                         Reflections by the Chief Tower Guard

As suspected, I am going to be forced off to Primus shortly.  And as Crip the Wise
pointed out, none of his other Crap will be joining me.  However, don't fret, as 6 of
his other Crap will be returning from Primus to do battle here, including Former TCs
Irritating Beggar and Venomous Porcupine, along with German Shepard, George Washing
Ten, Pet Cemetary and Major Damage.  It's going to make for some tought budgetary
decisions to decide who gets to fight and who doesn't.

How did everyone else's split go?

The Tower Guardian Of Crysalis

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Oh, dear.  Really, what else can I say?  Debby Tonte took the "color" part of
these notes, and her outlook is... original.  No doubt the uproar (quite normal, mind
you, there were no untoward events) surrounding a tourney, especially a tourney of
the DEAD, has scrambled what little she has in the way of brains.  It says here that
the "Mutt Voted Prettiest" is Toadkiller Dog.  Ah.  Have any of you LOOKED at T. Dog
lately?  Looked CLOSELY?  More to the point, has DEBBIE looked?
     The Bear's Paw was most avoided.  Royal Flush, arriving from the same arena, so
they probably know whereof they avoid, was the most avoiding.  Brand got the most
challenges.
     We had thirty fights, involving a mere two standbys.  Nine challenges, none of
them TV, but wait till next time.  We may do better then.  Nobody died.  The longest
fight was a respectable sixteen minutes.  This is all good.  Do it some more.

     All of which is mere prelude:  Here are the fights.  Short and fairly colorless,
because the whole of the spy reporting staff, down to the merest scribe and office
cat, is cringing at the mass of data to be embodied in the tourney report, but here
IS the Crysalis spy report.

     AMELIA (28-3417) (20-3-1,64) of DODGE BULLETS fought UNEMPLOYED PERSON (106-5)
(0-0-0,70) of the College of Mimes.  AMELIA was overpowered by UNEMPLOYED PERSON in a
1 minute uneven bout.  This is a very FORCEFUL Unemployed Person, as others have
noted.
     DESPERADO (28-1152) (23-27-1,79) of DODGE BULLETS fought UNEMPLOYED PERSON (106-
5) (0-0-0,70) of the College of Mimes.  DESPERADO was overpowered by UNEMPLOYED
PERSON in a 1 minute one-sided fight.  So forceful that he can fight twice in a row
and win them both.
     MY SLEEP (47-5657) (16-8-1,57) of THINGS I DROOL IN fought LADY DOMINGA (28-
3702) (19-40-0,72) of FILIPINA LADYZ.  MY SLEEP was overcome by LADY DOMINGA in an
exciting 2 minute brutal fight.  You know, I don't think I want to learn any more
about this.
     ROXANNE DE'MORRE (50-3449) (27-23-0,83) of DRUID'S GROVE fought TWINK (5-4396)
(20-9-2,87) of PAPER MARIO.  ROXANNE DE'MORRE overpowered TWINK in an action packed 1
minute one-sided fight.  Tiddly-wink that, eh?
     GERRICK GRIMM (50-3530) (16-16-0,64) of DRUID'S GROVE fought GHOST DANCER (28-
3365) (25-15-0,59) of DODGE BULLETS.  GERRICK GRIMM overpowered GHOST DANCER in a 1
minute uneven competition.  Not a good omen for one who would adventure.  Tough luck,
G. Dancer.
     LITTLE DEVIL (14-4359) (19-19-0,69) of PLAYPEN fought KARATIA (73-3624) (17-4-
1,56) of KIWI CONNECTION.  LITTLE DEVIL was handily defeated by KARATIA in a 1 minute
uneven bout.  What trumps a little devil, hmm?  Besides... oh, a mother, say.  Tough
negotiators, mothers.

