    '##/###' Avoid teams by their Team Id     '-'  Team did not fight this turn

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     "The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon HOME GUARD, 
for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned!"  Some days I really love that guy.  Talk about 
having a solid brass pair!
     "And how sociable are HOME GUARD's warriors?  Come, let us see."  Not sociable 
enough to write personals.  "Perhaps the warriors of WOMEN LOVE ME FOR MY should take 
up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team...  The warriors of WOMEN LOVE ME 
FOR MY found their efforts at combat frustrated as HERE TO PHOENIX apparently had 
more important things to do than fight."  And more of the same.  He never learns any 
new lines.  Well, no wonder, you need brains to learn, and he's a little short in 
that capacity.  The only other point of interest he had was that 50 Sucks was most 
challenged.  Big deal.

     QUONSET (10-4990) (27-21-0,77) of QUBIT fought MORADOR (2-5089) (27-10-1,70) of 
RESURRECTION.  QUONSET beat MORADOR in a 2 minute fray.  Yelling, "Hut!  Hut!" all 
the time.  Ol' Quonset is a little odd, maybe, but not the oddest warrior on the Isle 
by a long chalck.
     PUTZ'N ALONG (60-5437) (33-31-0,77) of JOKA MASHER! fought HERMY (101-4) (0-0-
0,50) of Really Bored Fans.  PUTZ'N ALONG luckily beat HERMY in a 13 minute bloody 
match.  And if Hermy was bored before the fight, it's nothing to the way she felt at 
the end.  Thirteen minutes?  And people call Putz a gladiator!
     ELENA (63-2356) (15-4-0,63) of SITTIN' ON ACES fought MAN O' WAR (15-4517) (22-
10-1,82) of TRIPLE CROWN.  ELENA won victory over MAN O' WAR in a crowd pleasing 2 
minute fight.  You know how it goes, women just can't seem to get enough of horses, 
and the crowds love to see a woman ride.  Quite a sight, too, made a lot of people's 
day.
     CREDIT LINE (82-1366) (0-14-0,51) of WOMEN LOVE ME FOR MY fought GAR & BRILL 
(38-4252) (24-35-0,44) of JUST BECAUSE.  CREDIT LINE was handily defeated by GAR & 
BRILL in a 1 minute mismatched match.  Too bad CL didn't get matched with a woman, 
who might have loved him.  But G&B is, uh, not a woman.  So just take that CL to 
stand for Chopped Liver.
     EVIL ELMO (99-1222) (9-1-4,32) of TWISTED SESAME fought PINK BEAR (36-5883) (23-
11-1,79) of LITTLE GIRLS LIKE...  EVIL ELMO narrowly defeated PINK BEAR in a 4 minute 
gory one-sided bout.  I asked a little girl about this match, seemed like the thing 
to do.  Gods, they start 'em young on arena fandom these days!  Just a little thing, 
she was, but she really liked the gore.  Elmo, she said, had to be evil, though, if 
he was going to do all that to the Bear.  Well, okay, she said the pink was over the 
top, and the Bear should've been blue, but other than that....  And hey, you can't 
doubt the word of a little girl!
     KOOKABURRA (33-4151) (49-70-2,95) of GIRL SCOUT COOKIES fought MARY RETZLAFF (3-
6119) (20-30-1,67) of AMERICAN APPRAISAL.  KOOKABURRA was handily defeated by MARY 
RETZLAFF in a 1 minute one-sided fight.  Many people are defeated by these cookies.  
I have to admit that I've never tried 'em, myself.  Thin Mints or nothing.
     BECKY (17-5782) (14-2-2,92) of BLADES OF STEEL fought BLACK EYE (60-6163) (18-
11-0,64) of JOKA MASHER!  BECKY overpowered BLACK EYE in a 1 minute gruesome one-
sided fight.  A feisty woman, Becky.  Myself, I think she should have blacked his 
OTHER eye, too.  After all, any joka' that'd hit a woman, or maybe I should say TRY 
to hit a woman, deserves black eyes all around.
     AEDON (7-4295) (37-20-1,122) of BLADES OF ICE fought ISHINOMORI (7-5390) (28-8-
1,114) of NINJAS.  AEDON was viciously subdued by ISHINOMORI in a crowd pleasing 2 
minute gruesome bout.  Which just shows you how sneaky these ninja types can be.  
Ishi waited until Aedon's blade melted--it took twenty-three seconds--and then went 
