DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Once again, Rocanis, I greet you as your Duelmaster. With Captain Caveman crawling
back into his cave until the next tourney I plan to be here until graduation
(hopefully only one more turn before the invite comes?). Thanks to Mountain Goat for
another 3 skills and a Master in Init. Sorry about the shot to the neck, I was
aiming a lot lower...but then I guess I don't need to really apologize to a guy with
3 kills, huh? To those of you wondering what a tenaculum really is...let's just say
that if you saw one you'd cringe. I ain't pretty but I get the job done. Well Goat,
you're the only one in reach, guess it's rematch time!
Tenaculum
SPY REPORT
I can't believe the violence in ROCANIS! I still haven't told Mom I'm writing
Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... MVP award for PALOMINO?
REDHORSE's proud of her after beating CANDY APPLE and getting 14 points. Talk about
yer major upsets! CANDY APPLE's match with PALOMINO cost her a loss of 12 points!
Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think TENACULUM should let
MOUNTAIN GOAT be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Is the
Duelmaster really being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff.
Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All ROCANIS ever talks about is fighting!
Me, I'm more laid back. Like, who is this gal??? 4-0 PROLENE gets sent to the Dark
Arena, battles NAIRON, and returns to tell of it!!! I bet GENERAL SURGERY manager is
surprised! 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. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Rose Hips -- Is that anything like 'chicken lips'? Whatever, I don't belong here,
good-bye cruel girl! -- Monoject
Applemint -- Wow, I must be faster than I thought. No challenges left around here, I
plan to try out some night fighting. -- 4-0 Prolene
Mountain Goat -- Well...I'd beaten a few folks by pretending to be an AB...doesn't
work on lungers I guess.... -- 4-0 Prolene
Broken Toe -- Wow, dodging crits like that, you'll have a hard time convincing me
there's anything wrong with your toe! -- Eleven Blade
Palomino -- We're sorry, DA23 can't come to the door right now. Please leave a
message at the funeral...beep!
Arnie's Army -- Huh, Arnie must work at GNC, I guess. -- Darkfist (General Surgery)
4-0 Prolene -- You wanted to be the only survivor of our fight? How awful! I
thought we were FRIENDS, and you tried to KILL me! I am so shocked. So grieved.
Disconsolate. -- Applemint
P.S. And I didn't like the way you said I was a fine opponent, either. Like you
didn't really mean it. Talk about a sneer!
These priests of Mytori are pushovers. Hah! -- Deadfall
Javelino -- If someone comes along and sees a pig like you with an apple like me in
your mouth, they'll think you're ready for roasting, and I'll be GLAD. I think you
SHOULD be roasted. (thoughtful pause) Mesquite coals, yeah, that'd be best.... --
Jonathannie
Hedgehog -- I just took some of the advice we're always getting (like these spy
reporters had any IDEA how to be a gladiator!), took a dagger, honed it with my
years, or maybe that was the other way around, and shaved you close. No hedgehog
bristles now, you untidy wretch. -- Bitter Vetch
The Mage's Apprentice is an ABSOLUTE wuss. Worthless in the arena. -- Candy Apple
P.S. And he only taught me one skill. He obviously doesn't know ANYTHING really
USEFUL.
Tenaculum -- Are you sure you like that weapon? Oh well, with the three skills I
taught you, you ought to make better use of it. -- Mountain Goat
P.S. I have a secret admirer.
Eleven Blade -- Damn, I hate those groin hits. Any day you get a groin hit in the
arena is like a living nightmare. The only remedy is to get totally drunk. -- Broken
Toe
P.S. Hope you enjoy those three skills.
Wormy -- Here's a nice, juicy raspberry to go with them apples. -- Broken Toe
Jonathannie -- All of my team made a pact to try and teach at least three skills last
turn, and I'm glad I held up my end of it. Thanks for the win though. -- Javelino
28 January 2004
All -- I send out this invitation to all teams and managers. A new Alliance has been
formed. The Living Essences Alliance is being formed to join forces in an effort to
eliminate common foes and to help the joined warriors grow and learn to the best of
their abilities by offering suggestions and advice. It doesn't matter what arena
you're in, or if you're in another alliance already, as of today. This Alliance is
open to one and all! If you are interested in joining, please DIPLO me, or send a
personal ad to DM 93's newsletter. If you wish to join beyond March 2004, send a PA
to DM 82. Come join the fun! -- Dagan LifeGiver, mgr. Shadow Warriors (DM 93)
28 January 2004
This notice is to formally introduce our young alliance, CHAOS INC. We consist of
APEX, FLAGG, MATRIX, ASSAMITE, and now RUDE BUDDHA. If we aren't already there, we
WILL be coming to an arena near you soon! Hope to see you all at the ZALCON II.
4 February 2004
Greeting from Jhans, DM 36 -- In 2 turns the kLk will host our first annual "St.
Valentines Day Massacre" in Jhans, arena 36. (Kill Contest) The contest will begin
on turn 450. It will run for 10 turns. On turn 461 the winners will be announced.
There will be 3 separate categories, the team with the most kills, the alliance with
the most kills, and the warrior with the most kills. For the manager of the team
with the most kills a PRIZE of 10 ROLL-UPS will be rewarded (or $50 deposited into
his account). No need to declare yourself in the personals. If you are in DM 36,
you will be part of the contest whether you like it or not. We encourage as much
trash talk as you'd like. All teams, managers, and alliances invited. Please
contact Polarius (mgr. of Blitzkrieg) in DM 36 with questions. Or you can email me
at jamieptmo@hotmail.com. Good luck and see you in the sands. -- Polarius
25 February 2004
Readers, and especially those who volunteered warriors -- My apologies for the sudden
lack of episodes. I've been sick, but expect to be back at the keyboard soon. -- the
Scribe
