DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Many thanks to Crescendo for letting me sit here for a second time. After those last
few losses to him, I thought I had to come up with a different kind of response to his
strategy of taking the throne and not writing a column. If I can win another fight, I
should be able to graduate. But that is easier said than done.
-- Gonnigan
Open Sesame
2-time Duelmaster of Snowbound
SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
SNOWBOUND brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, DARQUE THEORY, since
OPEN SESAME took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course,
we're all terribly impressed to see HELGA ICELAND win a fight and gain 10 points,
terribly. Tsk, tsk, HELGA ICELAND beat TONIC and TONIC lost 7 points. You're
breakin' my heart. Going for broke or broken, our Duelmaster GEISTLICH challenged
this turn. And if variety is the spice of life, SNOWBOUND may be getting bland, as
GONNIGAN stays top dog in the city. The Victory Tavern, humph! I've tasted better
ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From SNOWBOUND's trash dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. What's the big D? DARQUE THEORY was the most avoided
team? Bunch of lily livered... grumble... mumble... curse... And who led the way in
this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was OPEN SESAME. Ha
ha ha ha! Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, GEISTLICH was this turn's most challenged
warrior. Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. Let's see, 15-8-1. Pretty good record for
a living warrior. A sad one though, for a dead one. Such is the case for GEISTLICH
of DARQUE THEORY. Tsk. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate
catches up with you sooner that later?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. Glad
to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
We salute the tourney participants. -- the Middle Way
Mr. Noodle -- I've a great deal of respect for your family, although it can be boring.
It's like the old saying "rice is nice, but pasta's fasta." -- Helga Iceland
Barkley -- That's just like a cat. Claws. -- Newlin Ohm
Telly Monster -- That whole "wakes up disoriented" thing makes sense now. There was
nothing to do in the hospital, where I spent too long recently, except watch the tube.
It would disorient the strongest mind. -- Hailey Icewind
Geistlich -- Your name sounds like a juicy cough. I hope you covered your mouth. --
Oliver Queen
Two-Headed Monster -- How do you coordinate that? Specialization? -- Viola Wing
Warriors and Managers of Snowbound -- Jorja here. I *like* writing fiction for the
newsletters, and I'm *going* to do it, whether you want to participate or not. In the
absence of any clues beyond the warrior and team names, I'm going to establish
characters for the warriors we face and write about them. Feel free to make comment.
If you don't want your warriors involved, a statement to that effect in the newsletter
will stop me. If you want input but not to write a personal, send me a diplo, or ask
CSR for my email address. Your involvement would be welcome. -- Jorja
