DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ahhh yes, here I sit once again. What a feeling of accomplishment to supposedly
fight my closest competitor (Venomous Concubine)? Boys, you best step up to the
plate. How does that make y'all feel, to know a computer generated warrior is better
than you! Hammer and friends, what a sad day on the Island! Don't really have
anyone to challenge beings The Greek Guy chose not to fight last turn. Hmmm, bad
matchup perhaps. We shall see who walks onto the sands with me.
Catlow
SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out NIYTYOLE ISLAND
to see what's new. THE SEWING CIRCLE like really fought hard to move up to 3rd from
7th. Way to go! MVP award for LADY WU? LUROCIANS II's proud of him after beating
STONE FACE HAMMER and getting 11 points. Talk about yer major upsets! STONE FACE
HAMMER's match with LADY WU cost him a loss of 9 points! Don't you think the
Duelmaster is being unfair? I think CATLOW should let KUNG-FU MASTER be Duelmaster
for a while, without fighting about it. I hear the top team insists all their
warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. Can SACKETT'S
& CO.'s CLINCH be more popular than me? She was challenged the most, but is that
really the same?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what?
(SUCCOTASH vs. BIG CASINO HAMMER, that is.) Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you
guys can do?
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Its
been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

Spaghetti -- This is some kind of trick, right? I say I'm allergic to wheat, and you
curl your lip and say you're a squash, and then you squash ME. Well, HA! I didn't
fall for it! -- Thimbell
Lonigan -- Well, darn. I didn't think you cared about that herd. After all, you
were late getting there. -- Tatharli
Maverick Hammer -- I thought your pappy told you not to take that kind of chances,
boy. -- Hofta Laugh
Clinch -- (sigh) Yes, you dropped your mountain on me. -- Tatharli
Well, I've found my other two slackers, and we'll see if we can get them out onto the
sands this time. Be gentle with them, they're fragile and stupid. -- Jorja

Due to requests, the Turf War IV will be postponed until turn 225 (approx May/June
2005). Sorry about the inconvenience. -- Baphomet, host of TW 4
12 January 2005
On Jhans turn number 476 (due on Feb. 16, 2005) the Second Annual kLk St. Valentine's
Massacre Kill Contest will begin. The rules are simple; the team with the most kills
on the last turn wins. Last year's winner was Shocking Toad. Can he repeat? Could
DOOMcorps crush all challengers? Will the kLk prevail? Or will you be the
independent manager to show that alliances aren't all that? Come on to Jhans and
let's find out!
Prizes are: 1st. Renaming of a Dark Arena monster and five roll-up
certificates or $25.00 deposited in your account.
2nd. Renaming of a Stand-In monster.
Come on and celebrate the Delarquan way!
