DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Just to show what a good sport I can be, I will NOT complain about taking the
throne and title through a victory over the Kung-Fu Master. (And anyway, it's better
than taking them with a LOSS to the Kung-Fu Master!) It's an honor to hold throne
and title any way I can get it, considering I'm a woman and "not of the True Blood,"
as they say here. It isn't like there are a lot of job opportunities for us
Harkenes, and with upward mobility, too! Why, I could graduate and LEAVE this, uh...
town. A consummation I would not sneeze at.
Peach Nutt
SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of WILLAF. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give
you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. ARENA FELINES had cause
to celebrate, after CAT A. CLYSMIC got 22 points by beating DANGEROUS CRIMINAL. CAT
MAN DO certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to O. PUN PLEEZJ
and losing 5 points in the process! What can be a greater victory? FELIX has taken
his place as the top, as WILLAF's new Duelmaster. So who's the team that's been
walking into taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas?
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Oh hard! that
to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Leave me now, you base fools! My fingers tire and I fear my incessant prattling
may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. WILLAF, I leave you now.
The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Warty Toad. 'Til next time--
Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Oh, my, a Convicted Assassin! I'm so THRILLED to meet with a Convicted Assassin on
my last turn here. It's EXCITING to know how much people want to test themselves
against a proven achiever. I'm just--
(sound of scuffling, and a whack upside the head)
Oran Ji says he's honored to have fought here, and he doesn't mind AT ALL that he
fought a standby for his last match. -- Peach Nutt
A Veteran Mercenary, what FUN! Not just ANY old mercenary, you understand, a true
veteran--a serious warrior, someone to be feared. (snorkle) But not, perhaps,
someone who was QUITE prepared to face a warrior of MY style, eh? Still, I salute a
determined effort, however futile. -- O. Pun Pleezj, feeling cocky
Kurome -- Darn, I should've learned more from you! You must not've been paying
attention to your teaching, yes? -- O. Fish
Tess Tosterone -- Ergh. Pms, right? -- Justa Fox
My, are we sprawled across the front page, or what? -- Jorja, Punny Animals

Youngblood's Three and Out Contest
I would like to take this time to announce and invite all managers to compete in what
I think will be an awesome contest. If you haven't ever TC'd at a tourney before,
here is your chance. The contest will start Wednesday, December 1, 2004, but a
chance will be given November 17 to dark arena, only, any warrior that you do not see
fit to run in the contest. So now that I have your attention, here are the rules
(like you didn't know they were coming sooner or later).
1. Any manager participating can enter one team, only.
2. No sandbagging whatsoever. (I will keep up with it, every turn.)
3. No teams or warriors will be allowed to run after contest starts.
4. All warriors will run until they lose three times, after three losses they are
eliminated.
5. If a warrior sits out a turn, they are accounted with a loss in the contest.
This is to keep warriors with winning records from sitting out until the end of
the contest.
6. If a warrior is killed during the contest, the replacement cannot enter the
contest.
7. If a warrior is killed, bloodfeuding is allowed, but only by a warrior that is
active in the contest.
8. If a warrior is run after being eliminated, the manager is disqualified from the
contest, no questions asked.
9. Challenges are legal, up or down.
10. Contest will keep going until 1 warrior is left without three losses, and that
warrior, of course, is accounted the winner.
11. All managers participating will be asked to purchase a rollup certificate, to be
awarded to the winners of the contest.
<<<PRIZES>>>
As I have already said, and according to participation, rollups will be awarded
to the first and second place managers. So the majority and minority of the rollups
will be determined when all are accumulated.
Contest Champion--2 Faves prizes, and majority of rollup certificates
Contest Runner-up--1 Faves prize, and minority of rollup certificates
So once again I invite all managers old and new to participate in what should be
a fierce and challenging contest. <<<REMEMBER, FIRST OFFICIAL TURN OF THE CONTEST IS
DECEMBER THE FIRST, AND AS I SAID BEFORE, THE TURN BEFORE (NOVEMBER 17TH) YOU MAY
DARK ARENA CHALLENGE ONLY!!! ANY WARRIOR WITH ANY FE (FIGHT EXPERIENCE) WHEN THE
CONTEST STARTS WILL BE ELIMINATED FROM THE CONTEST.
