                             Notes from the arena champ.

     Well, I guess I am off to the Isle for retirement.  There is very little to say,
I backed into the throne with a well placed challenge to Earvling Klash.  I was
anticipating a successful match versus our former Duelmaster, but it did not come to
pass.
     Some people like particulars, so here are mine since I'm off to retirement.
17-5-9-17-9-16-11; Master Init, Adex Rip, Master Att, Adv Master Decise (+4 Init, +2
Rip, +4 Dec).  28-24-2 in tournaments with 1 TV.  As to my faves, MO/LO, QS, Response
tactic, learns Attack.  Nothing really out of the ordinary for one of my style.
     My time here has been fun and eventful, as is most times in the Swamp.  I fought
my first fight in January of 2007, just in time for the start of Turf War V.  The
arena was known as Double-X then.  How times have changed.
     My challenge goes to the Dark Arena this turn.  "Nothing ventured; nothing
gained" is what Darque always says to us.  Easy for him to say as other gladiators
swing swords and clubs at OUR heads!

Your Duelmaster,
     Salsa Elemental

                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of TEMPLE OF ABARSIS!  Know me for who I am, Zontani 
Sharp Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  Former top team LES TURFISTES 
was unseated this week as OTTODROME TW moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot 
with a 4-1-1 record for the round.  I have begun to suspect trickery on the part of 
TOKEN ENTRY.  How else weeks like this one's 4-1-1?  How else the sudden move to 17th 
team?  VEGAN CANNIBALS bore the brunt of major assault on their standings this week 
as they dropped to 25th position as the result of going 2-3-0!  Did only my eyes note 
the 4-1-0 record which ROYAL FLUSH managed to post this round?  I don't doubt that 
such a record will draw challengers!  ACE FREHLEY caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested JUNEAU DAWNING and was awarded 75 
points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, OFF TO SEE THE... 
put down SMOKEY BEAR, causing him to lose 17 points of recognition in the process.  
As is fitting, the most sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was 
none other than Duelmaster SALSA ELEMENTAL itself.  Most watched of the fights this 
week, the spotlight was on OTIS THE DRUNK as he bore arms against the Dark Arena 
Challenge of reigning Duelmaster SALSA ELEMENTAL.  Although OTIS THE DRUNK made a 
valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious SALSA ELEMENTAL. 
No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position 
using magical aids.  Charmed weapons perhaps?   
     I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently 
transpired.  Indeed there is much I would report.  My inside sources tell me that the 
team to beat in TEMPLE OF ABARSIS these days is OTTODROME TW.  At least, most blades 
in town are looking to avoid them.  If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have 
been hard pressed to find any of BUBBA'S 3RD ARMY last week.  Busy avoiding OTTODROME 
TW?  Give THADIUS BANTU credit for hers courage.  Did you note how she challenged SUN 
BEAR despite the 32 point difference in their rankings?  I must admit to some joy.  
Before my very eyes the underdog in this contest, THADIUS BANTU, defeated SUN BEAR to 
claim victory and recognition.  A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this 
week, it seems that IDALIA posted a challenge against the more highly recognized 
GENCON.  The results, you ask?  Well, the firebrand IDALIA beat GENCON.  Remember 
warriors, this is the discipline of steel.   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  SALSA ELEMENTAL has sworn to take up religion upon living to tell 
of its recent bout with the Dark Arena horrors.  A rare thing indeed!  The warrior's 
path is harsh.  For mediocrity there is but one reward--death.  This past week 
HUNTER, at 9-9-2, departed TEMPLE OF ABARSIS forever.  I must report the passing of 
HILROC IBBINS, veteran of many duels.  12-17-0 final record His was not 
illustrious--but death plays no favorites.  Walk proud, warriors of DARQUE FORCES!  
By striking down KANA BALLISTIC you have avenged the honor of your dead.  Your virtue 
is known to all in TEMPLE OF ABARSIS.  Some say a warrior is judged by the way he 
bears arms.  One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!   
     If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times 
already in TEMPLE OF ABARSIS.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  Ahh, but I can hear 
the spires of a far off city calling to me.  I must away!  Till next we meet 
remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  The wise are angered by the 
same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes

May he fight well in That Great Arena In The Sky. -- Oz The All Sorrowful

Congrats to LOL on a fine, fine tournament showing-- especially that Stormlord with
North Fork's only TV.  Kudos! -- Oz The All Praising

Salsa Elemental -- We Ozers salute your Duelmaster Title and Lord Protectorship.
Good luck to you. -- Oz The All Envious
P.S.  My warriors say "they won't really miss you, though."  I wonder what that's all
about?  (wink)

Mandorallen -- What perfect timing for you to be declared as a Champion.  It was my
pleasure to double your loss.  I enjoyed weaving out that victory. -- Basket, Land Of
Oz

