TEAM SPOTLIGHT
SUMMARY COMMENTS
1. TV's from The Tempe Face: Vynmorgath(Kaos)--YOURBAGD; Believe (Christian Rock 2)
(B.O.B.); Nikko (Land Of Oz) (SCOMSSS Shire) Congratulations to all.
2. Whoa! What got into B.O.B.? The They Must Die (Dark One) DA'd three apparent
"losers" costing the team -15 points. Those warriors must have been BAD! Not many
teams are capable of adding a 25 point TV, yet scoring negative for the round--but
B.O.B. is! We see what The Dark One means by They Must Die.
3. Dark Pinacle, for DREADNAUGHTS, scored BIG in spy report mentions with five for
ten points.
4. Kaos (Grim) takes top fight point gain with a big 11, and best total point round
so far with a whopping 38! (TVs are nice!)
5. Kaos (Grim) (5-0-0) had the only undefeated team. Think it helped his top point
gain?
6. Second Bananas (Mannequin), Royal Flush (Crip), and Abysmal Rites (Reaper) all
tied with 4 stylemaster points, but the Cripster has the main-man Duelmaster.
7. Who is that with the best overall record at 12-3-0? Why it is Mannequin's
Second Bananas. Salute!
8. There were 5 free DAs, with The Opera (Manager) again leading with two. There
were also 3 not-so-free DAs. Right, They Must Die?
9. With last turn's three top graduates from SCOMSSS Shire, and now this turn's two
from the same, including the current Duelmaster, plus the death in the FTF of a top
Challenger Champion SCOMSSS Shire striker from Mystic Orc Feast (Slugbait, who blames
Oz for the proxy.)--will our leaders drop like a rock? Seems likely.
10. Six teams have one kill. Only one? And one of them is NOT the alleged killer
Mannequin's team.
11. The point total spread between 1st and 2nd widened more with SCOMSSS Shire's
great fight-point round of 30. All Teams for them scored positive points.

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Here I am, closing out the 9th inning on my career in North Fork, err, SCOMSS
Swamp... Nothing too spectacular about me, still have my starting stats of 9-9-14-
17-9-15-11, and the commission says I like the Dagger, with a Moderate/Very Low
rhythm, while learning Decise skills and favouring the decise tactic. I leave here
with a Master in Decise, and Advanced Experts in Initiative, Riposte and Attack, on
67 learned skills. Boss says win or lose, I'm getting the hook after my next fight,
and no ADM for me.
Bullpen Ace
Royal Flush
Duelmaster of North Fork
errr.... SCOMSS Swamp
SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon SCOMSS SWAMP,
for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! Managers were muttering after THE OPERA showed
SCOMSS SWAMP what they could do: 4-1-0 to move up by 18. Like a chunk of francium
heaved into a wet pond, THE FALLEN blew up the rankings to 17! Perhaps it is SMOKED
OUT!!! members' intannibility that enabled them to move from 33rd to 21st last
week... (Less time in the sun...) The boys at THE BEAR'S PAW aren't the
happy-go-lucky bunch we all know and love, after suffering a 11 drop last week.
Rumor has it an incurable disease has swept the stable of SOLDIERS OF ROME. Note
their drop in the rankings from 23rd to 34th. Watch out!!! Good things come to
those who fight well, as I HATE THEM can attest, moving up by 8. OLD HABITS had
cause to celebrate, after MOTHER THERESA got 40 points by beating MAKRIYANNIS.
