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

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Yes, well, here we are.  Breathing down the neck of Death and Taxes, and a
leathery, unwashed neck it is.  Zontani Sharp Eyes apparently believes it to be the
neck of a city about to perish utterly due to deaths.  Myself, I think the perishing
will come from taxes, but then, I have an edge in these calculations, having already
tried death and found it the less alarming of the two.

     But on a brighter, or at least more sanguinary, note, the fights of the day.
     The Stormguards were avoided by the warriors of Royal Flush.  Other teams may
have been avoided by other warriors, but this particular configuration was, by a
small margin, the most significant.
     Kalen got the most challenges.
     Out of twenty-seven fights, twelve were challenge matches, which is not a bad
percentage.  Nobody died, though many faced the Taxman.  Or no, wait, the Taxman
retired, didn't he or she?  Somebody from Intimidators in Niania.  Well, people faced
A taxman, regardless.  Only one standby fought.

     And on that note, or set of notes (can you hum it?), we move on to the actual
fights.
     FAT BACK (96-1610) (21-19-4,86) of KILLING ME SOFTLY fought MOUNTAIN GOAT (56-
3700) (46-63-3,77) of REDHORSE.  FAT BACK overcame MOUNTAIN GOAT in a 2 minute bout.
Even though it was a random match, it is clear that Fat Back learned well last time
and was able to defeat Mountain Goat.
     BLOOD PIE (96-1918) (9-8-5,22) of WHY SELL THIS? fought TITAN (17-6796) (18-4-
1,51) of STEEL WOLVES.  BLOOD PIE won victory over TITAN in an action packed 1 minute
bout.  But, I warn you, Blood Pie, you will have the maintenance crew to deal with
next, and they are not an easy proposition!  They are claiming "extra chargers" for
cleaning the jellied blood out of the sand.
     HEAD CHEESE (96-1920) (11-6-3,43) of WHY SELL THIS? fought CAULIFLOWER EARS (52-
3424) (20-13-0,88) of OTTO'S PARTS.  HEAD CHEESE defeated CAULIFLOWER EARS in an
exciting 3 minute bout.  Now, here was a match to confuse the most astute observer.
Which was a less edible prospect?  Head Cheese, or Cauliflower?  Inquiring minds
would prefer NOT to know.
     SCRAPPLE (97-1961) (8-9-3,34) of WHY SELL THIS? fought JARL FORKBEARD (31-5280)
(26-9-1,71) of THE STORMGUARDS.  SCRAPPLE viciously subdued JARL FORKBEARD in a slow
13 minute gruesome match.  The concept of slow viciousness boggles me.  This
sounds... really mean.  Surely we don't have anybody that mean here in Home Guard?
Oh.  We do, eh?  Well... well, I'll just have to watch out for them, then.
     BROKEN TOE (56-3683) (46-67-1,93) of REDHORSE fought BRICK WALL (1-7478) (38-41-
0,63) of HOMICIDAL MANIACS.  BROKEN TOE was luckily beaten by BRICK WALL in a popular
2 minute gory match.  Huh.  What can we say, that isn't too impolite (the politeness
police have been watch us closely of late days), about a gladiator who gets tired of
beating his head against a brick wall after a mere two minutes?

     MISCHIEVOUS IMP (1-7627) (29-15-3,101) of SWEORDMASTERS fought PORK ROLL (97-
1634) (21-19-5,128) of KILLING ME SOFTER.  MISCHIEVOUS IMP was overpowered by PORK
ROLL in an action packed 2 minute uneven fray.  Have you ever (before) seen an imp,
mischievous or otherwise, who weighs two hundred ninety seven pounds?  This is what
pork rolls do to imps.  Take note and avoid.
     LINI DAWNWIND (11-5865) (30-30-1,159) of KRILL CAVALRY fought HUMMINGBIRD (56-
3475) (45-53-0,135) of REDHORSE.  LINI DAWNWIND was overpowered by HUMMINGBIRD in an
exciting 1 minute uneven fight.  Rather embarrassing, eh, Lini?
     AEDON (7-4295) (54-49-1,174) of BLADES OF ICE fought YOU'VE GOT SEATTLE (82-
31563) (27-18-1,146) of IT'S THE SAME MOVIE!  AEDON was overpowered by YOU'VE GOT
SEATTLE in a 1 minute mismatched fight.  Rumor has it (but you know how unreliable
rumors can be) that a new weapon is about to be added to the repertoire:  the two-
handed seattle.
     CROOKED HOOF (56-3493) (51-42-0,197) of REDHORSE fought CEER (96-1537) (19-20-
4,188) of THE BLOODGUARD 2.  CROOKED HOOF was demolished by CEER in a 1 minute one-
sided bout.  Good.  Looking at that stupid crooked toenail was making my feet hurt.
     MOD COD (55-2638) (90-111-3,198) of RHYME TYME fought BRANFORD HAWKE (11-5077)
(36-38-0,184) of TUFT TUGGERS.  MOD COD was unbelievably bested by BRANFORD HAWKE in
a popular 2 minute brutal brawl.  Why does ANBODY find it hard to believe that some
random gladiator off the streets can slice and dice the stinking fish?  Not that
Branford didn't do well, he did, but seriously, how is this unbelievable?

