DM 83 TELORINTHE (turn 58): ACCORDION of OLDIES (Coach, mgr.) REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER Here we are, and the tourney has been fought, though not yet written up. The Split is coming but not here. SNOW is coming but not here yet. Life goes on. And the fights went on. I got terribly excited when I looked at the fight card for the day: FORTY-SEVEN fights! Then I read farther and discovered that there were twenty-two standbys involved.... Still, we're ahead of all the regionals and Home Guard, so eh to them. The sudden uprush of fight numbers (more than doubled) seems to be due to a massive presence by Crip. Ah, by Crip's warriors. Lots of 'em. This works for me. Out of those forty-seven fights, fourteen were challenge matches. Some advanced arenas don't even have fourteen FIGHTS on one day, so we have an excuse to thumb our noses at them. Although why one would thumb one's nose is beyond me. Tabby of Felines got the biggest point gain at twenty-eight. Hunzicker Bowl got the biggest drop at twenty-five. Different fights. Whacking Willow got the most challenges, which makes it odd that she fought a random match, but there it is. Steel Blades was most avoided, with Royal Flush avoiding them the most. I'm going to rush through the fights because a) nearly half of them involve standbys and I don't feel like talking about standbys, and b) the needs of the tourney spy report are pressing hard on the available time. PETER THE GREAT (71-6230) (16-8-4,60) of DOGS OF WAR fought SUPER GROVER (50- 3413) (13-4-0,63) of OPEN SESAME. PETER THE GREAT was handily defeated by SUPER GROVER in a 1 minute mismatched contest. Interesting, a couple of young hotshots, who may or may not have tourney experience. I'd have bet on Peter, though, so it's a good thing I didn't bet at all. TORANS ULRIK (72-6399) (14-18-0,34) of MIDDLE WAY 9 fought UNEMPLOYED PERSON (106-5) (0-0-0,70) of the College of Mimes. TORANS ULRIK was demolished by UNEMPLOYED PERSON in a 1 minute one-sided fight. WASNIS (83-224) (22-15-0,84) of OLLIS HEROES fought QUITA REMMING (83-294) (17- 20-0,38) of MIDDLE WAY 21. WASNIS handily defeated QUITA REMMING in a 1 minute one- sided bout. A home-town match, though not deliberate. LILAS KEELER (73-5840) (19-17-1,70) of MIDDLE WAY 18 fought ACE FREHLEY (47- 3669) (13-10-0,78) of ROYAL FLUSH. LILAS KEELER was handily defeated by ACE FREHLEY in a 1 minute one-sided duel. I can understand why Lilas is talking about retirement. PIT FIEND (81-1344) (18-17-1,72) of MONSTER MANUAL fought ORRIE POLLAS (83-295) (19-19-2,59) of MIDDLE WAY 21. PIT FIEND overpowered ORRIE POLLAS in a popular 1 minute uneven bout. Orrie says he "didin't sign up to fight monsters." He didn't? That's news to many of us. OPASAN (28-4381) (23-19-1,93) of PHANTACITY fought KARIN LO (83-292) (16-22- 0,55) of MIDDLE WAY 21. OPASAN demolished KARIN LO in a 1 minute uneven fight. It's okay, Opasan, Karin's used to losing. ADAM'S APPLE (52-3203) (29-15-0,147) of OTTO'S PARTS fought IMPRISONED SPY (106- 9) (0-0-0,170) of the College of Mimes. ADAM'S APPLE subdued IMPRISONED SPY in a popular 2 minute match. THE LION KING (47-6360) (23-7-0,118) of ROYAL FLUSH fought CLEVER (50-2192) (52- 34-2,134) of RANDOM BLADES. THE LION KING slimly lost to CLEVER in a crowd pleasing 2 minute melee. Make that, "to Clever and Experienced." LONDON QUIREBOY (59-2513) (34-16-1,180) of CHAPEL ROCK fought EVIL INPUTTER (106-7) (0-0-0,110) of the College of Mimes. LONDON QUIREBOY handily defeated EVIL INPUTTER in a 2 minute mismatched fight. BULL FROG (73-4547) (32-16-0,171) of THE BULLS fought HAGAR BLUETOOTH (10-5850) (31-5-1,173) of VIKINGS. BULL FROG was bested by HAGAR BLUETOOTH in a crowd pleasing 6 minute gruesome match. Frog-gigging in the arena?

NUMBSKULL was overcome by CRYSALIS GUARD in an exciting 1 minute fight. UZI (44-1701) (33-33-1,190) of BLOWN AWAY fought VILLAINOUS INFORMER (106-23) (0-0-0,181) of the College of Mimes.

THE REFEREE viciously subdued AMBER WOLFWALKER in a crowd pleasing 2 minute bout.

KING FORADAY slimly won victory over LOOGIE CLAP in a popular 2 minute brutal fight. Aha! A fight with two managed warriors once again. Good work out there, both of you.

