Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Woof! BEACH BABES were a bunch of dogs after SENTINELS got through with 'em! 2nd ain't so sweet as 1st! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, SENTINELS' 1st moved them up to 4-1-0 place. What's with SUSIE? She actually beat STRANGE DAZE's MOIRAI FURY, and walked away with 16 more points from the fight. Major screwup at STRANGE DAZE. MOIRAI FURY lost 9 points to SUSIE. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe MOIRAI FURY will provide more easy wins... Another fighter (SLAMMER 15-12-3) challenged another Duelmaster (FATALITY 14-4-0). Life goes on. I'm sure BONSUR is excited about SLAMMER, the new Duelmaster from AMEN!. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting! If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. The most avoided team was AMEN!. The bums at SENTINELS couldn't face the challenges from AMEN!! No excuse for that! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, MOIRAI FURY! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters to walk away, or not? So CHURCH LADIES sent DEBBIE to the Dark Arena. Big deal. Plenty more fighters where DEBBIE came from. Dime a dozen... Now, Spyreporters... How long have I been here? I got people to see, places to go... Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? The end of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book! Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MOSES 2727 19 8 0 97 AMEN!

Did you really need to be aiming at the head? At least we know you are not an Ogre, because if you were you clearly would have been the one smashed. I hate losing veterans. -- Nomad and the Sentinels Nora -- You're helping my popularity, but that really is not what I am going for. Go spend more time with Obrojobo. -- Erasmus Koochie -- Hey! Who are you? Welcome (back) to Bonsur! Glad to have you here...and even more glad to have picked up another win! I have no interest in fighting at night. -- Chios Pensacolita -- A nice little fight. Not as much fun as on the beach sands with you ladies perhaps, but still a good time. Nice try. -- Obrojobo Debbie -- Well, that got a bit long and dull. I may need to do something about that. -- Neanderthal Moses -- I can't decide--is an abstract sculpture of a burning bush made out of swords (not plowshares?) appropriate or ironic? I guess if it is your sword next time I won't care. As for Huntsman, he is getting impatient as he sits inactive on the Isle--look him up when you get there, he should have some free time. -- Obrojobo Sentinels -- Sorry about Ogresmasher. I hate to see a fellow basher go down. Especially one who shares my impeccable sense of style. -- Slammer Farewell Bonsur! It's been a little slice of Heaven! Come on, Galveston's ghost. We have a ferry to catch. -- Slammer Erasmus -- I was going to make some kind of witty comment, but I forget what it was. I couldn't write it down when it first came to me because I had been blinded by an opthamalogist. -- N'Orleans Nora Obrojobo -- That would be a good name for a drink. Something exotic and stronger than you think it's going to be. -- Pensacolita P.S. Come by the cabana and we can test some stuff? That Fratsfa Slave is pathetic. He's worthless and weak and does not belong here. We should send him to Fratsfa, where people will REALLY dump on him because he's a Shagornan elf.... -- Long Beach Lila Susie -- Whew! For a minute there, I thought I'd have to throw in the towel! Good thing you burned out. -- Teri Towyl Well, heck, I'd desert Mordant, too, if I found myself stuck there. -- Palmetta Patty Oh, no! Ogresmasher! Say it isn't SO! -- all the Beach Babes, dismayed Neanderthal -- Ah, I shall correct my thinking then. Why, dna studies say you even come redheaded and all sorts of "normal human" flavors. How's your capacity for vin? -- Nora Our congratulations to Slammer, graduating killer. -- the Beach Babes P.S. We'll really miss Ogresmahser. Lord Protector Slammer -- Ah... Queen Gemra expects that, as a dwarf, you will not be staying in the area and therefore will have no need of lands here, or even, she points out, an apartment. Quite so. But she does wish you a good trip to the Isle. -- Grendal, Chancellor to the Queen LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS DEBBIE was butchered by MOUNTAIN TROLL in a 2 minute bloody Dark Arena fight. SLAMMER vanquished FATALITY in a 1 minute uneven Challenge battle. KOOCHIE GALORE was narrowly defeated by TERI TOWYL in a 3 minute Challenge fight. KYU-SHO FURY devastated PALMETTA PATTY in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge fight. SUSIE demolished MOIRAI FURY in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge competition. ARTIS was vanquished by MOSES in a exciting 1 minute mismatched Title fight. OBROJOBO devastated LONG BEACH LILA in a 1 minute one-sided competition. N'ORLEANS NORA unbelievably bested ERASMUS in a action packed 4 minute melee. NEANDERTHAL won victory over CRASH in a 4 minute veteran vs. beginner duel. TRUTH was overpowered by PENSACOLITA in a 2 minute gruesome one-sided fight. CHIOS beat PERSISTENT BEGGAR in a 2 minute fight. VIRULENT was demolished by OLIANDER in a 1 minute mismatched match.
