DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Look, I have had it with DM Columns. And, I will not put up with it any more because I
am a Lord Protector! A seven time Duelmaster! Eat your hearts out, Humans or Shews or
Trolls or Dwarfs or whatevers. Animals rule!
-- Goshawk DMVII
SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! SAND DANCERS had cause to celebrate, after
HALO GREEN got 18 points by beating MONGOOSE. MONGOOSE certainly had a baffled
expression on his face, after losing to HALO GREEN and losing 14 points in the
process! Well, Duelmaster GOSHAWK Dark Arena Challenged DARK ARENA's STENRO
BLACKBROWS. Is a 16-4-0 good enough? The crowds were amazed this turn, as STENRO
BLACKBROWS killed the Duelmaster, GOSHAWK, leaving FEROCIOUS ANIMALS in mourning.
Even 78 points weren't good enough to save GOSHAWK from SKUNK. DAYLA KIV welcomes
SKUNK as the new Duelmaster! So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable
walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from
the lion, so did the "warriors" in DAYLA KIV avoid SATAN'S SINGLES 2. As a woman of
good breeding scorns the "warriors" of FEROCIOUS ANIMALS, so did that sorry team shy
from SATAN'S SINGLES 2
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Oh hard! that
to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Do not think spyreporting in DAYLA KIV is the highlight of my life. My fingers
tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable
character. Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid DAYLA KIV
farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
I will only say this. 4-0. A Duelmaster. A Lord Protector. A Great Manager. -- Lion
Tamer
Follow me animals of the world. We are doing it here and can do it all over the globe.
-- Lion Tamer
Taran ten Salth -- Sincerest apologies for my churlish behavior. I've always been
ostracized -- occupational hazard, I suppose -- and for once I desired to hang out
with the cool kids. Wanting to be liked is a weakness of mine. I hope you can
forgive me! -- Exogenous Shock
We congratulate Goshawk. Go pollinate 'em! -- the Sand Dancers
P.S. Shouldn't you be male to do all that pollination?
Goshawk -- Good job. Do a column, of course? -- Loris ten Jole
P.S. Jorja's annoyed with us for an oh-five turn and bottom team on the move. Maybe
my replacement will liven things up. But at least it won't be MY problem any more.
Retirement looks good.
Exogenous Shock -- I hope you go to the tourney and DIE there. -- Taran ten Salth
Skunk -- Good thing I like tomato juice. -- Alden Denny
Bull -- Not what I'd hoped for. -- Halo Green
Rabid Rat -- I hope the animal control people catch you! I hope someone poison's you!
Die, dammit. -- Felter the Lame
