DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Greetings everyone,
It is turn #350 and another Cultist sits on the DM Throne of Shadowspire! In a
way, I wish I could stay longer, but with the increase of Orcs and Rats in here, the
air quality is less than desirable.
Just like the last Cult graduate, I was aptly named by Otto! I am ravishing with
my strawberry blond hair and my toned abs and legs, but you all know that already!
My overall stats are 14(2)-11-7-15-17-11-11. The GC says I favor a high OE and
high AL and I'm adept with the shortsword, pffft!
I wish you all good luck in the future, and let's make Shadowspire Great Again!
Lady Protector,
Pretty Petunia
SPY REPORT
Welcome back to fun times and murder sands that we call Shadowspire! It was a busy
turn this week with challenges, down challenges, graduations, a new Duelmaster . . .
whew! See, I told ya bums it was busy! Okay, we have lots to cover, so let's not
waste any time with idle chatter or talking about the weather, which is gorgeous by
the way!
We will start where we also start with the Duelmaster fight! Pretty Petunia took the
throne and got invited, so this was going to be her last turn in Shadowspire, one way
or another. We had a rematch of the title fight from the last cycle as Pretty Petunia
matched up with Bouvines again. The result was the same too, so we have to look at
recognition for our new top dog! If the title fight was too much deja vu for you,
don't look too hard at the big chair! Pavil fought Bat Penatar in our actual title
fight. The truth of the matter is Bat challenged Pavil. I'm not sure if she knew it
was going to morph into a title fight! Pavil wins and becomes Duelmaster once again!
Congrats on the throne, but more importantly, congrats on getting invited to the Isle
of the Eye! Pavil hit the 50 arena fight mark, so I am unsure if he ever picked up
those last few skills he was trying to learn.
The most avoided team for the turn looks to be Darque Ages. They were mostly avoided
by Pray the Gods. Darque Ages went 3-2 and Pray the Gods had a 1-4 turn. The two
teams did not meet, so I cannot comment on the effectiveness of the avoidance
strategy. The most challenged warrior for our monumental turn 350 is LEEEEEROOOOY
JENKINS! Oh, pardon me! I have trouble saying that name in a normal voice. Leeroy
charged in and challenged Mim Jorrison and it paid off as Mr. Jenkins got the win.
There were 40 fights and 24 challenges. Great news! This means managers are paying
attention . . . mostly! Of those 24 challenges, 6 were against the Dark Arena and 2
were blood feuds. I mentioned in the intro that there were a few deaths too. One
came when Hotter Pocket feuded Angrist and killed him. It wasn't pretty, but
vengeance rarely is! I'm Drunk from Inebriation went down 27 points to fight Dogpile
of Kill 'Em All. No one was shocked when I'm Drunk won. In what can only be called
karmic action, Kill 'Em All's Tomahawk challenged down to fight Inebriation's
Abrasive. There was a surprise in this one as Tomahawk killed Abrasive. I sense this
feud will be fun to watch for the next 4 turns!
Cult of Bacchus slips into 1st place with one kill over Wicked Martyrs. It seems odd
that only 5 teams in the arena have a winning record over the last 3 turns. Mirkwood
Orcs, our former top team, fall to 3rd place. They are followed by Inebriation and
Kill 'Em All. Big Lake Solution plummeted from 3rd to 13th, which is our biggest drop
for the turn. Kill 'Em All's move from 9th to 5th is the biggest gain.
Okay, I am out of here! I will see you bums in 2 weeks. Here are the facts for next
turn:
1. We will have a new Duelmaster.
2. Blood feuds are in the forecast.
3. Down Challenges are almost assured.
4. Some managers have highly questionable hygiene practices.
5. Some managers took offense (and note) of #4.
Until next time!
Huard DePriest

Huard DePriest -- What? Is it Spy Reporter Appreciation Month? Did you lobby The
Commission for another holiday? First of all, I didn't realize you had that kind of
money. And Second, do you really need anymore vacation time? Why, if I had some coin
for everytime my stable clawed their way to the top team only to find a computer
generated mess. Or when I pull off a perfect 5-0 turn there is Mr. Huard DePriest
ignoring me in the spy report, yet again. Not to mention all my glorious kills here
in Shadowspire. And now I'm supposed to "appreciate" you?? ...what's that... You
talked about me last turn? You mentioned my name? That's crazy talk!! -- Weirdo
Pavil -- I think I have just unearthed dinosaur skills! -- Terminator
Ridwan -- I won. Good riddance. -- Leeroy
Jumanji -- I gotta stop using my face as a shield. -- Rat Catcher
DeGotti -- Thanks for the welcome. As for old battles, you'll have to refresh my
memory. It's pretty much like swiss cheese. Full of holes. As for Rodent Clan, no
clue who they are. -- Boss Rat/Orc
Shadowspire looks to have a pretty solid core of teams. Just two new teams. I think
I'm going to like it here. -- Boss Rat/Orc
Vladimir -- I survived! I won! I won a daily double. -- Angrist
Marcia Lyons -- I guess that OHS Alumni aren't leading the nation in academic success,
as that challenge was not the brightest! -- Roxstar
Big Clowny -- I think you need to revamp your strategy. -- Finlegh
