DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
I was reluctant to face you, Stunning Inlay, a style preference. And, indeed, you
dragged the fight out more than I like, and no skills for me. Still, a win and a
title is good. Thanks.
-- March Hare
SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of LIN TIRIAN! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Woof! SAND DANCERS were
a bunch of dogs after PERRY COUNTY got through with 'em! 2nd ain't so sweet as 1st!
What's with MY RULE OF THUMB? He actually beat SAND DANCERS' BOBWHITE, and walked
away with 17 more points from the fight. Major screwup at SAND DANCERS. EPHRAIM
lost 10 points to AGONY. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe EPHRAIM will provide
more easy wins... Another fighter (CANNELTON 17-11-1) challenged another Duelmaster
(MARCH HARE 17-16-0). Life goes on. I can barely restrain my enthusiam for PERRY
COUNTY's outstanding member, Duelmaster CANNELTON. Wouldn't it be nice to have live
subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted
prisoners.
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. LIN
TIRIAN thinks PANTS SOUP 002 and their 4-7-1 is too much! If at first you don't
succeed, give up... Management must be dealin', as the boys at PERRY COUNTY ain't
reelin'! PANTS SOUP 002's mad! How well I know the feeling of being the most
challenged warrior, BOBWHITE! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt
you.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills,
fight dirty.
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
Are you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm
writing it before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...--
Olaf Modeen

March Hare! Duelmaster! Salute. -- Smitty
Stunning Inlay, you still around? 20-10 wasn't enough? We are voting for you! -- Perry
Countians
Only a 2-3 in The Mailer for Dented and Carved Heart? How are we ever going to get
them howlin' out of here?! -- Perry County
Jenson, my pleasure. -- Leopold
Trouser Chowder, that is some kind of sloppy soup you have, but what the heck, I
enjoyed the win. -- Tobinsport
Bob Bob White? -- Cannelton
Captain's Log, gee; that hurt! -- St. Croix
Perry County, home for 20+ years. -- Smitty
Cannelton -- I'd like to bob you in a river and see what effect it has. -- Bobwhite
My Rule of Thumb -- If I could've got that thumb off you, things would have been
different. -- Medio Cur
Leopold -- I hope someone drops a desk on you! (Note the Leopolds in my home town made
big heavy desks of wood and leather. You deserve one.) -- Jenson
That was a snub from the fans. They didn't think I was literate and able to
appreciate a scribe, or a beggar. Well, I don't appreciate beggars even if they are
persistant (note misspelling). But I'll take the win. -- Ephraim
P.S. No skills, of course.
