What do we have here.... dogs peeing on fire hydrants, dogs spawning from the devil, dawgs that are lucky and defy the odds, dogs that are man's best friend... and me, the one and only dog with multiple personalities sitting on the throne for multiple turns... don't you like how that all works out? I've simply lost count how many times I've been perched up here while wearing these purple robes, and for some dog-gone reason The Plague has decided they don't want to play with the big dog of this fair city. I'm once again challenging The Wait and Angel of Arkham.... will they decide to show their decrepit hides this turn? Now come on... everyone in unison say this with me: Until next turn.... Same doggy time, Same doggy place, Same doggy channel, Your Duelmaster, Skitzoid Snoopy (card holding member of LOL) SPY REPORT Good day, in KATI-TEI a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor. So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. It seems the training can make the difference, as WANDERERS is pushed out of top team by DA DOG POWNDAZ, who came from 3rd with a 5-0-1 this turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and SKITZOID SNOOPY remains KATI-TEI's top warrior for another turn. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Welcome Wench uses trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle! The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the THE STORM FRONT stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on KATI-TEI, what are you afraid of? And avoiding THE STORM FRONT more than any other team we find THE PLAGUE. KATI-TEI, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports fans, take notice that BALIN CHANE from WANDERERS was KATI-TEI's most challenged warrior this turn. In a brave attempt, UBBA-SATHLA from THE PLAGUE challenged up 19 points to fight MARLIN REEVE from the WANDERERS stable. UBBA-SATHLA perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he won victory over MARLIN REEVE and ended up with 66 recognition points. A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to be true. Is it really true that KATI-TEI has more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask... Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare to fight bravely. Well, I'm burning daylight here in KATI-TEI and I've a long road ahead of me. Happy Trails.

I salute you! -- Wrolling Thunder P.S. Maybe we are the wave of the future! Skitzoid Snoopy -- No fair! Figured you had the edge in that one... but at least you could have taught me something. Sheesh! -- Mohnsoon Mayhem Friendly Constable -- Shouldn't you be out catching criminals?! -- Sue Nami No, he'll wait till tonight and join them in bars for a convivial drink. El Nino -- Bad boy! If you were my nino, I'd smack you on the behind for throwing a tantrum. -- Grimm Lurcher The Veteran Mercenary gave it a good try, though you'd think with all that effort he could have taught something. -- Balin Chane Sunbane -- Nah, I just use aloe, and I don't need it often anyway. -- Marlin Reeve Requiem -- Not for either of us, which is good. We can't spare anybody. -- Samara How can you call a guy a "scribe," trustworthy or otherwise, when he specializes in cutting inscriptions in stone? -- Kohoutek LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS EL NINO viciously subdued BALIN CHANE in a 2 minute master's Challenge fight.
