DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Sir Licksalot, I find your personal habits disgusting and unhygienic. Probably
pathological, too. Maybe even psycho-pathological. So stop doing it!
And don't you DARE cough up a hairball here!
Harandur
SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly CLIFFHOME games. Former top team JINDA-BAN was
unseated this week as SEA DOGS moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot with a
3-0-1 record for the round. Fortune did not smile upon ARENA FELINES this time out
who this turn suffered a fall into 8th position in the wake of a 0-1-0 round.
Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week
SEA DOGS went 3-0-1 to move up 3 in the rankings. ZIPPO caught the eye of many in
the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested MOSQUITO and was awarded 22
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ZIPPO put down
MOSQUITO, causing her to lose 19 points of recognition in the process. The city has
turned out in honor of WALDO, for with his arena victory he may now lay claim to the
highest position in the city! Informants "close" to the city champion have told me
that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city CLIFFHOME. CLIFFHOME, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of
thy guilds is JINDA-BAN, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels.
Apparently the stalwarts of BOY O'S are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot but
expect competition from those below. WALDO take warning! You have more than a few
enemies in CLIFFHOME.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. The warrior's path is harsh. For
mediocrity there is but one reward--death. This past week MARIO, at 5-7-0, departed
CLIFFHOME forever. Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena
there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
The girls are as pretty in CLIFFHOME as ever I remembered them....and the
fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of
a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle
walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.--

Waldo -- You're too tall to be a boy, even an O boy. Better take shrinking
treatments. -- Mosquito
P.S. The most reliable one involves soaking in hot water and being beaten with
sticks. I'll help.
Hello Kitty -- Good-BYE, Kitty. Please! -- Ballou Ys
I don't say I wouldn't have hurt the Captured Orc, because I WOULD have if he'd just
stood still a minute longer. As it is, all I did was tag him with my bumper, barely
a nudge. Bah. -- Articulate Lori
Crooked Shipwright -- Do you build crooked ships? You know, like the crooked house
that the crooked man lived in. -- Van Chevie
