DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hello from the top!
This is the B.C.'s first title and we are all excited. Drinks are on Galbei! Not
only did we take the title, but we had our best turn ever: a 4-1 with NO NPCs!
Curses to Bladerunner for spoiling our chances at a perfect 5-0, but them's the
breaks...
Peace!
The Black Clansman
SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for TRICORUS. Like, BLACK CONVENTICLE had to
be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by RAISING R'LYEH! Way to go
RAISING R'LYEH! Cut this out and put it in your scrapbooks, AMAZON ELITE! 'Cause
they got 3-0-1 and moved up to 4th! MVP award for RYOKO? AMAZON ELITE's proud of
her after beating EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and getting 20 points. Talk about yer big time
losers! THE JONAH got smashed by ENDLESS WATCH, and lost 5 points! Our last turn's
Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to CONVICTED ASSASSIN, and BLACK CLANSMAN has made
the way for a new Duelmaster! GALBEI of DARK HORSEMEN takes BLACK CLANSMAN's place.
(But seriously, who could ever take the place of BLACK CLANSMAN? Oh, all right.) I
hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want
photogenic fighters for PR photos.
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. The warriors
of RAISING R'LYEH must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do you
guys know something that I don't? I don't know what AMAZON ELITE's been doing. They
certainly haven't been accepting many fights from RAISING R'LYEH, that's fer sher.
Like, is GALBEI popular, or what? He was challenged the most in all of TRICORUS!
He's got a 19-19-2, is that good?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. What if they had a fight and nobody showed
up? I'd be out of a job, that's what!!!
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it
quits. Its been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Kurbald -- Lead your dark horses to the River, but don't let them drink that Dark
Sweet Treat! -- Dark River
P.S. Don't we find all these references to things black & dark a bit depressing?
Marskol -- My pleasure! -- The Jonah
Bladerunner -- That has to be the first time I've seen a grab for a backup fail, but
that was some great open fist work! -- The Jonah
Aillenei -- Between the two of us, I don't think I've ever seen so many scimitar
parries in my life! -- The Shroud of Gloom
Black Clansman -- Great work! Thanks for taking over the title, it was getting to
be a burden. -- Galbei
Shroud of Gloom -- Drat, I look terrible in black. It depresses me something awful.
-- Aillendei
P.S. I feel all gloomy and despairing, you know?
Dark Sweet Treat -- I don't see why you can't be a woman. It'd make more sense. --
Kurbald
War with the Sun -- Oh, babe, you know that isn't the way! Make love, not war. --
Marskol

All -- I've been...out of circulation for the last couple of months, and my lists
are not up to date. If you've announced a manager name, a new alliance, or changed
a manager name or alliance since the middle of February, let me know in the ads, via
diplo, or in an e-mail (Sue (at) solberg-mathews (dot) com). For that matter, if
you just want to make sure I've got things right, you can always do the same. -- The
Saint, keeper of lists
