DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
A welcome back to the Master Darque's Darque Angels. It looks like they will be
up here preaching from the throne very soon. In comparison, the Ducks are a little
wet under their feathers, and not really up to the task of taking on Angels. But a
duck never backs down, so we will do our best.

SPY REPORT
You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf
Modeen. I return to XOCHITHLAN once again! Some people say I ramble too much, I
don't say anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble. Well STEEL WOLVES 2 moved
up 1, to 4th. What's with BLACK GUARD? He actually beat THE MIDDLE WAY's SALOME
TORENE, and walked away with 24 more points from the fight. Major screwup at THE
MIDDLE WAY. SALOME TORENE lost 21 points to BLACK GUARD. Some new strategies,
perhaps? Maybe SALOME TORENE will provide more easy wins... Another fighter (MALICE
12-2-3) challenged another Duelmaster (PEKING DUCK 15-6-0). Life goes on. I can
barely restrain my enthusiam for DARQUE ANGELS' outstanding member, Duelmaster
MALICE. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow
fighters? Tough!
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. How well I know the feeling
of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, DUCKS UNLIMITED! In
my day, no team with a 183-124-13 would scare me off! What's the problem, THE
ROUGHRIDERS? What do people see in ULRIK VENN? His 13-14-0? THE MIDDLE WAY ain't
talkin', but he's got 53 points. I hate going to the effort of writing about the
kind of fights that SELAANE gets in. It fights people like GRAYDEN VALE, 14 points
below. I thought SELAANE showed great skill and promise when it was bested by
GRAYDEN VALE. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. How long have I been here? I got people to see,
places to go...
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. The end
of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book! Remember--a good
fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Bettina Chim -- Our barn-burning fights seem to be getting longer and longer. Any
more, and I might be considered overdone. -- Peking Duck
Desslock Cain -- There's more than one way for a duck to skin you. -- Duck With
Swords
Mahovlich -- Similar question, I'd ask Frank or Pete, but there's really only one
acceptable answer, so I won't bother asking. -- Scrooge McDuck
Grayden Vale -- It might be time to consider golfing season. -- Mighty Duck
Horvanth Irnde -- I knew I was beginning to feel a little too big for my britches. --
Howard the Duck
Morgana Black -- Well, that wasn't what I expected! I can tell you were all fired up
after your meeting. Or hungry. We had poutine at OUR meeting, which may have been a
mistake. -- Selaane
Scrooge -- Okay, admit it. You all used to play for the Mighty Ducks, didn't you?
Only hockey players can fight like this! -- Mahovlich
I went to the fights and a Hockey Game broke out?! -- NAIEI
Mastema -- That wasn't as fun as my first fight last time. Ouch, my groin! My leg!
my abdomen! My stomach! That wasn't fun at all, actually. -- Hakkinnen
Morgan Black -- Pas de quoi! -- Mahovlich
Peking Duck and the Ducks Unlimited -- Be assured that we do! But as we said to
another manager a few days ago, you're here for your manager's enjoyment, and if he
doesn't feel like writing you some personals, so be it. It isn't REQUIRED. -- Jorja
and the Middle Way
Lobo -- It is sad, but understandable, to see some of your old standbys go. Good
little spotlight (spitlight?). We bid farewell to Bash Artadi and Sylah Ventress. --
Jorja
Duck With Swords -- She says that pretty much describes HER Ski Mask. Especially the
"red all over" part. -- Bettina Chim
Scrooge McDuck -- Well, hand me some, and I'll help you count! -- Ulrik Venn
Selaane -- (smirk) -- Wovern Yansy
P.S. Actually, Smirk was on the Cheap Shots team here and graduated quite a while
ago. Just as well, he was maddening.
Koivu -- Nice for YOU, maybe, but *I* didn't want it. -- Horvanth Irnde
Howard the Duck -- Ah! Perfect. -- Horvanth Irnde
Peking Duck -- I had an appointment to get my hair done after the fights, and I
MISSED it because of you! -- Bettina Chim
P.S. You'd think I could have learned something gladiatorial during sixteen minutes,
but I find it hard to read the body language of a Duck.
Malice -- How MALICIOUS of you. -- Salome Torene
Israfel -- This is the working out of some kind of curse, isn't it? -- Wovern Yansy
Black Guard -- That wasn't luck, it was superior skill. -- Ulrik Venn
P.S. And possibly an input error on your part, but I don't mind.
The Fall Mail-In Tourney is DUE on the 30th of October and will run on November
2nd. Turns received later than the 30th may not get input.
