DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Ah, a second chance to write a Duelmaster Column. How nice. All that swirvin'
practice has greatly helped, I suspect. As I promised, a second column would not be
about fightin', so I will make it about ME.
My faves:
food -- wet. Not dry; chicken and liver based is best
location -- the back screened porch is MINE
comfort zone -- on Dad's lap in his zonk chair watchin sports
friend -- Beatrice, she's a calico
toy -- no toys, I'm a big boy, but I like to play with ants
bed -- Dad's office swivel chair (It swirvs)
I live the high life and I am the Duelmaster. What more could I want?
Irvin DMII
SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon ARDIVENT, for
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! What's a move up by 4 you ask? (alright, maybe
you didn't ask) Cause for celebration, according to AZURE CLOUDS. BARDS had cause
to celebrate, after NAMELESS got 22 points by beating FINGERS BROOKE. A certain
someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 7 points to
NIMBLE NIMBUS. (Discrete enough, MILLER?) In ARDIVENT, nothing is permanent (except
Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, JOUBERT KLEE. Word has it one team
in ARDIVENT is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
So much to report, so little time! Perhaps the warriors of ERRATA should take
up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... The warriors of ERRATA found
their efforts at combat frustrated as FANDILS apparently had more important things to
do than fight. Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral
hygiene? Whatever it is, CORBIN ROSS is the most challenged warrior.
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Oh hard! that to
strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Leave me now, you base fools! Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat!
Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid ARDIVENT farewell--
Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Corbin Ross -- I got my swirvin' downpat. I may be a tabby, but I go like a calico!
-- Irvin
Arlene Ross -- I think I must be lucky, because I am sure I am not that good. --
Clara Rose
All -- I rested. No fight. Read a book. It was a nice break. -- Snuffy
(interpreted)
Joubert Klee -- Man oh man oh man! My luck continues! -- Leroy
Shiftyeyed Volunteer -- Thank you for being there. You have to do something with
those eyes if you want to be a fighter. Go see an optometrist. -- Miller
Hey, Fandils, well done! I am proud of you. -- Fandil The Wise
Health. Humility. Honor. Beware The Red Sands. -- WOF
Irvin -- Yes. We're all quite fond of cats here. Within reason, at least. Some
cats are a little inclined to bully others, and that we do NOT stand for. Within,
again, reason. They can bully each other all they want out in the wide world, but
when it comes to chasing away a cat we've been feeding for a couple of years, in
order to take over the gravy train, then, no. Then the squirt bottle comes out. --
Joubert Klee
One-four. Drat. And because *I* had the win, over a mere Ambitious Guard, *I* have
to write the official personal. Not happily, let me tell you! But still, there it
is. Here we are. Etc. -- Fingers Brooke
