DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Oh, DRAT. I didn't want this title. Sure, it's an honor (sort of, considering
how I got it), and it's political points to graduation and life, but it comes with
obligations, too. This column, for one. The requisite public demo before the next
cycle of fights. The big party with the arena sponsors. That last one is the worst:
I have nothing to WEAR! Guys have it easy, if THEY go in their armor, it's cool,
macho, really BAD, whatever. But if I do it...gods, the looks I get! And the worst
of it is, I don't really look good in anything EXCEPT armor. Goes with being a
fighting-golem. Being the Duel2Dudette is no picnic!
Keta
SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive
observation?) as FAVORITE GUYS can attest... Practice pays for CHILLILI CHES, who
pummelled GUILLOTINE, to pocket 14 points. RANDY certainly had a baffled expression
on his face, after losing to BIG BAD BRADY and losing 10 points in the process! Like
a flirtacious debutante, JURINE's Duelmaster KETA found herself the woman of the
hour, being "invited to dance" 2 times! The arena was more crowded than usual this
time, as MUDVAYNE faced JURINE's Duelmaster. What can be a greater victory?
MUDVAYNE has taken his place as the top, as JURINE's new Duelmaster. Word has it one
team in JURINE is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Perhaps the warriors of BLACK PEARL
should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... As a woman of good
breeding scorns the "warriors" of PATRIOTIC, so did that sorry team shy from BLACK
PEARL
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
All good things must come to an end. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond
my control, I must take my leave of this place. Can anything compare to the pleasure
of writing Spyreports for JURINE? On that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny

Just a reminder to all you online type people. It is much appreciated if you send
your personals in PLAIN TEXT, rather than HTML or formatted text. HAL, in his
infinite wisdom, doesn't DO formatting, which means having to unsnarl your personal
ads from bunches of extraneous...stuff. So, if your e-mailer has a plain text
option, let it be your friend. -- Ed.
P.S. Sometimes it's the formatted text which makes ads go astray. Not often, but
sometimes.
