DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I knew I didn't like Assassins, and this one just proves it again.
Marey D'Nuit
SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out WILLAF to see
what's new. MVP award for GOLDEN EAGLE? GOLDEN GLADIATORS' proud of him after
beating STOGA STEEL and getting 17 points. Talk about yer major upsets! BRUAR's
match with FANGS ARDENTE cost him a loss of 12 points! Don't you think the
Duelmaster is being unfair? I think SILVIA MINNO should let VETERAN MERCENARY be
Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Who was the wiseguy that said
WILLAF's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Dripping Blade? Don't look at me!
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff. The warriors of YAMABUSHI must be getting lonely. They were the
most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? I don't know what
GOLDEN GLADIATORS' been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights
from YAMABUSHI, that's fer sher.
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. 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. I had
a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Silva -- First The Chardinee and then the Convicted Assassin. Seems like you have
some very nice suitors if you ask me. No matter what, congrats and good luck. --
Midas
Hirokawa has certainly shown himself to be a Yamabushi warrior by:
being a quick and formidable killer.
eliminating the ultra-conservative area political presence
thwarting his team's nemesis, those Golden Warriors
It was a randomly matched, but well fought execution. I don't like it, but I do
respect it. -- Midas, Golden Gladiators
Goldwater was an ambi, slightly damage-hosed, but-otherwise mode striker at 11-10-9-
15-9-9-21. He learned at about a 1.0 skill/fight rate and was struggling to find a
weapon to "hurt" with. (QS best at 3-20-3) I look forward to his replacement. --
Midas
Baarbra -- That is sooooo like you--not listening! "Silence Is Golden--It is not!
You keep SAYING that and by the very act proving yourself wrong. -- Baabra Lammont"
-- Silence Is Golden
Fangs Ardente -- All that stored up latent energy just came out on you, eh? -- Gold
Cache
I think *I* should be Duelmaster this time. After all, Marey lost to the Convicted
Assassin, and I defeated him. Seems reasonable to me. -- Silvia Minno
Silvia -- Oh, for the cat's sake! I had an off day. Sue me. -- Marey
Silence Is Golden -- If that were true, which I do not allow, well, except in special
cases, then I shouldn't write you a personal, and I find you too personally annoying
to forego that pleasure. -- Baabra Lammont
Gold Cache -- I'll find it, never fear! I'll enlist the aid of a future teammate,
the Nose who Knows, to sniff it out, and then I'll dig it up and chew on it. So
there! -- Fangs Ardente
Talk about essence of ordinary, the Convicted Thief is it. -- Cris Croft
Wow, Goldwater lost that election by a landslide! -- Jorja and the Punny Animals