     BILLY LILLY (28-3416) (26-13-1,92) of DODGE BULLETS fought VIOLET VULTURE (11-
6612) (22-4-0,86) of ANIMAL FARM.  BILLY LILLY slimly lost to VIOLET VULTURE in an
action packed 5 minute bout.  And here I was told that William was a mighty hunter!
How does that song go?  "Big bad Bill is sweet William now?"
     LADY CONSOLACION (28-3703) (25-34-3,96) of FILIPINA LADYZ fought BLACK FLAG (82-
46046) (23-14-3,78) of TONGUE N CHEEK.  LADY CONSOLACION was defeated by BLACK FLAG
in an exciting 1 minute bout.  Ouch.
     URG GUTSPILLER (59-2561) (26-15-1,137) of VILE REAVERS fought MOSGIEL (14-3836)
(28-14-1,110) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS.  URG GUTSPILLER was overpowered by MOSGIEL in a 1
minute uneven fight.  Ah!  And whose guts are on the sands now, Urg?
     HARI-KARI (73-3049) (16-5-0,135) of WAY TO GO! II fought YOUNG JOAN (28-3534)
(28-20-1,105) of DODGE BULLETS.  HARI-KARI demolished YOUNG JOAN in an action packed
1 minute one-sided fight.  Hard times, very hard times, Young.  Maybe it was a
mistake to fight on the Isle while also attempting to sustain an adventure?
     BLUE BLOOD (73-3657) (20-10-1,127) of BLACK & BLUE fought SIPPYCUP SAM (14-4280)
(21-17-3,102) of PLAYPEN.  BLUE BLOOD vanquished SIPPYCUP SAM in a popular 1 minute
mismatched fray.  Doesn't look like we'll ever get a glimpse of that cerulean blood.

     TAOS (26-4042) (22-12-1,176) of HERE TO PHOENIX fought AGLIBOL (12-5848) (39-35-
1,179) of DARKMOON.  TAOS viciously subdued AGLIBOL in a popular 2 minute gruesome
match.  Probably through the use of Taos Lightning.  Potent stuff, that.  I can
almost remember my introduction to it.
     WEINERMUN (37-2635) (57-55-3,173) of ALL THE MUN'S MEN fought LOOGIE CLAP (82-
46049) (24-14-2,101) of TONGUE N CHEEK.  WEINERMUN devastated LOOGIE CLAP in a
popular 1 minute one-sided contest.  That is one tough dog!
     PAT (35-2292) (45-46-2,204) of COMMON JOE'S fought BRIARTHORN (12-5671) (42-40-
2,177) of DARKMOON.  PAT savagely defeated BRIARTHORN in a popular 3 minute bloody
match.  And a mess it was indeed to clean up after.
     BOARISH YELTSIN (5-3109) (68-43-2,373) of PARTY ANIMALS fought AVONSIDE (13-
3927) (35-44-1,207) of KIWI CONNECTION.  BOARISH YELTSIN overpowered AVONSIDE in a 1
minute one-sided match.  The problem was telling when the fight ended and when the
party began.
     JACK VALTRAEDS (47-407) (109-68-2,226) of ROYAL FLUSH fought THE WHEAT KING (58-
5407) (75-60-2,193) of AUTUMN LIGHTNING.  JACK VALTRAEDS was viciously subdued by THE
WHEAT KING in a 16 minute brawl.  Our longest fight, and a free drink to each
participant.  We have to remember that this is a SLOW arena and slow down on the
sands.

     DISCO QUEEN (47-1992) (47-24-1,224) of ROYAL FLUSH fought UNCERTAIN OMELET (47-
3786) (22-11-0,209) of MYSTIC ORC FEAST.  DISCO QUEEN won victory over UNCERTAIN
OMELET in an exciting 2 minute fray.  Did she blind the omelet with the flashing
lights, or eat it?  Inquiring minds may possibly wonder.
     NEWT GINGRICH (5-3399) (86-28-0,237) of PARTY ANIMALS fought TOADKILLER DOG (47-
1103) (35-17-1,199) of WASTED SCUM.  NEWT GINGRICH was narrowly defeated by
TOADKILLER DOG in a popular 3 minute duel.  This is, don't forget, the Mutt Voted
Prettiest.  I'm not seeing it.
     GRINNON BEARIT (47-2955) (46-31-4,216) of THE BEAR'S PAW fought PAUL (35-2349)
(39-40-2,207) of COMMON JOE'S.  GRINNON BEARIT demolished PAUL in a crowd pleasing 1
minute bloody one-sided brawl.  So long as Grinnon isn't using this to start a fast
food "joint" featuring "Sloppy Joes," I think we're okay.
     DUTCH TREAT (26-1841) (102-36-2,231) of WORLDWIDE GORE fought BEAR ACUDA (47-
4995) (31-24-1,203) of THE BEAR'S PAW.  DUTCH TREAT bested BEAR ACUDA in a 2 minute
battle.  The key here, the one the bookies worked with (point spread, you know,
that's what people bet on in some of these matches), is that no one at the Commission
called this a "mismatch" or "one-sided."  This speaks well of Ms. Acuda.
     CRUMBSNATCHER (72-1842) (52-32-1,233) of ONE GOOD DUDE fought MORTICIAN (2-3890)
(79-20-1,243) of DARK TOADS.  CRUMBSNATCHER was narrowly defeated by MORTICIAN in a
crowd pleasing 7 minute match.  Snatched like a crumb himself!

