DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well, knock my socks off and call me a willow! To defeat Street Legal was a
pleasant surprise, to receive an Invitation to the Isle was totally astonishing. I
suppose it was the political points.
Bristlecone
SPY REPORT
So why do I have this bag over my head? Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and
I'm going to give you a spy report!. Hey everybody, watch out for STEVE, who flew up
25 points in the rankings after mashing TERRASQUE like a melon. Keep your eye on
this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was TERRASQUE, who dropped 24
points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with STEVE. In front of all the
crowds, CYBERMANCER took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I give the bum two
weeks. 4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming at
that location.
Here is other news that is of note.
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! ESREVER defied all odds and slew
HIGH ELF in the Dark Arena. The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as HIGH
ELF's meat is notoriously tough. Here's some advice: warriors with little wit and
will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, there's the manager of the MALCORN giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some
tracks. Its been fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you
worked up for Snide Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster

Maximillian -- Guess you managed to pull it back together after Bristlecone's plea
for a green solstice. -- Stonebow
Master Darque -- I guess neither one of us saw that one coming. -- Ghost of
Silverbird
Steve -- I'm not getting where you fit on the rainbow? Or maybe it just connects you
to something, I suppose. Hmm. A pot of gold. You and me could have fun with a pot
of gold. -- Honeysuckle
Iron Cog -- Ah, no, iron is passee. It rusts. They tell me that these days, it's
all plastic. Bleh. -- Sourwood
