DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Up From the Sea made a good attempt. Is there anyone who might post a worthier
challenge? It's starting to feel nice up here. Now that we replaced all the black
curtains and cushions with pink ones, I think I'll stay up here a while. Bring it!!
-- Telenia
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in TRICORUS this turn, and let's
start with a look at some of the teams. And let's see, TERESAI fought NYARLATHOTEP
and gained 19 points and contributed to DARK HORSEMEN's 2-2-0. NYARLATHOTEP has lost
to TERESAI, falling 16 points, while helping make RAISING R'LYEH a 1-1-0 turn. The
attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and TELENIA remains TRICORUS' top
warrior for another turn. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night,
cramped under the table at The Blue Dolphin Inn?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. DARK HORSEMEN has cause to stand tall,
as they were TRICORUS' most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to
beat. And guess who avoided DARK HORSEMEN stable the most? Believe it or not, it
was RAISING R'LYEH. Anyone surprised? The most challenged warrior this turn was
OMINOUS REIGN's warrior BREAKER BAR. More fighters challenged him than challenged
the Duelmaster!
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their
enemies. You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Always good to rest in TRICORUS, but never good to wear out my welcome.
Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in TRICORUS again, farewell--
Alarond the Scribe

Teresai -- It was a bad day only... I think. -- Wo Tiger
Of Sea and Wind -- Nice fight and learns. -- Wo Tiger
Teresai -- Ouch! -- Henri
Nyarlathotep -- Hmm, I wonder if we can use "the onslaught of Chaos" as an excuse not
to write personals today? I dunno about the rest of the team, but I'm feeling really
confused. -- Barochdal
Brass Monkey -- I never did like monkeys much. But for you, I'll buy a banana. --
Shalaitha
Vector -- There seems to be an implication here that you'll go veering all over the
place. Works for me. -- Mahaghal
Hemi -- Ah, hospitals, I don't know anyone who likes 'em. -- Teresai
Archaic Elf -- Yeah, there's days and weeks and even months like that. But it
passes. -- Jorja, Dark Horsemen
26 August 09
There has been a run lately of personals and columns turning up in the wrong
arenas. When you email in something, check and make sure you have the correct
arena number! It's easy for a finger to slip onto the wrong key. When the
receipt comes back, check again to be sure it went where you intended!
Vigilance is your friend, and mine too. -- the Editor
