There were, as usual, no deaths in this arena, even of the fleeting kind. It's a great pity. I miss the drama--the last words, the death rattle, the eyes glazing over. Tsk. However, there was a title fight. GATEWAY (82-15631) (70-55-1,289) of ATTACK OF THE CLONES fought MANUTE BOL (5-4233) (86-66-0,217) of LARGE LOSERS. GATEWAY bested MANUTE BOL in a crowd pleasing 1 minute Title fight. Crowd pleasing? Hmm. We weren't all pleased, were we? And so, Gateway is still considered the top Lunger, whereas Manute Bol is no longer rated as the top Aimed Blow. A frightened clerk told me that I should mention the Overall Popularity Leader. I do not like being approached by frightened clerks. This one made me take the form of a woman with a shrill voice. I think it was his ex-wife? In any case: The overall popularity leader is a warrior known as "Crack is Cheap." RUGEN THE JELLYFISH (82-12478) (35-17-0,398) of HANNAH'S PALS fought CRACK IS CHEAP (82-18422) (81-96-0,188) of NEGATIVE CASH FLOW. RUGEN THE JELLYFISH savagely defeated CRACK IS CHEAP in an exciting 3 minute fight. There. The well-liked fellow lost. I'm glad. Rugen the Jellyfish was appreciated by the spectators, too. I suppose he did spill some blood. That is always of interest. Once again, the new guild had a winning record of 2-0. Their manager, Fizban, is very welcome here, as long as he manages to sustain his wild dread of billy goats. ROB A. REE (39-3241) (47-31-1,190) of CRIMINAL ELEMENT fought LAGUNA LIL (7- 5681) (29-87-0,172) of BEACH BABES. ROB A. REE vanquished LAGUNA LIL in an action packed 1 minute uneven fight. MEN WORKING (38-4189) (48-179-1,183) of JUST BECAUSE fought ARSONIST ART (39- 3325) (38-34-0,164) of CRIMINAL ELEMENT. MEN WORKING was narrowly defeated by ARSONIST ART in an exciting 3 minute fight. Men Working is rated the top Basher. I do not think this is much of a distinction? Perhaps I am mistaken. It was a short session in the arena--just fourteen fights--and then the spectators were released to seek other entertainment in this small and boring town. In fact, someone died in Willow Beach today! A very old man, who caught his thumb with a fish hook last week, and perished of blood poisoning. I had the pleasure of escorting the fellow to Ahringol's realm. For him, I took the form of a corpse that had been in the lake for several days. Although, in reality, those get eaten by the lake monsters, which are always hungry. I have decided to offer a free tour of Ahringol's domain--including a return trip--so anyone with an open mind can see for himself or herself that it is quite a cheery place to go. Meals and comfortable accomodations will be provided. Please let me know if you are interested in going on the tour.

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE Jorja -- How have you been, you lovely lady, you ready to give and old wizard a chance yet? <wink wink> -- Fizban the flirty Work in Progress -- Progress is slow it seems. (he he he) -- Rob a Ree Men Working -- That's the problem with men working, some woman always has to come along and finish up for them. Didn't hurt you too bad there, did I, darlin? -- Sex on the Beach Tallahasse Tina -- Woo hoo, that's how I like it, girl, a little rough from you and a lot rough from me. <grin> -- B.A. Turry Aloha Alice -- Didn't mean to burn you down, sweetie, but you get me so hot. -- Arsonist Art All -- 7-1-0 for my first 2 turns back in Darkholm, something is not right here. I'm not that good, I'm more of a 3-5-0 guy. Come on, people knock me down a peg or 2. -- Fizban the baffled Spy Reporting Entity -- A question in response to your first question: that it is pointless... do you mean it's pointless for the gladiators to practice, making special efforts every fortnight, or for people to watch them do so? What would be the value of pretending to die? It is a hollow pretense, as you yourself observed. Why make a mockery of death with such pretense? Novgorodny Vir is not much of a threat. He is only "like" the sun, after all, and frankly, not very like. In fact, he's a bit of a donkey. -- Beach Babes Beach Babes -- Dying, in an arena on this island, could be an art form. One would like to witness a vivid spray of blood, the stench of spilled entrails, the occasional horrific scream. True, it is essentially theater, but it could at least be GOOD theater. I suppose these fights are not pointless at all from the viewpoint of the Grey Witch. But there is no chance of enjoying Lord Ahringol's considerable hospitality. Thanks to the lies that have been spread, that lack is considered a great boon. Baa! You are all deprived of something every mortal should desire. -- Kthlahxoy I have seen Novgorodny Vir. A golem. As you say, not at all like the sun, though he is not like a donkey either. Baa! -- Kthlahxoy Sex on the Beach -- I have a headache, thanks anyway. -- Crysoprase Gateway -- You'll be glad to know, maybe, that they reattached my arm. *sigh* I've almost kinda got feeling back in my fingers. -- Stassia LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS GATEWAY bested MANUTE BOL in a crowd pleasing 1 minute Title fight. REDDI WHIP vanquished WORK IN PROGRESS in a exciting 1 minute uneven battle. ETCHED IN STONE overpowered CRYSOPRASE in a crowd pleasing 1 minute mismatched duel. RUGEN THE JELLYFISH savagely defeated CRACK IS CHEAP in a exciting 3 minute fight. GREASY NAPKINS viciously subdued RED FUSION in a popular 4 minute bloody duel. COOLER overpowered B.A. TURRY in a popular 1 minute mismatched brawl. SEX ON THE BEACH was handily defeated by 5 GOT PICKED in a 1 minute uneven melee. ROB A.