at him with both feet.
     FEAR (82-10416) (21-29-1,104) of 4-LETTER ANXIETY fought RAISON D'ETRE (7-5311) 
(21-16-3,115) of BATHTUB ARMADA.  FEAR was savagely defeated by RAISON D'ETRE in an 
action packed 2 minute gory duel.  There's some kind of philosophical something-or-
other in this, but this is not my day to do philosophical, so you'll have to work it 
out for yourself.  Write a personal next time to give your views.
     PRIZMATYK WAHL (73-4252) (18-8-2,101) of MAGIC MAYHEM fought SPUTTER (82-15095) 
(30-18-1,115) of JOKA MASHER.  PRIZMATYK WAHL was overpowered by SPUTTER in an action 
packed 1 minute one-sided bout.  Okay, it worked, but what a mess!  The janitors are 
ticked off.  Something about it being a lot easier to get blood out of a purple robe 
than sputter.  I didn't know they did laundry on the side, but everybody's 
moonlighting these days.
     EXILE (7-4618) (25-19-1,130) of BLADES OF ICE fought MARY ANN (47-4378) (16-19-
0,134) of SCREEN DREAMS.  EXILE won victory over MARY ANN in a popular 3 minute 
gruesome match.  Does this mean Exile gets to go home?  Is it COOL where he comes 
from?  Because if it is, he can take me along with him.
     TUTANKHAMUN (71-3357) (29-18-0,158) of CARTOUCHE fought SIR VILE (10-4754) (28-
27-1,149) of SIR AGLIO.  TUTANKHAMUN subdued SIR VILE in a popular 1 minute fight.  
Also known as Revenge of the Mummy, although I'm not sure what he was revenging.  An 
insult to his mother, perhaps.
     JOE KING (47-2223) (30-51-1,167) of ROYAL FLUSH fought HALLIE O'DENE (58-6018) 
(50-67-0,147) of CIRQUE DU MASQUES.  JOE KING was handily defeated by HALLIE O'DENE 
in a 1 minute one-sided contest.  Looks like a case of experience getting the upper 
hand, right?  And age, but one should never mention a woman's age if she happens to 
be holding a sword at the time.
     IPECAC (45-3625) (25-15-0,171) of EMETICS fought KIDNEY (96-972) (15-9-3,123) of 
ORGAN ON THE SANDS.  IPECAC demolished KIDNEY in an action packed 1 minute uneven 
bout.  This was interesting, in a disgusting sort of way, because the kidneys are not 
the organs Ipecac usually deals with.
     MOD COD (55-2638) (53-79-1,165) of RHYME TYME fought NED THE JANITOR (66-2973) 
(24-22-0,157) of ANDORIAN UNIVERSITY.  MOD COD butchered NED THE JANITOR in a 1 
minute gruesome one-sided bout.  Well... this is one way to get the clean-up crew off 
your back after you drench the sands with grue.  But if I were Mod Cod, I wouldn't go 
down any unswept hallways.
     TICKLES (9-3486) (47-64-1,208) of MY PETS fought DELICE THE RED (56-3401) (50-
54-2,210) of BAD APPLES.  TICKLES was overpowered by DELICE THE RED in a 1 minute 
mismatched fight.  That is one BAAAD apple, there.  Note to anyone thinking of 
challenging the redhead: don't rely on tickling to win.
     AERYN SUN (10-4268) (24-10-0,190) of FARSCAPE fought DITCH RAT (82-15360) (25-
24-3,159) of VERMIN!  AERYN SUN overpowered DITCH RAT in an exciting 1 minute brutal 
one-sided bout.  This is one of those allegorical things, you know, the power of the 
sun, the rat, creature of darkness, that sort of stuff.  Heavy going, but sometimes 
you gotta have it.  So they tell me.
     JAKUCHU ITO (7-5102) (29-15-0,192) of NINJAS fought MASHER (60-4553) (46-42-
3,188) of JOKA MASHER!  JAKUCHU ITO overpowered MASHER in a crowd pleasing 1 minute 
mismatched brawl.  Was Jakuchu acting as a hero here?  A lot of women have complained 
about a "masher" lurking in the more crowded alleys of Talahya.  Does Jakuchu suspect 
that THIS is the masher in question?  Does the crowd agree?
     DIRT WORM (82-2315) (66-34-0,193) of VERMIN!! fought EMILY (17-5753) (30-18-
0,204) of BLADES OF STEEL.  DIRT WORM was bested by EMILY in an action packed 3 
minute duel.  It isn't what you'd expect of a lady with a high-toned name like Emily, 
but then again, she's steely under the lace.  She CAN squish worms if that is the 
right thing to do.

