects off the beach and
off the water as well as coming down from the sky. Triple threat! Sometimes it
isn't enough to wear sunscreen. Sometimes even a hat isn't enough. You have to
wear a nose mask. You can get all kinds, from just simple nose masks all the way to
ones that have a mustache attached for the laughs or whatever. So, okay, it can look
a little goofy, but so does having a sunburned nose! -- Laguna Lil
Dikembe Mutumbo -- We've done this before, haven't we? Our whole team, probably,
and, of course, you. I guess it's one of those, what they call "matches made in very
small arenas." Yes? -- Salton Seahorse
Wakko -- You! May you choke on the umbrella in your drink! -- Umbrella Man
Solskjaer -- I really was shocked, not just on the verge! What a name! -- Sandy
Shore
P.S. Why would anyone import footballers? That seems like, you know, defeating a
purpose. Not that I know what the purpose is. I mean, I know you throw the ball
around, but you don't have to import people for that! Even *I* can throw a ball
around. Of course, having somebody catch it is different. But there are, you know,
dogs.
Tonya -- We had a teammate with that name once, but she died. They do that. You
want to be careful, or it might happen to YOU. Not by me, of course, but somebody
out there might just KILL you! -- Beach Betty
P.S. I know, it doesn't make any sense. I mean, WHY? What good does it do anybody?
But it happens.
P.P.S. Probably because it's mostly men. They don't have logical minds, you know.
They always get hung up on weird stuff.
Ghost of Claritin Junkie -- That's awful! You've been a landmark here for so long!
-- the Beach Babes
P.S. You should have taken early retirement, or something. Gosh, we're going to
actually MISS you!

We of the Desolate Empire Alliance want to announce with glad hearts that Heathen
Hatebred is no longer just a friend, but also an alliance-mate. Heathen brings a lot
with him to our alliance. His experience, talent, and loyalty will be a great
benefit to us all. Welcome Heathen; may all our enemies' blood continue to flow
freely! -- Dark Knights of the Desolate Empire
