THE GUARDIAN'S FORUM Reflections by the Chief Tower Guard This could be my farewell address, so forgive me if I ramble a bit, on behalf of Abby. First, AK47, I don't believe Leeta was inferring you could regain skills you burned by training stats before you maxed skills. To me, she said, "If you haven't maxed skils, you can do it faster and if your skills are maxed and you are training stats, it's faster." Once you burn a skill while training stats, it's gone forever. Abby is thinking of quitting DM except for Dead Tournaments because she is so by how long it takes to max skills and train stats up. Now if she could resurrect one or two of her best, maybe she'd continue. Her now dead PS -- 9(2)-9(1)-5-21-17-11-15 or PL -- 11(2)-7(2)-11-21-17-6-15 would probably re-kindle the flame. They've both tried four times, so it doesn't look hopeful. Atonement, with fingers crossed REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER Another day, another duel. At least you get exercise! Sitting at this desk writing about your fights is not exercise, and I get so stiff sometimes I can't even get up. Things have been (how not-surprising!) delayed and confused here and there around the office, so this is probably going to be a fairly rushed job. Royal Flush was avoided by Andorian Knights. Tashia was challenged most. Nobody died. The longest fight was sixteen minutes. The following manager list is based on this turn's team rankings, and it is incomplete. And maybe inaccurate, though I've done my best with it. Corrections and additions would be welcome. 1 BLOOD LUST 73/978 Abraxis? 2 THE BLACK COM 54/698 Woelfe 3 THE MUPPETS 54/852 Keldon Blackfang 4 A UNIT 70/844 Abby 5 DREAM PARK 9/1036 Zalgor Prigg 6 EMETICS 45/1030 Berylstar? 7 JUNGLE HAMMER 39/738 Hammer 8 DREAM TEAMS 41/919 Sub-Dude 9 ARCTIC GUARD 71/1058 Yukon 10 RISING SUN 73/1055 ? 11-ANCIENT KNIGH 65/817 ? 12 PBA 78/1006 Elderberry 13 DARQUE FORCES 31/908 Master Darque 14 D-DAY SQUAD 34/551 The Mun 15 DARK SIDHE 50/642 Daehir 16 ANDORIAN KNIG 11/962 AK47 17 SIR AGLIO 10/716 Sultan 18 OVERRATED 96/1044 Slugbait 19 DRINKING BUDD 39/574 ? 20 SAND DANCERS 78/848 Leeta or Li Dan 21 THE WHITE COM 54/529 Silver Stroke? 22 GODDESSES 73/1056 ? 23-STORM WARNIN 21/1038 ? 24 X-FORCE 8/1054 ? The fights: LUMBERING WAIF (8-4346) (16-9-0,79) of HAPLESS WAIF fought MELTDOWN (8-4353) (20-5-0,65) of X-FORCE. LUMBERING WAIF demolished MELTDOWN in a popular 2 minute bloody uneven contest. Do you ever wonder about the crowd? They like blood and gore and people getting hacked up. Is this healthy? Does this make you feel safe when you have to go out at night? NORM PETERSON (39-2745) (41-71-0,58) of DRINKING BUDDIES fought R.O.U.S. (106-4) (0-0-0,50) of Various People. NORM PETERSON outlasted R.O.U.S. in a dull 16 minute bout. VERY dull. But then, I don't think this manager even reads his fights any more, so he won't mind, will he? ZOOLANDER (39-3523) (15-6-1,77) of WITLESS WONDERS fought WILD CARD HAMMER (33- 6864) (22-17-2,62) of CASINO HAMMERZ. ZOOLANDER was overpowered by WILD CARD HAMMER in a 1 minute one-sided fight. Wild cards beat everything. MAPPATES HAMMER (33-5597) (15-8-2,55) of MILCHAMAH HAMMERZ fought SNOWFALL (45- 3473) (24-14-0,52) of NORTHERN LIGHTS. MAPPATES HAMMER was defeated by SNOWFALL in an exciting 1 minute match. Or, at least, covered with a cool white blanket? POPPY HAMMER (28-3318) (17-7-0,58) of FLOWER HAMMERZ fought GWEN RYDER (9-4867) (19-7-0,60) of DREAM PARK. POPPY HAMMER was savagely defeated by GWEN RYDER in an action packed 3 minute fight. Does it seem like we've come on a whole RAFT of hammers here? EGOTISTIC DUKE (28-2779) (19-12-1,53) of ABYSMAL BEHAVIORS fought DEBBIE DAHMER (45-3579) (23-7-1,77) of MORDRED'S MADMEN. EGOTISTIC DUKE was overcome by