Duelmaster BULLPEN ACE from ROYAL FLUSH is going for the gold, as he Dark Arena
Challenged DARK ARENA's CREAM O'CROP CRIP. Ooh, the excitement! CREAM O'CROP CRIP
found out that SCOMSS SWAMP isn't a democracy. You've gotta be the best to be
Duelmaster here! Word has it one team in SCOMSS SWAMP is taking speech lessons to
try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
So much to report, so little time! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the
lion, so did the "warriors" in SCOMSS SWAMP avoid KAOS. Like a pup with its tail
between its legs, OF WOLF AND MAN scurried away from KAOS. Oh, the shame! Is it
charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is,
JEQON is the most challenged warrior. Them's the breaks, METELLUS. Expecting fair
challenges from OF WOLF AND MAN is evidently too much to ask. ATTERY beat METELLUS
with a point difference of 17. So this is what SCOMSS SWAMP calls a duel. This will
make an interesting tale. As a confidence booster, NILES challenged SMOKEY BEAR,
down 35 points. Do you also slay vicious rodents in your spare time, NILES? NILES
beat SMOKEY BEAR. The whole thing leaves a bitter memory. Take heed SCOMSS SWAMP,
of the unprincipled action of MADAME BUTTERFLY. By challenging SPARROW, 20 points
below her, MADAME BUTTERFLY besmirches the noble art of dueling. Warriors of SCOMSS
SWAMP! Do you wish your reputations tainted by the base challenge of MADAME
BUTTERFLY? Them's the breaks, AFRICAN QUEEN. Expecting fair challenges from OF WOLF
AND MAN is evidently too much to ask. JUSTICE FOR ALL beat AFRICAN QUEEN. The whole
thing leaves a bitter memory. Do my ears deceive me? QUEEN OF TARTS (outclassed by
32 points) challenged MEDEE, in what promises to be a fight.(!) Soopreyes, soopreyes!
QUEEN OF TARTS emerges from the fray 1 points the richer. Good show, QUEEN OF TARTS!
BLACKENED challenged ITHYIC THING! Who says OF WOLF AND MAN are just a bunch of
wimps! BLACKENED of OF WOLF AND MAN kept his wits as he won victory over ITHYIC
THING.
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
Those who owe BULLPEN ACE of ROYAL FLUSH money and had written him off, take note:
he'S BACK FROM THE DARK ARENA!!! AND he'S MAD!!! Fair play must not be a credo of
MYSTIC ORC FEAST, as MICE CREAM permanently removed AEMILIUS of SOLDIERS OF ROME from
the competition in a mismatched fight. Never one to advocate diplomacy and
restraint, I was pleased to see I HATE THEM retaliate against FORCE OF WILL in
bloodfeud! Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in
the arena. A certain tavern in SCOMSS SWAMP would I avoid!
All good things must come to an end. As the seasons change, and the creatures
of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. SCOMSS SWAMP,
I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Swinging Aardvark.
'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

Oz The All Organized
Grim, Chaos, Vynmorgath, you were the DM47 star of the show with your runner-up in
Tempe. A salute to you. Well done!
Oz The All Envious
I apologize to Christian Rock 2! BELIEVE also TV'd and earned 25 points. Congrats!
I am sorry I let this fall under my radar.

efforts. -- Winkie

Bullpen Ace, that was a great save. Yu da man! Duelmaster! -- Oz The All Thankful
Second Bananas 12-3-0 and Top Team. Wowsers! Way to go! But 12-3- and OH!?
Where's your mojo, Killers? -- Oz The all Puzzled
Pinnacles everywhere! FIVE Dark Pinnacle mentions in the Spy Report! They must be
famous? And good! Well done, buddy Lee. -- Oz The all Covetous
Mad Max, Slugbait it is. A true champion. -- Oz The All praising
Mad max, I suspect you are poorly informed. The Creepster would never do such
things. Have you been talking to that misinforming, conniving Managerr? I would
hate to see such a gentleman as yourself sued for such slander. -- Oz The All
Concerned
Grimmy, oh. Of course. Dental terms. Well, I know them as I use them often. PFM
and FGC stand for Please Fix my Mouth and Fuxxing Grandstanding Creep of a dentist.
-- Oz The All Knowing
"Managerr -- I am pulling for you uber boss, don't listen to the SSCOMSS cat calls.
--Grimm" Just to straighten you out, Grimmy; those were HOG CALLS. -- Oz The All
Informed
And very well done, too.