     Ah!  There's something to be said for brevity, I see, becasue here we are at the
challenge matches already.  Good.
     GENERAL PUBLIC (31-3112) (21-20-1,139) of MILITARY MAYHEM challenged BEARNICE
(47-2847) (30-39-7,151) of THE BEAR'S PAW.  Up 12.  GENERAL PUBLIC was overpowered by
BEARNICE in a 2 minute uneven Challenge match.  No surprise here, the General Public
is always getting the worst of it.
     HORAGALLES (31-5212) (21-18-2,117) of SOL INVICTUS challenged ADAM'S APPLE (52-
3203) (25-12-0,138) of OTTO'S PARTS.  Up 21.  HORAGALLES was vanquished by ADAM'S
APPLE in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge duel.  This is amazing, and it contradicts
all expectation.  After all, an apple a day keeps the doctor away, and yet I
distinctly saw a doctor hovering over Horagalles after the fight.
     BALCLUTHA (14-3169) (34-43-1,210) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS challenged RANDOM MATCHUP
(96-1048) (35-15-4,233) of OVERRATED.  Up 13.  BALCLUTHA viciously subdued RANDOM
MATCHUP in an action packed 2 minute Challenge duel.  Appropriate.
     DUNEDIN (14-3703) (32-50-0,191) of OTAGO HIGHLANDERS challenged HUNGRY BONES
(31-4720) (24-14-1,184) of UNFIT TO BE ORCS.  Down 7.  DUNEDIN viciously subdued
HUNGRY BONES in an action packed 3 minute Challenge fight.  Ah.  Stone soup, I
presume.

     WHACKING WILLOW (52-3167) (42-13-1,201) of FLOWER GIRLS challenged BALDER (28-
3778) (30-25-3,204) of VALHALLA.  Up 3.  WHACKING WILLOW luckily beat BALDER in an
exciting 4 minute bloody Challenge struggle.  Luck?  Don't think so.  I saw a lot of
skill and precision there.
     KING FORADAY (47-3762) (56-51-4,194) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged FIVE GOLDEN RINGS
(16-4331) (38-7-0,196) of GOLDEN GLADIATORS.  Up 2.  KING FORADAY overpowered FIVE
GOLDEN RINGS in a 2 minute mismatched Challenge match.  And now the king has rings on
his fingers, though I can't tell about his toes.
     DAIRY QUEEN (47-2685) (76-44-3,191) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged WHEEL OF FORTUNE
(25-2529) (50-48-2,201) of DUELING FOR DOLLARS.  Up 10.  DAIRY QUEEN unbelievably
bested WHEEL OF FORTUNE in a 2 minute Challenge brawl.  "Unbelievable"?  What is
there to doubt?
     BRAND (82-13289) (46-31-1,249) of TOADS OF AMBER III challenged MAD CAT (7-2965)
(58-37-6,249) of INSP GADGETS MINIONS.  Straight across.  BRAND vanquished MAD CAT in
an exciting 1 minute gory uneven Challenge battle.  Brand... did I see some note
about Brand somewhere?  Ah, yes, most challenged.  Odd, but these things happen.

     And for the title:  FOUNTAIN TROLL (73-643) (86-26-2,401) of D.A. REJECTS
challenged STIGMA OF STUPID (31-4948) (36-17-1,241) of UNFIT TO BE ORCS.  Down 160
from the throne.  FOUNTAIN TROLL bested STIGMA OF STUPID in a 1 minute Challenge
Title fight.  Clearly, F. Troll is not one to bear the stigma of stupidity.
Congratulations, and fare you well (nobody does, but we can offer our best wishes) in
Primus.

