                             Notes from the arena champ.

     One of the worst things about becoming Duelmaster is having to write a DM Column.  
And I don't get paid one bit extra for the hazardous duty. Does that make sense?
     So, for that, you get my predictions for the near future:
1. Bill Clinton gets elected President of the USA.
2. The UNLV Running Rebels ate the NCAA Football champions for 2015/2016
3. Lee and Sandy sell RSI to Donald Trump.
4. Mexico secedes from The United States.
5. Bill Gates gives Greece $60 Billion to settle their debt.
6. China buys Russia and sends 100 Million dissents to Siberia.
7. Starbucks brings out the #1 beer in the world in 2016.
     Those zesty items should give you something to chew on. May the Z's be with you.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, ARKERS?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, BASH BROS SHOWER, since BORN 
LOSERS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  Now keep the taverns 
open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for THE CHOSEN, whose 3-2-0 this 
turn dropped them by 7 into 9th.  Ha!  BORN LOSERS turned their 3-2-0 turn into a 1st 
place rank in the listings this turn.  Any better than this, and you get put on hit 
lists.  Gee, I'm impressed, a 4-1-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, STEEL PROPHETS, the 
Fates teach humility, and the Fates are proud.  Of course, we're all terribly 
impressed to see DOOM GROOVER win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, 
DINGO MCGEE beat LUCKY STRIKES and LUCKY STRIKES lost 13 points.  You're breakin' my 
heart.  And if variety is the spice of life, ARKERS may be getting bland, as ZEST 
stays top dog in the city.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do 
you think some of these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.  HOYT 
FOUNDATION, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.  
Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And who led the way in this mass act of 
cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was GHOSTWALKERS 2.  Ha ha ha ha!  
Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, DRULINDA was this turn's most challenged warrior.  
Watch that ego swell, sports fans.  AMAZON QUEEN was challenged by one of THE 
CHOSEN's warriors this turn, with SEHWYN STEEL having a lead of 17 points going into 
the fight.  And sorry to say, SEHWYN STEEL beat AMAZON QUEEN, leaving a bad feeling 
with the crowd.  I think exploitive snob is the term I'm looking for.  Now look at 
this.  PARIS TROUT challenged down 28 against SERIOUS LEE's DRAMATIC LEE.  What a 
weasel!  Question now is, will ARKERS accept this sort of tacky behavior?  PARIS 
TROUT beating DRAMATIC LEE.  The insult, the....yech!  I guess I can give a little 
credit to ETON THE STALWART of THE CHOSEN for challenging up by 18 to THE GYPSY.  
ETON THE STALWART won to get 51 points of recognition.   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for ARKERS' 
morgue.  More variety.  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.  
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.   
     There's got to be a better place in ARKERS to get a drink than The Welcome 
Wench!  Any suggestions?  Phlllt!  Just had to do that before I leave the fine city 
of ARKERS.  I feel much better now.  I see the crowds are getting restless, I must 
leave now-- Snide Clemens

If you plan to attend the Winter Face-to-Face in Phoenix, please let Customer Service 
know.  We will hold your turns for the few days preceding the tourney, starting with 
anything that would mail out on the previous Saturday.  (This means that games due on 
Thursday the 9th (which would mail on Friday) would probably mail to you, but games 
due on the 10th and thereafter will be held and delivered to you at the tournament.  
This way, you won't have to worry about not receiving a critical turn before you 
depart for Newark, and you also don't have to worry about whether you can get a 
reprint before the first turn of the tournament is due.  

See you there!
