     Well, what are you looking at, BLACKSTONE?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, BODY BY OTTO, since SUHT 
YOURSELF took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  With any luck, I 
can sneak into The Swinging Aardvark and join UNGENTLE BENS' celebration over their 
good record this turn.  6th place, not bad.  If The Swinging Aardvark is buying 
drinks for MOMMA'S BOY's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before long.  A 
1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into The Swinging Aardvark 
and join THE MENTORS RETURN's celebration over their good record this turn.  12th 
place, not bad.  If The Swinging Aardvark is buying drinks for PROJECT MAYHEM 32's 
good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before long.  A 1-0-0 makes for a big 
thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into The Swinging Aardvark and join ANIME LEGENDS 
10's celebration over their good record this turn.  17th place, not bad.  If The 
Swinging Aardvark is buying drinks for ROOKIE CRUE 27's good turn, I'm afraid the 
place will be dry before long.  A 1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  Why not, I'm having 
a good day, so I feel sorry for PROJECT MAYHEM 12, who went 0-1-0 and dropped 24 into 
35th.  Here's my pity, for what it's worth.  Gee, I'm impressed, a 3-1-1 is nice, but 
don't get cocky, SUHT YOURSELF, the Fates teach humility, and the Fates are proud.  
Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see AIRLESS KESTREL win a fight and gain 
119 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, VENEMOUS CONCUBINE beat BERRY THE CHOPPER and BERRY 
THE CHOPPER lost 11 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  Due to absence, and inability 
to defend the throne, TERRIFIC has lost the Title of Duelmaster.  Start setting that 
alarm earlier!  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as AIRLESS KESTREL takes 
the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  I'm not in a 
very good mood today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to know what's new, 
don't you, BLACKSTONE?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  WILD 
THINGS, 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 BODY BY OTTO avoided 
them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.  Ooh, 
I'm frightfully impressed, PLANET BOOM was this turn's most challenged warrior.  
Watch that ego swell, sports fans.  I guess I can give a little credit to WHITE 
CLIFFS of UNGENTLE BENS for challenging up by 18 to PLANET BOOM.  WHITE CLIFFS lost 
to get 2 points of recognition.   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for BLACKSTONE's 
morgue.  More variety.  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.  
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.   
     What does the BLACKSTONE arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Well, I've had enough of this 
drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Paste 
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide 
Clemens

                             HALLOWEEN TOURNAMENT UPDATE

	It has come to our attention that a warrior, Voodoo Toad 85-14776, was sent to 
the Dark Arena and slain in order to be classed as a Dead Challenger in this past 
Halloween Tournament.  As this warrior is a Zombie, this was against the rules because 
immortal warriors may not challenge the Dark Arena.  (An exception is granted so a 
warrior may challenge the Dark Arena on his very last turn after receiving an 
invitation to Advanced Duelmasters, so he can show his prowess with the Dark Arena 
monsters, but this may not be used as a method of classing in the dead tournament if 
he happens to die in the night fight.) 
	To correct this injustice, we changed the fight result for all warriors who 
lost to Voodoo Toad to a win for that turn.  This gave two warriors, Crazy 54 84-11494 
of Crazy 88 15 and Sarokith 84-30929 of Dub O Dubs, an ending record of 8-3, which 
grants them Tournament Victor status and resurrection. 
	We realize this is not a perfect solution but hope it will make some amends 
for the warriors who lost to this misclassed warrior.
