DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Back again for a final turn on Solven's throne. I am proud to graduate from
this fine arena. Zebroe, I appreciate the sentiments. I am not sure whether I am
the better warrior, but I have certainly been the luckier warrior. Sorry Kellumbo--
it looks like you will not get another shot at the throne since Eleanorth had an
untimely death. Eleanorth did not deserve it anyway since she already lost to me.
So I bid you all farewell. Protect Solven's traditions.
Your Duelmaster,
Lord Protector, Clint Eastwood
SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
SOLVEN. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! We now
have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. KELLUMBO'S KIDS now holds the
crown and they are betting they can keep it. It looks like the guys(?) at MEDIEVAL
CHAOS had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them in 4th place. I guess steroids
help! Hey everybody, watch out for FRANZ JOSEF, who flew up 22 points in the
rankings after mashing FROZEN FANNY like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. Ya
know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. BROOKS AND DUNN was
overcame by ZOOIE and drops 15 points. It's a proud day for the MEDIEVAL CHAOS
stable, as their warrior, CRIMSON WONDER, ascended the Duelmaster's throne. 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. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the
big, bad MEDIEVAL CHAOS? Big bad MEDIEVAL CHAOS. Big bad MEDIEVAL CHAOS. SOLVEN's
afraid of the big bad MEDIEVAL CHAOS. Tra la la la la! Okay, so I may not be funny,
but catch THE REPUBLICANS' act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft
at running from MEDIEVAL CHAOS. Well just about everybody wants a piece of BROOKS
AND DUNN, who was this week's most challenged warrior.
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Remember: alliances are great, but try and take your ally
in the arena with you and see what happens.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian,
but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. Its been real, and its been fun,
but it hasn't been real fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Judge -- So you think you know more about this game than I do eh? How about a
friendly competition then? Here is what I propose: Starting with the first turn of
the new year, the first of us to compile 25 wins in Solven wins the contest. The
loser *must* Dark Arena the warrior of the winning manager's choice the following
turn. What do you say? Time to put up or shut up. -- Detective Kellumbo
Supply Side -- A duet? I didn't know we were singing a duet. I wasn't ready for
that. -- Zebroe
P.S. I'm not good at the 'carrying a tune' part. So if you can do that, I'll just
do the rhythm, okay?
Brooks and Dunn -- What is this, some kind of investment scam? I don't do
investments. -- Zooie
P.S. Nothing to invest.
Smelly -- Phew! Rotten. Try clean socks. -- Kurlouie
Tammy -- Don't listen to those bums in the stand. There is NO need for you to go to
the Dark Arena. -- Arishtarte, glad to see someone she can defeat
Ed. -- It should be obvious! You don't trust anybody at all. That's the way to work
it. -- Kurlouie
That sounds awfully tiring. -- Ed., already tired enough
DK -- Apologies for the kill. My guys for some reason are killing a lot despite
having non-killing strategies. At least it looks like you got a decent replacement.
I'll be expecting the bloodfeud. -- Huckle Cat
Kellumbo -- Contrary to your assertion, Clint Eastwood did not avoid your team for
the last two turns. -- Judge
Lord Protector Clint Eastwood -- What is this whole thing with the lands? Surely you
can see that it is not fiscally responsible. It's the sort of thing a democrat would
do--taking lands from people who have it and giving it to someone else (who is
leaving town) on a whim, very nearly. Ah, and I bet the people pushing for the
distribution of lands are waiting on the edge of town to "take them off your hands"
at some nominal sum, so they can do it all OVER again. In fact, a scandal to make
Teapot Dome look penny ante. Well, I am having none of that! -- Malakato Marrotinis,
Arena Administrator
5 October 2005
To those once of Willaf -- It's time to come back to the sands. I'm back,
exclusively at Willaf.... -- Kurd the Vivisectionist, Your Better
12 October 2005
Magic Man -- You are a fellow Canadian, are you not? Where do you hail from? I live
in Kelowna, B.C. -- Maximillian, 8,13, 28, 47, 54
