                                 DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
                             Notes from the arena champ.

     We didn't make Top Team, so we don't have to do a spotlight.  This is the good
news, I really didn't want to talk about the Quest for the Door.  It was... strange
and disconcering.  Embarrassing, even.
     Certain misguided teammates of mine, specifically Biting Fly, tried to argue
that the Popularity Leader and This Week's Favorite titles might require a spotlight
of us, but... no.
     For those of you who are incurably curious, I will just say, briefly, that Anvil
claimed there was a Magical Shortcut to reach the door, and that we would be wise to
use the said M.S. because of the blizzard.
     For "Magical Shortcut" read "magical trap."  Fortunately, I have a certain knack
which is useful in such situations, and I was able to defeat the Magical Shortcut.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for DULLENS.  MVP award for BLACKHORN?  CARDOW 
HUNTERS' proud of him after beating POLYJUICE TWINS and getting 19 points.  Talk 
about yer big time losers!  POLYJUICE TWINS got smashed by BLACKHORN, and lost 9 
points!  Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think STONEDOG should let 
THUMBSCREWS be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it.  Who was the 
wiseguy that said DULLENS' Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Sleepy Smithy?  
Don't look at me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All DULLENS ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out 
of a job, that's what!!!   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop.  Its 
been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

Thumbscrews -- You're going to be unpleasantly surprised when you find out that I bit
you on the thumb with my special dentifrice. -- Biting Fly

Sam Adams -- I wouldn't mind getting to know you in a more relaxed setting.  Not our
guildhouse--we still don't have a proper door.  But there must be a cafe or something
like that?  Nothing high-pressure:  sit and talk, maybe share a simple meal, see if
there's any future between us? -- Rainbird

Polyjuice Twins -- In some other venue, seeing two women like you approaching would
be pleasant, would lead to all sorts of positive ideas, but in the arena... oogh!. --
Blackhorn

Pimped Out Broom -- I hold you PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE for the failure of the
expedition for the door.  YOU LET ME DOWN!  You and your wretched teammate, Magical
Shortcut. -- Anvil