     Ah, challenge matches.  Signs that somehwere, some manager or managers were 
paying attention.  You'd never guess by looking at the personals....
     HOCKEY DUCK (39-937) (25-17-1,77) of DUCKS UNLIMITED challenged SKI MASK (58-
5869) (37-61-0,70) of CIRQUE DU MASQUES.  Down 7.  HOCKEY DUCK slimly won victory 
over SKI MASK in a 2 minute Challenge bout.  This seems to mark a division in the 
ranks of the Ducks.  Is it a race thing?  There are, after all, more than one kind of 
Duck.  Or is it political?  Maybe two sides of a romantic triangle?  Tell all, you 
Ducks!
     NUTCRACKER (38-4380) (18-7-1,41) of ALL FINESSE challenged SATOSHI KUNO (7-5229) 
(22-19-0,66) of NINJAS.  Up 25.  NUTCRACKER was handily defeated by SATOSHI KUNO in a 
1 minute Challenge contest.  Not an unexpected result, perhaps, but there is always 
the chance of skills.  Learning a lot of skills makes up for hard knocks, here where 
you can't die permanently.  After all, what ELSE have you got to do?
     BLACK JACK SHELACK (47-4850) (17-13-1,62) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged CARRIE 
NATION (64-4054) (42-77-0,58) of REFORMERS.  Down 4.  BLACK JACK SHELACK overpowered 
CARRIE NATION in a 2 minute one-sided Challenge match.  And if anybody has told you 
that I'd like a sample of Black Jack's coffin varnish, don't you believe it!  I don't 
need a smaple, he buys it from me!  Hey, somebody's got to make and sell this rotgut.
     IMMOVEABLE OBJECT (59-2110) (20-6-1,64) of NOT QUITE challenged QUIBBLE (10-
4756) (24-46-0,91) of QUBIT.  Up 27.  IMMOVEABLE OBJECT outlasted QUIBBLE in an 
action packed 7 minute gory Challenge match.  Action packed?  This is a joke, right?  
Those two turkeys stood out there and ARGUED for the whole seven minutes.  The only 
action was tongue action.
     FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE (98-809) (19-16-4,93) of COLLEGE RADIO challenged BRICK (20-
389) (37-35-0,141) of THE BLUES.  Up 48.  FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE overpowered BRICK in a 
popular 1 minute uneven Challenge duel.  Fountains of acid, more like.  I've never 
seen a brick dissolve faster.
     NUTMEG (7-5167) (22-15-1,133) of SUGAR AND SPICE challenged BEER GOGGLES (33-
6819) (29-29-1,133) of JOYS OF BOOZE.  Straight across.  You just do that to see if 
I'm paying attention, don't you?  NUTMEG vanquished BEER GOGGLES in an action packed 
1 minute uneven Challenge duel.  Actually, what nutmeg'll do in the long run is give 
you a heck of a headache.  So many things do.  Seems to be some kind of law.  
Probably passed by an aspirin company.
     ROT TEN EGGS (47-3099) (36-35-0,135) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged KAIDEN (35-3108) 
(86-83-2,163) of VIOLENT FEMS.  Up 28.  ROT TEN EGGS devastated KAIDEN in a 1 minute 
one-sided Challenge competition.  And not only Kaiden, the whole arena was devastated 
by those damned eggs.  Phew!
     PERFECT TEN (47-4218) (28-22-1,168) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged SPAZZ (33-6207) 
(43-39-0,170) of SNOTZI'S II.  Up 2.  PERFECT TEN was viciously subdued by SPAZZ in a 
3 minute Challenge fight.  And who is this Spazz, you ask, who can win by apparent 
accident and wild flailing?  Well, he comes from the island of striped ice cream, and 
you know what THAT means!
     APPLE JACK (47-4011) (30-24-4,159) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged BUDDERCUP (60-5967) 
(36-31-0,177) of BUMS 'R' US.  Up 18.  APPLE JACK was savagely defeated by BUDDERCUP 
in a 2 minute Challenge match.  That Buddercup is about the savagest bum you're 
likely to meet.  Mainly because after meeting the savage blossom, you won't be 
meeting anybody else.  Oh, sure, no ARENA deaths, but who knows what goes on in the 
darker alleys?  Very busy places, alleys.  Crowded, too.

