DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
A standby? Does nobody CARE who has the title of Best Professional Duelist of
Daiyla Kiv? This is so embarrassing, and to be honest, my presence in this position
is so accidental and meaningless....
Ronsevan
SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, CHAVEZ RAVINE? Ain't you never seen Snide
Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, STONED, since SAND
DANCERS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course, we're
all terribly impressed to see CHESSARA win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly.
Tsk, tsk, CHESSARA beat SAM THE SLUG and SAM THE SLUG lost 13 points. You're
breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, CHAVEZ RAVINE may be getting
bland, as RONSEVAN stays top dog in the city. The Crystal Wheel, humph! I've tasted
better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From CHAVEZ RAVINE's trash
dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. Gee, CORPS, ain't it past due for sending ARM Dark
Arena? What took ol' '9-4-1' so long? Hope? Ha ha aha ha! Now hey, I like to see
a death as much as the next guy, but hey CORPS, whyja send ARM to the Dark Arena,
look at his record, huh? Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through
use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Phlllt! Just had to do that before
I leave the fine city of CHAVEZ RAVINE. I feel much better now. I see the crowds
are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
Iron Maiden -- Shouldn't you be a woman? I was so upset when you weren't that I fear
I was...severe. Good thing you quit when you did. I would probably have dis-armed
you, otherwise. -- Chessara
It is so tedious when the standbys "lacks the deftness to use his weapon," or
something similar. The only redeeming grace is that he lost. To have been defeated
by such an inept would have been...not good. -- Garmon Chang
P.S. And could such a clumsy-handed scribe have succeeded in a life of white-collar
crime?
P.P.S. Oh, right. Of course. He didn't succeed, and that's why he was in the
arena....
Ice Titan -- It's the wrong weather for you, isn't it? Not that I'm complaining. --
Korba Klee

I have returned after a five-year absence. I expect all tithes, gifts and bequeaths
to resume as normal. -- Magic Man
4 May 2005
Several questions have been asked about Slaughter's Challenge that I'd like to
address and clarify.
1) All Prizes must be used on the contest team, this includes the resurrection.
Remember any fast arena team should be able to transfer to a slow arena
(except for arena 82, I believe).
2) Warriors will be allowed to fight and run in the dead tourney, should there
be one, and return if an opening can be made without breaking the rules
(i.e. only one DA fight allowed per team).
3) If you win your single DA match you do not get another. It's one use of the
Dark Arena win or lose so if you want him/her/it dead be sure and throw the
match!
4) The resurrection potion's longevity has been extended by the commission to 6
months but the other potions (favorites, and +1 bonus) must still be used
within 2 turns and on a 5 FE or higher warrior. The resurrection can go on
any warrior regardless of FE.
Street Legal
P.S. My thanks to those already entered (Hammer, The Consortium, Tripwire, Stik, and
Shaman) and hope many more find a reason to come to arena 54. Again, my email is
triumph1971@hotmail.com or you can diplo me in arena 14 at THE DEATH SQUAD (63) if
you need more info!
