DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Misery, you should NOT have lost that fight! It floors me. Amazing.
Stiltz
Shewish and proud of it
SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, VEASTIAN? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, WIDOWMAKERS, since THE
FAMILY took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Now let's all watch
HELL'S PAWNS' heads swell from their 3-1-0 this turn. Haa ha ha ha! Big shots, big
talk, big deal. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see ETHON EL KEER win a
fight and gain 22 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, ETHON EL KEER beat TIRO CUCKOO and
TIRO CUCKOO lost 12 points. You're breakin' my heart. And it's out with the old, in
with the new, as DESPAIR takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old
Duelmaster. Heh, heh. The Welcome Wench, humph! I've tasted better ale at
mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From VEASTIAN's trash dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for VEASTIAN's
morgue. More variety. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is
developing these kinds of weapons?
There's got to be a better place in VEASTIAN to get a drink than The Welcome
Wench! Any suggestions? Just wait 'till next time I show up here, I won't be so
nice! So nyaaah! Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens

Ribsplitter -- Ah...your day job is at the barbecue place down on the waterfront,
isn't it? I thought I'd seen you there. You're better at that. -- Tiro Cococo
M. Chardinee. (sigh) -- Carline
Bloodletter -- I hope they didn't study your tricks during those days you spent in
the Infirmary. They don't need to do stuff like that! -- Tiro Cuckoo
Torment -- What was up with that? Too much weight? -- Vahnzur
Harbinger -- It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it. -- Tiro Cuckoo

All Readers -- Due to the pressures resulting from preparing for and dealing with the
Face to Face, no spotlights will be written until it's over. -- the Scribe
17 July 2004
I am currently trying to put together a favorites chart for AD warriors. I
desperately need help with this. What I need are style, favorite rhythm (ex.:
hi/low), favorite weapons, and tactics. What would be great is if you could send me
a copy of the invite with the warrior's name, id#, and arena blacked out. This way,
I can verify that this is an actual warrior. Minis will work, too!
For those interested, I have both a challenge style vs. style and a match-up style
vs. style chart. There's about 250 fights calculated in these charts, and I'll be
happy to send a copy to anyone who asks. You can contact me (if you're a free world
player) at: Rick Stringer, Merit/East, SCI, P.O. Box 500, Georgetown, DE 19947-0500.
If you're in prison, just send a diplo to: Baphomet, Mgr. Knights Templar (568), DM
#47--North Fork. (I also have a lot of other charts and info for anyone who wants
it.) Thanks!