Sheldon -- Well fought.  Oz says tournabout is fair play amongst us. -- Off To See
The..., Land Of Oz

A Tale Of Pain -- I can only say that you were simply too much tale for me.  I will
practice my reading so I don't feel so much pain next time. -- Quadling, Land Of Oz

Innanna -- I would like to say something like "take this broomstick and stick it
up...", but rather I shall only say "Congratulations on a fine fight; you are my
better." -- Broomstick, Land Of Oz

Stabbin' Panda -- Hah!  I stabbed first! -- Huck, Land Of Oz

COMMP Squad Teammates -- I salute you.  You were able to squeeze out a first place
standing despite my recent inadequacies.  I only went 2-3 in round three.  I only
scored 1 point from the tournament.  I lost my best warrior right on the cusp of a
TV.  Mea Culpa.  Thanks for carrying me. -- Oz The All Disgraceful

Current Top Team -- Les Turfistes.  Top Team On The Move -- All Star Nana's.  Way to
go, partners! -- Oz The All Excited

Skaven -- You should have received a diplo this turn with an explanation of the
scoring.  Glad I could help. -- Oz The All Helpful

Great, great, great Face Tournament participation from all you North Fork managers!
Well done!  You all bring great acclaim to The Swamp. -- Oz The All Thankful

Broomstick -- Ah, an easy ride. -- Inanna

Off To See The... -- Well, since you are so outrageously lovey-dovey, I shall have to
do a better job of getting you down on your back.  We will see how well you wag your
sword around then.  Though a man of your experience can be intimidating, I am far
more clever than shy. -- Inanna

Talkeetna -- Yep.  You're pretty good. -- Pokey

Dragon God -- Repeat what you said.  I didn't catch it.  Oh, I see.  You're not so
cocky without that horseshoe up your.... -- Elephant

Earvling Klash -- I have been trying to get that challenge through for many cycles.
It is ironic that it goes through on the one turn that you were my back up plan. --
Salsa Elemental

Chabat -- I wondered when that challenge was coming.  Guess I got my answer,
painfully. -- Gizmo

Smokey Bear -- Not my idea of a fun time. -- Prowl

Time of Torment -- I'm sure that could have gone on for much longer had you been
properly prepared. -- Astrotrain

Blaine the Train -- I guess I figured out the riddle of how to win. -- Blitzwing

All-- Wow!  We had three 5-0 teams last turn.  Congrats to Kath, Otto X, and Storm
Lord. -- Master Darque

In Qeternum -- Perhaps Edax should consider a career change, maybe something along
the lines of... seamstress?  Though I wouldn't want your "fighter" to break a nail.
*laughs* -- Quezcatl, mgr. Blood Magic

All -- I am getting together as many Duelmaster players as possible to play in a game
of Hyborian War as a change of pace.  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

COMMP still on top!  The tourney was not exactly a lucky one, but the arena is still
ours! -- Le Pentarque

I am declaring PERCHERON as my Champion. -- LP, manager of Les Turfistes

You could be right, Cave Canem...  I was also wondering about that sword of yours! --
Yorl

Purple Drank -- I had planned on correcting the poor grammar in your name but then I
realized it probably wouldn't do any good since you "don't have the WIT to make sense
of my teaching ability." -- Norton

Fang -- Man, do I HATE snakes! -- Dr Cox

Iditarod Trail -- I should have seen that challenge coming... -- Hawkeye

Rohypnol -- Did my warhammer's taps to your noggin' wake you up?  -- Latka

Racecar -- I think I would have been better off using my desperation strategy. --
Rerun

I, Mannequin, mgr of Second Bananas, do here by declare Latka 6940 to be my champion.

Bill -- Thanks for the welcome.  I was sad to move Kaos out of the arena, but my
little furry team should do okay.  As for the Turf War, we will see what we can
bring, just want to help my team the best I can. -- Grimm

Slim -- Do not feel bad, I am a super squirrel, -- Shiv Squirrel

Dark Angel -- Sorry for the kill, I am rarely the killing type.  Mind you, Shadow was
bad for killing and ended up with quite a few tourny kills. -- Grimm

Stormlord -- I told you, I knew you would do it.  Are you guys thinking summer F2F;
it appears I will finally be free.  I miss my friends, especially the staff. -- Grimm

Golden Cap -- Oh my, condolences to Oz; but, if there is one thing I remember from
grudge matches was "kill it"!!!  Just kidding, sucks to lose a good guy. -- Grimm

Mannequin -- Gonna try to get a guy or two of yours this turn, now leave FGC alone,
you silly cat. -- Grimm

North Fork -- We declare Ace Frehley to be our next Champion. -- The gang at Royal
Flush

