     The seas had been cold and merciless.  Wuflhere often regretted his wanderlust
but the bug had bitten him again six months ago, so he had set sail for open waters.
Raiding and pillaging was in the blood of the Danes and he found it hard to resist
his ancestral urge.  This time he had lost two good men and almost lost a third.
     "Raise your mugs to Bonecrusher and Thorgrimm for they will be sorely missed,"
bellowed Wuflhere at the head of the long stone table.  Caelum, Sorak, and Scarheart
agreed heartily as they all emptied their cups and slammed them on the table in
salute to their fallen comrades.  "It is good to be back but we can waste no time
grieving; we must fill the void our friends left."  Wulfhere went on, "we need to
find three able swords so our stable can continue our competition in the arena.  I
hope this summer's games will be more forgiving than the winter waters have been.
Scour the town for recruits and meet in our training pit by noon today...we have a
lot of rust to shake off."

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly RIZTAB games.  Fortune did not smile upon WHO DA MAN? 
this time out who this turn suffered a fall into 16th position in the wake of a 0-0-0 
round.  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner!  Witness how 
this week TRIPLE 6 MAFIA went 2-0-0 to move up 4 in the rankings.  The city turned 
out in welcome to meet the banners of a new guild, HAWK'S NEST, as they entered the 
city this week. May victory find you!  AGGRANDIZIN ANNE caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested YOSHII and was awarded 34 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, ALEX SCHIMMELFENNIG put down 
THALES, causing him to lose 19 points of recognition in the process.  Due to his 
absence and inability to defend the throne, BANSHEE has lost the title of Duelmaster. 
This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.  All hail CHIC SHEIK, Duelmaster 
of RIZTAB!  Heed this!  A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, 
the whole city shall perish!  Just remember...5 or 7!   
     But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades 
that is city RIZTAB.  Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms 
the knowledge that many fighters are after AUTUMN LEAVES.  Watch your back!  At the 
gambling halls I have started to bet money on BROTHER ZERO.  He has got the courage 
it takes.  Witness his challenge this turn against BUDDHA!  3 points of newly earned 
recognition and a dose of my admiration is what BROTHER ZERO must now weigh against 
the defeat which resulted.   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  The warrior's path is harsh.  For mediocrity there is but one 
reward--death.  This past week YOSHII, at 13-10-0, departed RIZTAB forever.  Death 
has again visited the sands of our arena.  AGGRANDIZIN ANNE has claimed the life of 
YOSHII.  Do any doubt that TEAM MARIO will seek a bloody revenge?  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 RIZTAB.  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 next we meet remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  
The wise are angered by the same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes

Hale Bopper -- Bloody Brawl. -- Molly

Losing is Fun -- I guess I can see how that particular loss would tickle your fancy.
-- Hang-Ten Harry

Kant -- I lost the initiative, while not hitting very hard anyway. -- Aggrandizin
Anne

Banshee -- I still think it's just WRONG for you to be male, but what the heck, at
least it's YOU that has to do the column.  Better you than me! -- Tillerita

Hawkeye -- What a little twerp you are.  Hmm, I wonder how you'd do against the Green
Arrow, eh?  Might be interesting to see. -- Tala Gog

Fuzzy Butt -- (sneezing violently)  Dodt DO dadt, dammid!  I'b allershig. --
Alourshin

Feline Grin -- Grin all you want, I'm grinning to.  Positively the last time I will
be fighting you, because when the day comes (if it comes), I'm retiring. -- Sugar
Jane

Nick Fury -- Good gods, man, think of your blood pressure! -- Autumn Leaves

Maverick -- DC Rules Boy!, you simple-minded mainstream conformist. -- Comrade Kook

Molly -- Molly, Molly, Molly, when will you learn learn, girl?  You thought you were
bad?  That your anti-epic with Yoda Man was the dregs of gladiatorial combat?  You
have no idea how bad a warrior can be, babe.  I've taken incompetence to a whole new
level.  There are scum out there with superior attack, bashers with better defense,
but no one, living or dead, with less talent.  You hear that, little Yoda-boy, I'm
comin for ya.  To prove once and for all that Riztab's gutter is cleaned, swept, and
dominated by only one inferior fighter.  And That Would Be Me!! -- Hale Bopper

A few notes about e-mailed personals:

You may submit personal ads, columns, spotlights, etc. electronically, either via e-
mail to ads at reality dot com (which doesn't need any more spam, thank you) or on
the web at http://www.reality.com/duel2/modules.php?name=Ads.  When you submit
something, you should get back a receipt from HAL at RSI.  If you do NOT get a
receipt, your ads may have gone astray (not all e-mail makes it to its destination
any more than all snail mail does).  If you DO get a receipt, it should, in the body
of the message, tell you what arena your stuff was filed in.  Check your receipt to
make sure your submission made it to the intended destination.  Also check to see
that everything you sent made it to the same place.  Sometimes HAL, who is rather
simple-minded in some ways, will send half your stuff to another arena if the name
or number of that arena shows up at the beginning of a line.  So if the word Ti
appears at the beginning of a line halfway through your ads, all the ads after that
may end up in Ti, which is closed and doesn't need ads.  As a side note, sometimes
things move slowly, so don't wait until the last minute to send your ads and all.
If they get held up along the way, they may not show up until next turn.  Happy
writing! -- Ed.
