Greetings all, Glad to be here, even though it won't last long as I will take a few weeks off to enjoy my stay in Chimlevtal a little longer... It was close against Arson last turn, but that made the win even nicer. Good luck to you this turn, no doubt the throne will be fiercely contested again. -- BRUTALIX SPY REPORT A tourney happened since the last turn. As is usually the case, our arena did not send very many. But since it is one of the bigger events of gladiatorial combat, I feel compelled to report on our results. The good news: 3 teams sent warriors. DEEDERS BULLIES sent 3, NUMBERS GAME and JUST DESSERTS sent 2 each. All total, our warriors went 12-18-0-1. Not very pretty. The best of the bunch was FROG-EYE SALAD, who went 4-3. Some of you (and you know who you are) need to step it up (really, you didn't even send a single warrior from 31?!?). Get your butts in gear and start representing Chimlevtal! Bring some success (if not glory) to our great arena so that people will start coming back to see what the excitement is about!!! I will commend the three managers who did represent us and I can only hope that next time, you have days to remember! One last note: All Chimlevtal's warriors were in Rookies, Apprentices, and Initiates. Only one team had a turn which is worth writing about. The rest of you all had mediocre turns at best (and there were many less than that best). But La Guillotine's crew... 4-0 for the turn, 12-0 for the last three turns, and 4 awards. The 4 awards seems especially insulting to me because he'll only get credit for 2 of them. When someone has a turn like that and everyone else has crummy turns, we should just commandeer one of the awards to the team that did so well! Then WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U would get that ever coveted 5 awards! I also liked LG's move at the top! BRUTALIX sits out, causing all those non existent challenges by challenger champs that are sitting out of the action to be completely wasted, then takes the throne and earns his invite. The only piece missing was the downchallenge from FHTAGN to one of the other puds sitting in the Chumps class. Now THAT would have been a sight to behold! There were 22 avoids by 11 warriors. That is two each. I guess some of you know how to use the avoids (the down challenge being a mostly lost art). AVENGERS and THE OUTLAWS 4 each received 4 avoids (the most). The team avoiding the most?!? Not shockingly, the manager who uses the most of the tools available will often be the most successful. WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U sent 3 avoids to those two teams. 28 total warriors fought representing 7 teams. Only 8 styles were to be found on the sands, with Pikers and Lungers not seeing any action. I'm sure most of you managers missed the Chimlevtal Times article saying how over the last 30 years, lunger has consistently been one of the best styles for success. Or maybe you are all running shell corporations here in Chimlevtal for tax write offs. Wouldn't shock me! I know how the world works!!! And poor me stuck here with your cast offs. As good as LG has been recently, his precious 3-0 LITTER BLASTER is heading for trouble. 3-0 with 40 recognition is a good way to get killed by some old dinosaur (and we've got plenty of those to choose from!!!) DAMEON DARKHEART apparently wanted to win points (or maybe his low intellect finally got it - DCing works) with me by sending a 9 point downchallenge from OROKE STONEMAGUS to ADIOS AMIGO. A DC to a big FE warrior! Fishing for skills AND wins?!? I love it! I will close by noting that Lady Smith appears to also be 'seeing the light.' She has realized the Smithy is a deadbeat. If she had only listened to EVERYONE around her for the last few years, she could have come to her senses a long time ago, not invested so much into a relationship she really didn't want to be in, and maybe we wouldn't have had to listen to Smithy's drivel!!! I know the Consortium would not have let this go on but for Lady Smith's smooth management of politics amongst the Consortium leaders. Amazing what a Lady who knows how to use her assets can achieve in the world! I certainly know all about such things!!!! -- Belinda, Alastari's best spy-mistress DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FHTAGN 6516 18 23 1 99 WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U!
