I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Bein' on top is great while it lasts, DA DOG POWNDAZ. But how many friends do you have now? What's with THE HAND OF DOG? He actually beat WANDERERS' SAMARA, and walked away with 23 more points from the fight. Major screwup at WANDERERS. SAMARA lost 14 points to THE HAND OF DOG. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe SAMARA will provide more easy wins... What a role model for KATI-TEI's young 'uns! THE WAIT becomes Duelmaster, but don't bother to fight no more! I'm sure KATI-TEI is excited about FIREHYDRANT DEFILER, the new Duelmaster from DA DOG POWNDAZ. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners. No matter the time or place, men will always duel. KATI-TEI thinks THE PLAGUE and their 388-344-24 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up... The bums at DA DOG POWNDAZ couldn't face the challenges from THE PLAGUE! No excuse for that! What do people see in ENGLISH BULLDOG? His 5-2-0? DA DOG POWNDAZ ain't talkin', but he's got 47 points. Maybe DA DOG POWNDAZ's FIREHYDRANT DEFILER is one of those guys who likes pain, or something. That's what he'll get next week, after challenging up 34 to GRIMM LURCHER. FIREHYDRANT DEFILER did pretty good last week in beating GRIMM LURCHER to get 24 points. Why did GRIMM LURCHER lose, you ask? Simple: he wasn't good enough. A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters don't accept this. The best do. Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty. Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt. All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf. Olaffighterwork and no play. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FIREHYDRANT DEFILER 4475 8 7 1 92 DA DOG POWNDAZ (111) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -THE WAIT 4382 31 17 0 131 THE PLAGUE (93) -DEVIL DOG 4479 11 4 0 120 DA DOG POWNDAZ (111) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MARLIN REEVE 4443 19 11 0 81 WANDERERS (329) GRIMM LURCHER 4432 19 17 0 80 WANDERERS (329) -UBBA-SATHLA 4438 11 11 0 77 THE PLAGUE (93) -DODO 4321 7 3 0 76 BIRDS (286) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -RED TENTACLE 4442 13 10 1 63 THE PLAGUE (93) WROLLING THUNDER 4468 6 7 1 63 THE STORM FRONT (109) OLD YELLER 4463 10 13 0 62 DA DOG POWNDAZ (111) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THE HAND OF DOG 4493 6 2 1 53 DA DOG POWNDAZ (111) ENGLISH BULLDOG 4494 5 2 0 47 DA DOG POWNDAZ (111) -N'KAI 4477 5 6 0 43 THE PLAGUE (93) SAMARA 4465 10 12 0 42 WANDERERS (329) TORE NAYDO 4481 8 5 2 37 THE STORM FRONT (109) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -VULTURE 4259 4 0 0 33 BIRDS (286) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WHYTE SQUALL 4508 2 0 0 17 THE STORM FRONT (109) -WAY OF THE WICKED 4495 2 3 0 15 THE PLAGUE (93) DUST DEVIL 4511 1 0 0 15 THE STORM FRONT (109) STRAY CAT 4510 1 1 0 13 WANDERERS (329) FUNNEL KLOWD 4507 1 3 0 6 THE STORM FRONT (109) ALBATROSS 4364 0 1 0 5 BIRDS (286) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

We already have 17 players that are interested and we are trying to get as many as possible involved before I submit the list to RSI. I am collecting the names and top 3 kingdoms that the players are interested in and submitting it myself so we can all play in the same game. If you are interested PM me in the DuelII Forums at Tripwire or email me at azaer123@comcast.net. -- Tripwire Balin Chane -- Apologies for picking on you, but this is a small arena and not a lot of opponents to chose from! Congrats on your invite... I'll be missing you! -- Devil Dog Marlin Reeve -- I think they heard me yelling in Sunset during that fight! -- Old Yeller Wrolling Thunder -- I defiled your little drip drip of a grey cloud! -- Firehydrant Defiler Tore Naydo -- A mere passing wind... likely coming from my hind parts! -- English Bulldog N'kai -- Well done, young padwa. -- The Hand of Dog Firehydrant Defiler -- You took a page out of my playbook. Nicely done! -- Wrolling Thunder English Bulldog -- I thought your breed was supposed to be slow and plodding! Sheesh! -- Tore Naydo Way of the Wicked -- Now that's a fight! Nice back and forth and good skills for the both of us. -- Funnel Klowd Stray Cat -- Glad you didn't give me a hairball! -- Whyte Squall Devil Dog -- So you won, ask me if I care! Must've been the political points. Anyway, thanks. -- Balin Chane Old Yeller -- Okay, peroxide isn't what you need. Hmm. I've heard that some blondes rinse their hair with chamomile tea to brighten it. Care to try it? Better than DRINKING the stuff. -- Marlin Reeve Red Tentacle -- Gah! -- Samara P.S. Really, tentacles? No way. Can't stand 'em. The Wait... and wait... and wait. Drat. I like a faster fight. -- Grimm Lurcher Whyte Squall -- A mixed blessing, this fight. I note with relief that THIS time, the Commission properly identified me, but then I ran into a white-out and got lost. Oh, well, at least I have a fur coat. -- Stray Cat We salute the tourney participants. It must have been a jungle out there, nobody seems to do well. But at least a lot of people did, if not well, with determination. -- Jorja and the Wanderers LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS FIREHYDRANT DEFILER bested GRIMM LURCHER in a 1 minute Challenge Title fight.
