DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I think it's a pretty good guess that somebody, the handicapper for choice,
hates you, Dondric. That was not a good match for you. You probably noticed?
Chucker Istta
SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
SOLVEN brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, KELLUMBO'S KIDS, since
MIDDLE WAY 15 took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course,
we're all terribly impressed to see HOTL MUSCHEL win a fight and gain 20 points,
terribly. And it's out with the old, in with the new, as JEROME takes the Title and
last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes,
kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights?
Skill? Ha!
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. What's
the big D? DROP THE LEASH was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered...
grumble... mumble... curse... And it looks like KELLUMBO'S KIDS avoided them the
most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. DOLBY JOSSEL
was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or
feared? Heh, heh. And we have ANTHON in a challenge, going down 13 points for the
fight. Guess what? I thought ANTHON showed great skill and promise when he was
defeated by DOLBY JOSSEL. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. We're all going to die in the end, so why
worry if the fate catches up with you sooner that later?
What does the SOLVEN arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. Paste
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide

PERSONAL ADS
Oh, heck. Drat. I never did feel comfortable with kung-fu, and with me losing to
the Kung-Fu Master, I probably never WILL. Darn. -- Io Oldend
Jerome -- Gosh, why am I not surprised at how that came out? You're a tough biscuit.
-- Dolby Jossel
Lipstick -- All over my collar, good! That'll make somebody jealous! -- Chawlie
Istta
Petite Sirah -- You know, I could've gone all day without that happening and been
happy with it. -- Ghost of Garbin Mooris
P.S. Don't you be thinking you're setting a precedent with that, kid.

CALLING ALL THUGS, BRUTES, OGRES, QUARTER HALF WITS, SHALLOW HALBERD ENTHUSIASTS AND
MAUL RATS: Since the Bashing style has often been maligned in the forums, it is time
to give the style a little tough love with the following concept: An ALL-BASHER
arena. The rules are simple--enter the arena as a rookie basher. That's it. RSI
said I need to get 20 managers on board and I'm about half way there. If you are
interested in taking part, PM me in the forums or email me: chase at accesspr.com
and put D2 in the subject header.

ATTENTION EVERYONE -- In March I am going to do manager lists for all arenas. This
is part of my ongoing and undoubtedly largely futile attempt to get my lists
organized. If you think I might not know who you are or if you think I might and
you'd rather I not share that information, let me know this month! You can e-mail
me at Sue at solberg dash mathews dot com (replacing the at, dash and dot with
appropriate characters. You can send a diplo to The Saint. You can put an ad in
the newsletter. Semaphore doesn't work so well, nor does telepathy. -- The Saint,
keeper of lists