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Congrats again to The Fountain Troll, Chief Tower Guardian. -- The Consortium Elders

Primus, Primus, Primus ....... sorry to see you go, Fountain Troll.  NOT!  And take
all the CCs with you!  And for your Master Crip, nope!  No Mortician.  No Brand.
Just measly Eligibles.  Nananananana. -- You know Who

Epimondas -- All right!  You were there again.  I just love those MUGS! -- Twink

Urg Gutspiller -- I like guts.  (wink)  And I had lots of fun.  I did. -- Tiny Tim

Crumbsnatcher -- Like Crip said, you are a good one.  You surely know how to show a
gal a good time.  I DID love every minute of it, but next time let's go for a
looooooooooooooong one! (snicker) -- Whacking Willow

Aglibol -- It took all I had. -- Diamond

Horagalles -- Not only doe you have a few little mars on your face from me, but your
name sounds like it should also.  What's with that? -- Zit

Black Flag -- Ya missed me; ya missed me; now ya gotta kiss me!  Pucker up! -- Violet
Vulture (feeling really starved at the moment)

Good luck in The Mailer.  Let's bring home some TVs to Crysallis. -- All The
Consortium Folk

Crysalis -- Oooh, Look!  The Slow Arana News is back!  I wonder if DM83 can be added
to those listings. -- Crip, mgr of all of Crip's Crap

     Yes, it should be in this time.

Balclutha -- So, are we both off to Primus? -- Fountain Troll

Random Matchup -- That result has earned me a temporary vacation. -- King Uvdahell

Pat -- Didn't think I'd outlast you like that.  I usually like to keep the tempo up
on the dance floor. -- Disco Queen

Uncertain Omelet -- With those knockdowns, I've had my eggs scrambled. -- King
Foraday

Balder -- I have no hair, only feathers, so how can you be Balder? -- Phillip the
Bird

Wretchedmisery -- You seem to be forcing me up the ranks faster than I would like. --
Taos

Lady Consolacion -- Cuban ladies, si.  Filipina Ladies, non. -- Cuba

The Wheat King -- So, which MUG did you Royally piss off. -- Boarish Yeltsin

     #84723, also known as Kurmusht.

Spatha -- Not the kindest matchup you've ever received, but they all get tougher up
here. -- Newt Gingrich

Wheel of Fortune -- Can I buy a W, or What? -- FIghter Ace

Stigma of Stupid -- Wow!  I have to say I'm impressed. -- Dairy Queen

Weinermun -- Are you sure you are the same Weinermun that was fighting here before
Mun took a temporary leave of absence -- Boddington's

Bearnice -- Nice Comeback.  But you won't be doing that to me much longer. -- Hari-
Kari

Loogie Clap -- Only 1 minute?  Were you not feeling well. -- General Public

All -- Depending on the state of our paperwork, which HAS been sent in, we either
fought our last fight here four weeks ago or will be doing our last today.  Since we
came here in search of the Shallowship, which has departed for other harbors, we must
do likewise. -- Epimonidas, Dogs of War
P.S.  I believer our replacements will be from Dodge Bullets of Morya.  They may be a
bit distracted, what with being in the early stage of (shudder) an adventure.
P.P.S.  I would presume it's running in the Morya newsletter, if anyone wants to
track it down.

Blue Blood -- Darn.  I was trying to spill some of yours, to see if it really is
blue, and I just couldn't.  Drat. -- Jimmy Custer
P.S.  I wanted to say "damn," but Jorja won't let me.  Too prim.  I tell her I'm a
man of war, or at least a dog of war, and I would speak without euphemisms, but does
she listen?  Heck, no!

Mosgiel -- You're no gentleman!  Besides, I never did trust blond men. -- Lysistrata
P.S.  I'm not sure I'd want a beautiful relationship with a blond.  But I might be
interested in a vulgar, earthy one.

Sippycup Sam -- (sigh)  I'll be glad to return to retirement. -- Pericles

Little Devil -- (twirling his mustache)  Quite a one, aren't you?  It would be my
pleasure to take you to dinner. -- Sherman

Twink -- I've heard a lot about you, and none of it good. -- Epimonidas
