Me and Sazerac managed to get our invites at the same time. Don't know if I should've gotten one but I suppose inviting us at the same time saved the messengers a trip. Both Sazerac and I just got back from the winter tourney were we failed completely. Sazerac's failure was expected--he's a piker after all--but I think I should have done a lot better. I think the Lion King and Axazoh managed to pull of TV's, though, so congrats to them! Now, we're off to the Free Blades arena on the Isle where we will be fighting along with Feel the Buzz. Since our manager still has plans for us he's reluctant to give out our numbers, favorites, etc. Let's just say that we're the two best warriors he's ever graduated. I won't be defending the throne this turn since Bartender has decided to send us both to the Dark Arena. So, I guess one of the three (3!) prippers at the top will be your next duelmaster. I hope I will manage to get my 13th consecutive win before leaving, but we'll see. Good luck on the sands to you all! Scapa SPY REPORT Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for MURSKA. MVP award for SECOND WATCH? SEA DOGS' proud of him after beating TAMRA KAI and getting 19 points. Talk about yer big time losers! LORD SNOW got smashed by OBAN, and lost 11 points! The Duelmaster isn't going to stop just cause she's Number One! HIGH ELF knows this. He was Dark Arena Challenged by the Duelmaster. This Duelmaster is like something else! SCAPA stopped HIGH ELF dead in his tracks! Who was the wiseguy that said MURSKA's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Dragon's Hangover? Don't look at me! So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these really neat Spyreports can it? The warriors of URBAN JUNGLE must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? Hhmph! What kind of warriors are ON THE ROCKS? URBAN JUNGLE, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation! Can SEA DOGS' ABEL BROWN be more popular than me? He was challenged the most, but is that really the same? DECEMBRE must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. She challenged KAILIE RHINN. 8 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought DECEMBRE showed great skill and promise when she defeated KAILIE RHINN. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give it a break? Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!! SCAPA returns from the Dark Arena, maybe a "little upset" at hers ON THE ROCKS teammates... Hey! Quit laughing! Just because SAZERAC had 15-10-1 was no reason for ON THE ROCKS to send him to the Dark Arena! Stop it! Like, who is this guy??? ABEL BROWN gets sent to the Dark Arena, battles BANDIT PRINCE, and returns to tell of it!!! I bet SEA DOGS manager is surprised! 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'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out!

There appears to be another PR going for the stylemaster title now, though. Argh! -- St Magdalene Abel Brown -- It's just sad when I can't even beat one of your style. But, at least, you're one of the better specimens. -- Oban Second Watch -- It feels right that you are my last opponent in basic since you were the last warrior to beat me in basic. Good luck to you! -- Scapa Hammerhead -- I have a feelings this arena will be dominated by you and your stable mates for quite a while now. -- Sazerac Kailie Rhinn -- Your whole team seems unbeatable these days. -- Banff St Magdalene -- Hard luck for you. One more fight and I'm out of here, ending our long competition. I know I will leave the stylemistressship in good hands, though. -- Tamra Kai P.S. Just for you: 13-11-8-13-17-7-15 LS low/mod riposte tactic. Banff -- Does this mean you're crashed? Not an encouraging image. -- Kailie Rhinn Beggars. Oh, well, it's a win. -- Tarran O'Harec P.S. To have lost would have been seriously embarrassing. I make a rude face and gesture, which editorial prudery does not permit me to describe, at the Embezzling Scribe. -- Kelly Gall The Convicted Thief is boring. -- Dinnian Our congratulations to Scapa and Sazerac. -- Jorja and the Children of Llyr LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS SCAPA butchered HIGH ELF in a 1 minute bloody Dark Arena fight.
