DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Good gods, Dan, what were you doing over there? Yes, I can see, slicing the
air, but didn't you remember that this is the arena and you're supposed to go after
your opponent? I mean, yes, you got that air sliced to a fare-thee-well, AND picked
up some good skills in the process, but you left ME with the column to write.
Dililah Frann
SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report. Sit
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis. Hey everybody,
watch out for DOBAHEI, who flew up 11 points in the rankings after mashing FREM HARID
like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten
was BIG 'UN, who dropped 7 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with
EBRIA GANNET. IN HIDING got through to the Duelmaster this turn. No doubt he was
more than anxious to kick DILILAH FRANN's tail out of the throne! It's a proud day
for the YIELD stable, as their warrior, IN HIDING, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.
4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming at that
location.
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the ROCANIS arena. Here's a
song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad THEM? Big bad THEM. Big bad THEM.
ROCANIS' afraid of the big bad THEM. Tra la la la la! And you guys like to boo me?
Well, unsling your rasberries, cause YIELD beats feet every time THEM smiles at them.
Try farming, eh? Can any one out there say 'weasel'? Oh well, just saying PURPLE
KITTEN will do. She challenged 24 points down to trash ABELINDA CHASE. Definition
of petty: PURPLE KITTEN bested ABELINDA CHASE, a mismatch of 24 points.
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time
is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian,
but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. Its been real, and its been fun,
but it hasn't been real fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster

Greetings All -- This is Vincent Michaels, "the Rake", mgr. of the Stormbringers out
of DM 33 Niatoli Island, back after a relatively long layoff. I come back to my
arena to find only two other teams there. Terrible! I'm calling on all you managers
out there who have inactive teams in Niatoli to put them back in the game. Also,
anyone else who wants to come check out our little island are welcome. Good food and
a lot of good gambling, and you will have a chance to smack around Gen. GirlPants and
his band of Ravaged Queens. Great fun. Come one, come all!