Ben Gal -- Me 2 you 0 nice. -- Asylum

Bloodmagic -- With a name like "New Vengeance" did you think that I would just roll
over and take it!  Not a chance!! -- New Vengeance

Beatnik Horde -- Congrats.  You have made my mind up.  It's time for a change. --
Arkane

See Ya -- Were you not supposed to challenge someone else? -- Jezebel

Blizzard -- That didn't work out like I had planned.  Sorry -- Salvation

Reaper -- Time to go. -- Arkane

Commp -- Whatcha gonna do when LOL's 22 inch pythons go wild on YOU?!!!!  Don't get
too comfy in that top spot because we're coming after ya! -- Marma Duke and Team LOL

Vendetta -- You sure are learning a lot from our little encounters... and don't
worry... I'm not trying to kill you! -- Kana Ballistic

Bad News Bear -- It sure was bad news when I saw my matchup against you.  Maybe next
time? -- Judgement Day

Agoseris -- When in doubt... go to the well again!  <smooch> -- Kiss of Death

Tuums -- Thuch a thatithfying thight!  Theeya later! -- Thadithtic Lithper

To those at the winter FTF -- It was great seeing each and every one of you... yes,
even you... and you as well.  ;-) -- Marma Duke

Team LOL -- Rock on with your bad selves!!! -- Marms

Niine -- Hey brotha, that's a crappy match-up for Torpunz.  They called you a wimpy
giant, now those guys have a sense of humor. -- Dartanyon

Party Trap -- Did somebody say start?  I must have missed it. -- Endemic

Anje -- I guess rather than grinning I should have kept swinging.  Thanks for the
lesson out there -- Gencon

Agony of Days -- The agony of defeat. -- Rusty

Sandy Bear -- Almost!  A little premature with the whole bloodlust thing.  It always
amazes me how good those two weapons we were using really are. -- The 100

Torpunz -- No problem, boys, from the basement there is only one way to go, to the
dungeon. -- Dark Angel

Oz -- I was just trying to embarass Dartanyon a little, it seems to have worked over
the last couple of turns. -- Dark Angel

Arkane -- The rest of Torpunz have decided to start throwing our fights so that you
won't feel bad for the lossing record.  At least that's my official explanation for
turn 298.  Misery loves company. -- Dark Angel

Luudo -- Quality at the Winking Wench has declined as of late.  It helps to start the
evening at Toad Tavern first to set your, um, equilibrium.  But next time, let's not
bring the as warriors there the night before the fights, as it turns out, that was a
mistake last turn!  (But I'd do it again.) -- Dark Angel

Salsa Elemental -- Bah!  Get ye to the Isle, spoiler! -- Earvling Klash

Bloodflicker -- Not my wisest challenge, eh? -- Rime

Kana Ballistic -- Still kickin' Shew! -- Vendetta

Quickspawn -- Faster than I expected, but it's not always first blood that decides
matters. *wink* -- Idalia

Madfreeze -- Minute Two:  One weapon shattered.  Minute Four:  Unarmed and at your
mercy.  Minute Five:  No victory for you. -- Denial
P.S.  How did I manage that? *maniacal grin*

All -- A bit disgruntled at the impact that tourney "participation" points are going
to have on a "turf" war.  *grumble*  Ah well, not like Catalyst is going anywhere
anyhow.  Please note that Denial (47-7365) will be the Champion for Force of Will

(670).  Might as well at this point, since it seems to be my state of mind.  *wry
grin*  Well fought, to those who actually fought, and congrats ot Alaskan Pipeline on
that TV.  Ex Animo.  -- Michael Eldritch

Latka -- At least I learned a few things from that "fight." -- Rohypnol

Vincere Mors -- It's called "calisthenics."  Don't avoid it. -- Lorazepam

Xicohtencatl -- Um, just an idea, maybe if you used a weapon you might win a fight.
-- Shiv

Whopper -- Sorry about the jewels.  A good fight my friend. -- Thadius (88)

Reaper -- Harvest not ready, no reaping today. -- Fraid Knot

Carrie -- I have been outclassed, thank you for letting me live. -- Thadius (87)

All -- Beatniks Horde seeks any advice from fellow players.  We have no internet so
we build warriors with the hopes they will do well.  Any help is greatly appreciated.
-- mgr Beatnik Horde

TNT -- Blew up in my face again.  Drat. -- Nin Quire

Juneau Dawning -- And way too early in the morning, too! -- Hilroc Ibbins

Ravage -- Men always try that.  Not today, bub. -- Velma Xavil

Isa Kobbes -- Well, that hurt!  I wonder if it would have made a difference if the
Commission admitted I'm not a Shew? -- Tulain Vorl

Diazepam -- You're no Shew, but somehow I can't seem to get worked up about it. --
Tia Relwan

We congratulate Salsa Elemental and salute the tourney participants. -- Jorja and the
Middle Way