DEBBIE DAHMER in an exciting 1 minute duel. So much for the swelling ego, hmm? PIXIE BLIGHT (73-4427) (15-14-0,79) of DARQUE FORCES VIII fought MOSGIEL (14- 3836) (19-7-1,46) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS. PIXIE BLIGHT handily defeated MOSGIEL in an exciting 1 minute uneven bout. Was Mosgiel a pixie who got blighted? Or is pixie the KIND of blight involved? Or has this just been a very long night...? PROOKIE (78-2345) (20-12-1,52) of PBA fought KISSYFUR (67-2187) (21-9-1,86) of ALL-STAR NANA'S. PROOKIE was vanquished by KISSYFUR in a 1 minute uneven bout. It was probably embarrassment. At least, that's what vanquished the arenamaster; he has a low tolerance for, um, that kind of stuff. MATADOR (11-4139) (41-33-2,94) of ANDORIAN KNIGHTS fought U.S.S. ARIZONA (34- 2643) (19-15-1,46) of D-DAY SQUAD. MATADOR viciously subdued U.S.S. ARIZONA in a popular 2 minute brutal fight. But oddly enough, the handicappers don't call this one "mis-matched." Why? Hidden tourney fights? MIRTA (51-4033) (45-28-1,135) of SAND DANCERS fought DOLLFACE (39-2372) (58-77- 1,132) of DRINKING BUDDIES. MIRTA won victory over DOLLFACE in a popular 3 minute match. Neither warrior has managerial attention, so could it be the personals? I have heard that writing duelmasters' columns improves the odds of winning, but personals? Could be an interesting research topic here. TYRE (31-3713) (30-21-0,151) of DARQUE FORCES fought FEATHER (54-1742) (19-16- 2,143) of THE WHITE COMPANY. TYRE was savagely defeated by FEATHER in a popular 3 minute gory match. Sounds like one of those ironical statements "knock me down with a feather" doesn't it? KYRA (51-3774) (41-43-1,165) of SAND DANCERS fought SIR YDER (31-4353) (25-8- 0,123) of WILLBENDERS. KYRA was overcome by SIR YDER in a 1 minute contest. And they tell me that bending Kyra's will is not an easy task. WHEEL OF FORTUNE (25-2529) (43-39-2,192) of DUELING FOR DOLLARS fought CARLA (39-2428) (60-72-2,155) of DRINKING BUDDIES. WHEEL OF FORTUNE beat CARLA in an action packed 2 minute fray. Obviously, no dollars for Carla today. She'll have to duel better to earn anything. PAUL (35-2349) (36-35-2,197) of COMMON JOE'S fought SANDMAN (11-3923) (51-55- 2,192) of ANDORIAN KNIGHTS. PAUL lost to SANDMAN in a 2 minute match. No adjectives? How'm I going to come up with a dumb quip without an adjective to start from? This apparently wasn't brutal, gory, action packed, bloody, gruesome, exciting, crowd pleasing, boring, or ANYTHING. Just a fight. Odd. I didn't think that was allowed. HANNYA (73-4350) (27-8-1,189) of BLOOD LUST fought DUNEDIN (14-3703) (30-36- 0,198) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS. HANNYA viciously subdued DUNEDIN in a popular 3 minute gory contest. At least it was gory. The lack of adjectives... well, it's disturbing. Thank the gods for gore! WEINERMUN (37-2635) (52-44-3,416) of ALL THE MUN'S MEN fought VERMICIOUS KNID (106-30) (0-0-0,240) of Various People. WEINERMUN overpowered VERMICIOUS KNID in a popular 1 minute bloody one-sided bout. And a good job, too. Nobody likes the Knid. He never stands his round at the Wolf's Head. PAT (35-2292) (36-42-2,214) of COMMON JOE'S fought RIRORNI CAPTAIN (106-26) (0- 0-0,200) of Various People. PAT viciously subdued RIRORNI CAPTAIN in an exciting 3 minute brutal fight. That's the basic anti-Rirorni feeling: everyone likes to see them viciously and brutally subdued. Well, nearly everyone. SNOOPER (1-5154) (37-18-3,219) of MIKE'S MISFITS fought SIR PLUS (10-4316) (31- 24-1,190) of SIR AGLIO. SNOOPER luckily beat SIR PLUS in a crowd pleasing 3 minute brawl. Luck? What the HECK did luck have to do with this? Some days I really wonder about the bookies and the handicapper. LONALILTA (50-2806) (52-42-2,261) of DARK SIDHE