DM 65 DAL SHANG (turn 542): IRONIC TWIST of THE MOTHERSHIP CE (Floyd, mgr.) SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly DAL SHANG games. GORBAN TEN SKORA caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested DENGAN THE TRADER and was awarded 12 points in recognition. Not for nothing has IRONIC TWIST in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7! But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades that is city DAL SHANG. Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more than its fair share of red in recent times. Must the anguished spirit of DILBERT toss forever in the grave unrevenged? Against the code, THE BLUE PILL has escaped his deed unpunished by CUBICLE CRUSADERS! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in DAL SHANG. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THE BLUE PILL 7201 14 2 1 108 THE MOTHERSHIP CE (743) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME LORAND TEN SORN 7138 20 15 1 76 SAND DANCERS (233) NORVAN TEN KOGAN 7245 8 2 0 73 SAND DANCERS (233) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -NAS 7212 3 1 1 54 LH CREW (744) KALDAN TEN KARAN 7205 13 11 0 51 SAND DANCERS (233) GORBAN TEN SKORA 7249 6 3 0 49 SAND DANCERS (233) -WARLAR 7209 2 2 1 38 LH CREW (744) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -ROXY MUSIC 7253 2 0 1 30 THE MOTHERSHIP CE (743) -SNOWMAN 7211 4 0 0 27 LH CREW (744) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -DDP 7210 2 2 1 13 LH CREW (744) -IRONIC IRONY 7252 1 0 0 13 THE MOTHERSHIP CE (743) EMBRON THE GREAT 7266 1 1 0 13 SAND DANCERS (233) -MIKE D 7213 1 0 0 10 LH CREW (744) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
