                             Notes from the arena champ.

Hey, Belinda, what's a Military member got to do to get some respect around here. 
Can't even get recognized as a Duelmaster in your spyreport?!?! That's it, I'm outta 
here. Bidding this rinky-dink town adieu.

                                          -- Major Disaster
                                             Military Mayhem
                                             Duelmaster of Chimlevtal

P.S. For those who care, a 11-11-7-17-21-10-7 Slasher, EP, HI/VL, Learns Decise, No 
Tactic. Mode bases except for +1 Decise and a note about being hosed in Defence.

                                      SPY REPORT

    We'll start with the tourney news, which is not quite as new news as the fights 
today, but it is still very current.  Unfortunately, it is less exciting than the news 
for the turn.  Only 10 warriors entered from Chimlevtal and only one did better than 
even.  CAPT. AMERICA of MILITARY MAYHEM went 4-3.  No deaths or kills.  Chimlevtal's 
total record in the tourney was 16-30.  Pretty sad. Pretty bad.  But it makes it easy 
to look forward to next time.
    Next, a response to MAJOR DISASTER.  With a name like that, do you really expect 
recognition to be given correctly?  DISASTER did manage to avoid disaster, beating 
High Elf in the Dark Arena!  This time, I'll get the Duelmaster right! The top 
contenders this time were SGT. ROCK and COLD WIND.  They faced each other in a 
spectacular (down challenge) from SGT. ROCK!  I didn't know Crip allowed his warriors 
to do that!  Well played, Crip!  SGT. ROCK beat COLD WIND in 3 minutes and capped off 
a spectacular turn for MILITARY MAYHEM.  5-0-1.  MAJOR DISASTER exiting the arena with 
a win in the Dark Arena.  4 Awards.
    Speaking of perfection, the top perfect start warriors sat out this time. They are 
probably hoping for extra respect and recognition in my fine columns.  I'll note that 
they exist, but I won't speak their names until they win or lose again on the sands.
    FLOYD'S BOOKIE, in spite of not fighting, graduates next turn after going 3-3 in 
challengers.  All ten fighting styles saw action.  HAOMARU, who has had a very rough 
start to his career, was the most popular warrior in yet another loss, this time to 
SUNKIST in 7 minutes.  43 warriors fought for 11 teams in 4 DA's, 1 BF, 9 challenges, 
and and 11 matchups (which included 3 stand ins).  No warriors died except in the Dark 
Arena.  I guess you all aren't trying hard enough.  CHARLES GOODNIGHT was the most 
challenged warrior. BAD BOY BAKLAVA overpowered CHARLES GOODNIGHT in a 1 minute 
mismatched Bloodfeud duel.
    D. Noble: I'll make you a deal.  Kill CHARLES next turn with your Lord Protector 
and I'll recognize him in a way I've never done before at the beginning of the next 
report!
    To close, I'll note that 30 avoids were issued by 16 warriors.  The ever unpopular 
AFTER MIDNIGHT was avoided the most, 3 of the 6 from HOGWART'S STUDENTS.

    -- Belinda, the error prone spy mistress who is rushing this report out same day 
          to get mail out faster.  You should all love me!