fought SANDBLASTER (11-3899) (51-54-3,183) of ANDORIAN KNIGHTS. LONALILTA overpowered SANDBLASTER in a 1 minute gruesome uneven struggle. Just as a matter of academic curiosity, what happens if you bury a sandblaster in the sand? Does he blast his way back out and turn the tables on his burier? Inquiring minds wonder vaguely. BALCLUTHA (14-3169) (27-34-1,222) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS fought SIR LY (10-4116) (40-31-0,187) of SIR AGLIO. BALCLUTHA was overcome by SIR LY in an action packed 4 minute fight. Some days a soft answer does not turn away ill humor. Okay, I was reaching for that one, but it's been that kind of year. Challenge matches: 300 (78-2346) (19-15-0,86) of PBA challenged DANNIA TYL SIO (52-3393) (33-22- 1,86) of SAND DANCERS. Straight across. 300 subdued DANNIA TYL SIO in a popular 2 minute bloody Challenge brawl. All Adantri together, hmm? SODOM (31-4368) (20-10-1,75) of DARQUE FORCES challenged BINGE N PURGE (45-3567) (18-9-0,78) of EMETICS. Up 3. SODOM bested BINGE N PURGE in a crowd pleasing 2 minute brutal Challenge conflict. The CROWD may have been pleased, but the maintenence staff was upset. What a mess to clean up! PINE (78-2350) (21-7-1,32) of TREE PEOPLE challenged RANDOM MATCHUP (96-1048) (9-4-3,69) of OVERRATED. Up 37. PINE overpowered RANDOM MATCHUP in a 1 minute one- sided Challenge match. Surviving the Bloodgames takes a certain kind of toughness, but in a regular arena, the needs are different. Hang in there, Random Matchup, and issue your own challenges! BIRAN (54-1927) (15-8-1,49) of THE WHITE COMPANY challenged EGAN FORN (39-3295) (24-33-0,64) of THE MIDDLE WAY. Up 15. BIRAN overpowered EGAN FORN in a 1 minute gory uneven Challenge match. I'd have expected a MIDDLE way to be ending up with a draw. Too bad the Commission doesn't allow that. It might make for some interesting rivalries. LEVITICUS (54-1687) (18-18-2,100) of THE WHITE COMPANY challenged ZEBRA HAMMER (39-3170) (20-7-0,143) of JUNGLE HAMMERZ. Up 43. LEVITICUS vanquished ZEBRA HAMMER in an action packed 1 minute uneven Challenge fight. Quite the upset here. Although the announcer didn't mention it, the crowd was thrilled. SPLIT (78-2347) (23-12-0,100) of PBA challenged EVE (72-4596) (13-3-0,101) of DARQUE FORCES. Up 1. SPLIT won victory over EVE in a 1 minute Challenge duel. And is this the match ANYONE wants to see on the eve of the split? Talk about ambiguous omens! SCOOTER (54-118) (19-7-1,102) of THE MUPPETS challenged BELGOROTH (50-3175) (30- 29-0,165) of DARK SIDHE. Up 63. SCOOTER was defeated by BELGOROTH in an action packed 2 minute Challenge melee. As some indelicate spy reporters would say, "was it guts or lack of wit that led to this challenge?" STONEWALL (11-3900) (48-57-2,117) of ANDORIAN KNIGHTS challenged TASHIA (11- 2740) (28-35-1,143) of DEADLY DE-PARTED. Up 26. STONEWALL bested TASHIA in a crowd pleasing 2 minute bloody Challenge match. Remember, both of you, blood on a purple robe may stain! But it's still a purple robe, just a dirty one. MERCY (54-1797) (20-10-0,161) of THE BLACK COMPANY challenged JUAN (41-2304) (26-17-0,177) of DREAM TEAMS. Up 16. MERCY devastated JUAN in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge duel. Obviously, Mercy does not take her name seriously. Wham! Maybe she has some personal quarrel with Juan? KALANDRA (50-2443) (56-57-3,195) of DARK SIDHE challenged AVONSIDE (13-3927) (31-40-1,198) of KIWI CONNECTION. Up 3. KALANDRA overpowered AVONSIDE in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge match. Under the circumstances, it looks like Avonside is lucky not to be dead. SCUM #1 (50-2743) (47-52-0,207) of DARK SIDHE challenged SIDON (31-3712) (33-23- 2,211) of DARQUE FORCES. Up 4. SCUM #1 was viciously subdued by SIDON in a crowd