                                 WARRIOR INFORMATION
                         (Consortium recent grads May 2008)

     This information and these numbers are posted for informational purposes only.
Mainly developed for training/learning in DM93, The Newby Arena, the posting is also
being made in selected other arenas.
     This collection of appx 25 warriors includes the most recent, without exception,
ADM Consortium graduates.  Most have zero or limited tournament fights, but a couple
of the "better" warriors do have reasonable tournament time.  All of these warriors
were developed and "played" in varying active DM arenas.

     It's like so cool that I'm duelmaster again but such a bummer that.....what's
that?.....whaddya mean I lost it!.....How's that possible!  I'm so much hotter than
that *?!#*! sold out tampon sign!  [A 'lifecoach' takes her aside and whispers in her
ear]--Umm, like excuse me, but I'm really so like sorry that I lost the duelmaster
title thingy without like fighting, but you have to realize all the pressure on my
tiny little female shoulders between like walking red carpets, and all the photo-ops,
and just like looking this hot and partying this hard ['Lifecoach' again swoops down
and sternly warns her]--Umm, like I just want everyone to know how much I like love
and admire Golden Sombrero and how like worthy he is of the title stuff, and how
proud I am of being an ex-duelmaster, and if there were any place in the world I'd
want to be an ex from it'd definately be Telorinthe ['Lifecoach' scolds her violently
while pulling her own hair out]--Umm, like in the future I just wanna help all my
fellow Telorinthinans be all they can possibly be and if that means they're good at
like polishing my toenails or dry-cleaning my furs than I think to like each their
own and we all need to find our like speciality, ya know.  ['Lifecoach' retires] --
Gossipid  [ex-duelmaster now sponging off team spotlights for publicity]

                             Notes from the arena champ.

'Tis truly a sad day in the arena when the reigning Duelmaster doesn't fight, the
number one contender loses to a commission flunky, and still manages to become the
new Duelmaster.  I challenge back to Gossipid to offer him his rightful title, as
this simply feels like I've struck out

                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, TELORINTHE?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  If this keeps up, ZEITGEIST, you'll have 
to shine swords instead of use them.  A drop of 6 in the rankings?  PUNY ORC PELOTON 
turned their 2-3-0 turn into a 7th place rank in the listings this turn.  Any better 
than this, and you get put on hit lists.  Now let's all watch INVIDIOTS' heads swell 
from their 4-1-0 this turn.  Haa ha ha ha!  Big shots, big talk, big deal.  Of 
course, we're all terribly impressed to see TORPORTLY win a fight and gain 21 points, 
terribly.  Tsk, tsk, DRAGGIN' MAIN beat CYCLIDIA and CYCLIDIA lost 17 points.  You're 
breakin' my heart.  And if variety is the spice of life, TELORINTHE may be getting 
bland, as GOLDEN SOMBRERO stays top dog in the city.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks 
and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  
ZEITGEIST, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.  
Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And it looks like DEATH'S CHOSEN avoided 
them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.  
KALLOR was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.  Now was the DM 
insulted or feared?  Heh, heh.  Now here's guts and stupidity all rolled into one, 
BUZZ challenged up 26 to take on GOSSIPID of INVIDIOTS.  My sides still hurt from 
laughing about GOSSIPID losing and giving BUZZ 25 points of recognition.  Ha ha ha 
ha!!  And we have SIMPLETONGUE in a challenge, going down 11 points for the fight.  
Guess what?  I thought SIMPLETONGUE showed great skill and promise when he subdued 
KALLOR.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if 
the fate catches up with you sooner that later?   
     What does the TELORINTHE arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Phlllt!  Just had to do that 
before I leave the fine city of TELORINTHE.  I feel much better now.  Glad to see the 
back of this place-- Snide Clemens

Kung Fu Master beats the Golden Sombrero and the hat is still Duelmaster?  Gotta love
Telorinthe. -- The Oldies Scribe

Well, Ms. Scribe, I sorta like it.  I do. -- Coach

Steal Home -- Well, I have heard that the Baseball Gods are impressive, but, you
know, well, I shall leave it at that.  I will, though, say "REPENT"! -- Confession

Vodi -- Now you made me all sweaty and I was preserving this sweater, you know?  But
I guess another win notch helps. -- Letter Sweater

Helga Hoarfrost -- Did someone say you were ugly.  I think that is unfair, but, my,
you surely could use a lot of praying. -- Confession

Vengeance Hammer -- I cleaned up on that one, eh? -- Custodian

Foe -- Was that a fight?  I may as well have worked on the engine in the shop.
Salute. -- Draggin Main

Roid Floyd -- You rained on our parade.  Now I may have to see a doctor.  Do you know
any? -- Pep Rally

All -- Thanks for making this fine arena so competitive and so much fun. -- Coach

Lyrial -- We give you a one turn reprieve.  Best to not take the road less traveled.
-- Detour & Dark Oracle, foreseer of Bad Signs

Fi -- I thought Coach had something hiding up his sleeve. -- Steal Home

Fhume -- I've been known to cause a few fumes too. -- Bloody Stool

Morwel -- Seems golf is my game, and not dueling. -- 72 Over Par

JGW -- Your honor was not in question, it was your silence about your team that was
questioned.  Had I known the type of "tantrum" you were going to have, I would've
kept my own council regarding these matters.  I do not wish nor have I ever wished
that you Dark Arena your whole team, so for that I AM truly sorry. -- Dark Angel
Azaziel, mgr. Death's Chosen
P.S.  I will also try to keep my sarcasm to a minimum when addressing you, for it is
apparent that you are quite prickly!

Golden Sombrero -- Congrats on becoming Duelmaster!  Meet me at Michael's and I'll
buy you an Absynth! -- Azaziel

Michael -- Do you smell Orcs?  Oh, never mind I stepped in something quite foul! --
Azaziel

All -- Golden Sombrero?  Isn't that the type of hat worn during a unique type of
shower? -- The Mad Prophet

All -- Whoops, sorry, thought I was on maintenance, obviously not.  Hate losing a
duelmaster to negligence, won't happen again, my apologies. -- Sherman, mgr. Lit.
Loons

31 May 2008
Any and all who live in the 805 area, I would like for you to call me so we can get
together for BBQ's, softball games, and so on.  It has been a while since the last
get together (several years).  It was a blast and I am sure the next one will be
also.  We just have to do it.  All alliances are welcome.  Just because my warriors
leave your warrior beaten and bloody in defeat does not mean we can't have a beer or
five together.  I'll even buy the first round.  So call 805-588-3419 and ask for Dave
a.k.a. Misfit, former member of the Green and Purple Polka Dot Alliance (GAPPDA).
