DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Hail Fratsfa... Well, this is a shock... Good fight, Tulip. Think I got a bit
lucky in that one. I'm timed out for the mailer, even though I don't expect to do
much. Soo I will be leaving the throne to the highest bidder.. Good Luck to all....
SPY REPORT
Welcome THE GREENHOUSE. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the
fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Hmmmph! I
always thought DRAGONS GUARD II was an over-rated team and they proved it with a
1-2-0! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm
gonna be... Well, ZEN WARRIORS' 6th moved them up to 3-2-0 place. It seems so
recently people were saying BLOOD AND GUTS! was washed up, finished. But 3-1-1 moved
them up 2. I guess they're washed no more... What's with 451 DEGREES? He actually
beat FLOWER GIRLS' SAVAGE SNOWBALL, and walked away with 23 more points from the
fight. Laughs were big at PYROMANIA while they watched 451 DEGREES clobber SAVAGE
SNOWBALL. She lost 15 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.
Har har har! Did DESPAIR wimp out, or just get lazy? Anyway, it's not Duelmaster
anymore. Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... THE GREENHOUSE thinks
ZEN WARRIORS and their 6-20-0 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give up...
Management must be dealin', as the boys at JADE WARRIORS ain't reelin'! ZEN
WARRIORS' mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior,
ONYX! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. Keep challenging up
26 points, MEIDANI, and I won't have to write about you much longer. ONYX always
accepts those kind of challenges... As I expected, ONYX won MEIDANI. Not to start
anything, but, MEIDANI, now that you've faced it and seen hers style, you might try
it again! ALANEA of JADE WARRIORS knows how to pick 'em. She challenged SIR BREUSE
of THE ORDER who is up by 19. Now was this a wise move? ALANEA perhaps got hers
just desserts, seeing as she was bested by SIR BREUSE and ended up with 4 recognition
points.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Is it my imagination, or are fighters getting younger every
day? To die so young, so gloriously!
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

Whoops! What is this? A 3-1 turn when it doesn't really count? When's the next
quest? (wink) Meanwhile, bring your warriors on over to The Flower shoppe and give
them a treat! -- Lady Fern
To the top three teams in The Fratsfa Quest, you should have received your rollup
sheets this turn, so congrats. (You RATS!) Thanks to LP for doing the hard work of
coordinating the event. Hard work means he needs a visit to The Flower Shoppe. We
like him because he always needs three gals at a time. What a man! -- Lady Fern
(wink)
Two -- It was fun. I was lucky. I am ready to lick your wounds. Let's use whipped
cream, too! It is such fun! -- Torturing Tulip
451 Degrees -- How nice of you to challenge. It was a hot, hot, tussle, I agree.
But I am pretty used to hot stuff, you know? (wink) Thanks for letting me finish on
top. (tee hee) I love it that way. -- Savage Snowball
Silia -- Well, I guess you showed me! I want more of you. Come and visit me at The
Flower Shoppe. Okay? -- Hateful Hasta
Anastrianna -- How very nice of you to visit. Did you have fun? I surely did.
Oooooooh! -- Caustic Crocus
I love you guys! -- Lady Fern
Despair -- I gave you everything I've got. Did you like it? (Tee Hee.) You win;
you win. Now YOU get to pen a DM Column. How's that for torturing? -- Torturing
Tulip
M. Chardinee -- I was the savage. You were the snowball. -- Savage Snowball
Visiting Orc -- You need to visit more often. The Flower shoppe is open to one and
all, and we promise a special crescendo just for you. -- Caustic Crocus
Zoum La Boum -- I didn't have enough for you I guess, Hon. We will have to try that
again after I take a little vacation. (wink) -- Gloating Gardenia
Meadani -- Can't you give a gal a chance to warm up? -- Hateful Hasta (Having yet
another of those hateful days.)
Congratulations to Duelmaster Despair. You deserved the title. -- Lady Fern
What a weird challenge, beautiful Gardenia! Were you testing a weapon, or do you
just, hum... like me? -- Zoum
Damn, that challenge was an easier one... well done, 451. -- Two
Areopolite seems to be lucky with the fire! -- LP
And finally... congrats to Despair! -- LP
Nene to All Managers -- I am the new manager of Epyc Death, having assumed the title
from my father. After the deaths of two of his gladiators on the same day, my father
became inconsolable and could not face the prospect of further battles. He blamed
himself for not training hard enough. He blamed himself too much, for death is all
around us; indeed, he visited my father not many months ago. We are back and the son
of the slain Bandor has joined us, agreeing to not seek revenge on deeds long past.
Warriors, I salute you!
Disco Inferno -- Are you so afraid of everyone else that you have to keep challenging
me? -- Salient
Hateful Hasta -- I so hate it when I destroy a beautiful flower...sorry. -- Meidani
Lady Fern -- I am so sorry for not visiting your lovely flower shoppe. I hope that
you will forgive me and allow me to make it up to you properly. ;) -- Torak
Two -- ...one... blastoff! How hot was that?! -- 451 Degrees
Areopolite -- I have to say I was surprised at the outcome.... well done... maybe
we'll dance again in the future. -- Hot Stuff
Onyx -- You sure are one hell of a stone. -- Tuscan Flame
Salient -- Do the hustle!!! -- Disco Inferno
Audry -- I once had an old flame named Audry... she was a hotty! -- Lighter Fluid
27 September 10
Note -- We are still looking for additional teams in Arvat, DM 32. I still have a
number of good team rollups available FREE for whoever wants one.
Contact the Devil Advocates ASAP to join the fun! You can either reach me by
diplo or on the RSI site.
Also, whoever sent me the diplo with no name on it requesting a rollup /
information on how to get into Arvat, I'm embarassed to admit that the diplo slipped
out of my folder and was lost. Please just send me another one with your mailing
address and I'll get a rollup to you ASAP. Sorry about that!
