Because I am not really cut out for this position Because I really have an ugly stat makeup Because I am nothing but a placeholder Because I would rather have a romp in the hay than a fight in the sand Because I really want out of here Because I like all the gladiators in Fratsfa (really like 'em!) Because life is sweet Because, because, because... I really don't know why I shared all that; perhaps a Duelmaster Column is like going to a therapist? Sooooooooo, hopefully I can stay here just one more time. Hopefully. Gloating Gardenia, DMII SPY REPORT Hail FRATSFA! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your deeds. It seems the training can make the difference, as BASH BROS ROAD SIGN is pushed out of top team by FLOWER GIRLS, who came from 2nd with a 3-2-0 this turn. The DRAGONS GUARD II guild has had a 3-1-0 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, HU YAN ZHUO fought SALINA REES and gained 21 points and contributed to WAH CHING's 1-3-0. BOMBATTA has lost to MOE SKEETO, falling 10 points, while helping make DRAGONS GUARD II a 3-1-0 turn. We should ask CONFLICT about the thrill of victory, and what being the new Duelmaster does for a warrior, it's now the one to ask. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The Victory Tavern? The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the WAH CHING stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on FRATSFA, what are you afraid of? And guess who avoided WAH CHING stable the most? Believe it or not, it was FLOWER GIRLS. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that URSILA RILVAR from MIDDLE WAY 8 was FRATSFA's most challenged warrior this turn. We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and shave it close? A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over. Consider well. Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare to fight bravely. It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CONFLICT 4274 9 2 0 105 DRAGONS GUARD II (253) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CAUSTIC CROCUS 4103 24 14 0 109 FLOWER GIRLS (189) PETULANT PANSY 4234 11 2 0 95 FLOWER GIRLS (189) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HU YAN ZHUO 849 13 17 0 88 WAH CHING (146) GLOATING GARDENIA 4083 15 13 0 82 FLOWER GIRLS (189) SALINA REES 3546 17 29 0 80 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) DARGON 4264 11 6 0 77 DRAGONS GUARD II (253) URSILA RILVAR 4105 10 12 1 68 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -VELVET ROSE 4255 11 7 0 66 JADE WARRIORS (430) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WEI YAN 4257 9 11 1 53 WAH CHING (146) HIDDEN 4278 4 1 0 53 BASH BROS ROAD SIGN (433) HATEFUL HASTA 4194 9 10 0 51 FLOWER GIRLS (189) SUN QIAN 4256 10 10 1 49 WAH CHING (146) UNREADABLE 4279 4 1 0 49 BASH BROS ROAD SIGN (433) GRAFFITI 4280 4 0 0 43 BASH BROS ROAD SIGN (433) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SEI BHAT PO 4295 7 5 0 32 WAH CHING (146) -CORPSE ROT 4200 2 0 0 24 GRAVE DANCERS XX (431) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -YURISHIDO 4290 5 6 2 23 JADE WARRIORS (430) LEIA 4330 2 1 0 19 DRAGONS GUARD II (253) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MOE SKEETO 4319 1 0 0 18 GARBAGE PAIL KIDS (436) HAUGHTY HOLLY 4329 1 0 0 13 FLOWER GIRLS (189) BOMBATTA 4286 2 1 0 11 DRAGONS GUARD II (253) ELLIS TATE 4325 2 4 0 10 MIDDLE WAY 8 (351) -DRISKEL 4331 0 1 0 1 JADE WARRIORS (430) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn. THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN Revenge? PERSONAL ADS My, oh, my! A four and oh? A Duelmistress?! My Flower Girls must have been quite naughty and nice! -- Lady Fern Wei Yan -- You are such a little cutie-pie. Thanks for the lovely romp in the sand. It was, well, it was nice. Did you have fun? You were so nice to let me win. If you come to The Flower Shoppe to see me, I will make sure you win. (wink) -- Hateful Hasta Velvet Rose -- We gals sure got it on, didn't we? Girls just wanna have fun. I think I had the most. -- Petulant Pansy Dargon -- Perhaps you were a little outmanned? Or should I say outwomanned? I felt it! I really did. -- Gloating Gardenia Salina Rees -- It was long. (har har) It was fun. Did you, you know? -- Caustic Crocus No Flower Girl exploits to report on from The Face. Did anyone go and do well? The boss was quite unhappy that he didn't break 90 on any of the three tries on the golf course. (Does that really matter?) -- Lady Fern Health. Humility. Honor. -- Lady Fern, Flower Girls Lady Fern -- Well thank you for that. I have moved a team to Aruak City from DM 25 (they have been there for years, just sitting on their hands), this will be my 4th team there (my teams in DM 47 and 29 started life in DM 11). I have sent my team in DM 29 to DM 50, I see it has lots of snow, wind cold and trolls. Yeah, most of my game play is in slow arenas nowadays. So I'll be in Snowbound in Stormsend or Lambsborn on 524 or sooner. The lst time I went that way was Harvesmoon 8, 513 (10- 8-02). Did the the life Impacts go under new management? I see that the Coach is running them, but I remember them being managed by Smitty? If the Consortium can Dip me a style list and who-who in Snowbound that would be helpful. As for DM 28, I'll get back there one of these days, I mean it's only been 4 years sense I was last there. -- Liam P.S. Team name in DM 50 is Grave Dancers. Jorja -- I know Mantor is the big cheese in this whole area, but to ward the guildhouse and your yard, gee, talk about no solicitors. A flesh eating horse who's mad at losing its wings, hey, we could sneak it in to Ketchum's office over a long week end, think of the mess he'll have on his hands. Any you could tell Ski Mask that Ketchum is feeding the horse ducks. Speaking about Mantor, I saw Ellis Tate last night walking out of the house of Mytori Iron Hand with a young man, and Salina Rees was talking with a pristess of Chykarin at the Flower Shoppe, not sure what happened with the two of them, Hateful Hasta was leading up stairs. -- Liam Keia -- Sorry I didn't teach you better, a fast fight, may you win more than you lose. -- Corpse Rot Sun Qian -- Sometimes, following the rules of the road involves knowing what signs would be there, not what signs are visible. -- Hidden Yurishido -- The fine print will get you every time. -- Unreadable Driskel -- Defaced! -- Graffiti Sorry, but we've no time to do personal personals today. So-- To those we fought -- Good fight. -- We who fought you LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS HATEFUL HASTA was devastated by DARGON in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge fight. HIDDEN lost to URSILA RILVAR in a 2 minute gruesome Challenge battle. GLOATING GARDENIA was demolished by CONFLICT in a 1 minute uneven Title fight.
