DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Well, what a pleasant surprise this is. Youngest Duelmaster in Solven's history at
your service courtesy of Judge. Well done, o master of strategy. I can only hope
you get another bloodfeud through so that I have a chance to sit up here one more
turn.
Best of luck in Solven on the new year, all. Good to see Mr. Freeze actually post a
personal ad last turn. Get off of your cold lazy butt and post a few more.
Well, I am off to the training grounds to get in a few extra practice sessions in
anticipation of this turn's bloodfeud. Best of luck.
-- Smelly
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! Hey
everybody, watch out for JOHN ROBERTS, who flew up 14 points in the rankings after
mashing BENITO CHATTE like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a
basher in the top ten was DONNETTA, who dropped 10 points after a disappointing (to
say the least) bout with JAMMER. Unlike most arenas, SMELLY managed to get his
challenge off against the 16-17-1 BROOKS AND DUNN. In front of all the crowds,
BROOKS AND DUNN took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I give the bum two weeks.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.
Here is other news that is of note. Did you hear that CONSPIRACY INC. was most
avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of CONSPIRACY INC.'s
warriors, I'm not surprised! And you guys like to boo me? Well, unsling your
rasberries, cause KELLUMBO'S KIDS beats feet every time CONSPIRACY INC. smiles at
them. Try farming, eh? Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, BROOKS AND
DUNN would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win. In a
touching display by a 'touched' warrior, D.O.A. DOMINANCE went after ZEBROE, who was
higher by 22 points. Well, when the dust settled, D.O.A. DOMINANCE was subdued by
ZEBROE.
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! There's got to be more reason
for the sending of TRADER JACK to the Dark Arena than his record (3-1-0). Anybody
got any ideas DROP THE LEASH? Congrats to BROOKS AND DUNN for revenging the death of
his teammate (but more importantly, feeding SMELLY a bit of dirt). 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 SOLVEN 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 real, and its been fun, but it hasn't been real fun...-- The
Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Well, Judge. As you read this, we will both know how our first turn of our little
contest went. For your sake, I certainly hope it went better for you than last turn.
-- Kellumbo
Supply Side -- I can only imagine how embarrassing that must have been for you. --
Smelly
Oh Well -- That about covers it. But thanks for the skills. I don't see that many
all at once very often. -- Zebroe the grateful
Donnetta -- Oh, one of those tough broads, eh? Well...darn. -- Chaz Ducker
Well, why NOT? Shifty eyes go with a shifty, untrustworthy personality. I didn't
like him. -- Benito Chatte

Just a reminder to all you online type people. It is much appreciated if you send
your personals in PLAIN TEXT, rather than HTML or formatted text. HAL, in his
infinite wisdom, doesn't DO formatting, which means having to unsnarl your personal
ads from bunches of extraneous...stuff. So, if your e-mailer has a plain text
option, let it be your friend. -- Ed.
P.S. Sometimes it's the formatted text which makes ads go astray. Not often, but
sometimes.