     Ah, some tv challenges, and managers/warriors who aren't too lazy to use 'em.
     TAOS (26-4042) (12-9-1,46) of HERE TO PHOENIX TV challenged 2 PHAT (72-5064) 
(18-5-1,36) of VERMIN.  Down 10.  TAOS bested 2 PHAT in a 2 minute Challenge fight.  
What, you might ask, does this represent?  A grudge between managers?  A little 
inside knowledge?  The eternal search for the easy win?
     UZI (44-1701) (27-26-1,149) of BLOWN AWAY TV challenged W.T. POOH (33-4430) (67-
51-0,154) of SNOTZI'S II.  Up 5.  UZI was savagely defeated by W.T. POOH in an action 
packed 3 minute Challenge fight.  Be warned, warriors of Home Guard, this Pooh is no 
pushover!
     MICHAEL J'EH FOX (60-5263) (22-12-2,122) of INGRATE WHITE NORTH TV challenged 
KONGOL (7-4524) (33-20-2,116) of BLADES OF ICE.  Down 6.  MICHAEL J'EH FOX subdued 
KONGOL in a 2 minute Challenge melee.  Okay, you think maybe I shouldn't labor the 
icy blades?  Fine.  Give me something else to talk about by speaking in the 
personals, developing your characters, heck, even send me a diplo!
     STEVE MCQUEEN (47-3908) (36-35-1,198) of ROYAL FLUSH TV challenged 50 SUCKS (60-
4129) (68-36-1,216) of JOKA MASHER!  Up 18.  STEVE MCQUEEN was viciously subdued by 
50 SUCKS in a 5 minute Challenge fight.  That'll teach Stevie boy to go challenging a 
senior citizen!

     And for the title, which nobody cared enough about to issue a challenge over:  
TIME SQUARE (65-4637) (30-12-0,216) of BIG APPLE MENACE fought TUM (18-7380) (27-16-
2,222) of FROM THE FACE.  TIME SQUARE was handily defeated by TUM in a popular 1 
minute uneven Title fight.  I dunno if this is an improvement, but at least it's a 
change.

                                        O.M.

Apple Jack -- Apples are better if not left lying around long enough to ferment, as
*I* know and you SHOULD know.  But men always like things fermented.  It must be a
guy thing. -- Delice the Red and Fresh

Hockey Duck -- (jumping up and down and gibbering)  You unspeakable, insufferable
traitor to Duckkind everywhere!  May a cow sit on your eggs! -- Ski Mask

Rot Ten Eggs -- Oh, my.  Did a cow sit on you? -- Hallie O'Deene

Man O'War -- Doubtless there are people out there--gladiators and especially
MANAGERS--who think it's FUNNY to get a horse drunk!  And then, further, they laugh
when the poor drunken beast TRAMPLES somebody!  I curse you all!  May everything you
raise to your lips to drink turn into/out to be stagnant water! -- Carrie Nation

Lost.  Small black dog, answers to the name of Tutu.  Lost somewhere between here and
Kansas.  If found, approach with care, as he has been known to bite.  Witches are
especially warned against approaching this dog.  However, if you want him, he's
yours.

