DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hail Arvat! I'm back and have some good news. For some reason I received my invite
early and I am off to continue my career in ADM!!! It's what I've been looking
forward to ever since my creation! My boss isn't really sure why I received the
early invite, but he's certainly not complaining! He says I will make a very good
Freshman class contender. So that's likely where you all will see me next. Wish me
luck!
This turn I fought Mesharr again and failed to one shot him. I expected him to come
back and take me out, but apparently my attack is now good enough that I am really
tough to defend against. It was a good fight. Though I am wondering why he didn't
teach me any riposte skills! I could have used a few.
I'm not challenging anyone this turn and I'll let fate decide who I fight. After
all, I am immortal now so death is no longer a concern!
I can't think of anything good to talk about and my teammates are throwing me a going
away party. So that is about all.
Fare thee well, Arvat!
Dread
Duelmaster
SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. ARVAT needs a spyreport." Oh, well. I don't wanna hurt
anybody's feelings or anything, but WAX HOSTILE really goofed with their 0-0-0. One
team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 1 after going 3-1-0. Keep it up,
BARN OF HORRORS! MVP award for ANGUISH? ANGELS OF PAIN's proud of him after beating
LAYLA and getting 18 points. Talk about yer big time losers! ARTEMIDORUS V got
smashed by DEE T. EMTER, and lost 11 points! This Duelmaster is like something else!
DREAD stopped MYSTIC MIRAGE dead in his tracks! Is the Duelmaster really being a
real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right? SARATOGA GLORY was the most
avoided team. Is a 191-109-18 record really that scary? Is there some deep dark
secret why ROMAN HEROES' been avoiding SARATOGA GLORY so much? Or is it just that
they're too scared? Can GEMSTONE BEASTS' GREATER VRULL be more popular than me? He
was challenged the most, but is that really the same? See if I ever talk to MARCUS
again! DELTA 88 was so low when He challenged he. Hhmph! Is this how ROMAN HEROES
advances, by having their members (MARCUS) fight people that are really below them
(DELTA 88)? GEMINI must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He
challenged THE INVISIBLE PIG. 9 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell
me.) I thought GEMINI showed great skill and promise when he defeated THE INVISIBLE
PIG. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. I hear THE REPUBLIC sent APOLLONIUS to the
Dark Arena. What, is that like not well-lit, or what? How cruel! THE REPUBLIC
heartlessly sent his to CYRUS certain fate in the Dark Arena. Is a 10-9-2 bad or
something? Hey! Quit laughing! Just because APPIUS had 11-6-1 was no reason for
CAESAR'S THUGS to send him to the Dark Arena! Stop it! Hey, warriors get killed by
other warriors, not by their manager sending them to the Dark Arena. What's wrong
with APPIUS' 11-6-1, CAESAR'S THUGS? What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?
I'd be out of a job, that's what!!!
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I gotta leave. ARVAT is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much! Its
been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Dee T. Emter -- That was an epic battle. I salute you, sir. Well done. -- Mountain
General
Greater Vrull -- I'm pretty stocked up on skills now. To beat a bagger like yourself
confirms this. -- Mystic Mirage
Gemini -- Thanks for the fight. I'm happy that I didn't kill you. The boss has been
trying to keep us from doing that lately. You should have given up earlier though.
-- Easter Guardian
Khalhums Dwarf -- Whoa! Thanks for all of those skills. I did enjoy using you as
target practice as well. We can match together, any time. -- War Eagle
Awe -- After I nailed you half way through the fourth minute I thought you would quit
for sure. I am impressed with your mettle. -- The Scouser
Dread -- Congrats on the invite. -- the Trainer
Mesharr -- Congrats on the invite. -- the Trainer
Layla -- Darn my inability to not get tired so quickly. I'll be inactive for a while
now. Time to wait until the Adepts tourney. -- Undead Duck
Ronalto Von Ron -- <SNAP, SNARL, DROOL!!!!!> MMMMMMMM Flesh!!!!! Next time I will
EAT YOU!!!!! <SNAP, SNARL, DROOL!!!!!>- Cannibalistic Cow
Ronalto Von Ron -- Please ignore the Cow. His blood lust is being contained for now.
-- Mad Max
Wrack'M -- If you can't see me, you can't hit me. -- the Invisible Pig
Maim'N Mamie -- Let's have a quarterstaff tourney. -- Cow Liche
All -- Dr. Frakenhen (should have been FraNKenhen) has passed us by. He was 11-17-6-
17-7-9-17 PR. I loved the numbers but when he came back hosed in parry and defense
and came back with little damage I knew his days were numbered. The name issue
should have been the first sign. Back to the drawing board. -- Mad Max
Apparently the Rumor of the Week guys were right a while back about half ogres coming
into the arena. Three replacements and the sizes were 17, 17, and 18. Impressive!
Lara -- You were very lucky my longsword broke. I want a rematch. -- Anguish (Who is
now creating a lot of Anguish by sticking around through 44 fights...)
Rumor of the Week: Word has it that some area novelty are thinking about pooling
resources and building rental villas north of the city. Property prices will soar!
17 July 2008
All -- Many of you know me and many more don't, but I will be scarce for a few
months. I am relocating, so look for my presence online! As my will, so mote it
be! -- Abraxis
