DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Last turn's column:
It looks like Kellumbo did a little better in the second turn of our stable's
contest with him. It is all tied up at four wins apiece. Interesting strategy
downchallenging Capital Punishment. Are you really that afraid of him that you are
willing to give up a potential win to keep him from winning? As for me, I will be
graduating next turn if I keep the throne. Good luck to my challenger!
Your Duelmaster,
Brooks and Dunn
This turn's column:
Even when you teamed up on me, Brooks and Dunn, I was too much for you!
That's amazing. *I* don't know how I did it.
Zebroe
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in SOLVEN this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. And let's see, BIFF STREICHER fought FROZEN FANNY
and gained 15 points and contributed to MEDIEVAL CHAOS' 3-2-0. FROZEN FANNY has lost
to BIFF STREICHER, falling 12 points, while helping make JUST CHILLIN a 1-4-0 turn.
We should ask SMELLY about the thrill of victory, and what being the new Duelmaster
does for a warrior, he's now the one to ask. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I
hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Victory Tavern until
they win. Maybe?
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. I also notice that the MEDIEVAL CHAOS stable
was the most avoided team this turn. Come on SOLVEN, what are you afraid of? And
guess who avoided MEDIEVAL CHAOS stable the most? Believe it or not, it was
KELLUMBO'S KIDS. Anyone surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was
MEDIEVAL CHAOS' warrior CEPACOL. More fighters challenged him than challenged the
Duelmaster! In a fit of brilliance or of stupidity (hard to say sometimes), SCIMITAR
challenged GRANDPA RAT today, facing a 27 difference in recognition. And though
SCIMITAR lost to GRANDPA RAT, the valiant attempt earned him 3 worth of recognition.
Foolhardiness can sometimes pay. In a brave attempt, WAR FLAIL from WEAPONS
challenged up 21 points to fight DONNETTA from the KELLUMBO'S KIDS stable. WAR FLAIL
perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he was subdued by DONNETTA and ended up with
6 recognition points.
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. We'd like to remind certain teams
not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered
rude.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Well, I'm burning daylight here in SOLVEN and I've a long road
ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in SOLVEN again, farewell--

The Olympics have arrived!
The Mordanti Olympics, having been gone for six years, have returned to the Mordanti
Alliance, sponsored by Amicitia Primoris. Teams have competed against each other for
recognition and notoriety four times in the past. It is far past time for the fifth
Mordanti Olympics to be held. The Mordanti Olympics shall be held in the Mordant
arena (DM-1) from May 1st (T544) through Oct 30 (T557). There will be a
'registration period' lasting until T543, where teams will be allowed to register by
activating in Mordant and declaring their participation in the personals. Rules will
be posted in the Mordant arena (DM-1) newsletter no later than T543, but shall be
available online before then. An announcement will be made as to where they will be
posted. Prizes will be awarded to the winners.
