DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Trust me, I'm surprised I still hold onto the throne as well!
My challenge went through to Sgt. Rock and he gave me quite the workout. Took nine blows to drop him, five of them critical. It would be less work to cut down a sequois with a dull axe! I guess you don't get to 34 wins if you can't take a beating.
I'll try him again this turn with a slightly different strategy to see what differences it might make. Also, would like to grab that Chartered Recognition Leader title.
Salut!
Somehow still your Duelmaster,
Vileness
SPY REPORT
Welcome CHIMLEVTAL. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights
have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Phhbltt! Too much
drinking and too little dodging gave USEFUL WEAPONS a 0-2-0! I got a good laugh out
of it! Some people say I ramble too much, I don't say anything relevant. I repeat
myself. I ramble. Well MILITARY MAYHEM moved up 1, to 6th. What's with BAKERS 7?
It actually beat WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U!'s POWERSLAVE, and walked away with 23 more
points from the fight. Major screwup at USEFUL WEAPONS. SHOVEL lost 13 points to
CAPTAIN MARVEL. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe SHOVEL will provide more easy
wins... I'm sure CHIMLEVTAL is excited about BISHAMON, the new Duelmaster from
AVENGERS. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Wouldn't it be
nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses
of convicted prisoners.
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... CHIMLEVTAL thinks
ASSASSIN NATION and their 471-481-66 is too much! If at first you don't succeed,
give up... Management must be dealin', as the boys at MILITARY MAYHEM ain't reelin'!
ASSASSIN NATION's mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged
warrior, SEAGULL! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? CONFUSED looked pretty sick and surprised when he learned
ASSASSIN NATION is sending him to the Dark Arena! Whadd'he expect with a 5-6-1?
Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You young rapscallions, take
note!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. Are you
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Who broke my wand!!! -- Smithy
I need some useful useless weapons! -- Smithy
I feel de-weaponized! I blame Assur. -- Smithy
Vileness -- Well fought ! congrats for taking the throne, and keeping hold of it ! --
Litter Blaster and La Guillotine
Wand -- Damn, that was so easy ! Come on, how did you even get that record? Fighting
only TPs, WoS and a couple NPCs, maybe ? -- Litter Blaster
Haomaru -- Yet a little more payback for Wickedness! The good news is this will be
the last turn I will be able to pile on. -- Resentment
Smith -- It turns out that a Frying Pan was not a weapon worthy of you forge.
Hopefully, you are able to make something better once he has been melted back down. --
Swift Demise
Sgt. Rock -- You can take it! Luckily, I can deal it too. I'm challenging again as
you're still the top-rated challenger and you teach well too. -- Vileness
Major Snafu -- Not a surprising result, given the style match-up. Until later. --
Hatred
As for Confused. I am confused as to why I didn't DA him sooner!
Shovel -- Ouch! -- Bloodthirst
