So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. It seems the training can make the difference, as WEIRD STUDENTS is pushed out of top team by HOUSE JHEREG, who came from 2nd with a 5-0-0 this turn. And let's see, CHALER fought CONVICTED ASSASSIN and gained 10 points and contributed to HOUSE JHEREG's 5-0-0. PADRIAG has lost to VILMOS, falling 1 points, while helping make CHILDREN OF LLYR a 1-4-0 turn. And all eyes were on LOFTIS this turn as it ascended to the throne of Duelmaster. MURSKA has a new victor! By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The Victory Tavern? I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher friend of mine assures me this is true. Well, sports fans, take notice that SELENE from ERRATA was MURSKA's most challenged warrior this turn. A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to be true. We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude. I like this place, MURSKA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. Who could ask for more? Well, I'm burning daylight here in MURSKA and I've a long road ahead of me. Happy Trails.

Palug gets a lot of response to his razzle-dazzle, but *I* am still the truly popular one. -- Oisin Two-three-one, with Palug as Duelmaster and Mara Kiera as killer? I'm seriously not believing this. There are so many things *wrong* with this. -- Oisin the disturbed Sweet Samantha -- Sorry about that. Really. I didn't mean to kill you, just to defeat you. -- Mara Kiera LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS READY was barely slain by BLACK ORC in a 2 minute Dark Arena fight.

Seam (DM 20) will be re-opening soon as a no-tourney DM arena! If you enjoy arena play without tournament interference, this arena is for you! Only rookie teams may enter this arena, and all managers must sign the "no-tourney" pledge. Turn 0 is due on May 4 (overviews only) and Turn 1 is due on May 18. To avoid confusion, all old inactive teams which were in Seam have travelled to Mazgourrah (DM 77). Seam is the newest arena to join the no-tourney group of arenas and will process on opposite weeks with Shadowspire (DM 81), the original no-tourney arena. Other no- tourney arenas include Telorinthe (DM 83), a slow arena, and Storm Rock (DM 107), for ADM warriors. Join in the fun! Send in your new rollup along with the pledge soon so you can get in on the ground floor of this new arena! ******************************************************************************** NO-TOURNEY ARENA PLEDGE * I pledge that I will not send warriors from this team to a tournament, nor will I use a tournament prize on a warrior from this team. * I pledge to run a full team when I run turns in this arena.
