DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
How you feelin', Spencer? Whooped you down pretty easy. Need to get your rest
if you're gonna fight for a crown. Couldn't believe your eyes when I slipped by your
shots, could ya? Well Ray, you're a bad matchup for me but I'll give you a go.
Adios, Anders; glad to see you go! A true disgrace to Valamantis.
Dawnracer
SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for VALAMANTIS. Uncool, SADISTS F2F II. I
mean 0-1-0 is bad. Will they will be allowed to fight? I say use 'em for training
practice! LEGION OF LEGEND like really fought hard to move up to 12th from 18th.
Way to go! What was the name of that team who got 4-1-0 this turn for a total
112-115-7 you ask? (Sure) AS SEEN ON TV's their name, and fighting's their game!
MVP award for CARSON DAILY? LATE SHOW's proud of him after beating NAMES and getting
22 points. Talk about yer major upsets! JACOB's match with DAVID LETTERMAN cost him
a loss of 19 points! Like, RAY must be pretty gutsy! He challenged the Duelmaster
from MITHRAL HALO. Does this guy have a death wish or what! Was that a tear I saw
in RAY's eye, as he took over Duelmastership? And wasn't DAWNRACER fit to be tied!
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. The warriors of THE DEN OF SWORDS must be getting lonely. They
were the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? I don't know
what SAMURAI KIDS II's been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights
from THE DEN OF SWORDS, that's fer sher. Can SOCCER STUDS' DIEGO MARADONA be more
popular than me? He was challenged the most, but is that really the same? BETTER
NOT DIE must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He challenged
ARSENIO HALL. 8 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought
BETTER NOT DIE showed great skill and promise when he defeated ARSENIO HALL. All
right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. Like, who is this guy??? CHI CHI gets
sent to the Dark Arena, battles SHEWISH GIANT, and returns to tell of it!!! I bet
THE BOLT 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 know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really
should stop. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Seraphim -- Sorry I have been slow to welcome you to Valamantis. I have been a
little behind lately and have been lucky just to get my warriors to the arena on
time. -- Indimar Fallon
Bet Or Not Die -- You quit just in time. My intent was to cut you into little
pieces. Nothing personal, just a reminder that he who lives by the down challenge
often dies by the bigger down challenge in the bloodfeud. But this time you survived
and got a sweet learn. I have had my revenge but my stablemates may yet take a shot
at you. -- Lord Protector Euro Steamer
All -- Bid farewell to Euro Steamer: 11-15-10-17-17-3-11 Ad ex:init-par Mstr:att BS
Mod/Very low learn:par. -- Indimar
SunGod -- I would be the first to say Tmoney is an arrogant little pup. Your quarrel
with him is your own business. I just wanted to let you know that you have opened a
can of worms. He may be a young manager but he is a tenacious opponent. You may
have just become the enemy he has waited for his whole life. You could compare him
to a badger--well, maybe not a badger, but some type of nasty little varmint or a
rodent with a bad attitude. -- Indimar Fallon
Barnabas -- Congrats on Dawnracer taking the throne. I always kind of liked that
name. Best of luck holding the top spot. -- I.F.
Sungod -- If YOU check past newsletters, you will find that Running downchallenged
Jacob. I'm not complaining about downchallenging, but I just wanted to let everyone
know that you're not quite the honorable manager you are trying to let us know that
you are.... -- Hombre
Barnabas -- Gee, nice of you to pop back in.... -- your pal, Hombre
Tmoney -- Congratulations on you invite with Anders! And just a shade under 50
fights too. -- Hombre
Made a Combo -- Win or lose. I win! Thanx. -- Arsenio Hall
Crysalis -- I had to hit you with the shocker! -- Carson Daily
Ninjato -- Die hard = doesn't die easy. Remember that. -- Bruce Willis
Skumwall -- (Jimmy Kimmel picks up a piece of a shield off the ground and bites it.)
Tastes skummy. -- Jimmy Kimmel
Isara Enteze -- You made me angry. Eh he he he. Hee! Hoo! Ah! I don't like that.
-- David Letterman
Meat Pak -- Hey, what's your manager name? You've had a bad start. Two turns
doesn't make a career, however. Your luck may turn around. I started 0-8. So, I
know what it's like. I could probably help you out. Good luck. -- Jeffrizzel the
bizzel foshizzel
Barnabas -- You've got a Duelmaster now. I don't know if you will have it for very
long. Better keep your fingers crossed. -- Jeffrizzel
Seraphim -- Yeszwoo it'szzzz a kazoo. Zwooooo! -- Jeffrizzel

WE'RE LOOKING FOR A FEW GOOD MANAGERS! If you think you have what it takes to match
wits and blades with some of the best managers in Alastari, then WE WANT YOU! The
Tournament Of The Golden Scrod #4 will begin in Aradi (DM 60) the turn after the Fall
Mail-In. It's not too late for you to sign up. I realize that many of you may be
hesitant after seeing that myself and Hombre have teamed up again, but we'll try to
take it easy on you guys a little bit. For more information on T#%S IV, please
contact me at ganolus@aol.com. We're looking for a few good managers...the few, the
proud, the TOGS!

An Announcement Concerning the Brotherhood of the Blade Alliance:
I have chosen to withdraw my membership from the Brotherhood of the Blade
alliance. The years I have spent in the alliance have been the best of my DM career.
I leave the alliance with many great friends and will always remain close to my
former brethren.
The Brotherhood of the Blade will not skip a beat without my membership. It
remains in very capable hands and its roster is among the strongest in the game.
With the return on some of its founding members to DM, I know the BOB will continue
to grow in strength and prestige in the years to come. -- The Sandman
