If they are not already posted, or are not in the next newsletter when Oz and Master Darque receive the advance copy on Feb 10ish--you are declared a dingleberry and your score and alliance score will be impacted negatively.

Ding Dong, the witch is dead! Long live the candlestick maker! Or do I have my nursery rhymes and stories mixed up. Hopefully, I'll be back next turn to sort it all out. Jack B. Nimble Royal Flush Duelmaster of North Fork SPY REPORT Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in MAMBOLAND. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! We now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. TOLBINS HIVE A now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it. Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is NUKE TEST, who swept up 14 places in the ranks. Take a look at D.A. REJECTS' act, as they have a 2-1-0 week and gain 11 places in the team ranking. Hey everybody, watch out for BIKINI ATOLL, who flew up 20 points in the rankings after mashing JENNA like a melon. Keep your eye on this beast. And falling like a basher in the top ten was JENNA, who dropped 16 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with BIKINI ATOLL. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit back and say 'Challenge me'! JACK B. NIMBLE made a challenge against BRAVE NEW RODENT this week. Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was BASH BROS PARK's BRAVE NEW RODENT, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by JACK B. NIMBLE. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff? Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the MAMBOLAND arena. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad BAAL'S MINIONS? Big bad BAAL'S MINIONS. Big bad BAAL'S MINIONS. MAMBOLAND's afraid of the big bad BAAL'S MINIONS. Tra la la la la! For those of you who like math, try this one: BAAL'S MINIONS + Weapons That go Boom = LAND OF OZ + Avoid City. Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, ICE WIND would be president. Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win. Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! NORTON defied all odds and slew CASTLE THUNDER in the Dark Arena. The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as CASTLE THUNDER's meat is notoriously tough. In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' category, BOMBULOID was mashed by VOLUND, who let BOMBULOID know that killing members of JOMSVIKINGS is a no-no. Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster. Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in MAMBOLAND have no sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks. And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME JACK B.

It takes two hands to handle a whopper, but I only needed one! Dead DA Whopper! Yes! Old Oz wanted to DA me, but I sure fooled him! -- Yellow Brick (the foundation of The Land Of Oz) Jack B. Nimble flushed me. He is a more deserving Duelmaster. He is also a gloryhound alliance mate! -- Ding Dong Chuck Todd -- You sneaky misreporter! How can you stomach to spout all that inaccurate fluff stuff? And then to dare come and dirty up my Castle? Dirt ball! -- Oz The All Angered Tsar Bomba -- I defused you. It was fun. -- Emerald City Me? I am patiently waiting for The face. Oz says I get to fight there. Later... -- Lion Beware The Desolation of SMOC! -- Oz The All Excited Teams! Declarations! Certs! Teams! Declarations! Certs! Teams! Declarations! Certs! Teams! Declarations! Certs! Get it? -- Oz The All Worried Health. Humility. Honor. Happy New Year to all. Oz and Consortiumites everywhere I'm back for some bums kicking! I will join the awesome new team KGGP captained by La Guillotine, with Khisanth and Grimm. My Champion will be little old Yorl. Merry Christmas... -- Le Pentarque Khisanth and his Serpents will be joining "Kick Your Bums In" along with Grimm, La Guillotine, and Le Pentarchie for the coming Turf Wars! -- Khisanth I am declarion LION, however cowardly he is, as my Champion for TW9. -- Oz The All Hopeful All -- I hope to read LOTS of declarations of teams this turn. -- Oz The All Expectant I declare my Turf War champion to be, Apple Cider Hider. -- slugbait Oz the All-Mentoring -- Thanks for the management info. Now the arena has you to thank for my (hopeful) production increase (AKA whupins). -- Master Fox Ecomoral Tinker -- I guess you don't like getting hit in the forehead! -- Jim Spectral Steel -- Valkyrie Vampire needs a stake through the heart! -- Master Fox I'm excited about the Turf Wars... TO VICTORY! -- Master Fox I, Mannequin, do hereby declare myself to be a member of the team, Desolation of SMOC. Second Bananas do hereby name Tobias Funke to be their rightful champion. -- Mannequin Norton -- Aren't you dead yet? -- Mannequin, your (hopefully) ex-manager Mamboland -- I would like to declare my team Gas Monkey will be a member of DOS in the upcoming Turf War. -- Stillgard Let it known that I, The Chosen One, (mgr. of A'merkin Injuns) am announcing my intention to join the Turf Wars with the Inner Circle. Thank you. The Inner Circle Turf Wars team once again acknowledges The Chosen One and his A'merkin Injuns as a member of our team, joining myself, Var, and Spirit. -- Dameon Darkheart, Inner Circle Captain. After a dissapointing showing in the last turf war, Oz, Mannequin and Slugbait decided to recruit Crip back into the fellowship that had won previous Turf Wars. However, the Tolkienesque identity of the alliance has ebbed and flowed with the tides of change, including the Fellowship of the SCOMSSS, and return of the SCOMS and a victorious COMPP squad. However, the last edition of OFLB didn't seem to cut the mustard, so I've agreed to return to lead this small band of heroes from the shire. The first step will be to return to our Tolkienesque origins and identify our Turf War team as "The Desolation of SMOC". Slugbait (Mystic Orc Feast), Mannequin (Second Bananas) and Oz (Land of Oz) will be kept under a short leash by the team captain Crip, at least until after 2nd breakfast. -- Crip, Mgr of Royal Flush P.S. We of course expect our senior citizen....err, make that statesman, Oz to get slightly confused and pledge his allegiance to the Desolation of SCOM, and we accept that as an inadvertent typo caused by his recent period of lack of employment. We've heard that's over now, so he should be good from here on in. Er, uh, SCOM, SMOC, MOCS, uh, what was that I pledged to? -- Oz The All Confused In case I have forgotton to make this declaration, I, Oz The Conservative, Manager of Land Of Oz, declare for The Desolation Of SMOC, captained by Crip of Royal Flush. -- Oz The All Excited Khisanth -- I am not sure what you did or did not do to annoy hal, but there were no personals from you. Did you perhaps try to send an attachment? Hal won't have anything to do with those. -- the editor LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS NORTON viciously butchered CASTLE THUNDER in a 4 minute Dark Arena fight.
