I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Woof! CONJURE UP THE SUN were a bunch of dogs after WETWORKS got through with 'em! 3rd ain't so sweet as 1st! What's with ECLIPSE? He actually beat SCORPIO'S LIKES:'s MAINE, and walked away with 17 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at CONJURE UP THE SUN while they watched VAMPIRE ON FIRE clobber SIX FLAGS. It lost 9 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. KHALHUMS DWARF was reminded on the sands why MOTHER-IN-LAW is Duelmaster. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough! If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. How well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, WETWORKS! The bums at BAD SIGNS couldn't face the challenges from WETWORKS! No excuse for that! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, MAINE! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. Fighting is a better craft than farming, WAYJOURNER, but you have to pay your dues. Being challenged by HEAT WAVE, 25 points above you, is dues. HEAT WAVE left the match looking worse than when he went in, after WAYJOURNER, with a 0-2-0, walked all over him. HIRED BY TRUMP of BAD SIGNS knows how to pick 'em. He challenged NIKE of WETWORKS who is up by 21. Now was this a wise move? HIRED BY TRUMP perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he was subdued by NIKE and ended up with 63 recognition points. Warriors of TELORINTHE unite. You have only your games to lose! COP AT YOUR DOOR, with his forgettable 5-5-1, was killed by CAPTURED ORC in a forgettable match. BAD SIGNS didn't seem to mind very much. Is it my imagination, or are fighters getting younger every day? To die so young, so gloriously! Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt. TELORINTHE is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.

Name Change-o-Rama -- Final Update Algernon looked at the goats and sighed. No doubt it was a Good Deed to give goats to people who wanted them. But why did the goats have to be gathered in HIS office? Four of them, and they were a lot like gladiators: not smelly maybe, they were clean goats, but pushy and sure they were the most important thing around. Maybe they should be enrolled in the arena? No, there were only four, not enough for a team. He shook his head to clear it of the image of armored goats with sharpened horns. One thing at a time. He pulled a piece of paper out of his desk drawer, dipped his pen in the ink, and began to write. "It is our pleasure and honor to note that ninety-eight gladiators and teams have elected to change their names, supporting the contribution of goats to deserving people. With the Commission's matching funds, this has purchased four goats--a good goat can't be purchased for a copper, you know. The goats are already en route to their new homes, where they will be--" He paused and thought about it. "--very welcome. We wish all the best to the goats and the new goat-owners."
