DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Another awesome fight to retain my title! Another turn here or in the
challenger champions and I should receive my invite. Hebee, it was a brave
challenge, but alas my skill was superior. Luck next time, perhaps Nutcracker will
give it a shot? Not much else going on. I want to welcome Perry Palagrino and
Steven Scimitar to our fine stable, as they will be continuing on the legacy that is
EAGLES CLAW. I wish all success as long as they are not on the other side of my
blade.

SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
CLIFFHOME brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, ALL FINESSE, since
EAGLES CLAW took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course,
we're all terribly impressed to see HEBEE win a fight and gain 16 points, terribly.
Tsk, tsk, HEBEE beat HARI CANE and HARI CANE lost 13 points. You're breakin' my
heart. And if variety is the spice of life, CLIFFHOME may be getting bland, as
EAGLE'S NEST stays top dog in the city. The Choking Ogre, humph! I've tasted better
ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From CLIFFHOME's trash dumps?
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.
CLIFFHOME, I am losing what little hope I had in you. EAGLES CLAW the most avoided
team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And who led the way in this mass act
of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was TACTICAL NUKES. Ha ha ha ha!
Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, TEDIOUS TED was this turn's most challenged warrior.
Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if
the fate catches up with you sooner that later?
What does the CLIFFHOME arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Just wait 'till next time I show
up here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll
need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
Dingil Bill -- My name is from the alternative grunge hard rock band System of a
Down. It does make sense; its all in the interpretation. -- System of a Down
Lonesome Truck -- Hopefully you will get good insurance money for your loss. --
Tedious Ted
Floyd -- Don't disappear! Three turns is not enough. -- Talon Volksie
Nobgoblin -- You know, *I* should laugh at *you*. I'll bet that would throw you off
your stroke, what with being the kind of thing you're not used to, right? And the
gods know, SOMETHING had better throw you off your stroke! You're too mean for me.
-- Korribie
P.S. Remember, if you kill me, I'll retire in a huff and not teach you a single
thing more! I promise that.
Jammer -- I don't see why the arenamaster stopped me just as I was reaching for the
WD-40. I'd have gotten you unjammed, I bet. -- Dingil Bill
P.S. Do you suppose I can blame that loss on the arenamaster? After all, if he
hadn't stopped me, and I had gotten out my trusty spray can of WD-40....
2 + 2 = 4 -- It does NOT. That's only in special cases. Sometimes it equals 22! --
Hari Cane
P.S. And if you don't add them very carefully, keeping everything straight, you may
get 3.99 or 5.01, so there! I mean, these dogmatic pronunciamentos are just not
true.
System of a Down -- What the heck kind of name is that? What does it mean? -- Clock
O'Dial and Inquiring Minds want to Know!
Sui Generis -- You see what it is. Once I was a big truck and could shoulder my way
through any crowd. Now I'm just a little thing, and everybody pushes me out of the
way. Life is so peculiar. -- Runabout
Talon Volksie -- Your apology is unnecessary (this IS a Delarquan arena) but
appreciated. But..."Floyd B Rick"? I could've sworn the driver that got away was
Tedious Ted! -- Nick and Jinda-Ban
P.S. While the new Runabout doesn't have the hauling capacity of the Truck, it's a
lot easier to park. A decent, though hardly remarkable (except in being not totally
awful) roll-up. These days, a "decent" roll-up is almost remarkable in itself!
Talon -- (pouting) -- Dingil Bill
31 October 2003
Come one, come all, to the greatest contest in Alastari! The Third Annual Turf
War will be in North Fork (DM 47) starting in about 6-7 turns.... C'mon and get your
team some experience, and get declared!
More info available in North Fork's newsletter.
Bloody Sands. -- Asmo Dius, TCB
13 November 2003
Let it be known far and wide, that the Warrior TUM 18-7380, the Champions Runner-Up
for the recent Tournament, is managed by none other than Shocking Toad. I named this
fabulous warrior after my friend and mentor, TUM, a.k.a. Don! Sorry TUM didn't get
me my first TC; however, a runner-up with all those sandbaggers is pretty impressive,
if I do say so myself. -- Shocking Toad, The Manager
13 November 2003
All -- This is to announce that I am no longer a member of the Vendetta Cartel
Alliance. I have enjoyed my time there, and I've made some great friends. Their
company will be missed, but they will endure. I wish them well. -- Apex