pleasing 4 minute Challenge brawl. Ah, I had wondered what was behind Scum #3's name, and now I see: Scum #1, with a sharp stick. SANDPAWN (11-4169) (48-21-1,199) of ANDORIAN KNIGHTS challenged KITALA THE BOLD (78-875) (83-101-2,249) of SAND DANCERS. Up 50. SANDPAWN was savagely defeated by KITALA THE BOLD in a 6 minute Challenge melee. A bold challenge and a tough fight. May the skills have been abundant. And for the title: FATHER OF ALL MUNS (20-2306) (33-43-1,219) of THE FAMILY TREE challenged ATONEMENT (82-761) (48-25-0,398) of A UNIT XV. Up 179. FATHER OF ALL MUNS viciously subdued ATONEMENT in a 2 minute Challenge Title fight. An amazing upset victory which gives us a new face on the throne. Congratulations to Father. I suspect the Split will happen before we meet here again; it will be interesting to see who has the top spot THEN, eh? To those of you who are leaving for Primus, and to those who are remaining behind, fare well for the next four weeks, and you can't IMAGINE how glad I am to have reached the end of this spy report!

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE Egan Forn -- I used to be able to bare-knuckle beat you down like you stole something in one minute but it now takes two minutes. You are getting better! Let's see what happens if I fight you naked and without a weapon. -- Matador (stepping into arena wearing nothing but a smile) Kitala The Rude -- That is correct! I suck in the arena but I don't care. I am showing up each week anyway. -- Sandblaster (picking his teeth with his long spear) Kitala The Rude -- Let's see how you do against me. Afterwards I am heading off to the death and taxes tourney to become a tournament champion. -- Sandpawn (bragging on his seventh win in a row now) Mirta -- My right arm feels like you cut it off. Your skill with sword disarmed me. I'll salute you but I can't raise my arm up yet. -- Stonewall (still waiting to learn final riposte skill) Good luck with that. They tell me your best bet is to fight someone whose favorite learn is riposte. Kyra -- Good effort but victory is mine. Do not feel too bad, it was just last week when I was carried to the healers. -- Sandman (wondering why no one cares anymore about his stable downchallenging in this feud) Atonement -- Good fight; I really hope that you will be leaving soon. -- Paul Scum #1 -- You really are a Scum. -- Dunedin Snooper -- You sure are a sneaky guy. -- Wheel of Fortune All -- So who will be leaving us to go off to Primus. If your guys do go to Primus you have the chance to learn 5 more skills in each area and you can also learn back any skills that you lost due to burning skills. I hope that helps. -- the Mun Abby -- The increased training and learning are for any one that fights in DM 102 (Primus). I have seen it on my guys that are there. My understanding is that with stat training it is something like the first 5 stat raises are like your first one. Also you do get skills faster. -- the Mun Scribe -- Could you please give us a list of the Managers and their teams here in Crysalis. Thanks. -- the Mun I can try, though I don't have the updated manager lists. Normally the Saint does this, but she's out of town. Hammer -- Welcome to Crysalis. I hope that you will stay a while. -- the Mun All -- I would like to welcome all the new teams that have arrived in the last couple of turns. -- the Mun Father of Muns -- How do you tell if you are about to go to Primus? If you have a formula that gets close to predicting it, would you give it to me? -- Abby, A-Unit Stonewall -- They tell me plastics are the coming thing these days. Lighter than stone (wouldn't be hard) and often stronger (hard to believe). Maybe you need to check out the possibilities. -- Mirta Matador -- I'm not going to sneeze at five