     BECKY (17-5782) (39-23-4,203) of BLADES OF STEEL fought AYLIAN (101-23) (0-0-
0,181) of the Louts Local 101.  BECKY vanquished AYLIAN in a crowd pleasing 1 minute
one-sided fray.  Well, naturally!  Look at the difference in experience, after all!
     KOOKABURRA (33-4151) (79-109-4,218) of GIRL SCOUT COOKIES fought TENACIOUS (7-
5337) (52-25-1,204) of BATHTUB ARMADA.  KOOKABURRA was luckily beaten by TENACIOUS in
a popular 3 minute bloody duel.  No luck here.  Look at the logic of it:  If you
throw a cookie into the bathtub, what happens to it?  Assuming it doesn't get eaten
immediately by the rubber duckies, it gets soggy and sinks.
     REDEMPTION (4-4868) (53-34-2,213) of BLADES OF MIST fought HELLACIOUS (1-7541)
(33-11-1,190) of MANNEQUIN'S BEST.  REDEMPTION overpowered HELLACIOUS in a 1 minute
mismatched conflict.  Does this mean that even the WORST can be redeemed?  Yes, I
know, these are Mannequin's BEST, but Hellacious is surely a sort of "worst of the
best."
     DESPERADO (77-2459) (36-18-2,211) of POSSE fought BUCK (1-2291) (61-121-0,199)
of MOSSRUNNERS.  DESPERADO viciously subdued BUCK in an exciting 2 minute bloody
battle.  Just to make it clear that Crooked Hoof was right in declaring you
"amazing," eh?  Good work.
     JOHN LONGSHORE (11-4197) (42-49-0,221) of TUFT TUGGERS fought FEALOST (1-3916)
(65-88-2,196) of MOSSRUNNERS.  JOHN LONGSHORE was savagely defeated by FEALOST in a 2
minute bloody competition.  And what, exactly, is Fealost UP to here, winning fights.
It's outrageous.

     Ah, the challenge matches.
     UNZOE THE SHAMAN (31-4940) (16-4-0,69) of THE STORMGUARDS challenged ADAM'S
APPLE (52-3203) (21-9-0,89) of OTTO'S PARTS.  Up 20.  UNZOE THE SHAMAN was
overpowered by ADAM'S APPLE in a 1 minute Challenge melee.  So much for Unzoe's bet
that he could make apple butter on the sands today.
     BULL DURHAM (5-4324) (20-10-0,64) of PARTY ANIMALS challenged PINE LEAF (24-
4580) (33-45-0,85) of KRILL CAVALRY.  BULL DURHAM vanquished PINE LEAF in a 1 minute
one-sided Challenge fight.  Looks like Pine Leaf wasn't up for partying today.  Too
many late nights?
     HUNZICKER BOWL (23-4182) (26-18-1,73) of SKI TAOS challenged HARLEY THE CADAVER
(18-5366) (21-39-3,73) of STREET PIZZA.  Straight across.  HUNZICKER BOWL defeated
HARLEY THE CADAVER in a 2 minute Challenge duel.  Who allowed Hunzicker out there
with a fifty-pound bowling ball?
     VIKING RAIDER (54-2885) (11-2-1,55) of SPARF! challenged KALEN (12-6418) (21-13-
1,69) of STEEL THUNDER.  Up 14.  VIKING RAIDER vanquished KALEN in an action packed 2
minute uneven Challenge duel.  Kalen, I believe that Viking raids have now been
classed as acts of god, and that you can claim government emergency aid to clean up
afterward.  Apply now.
     ACE METRIC (47-3554) (18-8-0,100) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged SNIPPER (66-3518)
(27-22-0,99) of WHIPPERSNAPPERS.  Down 1.  ACE METRIC handily defeated SNIPPER in a 1
minute uneven Challenge fight.  Ah, does this mean that Snipper is "into" old-style
measurement exclusively?  They tell me this is a Bad Thing, leading to Loss of
Business and Ingrown Toenails.
     BLACK JACK SHELACK (47-4850) (24-19-1,148) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged GAR & BRILL
(38-4252) (54-74-0,137) of JUST BECAUSE.  Down 11.  BLACK JACK SHELACK was beaten by
GAR & BRILL in a 2 minute Challenge brawl.  Rotten work, Black.  Clean up your act
here.

