DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Today's Word on The Street is methylethylamylophenylium.
"Chemists do not usually stutter. It would be very awkward if they did, seeing that
they have at times to get out such words as methylethylamylophenylium." -- William
Cooke

Open Sesame
2 Time Duelmaster of Snowbound
SPY REPORT
Much has changed in SNOWBOUND since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Some people say I ramble
too much, I don't say anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble. Well THE BLUES
50 moved up 0, to 3rd. What's with GUS CANNON? He actually beat SIGMA NU'S' ALVIN,
and walked away with 14 more points from the fight. Major screwup at SIGMA NU'S.
ALVIN lost 8 points to GUS CANNON. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe ALVIN will
provide more easy wins... VIOLA WING was reminded on the sands why WORD ON THE
STREET is Duelmaster. Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... How well I know the
feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, DARQUE
THEORY! The bums at OPEN SESAME couldn't face the challenges from DARQUE THEORY! No
excuse for that! What do people see in ALVIN? His 2-2-1? SIGMA NU'S ain't talkin',
but he's got 9 points. I hate going to the effort of writing about the kind of
fights that MARK gets in. He fights people like DOCTOR CLAYTON, 13 points below. I
thought MARK showed great skill and promise when he won victory over DOCTOR CLAYTON.
All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Warriors of SNOWBOUND unite. You have only your games to lose! JACK DEATH
larned his lesson (BLACK ACE taught it well), and we right likely won't be seein' 'im
fight any THE BLUES 50 members with the same gusto. Here's some advice: study your
opponent, master many skills, fight dirty.
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? Are
you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and
good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