Buddy, are you reading? I read LOTS of smack talk. -- Oz The All Educated
Bullpen Ace and Pizza pie Party, a salute to your Lord Protectorship. We will miss
you. -- Oz The all Sad
Unfortunately Vynmorgath has to sit out till April. Such a shame my TV challenges
will be wasted. I am going for TC in the Adepts, see ya there. -- Grimm
Sscomss -- Ahh keep graduating them fellas. -- Grimm
Mannequin -- I was coming with my TV challenge last turn, how did you avoid me Mr
Shannon. -- Vynmorgath
Crip -- In April if you want the Northern TC contender match I will be ready. --
Grimm
Kortalia -- Another kill, wooo. Anyway, sorry if I sounded arrogant last turn, truly
it was my mood when I was at the face. -- FGC
Psst this contest ain\'t ovahhh!!! -- Grimm
Kodiak -- OUCH! Watch my pony tail man! Thank you for not making me your 5th
victim. I appreciate that. I will be avoiding you from now on. -- Soultaker(tw)
Kortalia -- Gurgle.... Bleh.... -- Anti(tw)
Kortalia -- That wasn't nice. I don't mind my guys getting their lunch eaten but
did you have to smoke him too? I had high hopes for Anti. Well not really but he
was a nice albeit useless guy. That has been the FONZ's thoughts about him for
years. Anti was 13-10-9-21-10-14-7 Basher, Poor Endurance, Good Damage. Ad Exs in
Init, Attack & Decise, Experts in Riposte and Defense. He was +4 Attack & Defense.
He would have eventually taken off. I just KNOW it! -- Mad Max
Sister Maryjane -- Yabba Dabba Dooski!!! That was a good enough fight. I liked the
skills on my end! Yonker Wonker Do! I'll give you another shot! -- The
Creepster(tw)
Brewmaster -- The boss thinks I'll be really good one day. I'm NOT sure I
personally see it, but I'll take his word for it. -- Master Darque(tw)
Rumor of the Month: The same school girls that Father O'Malley was seen punishing
for being naughty reportedly was caught sneaking behind Oz's curtain. Our sources
tell us that these girls would routinely leave the curtain after a minute with their
hair all messed up. North Fork authorities are currently investigating reports of
inappropriate contact. More to report next month
Local hairdressers are concerned.

Barley -- Your blowing around in the breeze like that makes it awful difficult to hit

Nightcrawler -- I swing and BAMPH! It's your fight! Well done for a non-
participating fighter! -- Gadreel
Swamp Turf -- What exactly is Swamp turf? Do you shave it? -- Jeqon
Only on Saturdays.
Dreadnaughts -- I'm working on my warriors' techniques. We should do better from
here! -- Azaziel
Jorja -- We work well together. Would you like to form an alliance in another arena?
-- Azaziel
Jack Knife -- For a TV, you ain't that tough. Shuck the armor and I think I've got
ya... nice learns though.. *sigh* -- Chronaliss
All That Matters -- I won. You lost. Pretty much answers that. -- Earvling Klash
Rerun -- Yeah, I've had about nine of 'em... -- Gauntlyn
Burn for You -- How about "Burnt Out for Me"? -- Pariah, the resident jerk
Anti -- Wow! You can like, TOTALLY, blame that one on FGC. He left me wating to
blow off some steam. -- Kortalia
P.S. Know where I can get a good skin graft? That whiffle pretty much peeled the
hide off me.
Hmmm... matters are not progressing in a satisfactory manner my fellow Dreadnaughts.
Owlin, I'll pull the stops to try and help, but I'm no expert. However, slashers are
my best style, so we'll see. Charts I can do, but I'm ironically 'time stratpped' so
I'll see what I can dig up. Liam, the strats worked for everyone but Gauntlyn, so
I'll keep tweaking him. Buddy...all I can say is, it ain't over till it's over. If
I can't win, I'm gonna try to take as many with me as I can. *wry grin* Jorja,
bring on the styles, and keep up the moral support. -- Michael Eldritch, the
currently contemplative
P.S. Congrats to all the graduates and condolences on the dead.