     BODDINGTON'S (21-5035) (21-9-0,145) of REAL BEER challenged REDDI WHIP (97-1636)
(24-16-7,169) of KILLING ME SOFTER.  Up 24.  BODDINGTON'S was defeated by REDDI WHIP
in a 2 minute Challenge struggle.  Whipped cream and beer?  I shudder at the thought
of such a combination.
     HELM HAMMERHAND (31-5025) (41-32-0,116) of LORDS OF VALHALLA challenged HEBEE
(38-4359) (26-25-0,124) of ALL FINESSE.  Up 8.  HELM HAMMERHAND devastated HEBEE in a
1 minute uneven Challenge brawl.  People are beginning to call Hebee "Nailhead."
     SLIPPERY NIPPLE (59-2323) (25-7-1,170) of HANGOVERS challenged MOOSE (56-3459)
(37-49-0,168) of REDHORSE.  Down 2.  SLIPPERY NIPPLE was devastated by MOOSE in a 1
minute one-sided Challenge fight.  Good.  I find the whole concept and image of S.N.
to be totally repellent.
     OSCAR (50-3153) (36-11-0,153) of OPEN SESAME challenged KONGOL (7-4524) (50-49-
2,156) of BLADES OF ICE.  Up 3.  OSCAR subdued KONGOL in an action packed 2 minute
bloody Challenge fight.  Somebody addressed a remark to Kongol that I should perhaps 
recall and ricochet off of, but I'm going to give it a miss.
     DRANDUS DE'VIR (71-4909) (28-18-0,187) of REALMS TUFTS challenged HALLIE O'DENE
(58-6018) (84-102-0,218) of CIRQUE DU MASQUES.  Up 31 or so.  Don't check the math, I
need a nap.  But around there.  DRANDUS DE'VIR was subdued by HALLIE O'DENE in a 2
minute Challenge melee.  Will Hallie be here after the Split, or will she be sucked
off to Talahya?  Tune in next week and see!  Or whenever.

     And for the title, in default of the previous title-holder:  POPE PAUL II (79-
1317) (26-19-0,221) of CHAPEL ROCK challenged CAT IN THE HAT (24-3103) (42-16-1,229)
of THE SEUSS HEUSS.  Up 8.  POPE PAUL II was viciously subdued by CAT IN THE HAT in a
7 minute Challenge fight.  It would appear that the irreverent Cat (all cats are
irreverent) is our new Captain of the Guard.  Congratulations.

THE DEAD                    W   L  K TEAM NAME              SLAIN BY              TURN

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Desperado -- You are damned good.  Don't know what else to say.  I was pretty good in
that fight, but you were amazing. -- Crooked Hoof

Kalen -- Well, I was glad to be able to teach you three skills, as a reward for
making a brave challenge.  I was also glad to be able to win.  It'd be embarrassing
to lose to somebody nearly two feet shorter than I am. -- Broken Toe

Ciaran Ap Gruffydd -- You thought you were going to win, didn't you?  Just because
the announcer said you were ahead, and I was staggering with exhaustion?  Ha!  When
the chips are down, that's when I... when I pick up the chips and eat them. -- Buck

     With bean dip.

Mod Cod -- I did not want to get matched against you.  You've got twice as many
fights as I've got.  What were they thinking?  They should have given me extra points
to compensate. -- Moose

     Or the first ten blows.

Kongol -- You're eight feet tall.  How did that happen?  I didn't know they allowed
people your size to fight in the arena... at least in the daytime.  Well, except
Phetmolge, but I thought he was the only one. -- Fealost

     He trained his SZ, of course.

Snipper -- See that you remember those parry and riposting skills I showed you.  You
need those, and more to go with them.  You should probably challenge me. --
Hummingbird

Fat Back -- Oh, that's so unfair!  Why, oh why, would they make a young guy like you
--and a little guy--fight an old pro like me?  So I felt sorry for you and let you
win.  You're welcome.  Glad I could teach you a thing or two. -- Mountain Goat

Icelord -- Thanks for reminding us that it's time for a celebration.  Next turn? --
Redhorse et al

Cumhal Baiscne -- You just do that to see me stumble over your name, don't you?
Gaelic is worse than French for the division between spelling and pronunciation, and
if it isn't Gaelic, it's even WORSE. -- Hallie O'Dene

     Think of it as a challenge.

Gar & Brill -- Eat brillo, you Thing! -- Lini Dawnwind

Hummingbird -- I'll get you yet, see if I don't, and I'll SNIP OFF YOUR FLIGHT
FEATHERS. -- Snipper

     Ooooh, fierce!

Jarl Forkbeard -- You must be the terror of walls everywhere.  Well done. -- Hallie
O'Dene

Titan -- Ah, the pleasures of being matched with someone who lacks my experience!
I'm savoring it now, because I expect to be evicted at the Split. -- Pine Leaf
P.S.  But the way you learn, no question but you'll have your day, too.

     Maybe they'll forget.
