DM 72 DRAGONHEAD (turn 240): TORANS ULRIK of MIDDLE WAY 9 (Jorja, mgr.) SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly TALCAMA games. Former top team SEA DOGS was unseated this week as CENTER FOR OLDS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 2-3-0 record for the round. Did only my eyes note the 3-1-1 record which SHEPHERDS managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw challengers! BARNEY caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested HELLFIRE and was awarded 13 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, CARBONATED MILK put down MEOUSA, causing her to lose 4 points of recognition in the process. Not for nothing has JAMESON in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. 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 TALCAMA. TALCAMA, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy guilds is CENTER FOR OLDS, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels. Apparently the stalwarts of RYAN'S HENCHMEN are catching the bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. For some warriors honor is not important--only empty victory. See, gladiators, how A'S SPECIAL BLEND of SHEPHERDS challenged down 18 points to DOC TURTLE. The weight of the challenge fell hard upon DOC TURTLE and predictably she was defeated by A'S SPECIAL BLEND. This is how to arouse the anger of an entire guild! Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! 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 TALCAMA. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JAMESON 4067 18 17 1 101 RYAN'S HENCHMEN (133) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -HARBOR MASTER 10008 13 5 0 111 SEA DOGS (224) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -LIGHTHOUSE KEEPER 10031 8 0 0 81 SEA DOGS (224) CHATROOMMATE 10034 12 10 0 72 CENTER FOR OLDS (108) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BEDDER 10043 13 8 2 65 CENTER FOR OLDS (108) -PETE 8637 6 3 0 65 SHEPHERDS (252) -BABY ON BOARD 10078 6 0 0 64 SEA DOGS (224) CARBONATED MILK 10036 12 10 1 62 CENTER FOR OLDS (108) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME A'S SPECIAL BLEND 9575 12 19 0 55 SHEPHERDS (252) BARNEY 10085 9 8 0 52 SHEPHERDS (252) MEOUSA 9757 9 14 0 51 DEVIL'S DEN (682) LUCIFER 9758 10 13 3 46 DEVIL'S DEN (682) HELLFIRE 9759 10 13 0 43 DEVIL'S DEN (682) -CRUSHING BRATZ 9153 4 4 0 40 NEXT GENERATION (547) SATAN 9756 5 19 0 39 DEVIL'S DEN (682) -DERRY DARLIN 10093 3 4 0 38 RYAN'S HENCHMEN (133) DOC TURTLE 10136 3 3 0 37 CENTER FOR OLDS (108) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HADES 9755 1 23 0 32 DEVIL'S DEN (682) -R-1 9490 3 2 0 25 NEXT GENERATION (547) -EDDY 10120 2 0 0 25 SEA DOGS (224) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -CRUSH THE DOCTOR 9585 3 2 0 24 NEXT GENERATION (547) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SARAH 10143 2 0 1 22 SHEPHERDS (252) RUTH 10121 6 3 0 21 SHEPHERDS (252) GURGLES 10111 4 6 0 18 CENTER FOR OLDS (108) -FUNKMASTER FLEX 6913 4 5 0 17 HIP HOP HEROES (511) -THE DUBLINER 10107 1 3 0 6 RYAN'S HENCHMEN (133) -RED ALERT 10125 0 2 0 6 HIP HOP HEROES (511) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
