DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Huh, I bet Vardin lost to the Fanatic on purpose, just so he could stick ME, or
at least SOMEONE else with the title and the column. Well, heck. I don't have
anything of earth-shaking import to say.
Good try, Ebola Bob, but you were over-matched in that one.
Samildar
SPY REPORT
Much has changed in TROCAR since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Bein' on top is great
while it lasts, UNDESIRABLE'S. But how many friends do you have now? It seems so
recently people were saying SAI FULLAH was washed up, finished. But 3-1-0 moved them
up 1. I guess they're washed no more... What's with KHALIL? He actually beat
TROCAR's MAGE'S APPRENTICE, and walked away with 20 more points from the fight.
Laughs were big at TRADERS OF TROCAR while they watched ALLERDAE CHAN clobber EBOLA
BOB. He lost 5 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.
WILD-EYED FANATIC was reminded on the sands why SAMILDAR is Duelmaster. I suppose
you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. How well I know the feeling
of being the most challenged warrior, SYPHILIS SALLY! Don't make idle boasts, they
may come back to haunt you.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You
young rapscallions, take note!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. All work
and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and
good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Korasim -- I see next time I'll need to get a bigger stick. -- The Black Death
Sal Fullah -- I'm sorry for your loss. Khalil had a mosquito on him. I do hate
mosquitoes. -- Malaria Larry
Samildar -- That's twice I lost out on the title to a "Trader". -- Ebola Bob
Emnar Gorin -- I'll kneel before no one. -- Typhoid Mary
Mateen -- That was too quick. -- Syphilis Sally
Sal Fullah -- Welcome to Trocar. -- Silky, mgr. Undesirables
Well, drat. I never did trust Wild-Eyed Fanatics, but this is taking it too far.
May his weird deity eat him. -- Vardin Abeq
Lake Patrol? Heck, like I'm going out on the lake at THIS time of year? As if! --
Allerdae Chan
The Black Death -- Like I'm going to INVITE fleas, just for the thrill of catching
your thing? Not much, kiddo. -- Korasim
Typhoid Mary -- Tell me your day job is NOT working in the Infirmary. -- Emnar Gorin
Silky -- Ah, but if you want to debate grammar, you have to consider that the
apostrophe indicates that THEY are the possession of the Undesirable. Which I
suppose could work. And I know I get over-wrought on this sometimes, comes of being
a wordsmith. I have considered more than once making a protest by putting an
apostrophe before EVERY final ess in a whole turn's worth of personals, but I was
stopped from that by two things: The vehement annoyance of Our Editor and the
suspicion that most people wouldn't see anything wrong. The English language is
beautiful, flexible, and capable of great precision, it is my foremost working tool,
and I care about it. This is the pits. -- Jorja
A salute to all who fought in the last tourney, even though none of them are here to
acknowledge said salute. Come back, you guys! -- Jorja and the Traders of Trocar