Buddy Lee -- Good to see you're still at it! -- Toker, mgr Silver Knights
Michael Eldritch -- You stuck with Duelmasters I see. That's good! Diplo if you
want. I just read a diplo from you when you first stared the other day. -- Toker
Master Darque -- Hi! -- Toker
Hammer -- Are you still in Qatar? Also, where's Baphomet? I lost touch with him and
Blackstorm. -- Toker
JGW -- Have you been in Mordant? -- Toker
All -- Glad to see the Swamp hasn't changed! Great competition and a passel of
teams! -- Toker
Saint -- May I get a list of managers/teams? Thankx! -- Toker
I wish you hadn't asked that, as the Saint is no longer doing the lists. Now
it's me, and I'm still getting organized. But I will try to get one in next
turn, if you can go with that. -- the Scribe
Buddy Lee -- Is the fallen Azreal's? -- Toker
Jorja -- Well, well, well... things just don't seem to be working in your favor.
Might I suggest that you tell your warriors to act as if a chick coming out if its
shell.. work furiously.. then rest! -- Owlin the Wise
P.S. If at first you don't succeed... try a different rhythm! *smile*
Dreadnaughts -- I'm working with all I got don't give up on my breood just yet! --
Owlin the Wise
Force of Will -- Keep up the good work. Did you get my diplo? -- Owlin
Hellenic Heroes -- A random match up gone bad. I truly never would have matched such
a pathetic fighter with Nightshade. Oh well, thanks for the points! See you in the
sands... especially if your whole brood is so weak! -- Raptor
!!Snark attack!!
Swamp Frogg Hammer -- *ribbit!* Might I suggest... (you can rip it!)... a weapon?
(R.I.P. 'em good!) or I'll be... -- Your Huckledevoberry
Oh sure, Cr@pster -- I flash you my weapon, and you blab it all over the swamp... --
The Kurgen, seeing how it is
Nay, Lord Buddhy -- Not Snarky, Master G, Erasmus B. Dragon, or Nadia Geddit? (I
gave at the temple, my dollar to the almighty Namachangarama.) -- Changeling of an
Ephraim (32)
I'd become the very scum I'd come to lump. -- anonymoust note fround by Dark Arena
Janitor
Get the Point? -- No, but I never do, so it doesn't matter, does it? Besides, I find
a blunt more challenging. -- Nin Quire
Sister Mary-Kate -- I wouldn't have a sister of MINE act like that. -- Sonny Urk
Jenufa -- You're one mean dude! Of course, in the arena this is good. But remind me
not to date you! -- Velma Xavil
Rois Amin -- Drat. You may be a war hammer by trade, but you aren't so dusty when it
comes to hammering heads, either. Ouch. -- Rondol Quiglo
Temptress -- Not me, I have a complex and that means no time to be Tempted. The Evil
Inputter has it IN for me, she's out to GET me! I TOLD her, "not Shewish," I even
specially said "Not Shewish Midget." And she's got me down as a Shewish Midget
ANYWAY. So I have a serious complex about it. -- Hilroc Ibbins
Oz the All-Gallant -- Of course, but how many people get what they deserve? -- Jorja
Master Darque -- Yeah, well, I've got problems. Maybe, if the Evil Inputter isn't
busy or feeling humorous, I'll get 'em fixed. -- Velma
Buddy Lee -- I am strongly tempted to mail you guys the stats on my team and let YOU
manage 'em. But I probably won't, at least not this time. It's been one thing after
another around here. Which I suppose is better than several things at once, but not
lots better. -- Jorja
P.S. I had the intention of changing some strats this turn, but circumstances beyond
my control made this impossible. Next time, though.
Gongratulations to the graduating Bullpen Ace and Pizza Pie. -- Jorja and the Middle
Way
And a salute to all the tourney participants, with special congratulations for any
tourney victors but I can't read the page very well tonight. Must be age catching up
with me. -- Jorja
Crip -- Will do. Even though it's amazingly tedious to compile every week. -- the
Scribe
If there were more personals, please accept our apologies. Hal took a long
weekend and is only now getting through the mail. They'll show up next time.