Wanted to buy.  Pair of matched gray carriage horses.  Actually, make that three, as
it is always good to have a spare.  Must be comfortable around lightning.  Will pay a
song, two if the horses are very good.  Ask at the Grey Tower.

For sale.  Black, two-wheel carriage in the Fratsfan style, vintage 499, but in good
condition, only driven on the nights of the full moon.  The brimstone smell is nearly
gone already, really, and another year or two of alchemical treatments should see it
completely eradicated.  Five hundred eagles or best offer.

For all your cleaning needs!  Lizona's Magical and Alchemical Laundry, results
guaranteed, or your garments back.  Bloodstains our specialty.

Tired of going drinking by yourself?  Apply at the Laughing Barmaid's Escort Service
for a friend in need.

Personals Written While You Wait.  Generic comments five coppers each, personalized
statements will come higher.  Ask at the arena office for the Trustworthy Scribe.

The person who left a towel (pink with yellow duckies) at Madame Kay's Bathhouse can
retrieve their property at the front desk.

Seeking information on the person or persons who thought it would be amusing to plant
poison ivy in my herbacious border.  Reward offered.  Contact Mrs. Arlou at Box 47.

Trig -- All is at an end. -- Miriane

17 July 2004
I am currently trying to put together a favorites chart for AD warriors.  I
desperately need help with this.  What I need are style, favorite rhythm (ex.:
hi/low), favorite weapons, and tactics.  What would be great is if you could send me
a copy of the invite with the warrior's name, id#, and arena blacked out.  This way,
I can verify that this is an actual warrior.  Minis will work, too!

For those interested, I have both a challenge style vs. style and a match-up style
vs. style chart.  There's about 250 fights calculated in these charts, and I'll be
happy to send a copy to anyone who asks.  You can contact me (if you're a free world
player) at: Rick Stringer, Merit/East, SCI, P.O. Box 500, Georgetown, DE 19947-0500.
If you're in prison, just send a diplo to:  Baphomet, Mgr. Knights Templar (568), DM
#47--North Fork.  (I also have a lot of other charts and info for anyone who wants
it.)  Thanks!

30 July 2004
The total number of fights calculated was reported as 250 fights.  This is a
misprint.  It should have read "over 2,500 fights." -- Baphomet

               NEW TEAMS IN THE TEMPORARY TOURNAMENT ARENAS (DM 81/83)

Please note that all new teams created at the Face-to-Face were temporarily placed 
in a temporary Tournament Arena, DM 81 or DM 83.  If you requested that your team be 
placed in a specific arena, it has already transferred to that arena.  Any teams not 
transferred out of DM 81 and DM 83 by October 1st will be deleted.  If you have 
questions about any of your teams, please contact Customer Service. -- RSI 

                                FACE-TO-FACE XXXIV

     Our next Winter Face-to-Face will be held on Martin Luther King weekend, Friday 
through Sunday, 14-16 January 2005, at the Embassy Suites in Tempe, Arizona (4400 S 
Rural Rd--this is the same hotel as last year).  Room rates are $139.00 per night, 
1-4 occupancy, which includes breakfast.  The rooms are blocked.  The reservations 
number is 480-897-7444; tell them you're with the "Reality Simulations Face to Face 
Convention" block.  Our room block will be released in mid-December, so please make 
sure you reserve your room before then! 
     Room rates include a full cooked-to-order breakfast and a complimentary two-hour 
manager's reception.  There is a free shuttle to the airport, as well as free parking.  
The hotel is located down the freeway in Tempe.  All rooms have high speed internet 
(for an extra charge).  There is a fitness center, jacuzzi, and pool, and of course a 
bar and Mexican restaurant inside the hotel.  And there's Denny's right across the 
street.  Look for transportation info in the tournament information sheet.
     The tournament information sheet/strategy sheet should be out sometime in late 
November/early December. 
     If you haven't been to a Face-to-Face before, you're overdue.  If you have, 
you'll be back.  Don't miss this one, it'll be a blast!  See you there!