skills. That's one advantage to fighting warriors more experienced than I am. Gotta take what I can get, eh? -- Egan Forn Prookie -- Madam, that was insane! Of course, we do know something about the warriors who graduate from Lin Tirian, so perhaps it shouldn't be a surprise. -- Dannia tyl Sio, by birth and inclination Adantri (I started in Miroi T'Chi-Chang), regardless of what the Commission thinks Sandblaster -- Unlucky match for you. -- Kitala Sandman -- Do you find that being basically made of sand, or of a sandlike nature, at least, that you are unable to take a high polish? I just wondered, because polish seems to be IN this season. -- Kyra Sodom -- Oh, right, I should have remembered how bad sodium is for snow and ice. Ouch! -- Snowfall AK47 -- Gateway is no more. But you can train back the burned skills in Primus now, as well as train a few extra skills on top of the original twenty-per-type. Of course, once you get to Primus, you'll get stuck at the bottom of a very accomplished heap of warriors, which isn't all that much fun. But you CAN get those burned skills back, along with the extras. -- Leeta Abby -- It doesn't seem to matter who you fight in Primus, the skills are there to be learned. I don't think my warriors have fought any, or at least many, of the former Gateway warriors, but they seem to learn skills every turn. Mind you, I'm not SURE whether my warriors have fought any or how many Gateway warriors, because I don't keep track of that. But definitely, skills every turn. One got five last time! I have heard that there is also a bonus to stat training but have no personal knowledge of that, either of how easy it might be, or whether or not it involves a new chance to burn skills. But it seems that the warriors who did not go to Gateway are being given a fair chance to catch up. I don't know if it will ever level out, since the TIME involved cannot be made up--new warriors are always going to be less experienced. But every reasonable chance to achieve balance is open, so far as I can tell. -- Leeta Elderberry -- Nah, except for some almost accidental graduates of temporarily transfered teams, if it's a Sand Dancer, it's Adantri. Even the ones who ran briefly in Lyratilan, Ardivent, Tricorus, and Fratsfa are Adantri (they were run in to bolster faltering arenas and pulled out when no longer needed there), though some of them are having trouble with the Commission on that. -- Leeta, Sand Dancers of Crysalis P.S. I like aimers, too, but at the moment I seem to be heavily into rippers. P.P.S. Maybe we'll have another aimed blow contest in Lirin Kiv and you can come? 27 March 2004 This notice is to inform the DM world that CHAOS INC. has added CHEETO to its ranks. He joins APEX, FLAGG, MATRIX, ASSAMITE, and RUDE BUDDHA as the 6th member. May your chaotic wings spread disaster and CHAOS for all your days! Welcome CHEETO!! 27 March 2004 Has anyone seen it in print that the "Goat" is leaving the "Cartel"? There were some diplos to the effect of a special branch of the Cartel being formed, like secret societies, governmental agencies and alliances certain agendas are developed. To obtain the desired effect of any agenda only key personnel can be used. The "Goat" is "Cartel" so until you see it with me announcing that I am not Cartel, remember, "The Agenda of the Core is for you to fight for." I hope this stops the confusion. -- Goat 8 April 2004 CLICK (KLK) -- Remember, you asked for it. Chaos is coming.... 14 April 2004 CHAOS Inc. proudly announces our newest member, Silver Stroke. He becomes the seventh brother of Chaos. We shall indeed be better for his joining. LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS FATHER OF ALL MUNS viciously subdued ATONEMENT in a 2 minute Challenge Title fight.