Was this a fight at the Malamute Saloon? Or wherever it was that Dan Mackgrew was killed. It was on the tundra, and I'm sure Dan had a rotten liver. All that rotgut whiskey, you know. JIVE (25-624) (107-67-1,241) of CRYPTICS fought ARENAMASTER SANDAVOL (106-28) (0-0-0,200) of the College of Mimes. JIVE was demolished by ARENAMASTER SANDAVOL in an exciting 2 minute one-sided bout.

I make that 10-12 for the standbys, which isn't bad considering their level of management. The challenges: QUEEN (82-33307) (17-7-0,142) of DARK TOADS 05Q challenged CRIMSON MIST (8-5047) (36-28-1,164) of BLOOD RITES. Up 22. QUEEN overpowered CRIMSON MIST in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge duel. And a well-judged twenty-two it was. A GROUNDSKEEPER (45-1613) (33-29-1,150) of AVID FANS challenged AMELIA (28-3417) (44-31-1,157) of DODGE BULLETS. Up 7. A GROUNDSKEEPER demolished AMELIA in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge brawl. That'll teach her to land her airplane on just any old piece of ground! BLACK JACK SHELACK (47-4850) (37-24-2,179) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged GHOST DANCER (28-3365) (49-43-0,182) of DODGE BULLETS. Up 3. BLACK JACK SHELACK was handily defeated by GHOST DANCER in a 1 minute contest. Amazing. I wonder if Ghost Dancer is on the wrong team? He has a winning record, after all. BEERVAHNA (60-4292) (39-34-3,209) of INGRATE WHITE NORTH challenged JAVELIN (82- 33234) (23-9-0,209) of THE WEAPONS. Straight across. BEERVAHNA was demolished by JAVELIN in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge match. I suspect tourney fights in Javelin's past. Either that, or excellent luck today. Or both. VIKING RAIDER (54-2885) (24-8-1,206) of SPARF! challenged VIOLATOR (44-2122) (57-44-1,208) of DEMONIC FURY. Up 2. VIKING RAIDER handily defeated VIOLATOR in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge bout.

CUBA (26-3917) (33-14-0,183) of HERE TO PHOENIX challenged GODSMACK (82-48417) (27-21-0,186) of TONGUE N CHEEK. Up 3. CUBA vanquished GODSMACK in an exciting 1 minute one-sided Challenge fight. Odd, I wouldn't have thought-- Oh, I see! Totally different reference. Okay, um, good work, Cuba. SITS ON HIS DUFF (73-1810) (44-26-4,190) of THINGS GEORGE DOES challenged TAMMY FAYE (39-3520) (29-29-0,191) of WITLESS WONDERS. Up 1. SITS ON HIS DUFF vanquished TAMMY FAYE in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge duel. Yes, but George sits MASTERFULLY. PHILLIP THE BIRD (40-3708) (21-17-1,204) of CRUEL PET NAMES challenged STINGRAY (30-2264) (35-37-0,208) of STEEL BLADES. Up 4. PHILLIP THE BIRD won victory over STINGRAY in a 2 minute Challenge duel. The things people do to their pets! TRASH CAN (50-3403) (21-4-4,201) of OPEN SESAME challenged HUNTSMAN (7-5837) (37-22-0,209) of SENTINELS. Up 8. TRASH CAN was overpowered by HUNTSMAN in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge brawl. The clerk has scrawled a note on my program here that is, ah, rude and derogatory, so I'll pass on that but... I can't get it out of my mind long enough to come up with another. Sorry. FIGHTER ACE (47-1189) (76-52-6,185) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged BLACK FLAG (82- 46046) (51-38-4,189) of TONGUE N CHEEK. Up 4. FIGHTER ACE devastated BLACK FLAG in a popular 3 minute bloody uneven Challenge brawl. Well, that's what fighter aces DO. BURGER KING (47-4152) (41-35-3,193) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged ASHAR (30-1777) (57-48-3,194) of STEEL BLADES. Up 1. BURGER KING was devastated by ASHAR in an exciting 1 minute one-sided Challenge fight. And then Ashar went looking for the fries.... BASE ON BULLS (73-3101) (32-11-4,187) of THE BULLS challenged WYNETT (30-2340) (48-45-2,189) of STEEL BLADES. Up 2. BASE ON BULLS narrowly defeated WYNETT in an action packed 6 minute Challenge fight. Very narrow, to have taken six minutes. Does this mean that Wynett is a bullfighter? DAIRY QUEEN (47-2685) (99-50-3,219) of ROYAL FLUSH challenged HAZE (82-49272) (33-19-0,244) of NORTHERN LIGHTS. Up 25. DAIRY QUEEN vanquished HAZE in a 2 minute uneven Challenge battle. Hmm, I've found that a DQ on a hazy morning does the same for me, i.e., vanquishes the haze. BODDINGTON'S (21-5035) (27-15-0,213) of REAL BEER challenged YOUNG JOAN (28- 3534) (43-57-1,213) of DODGE BULLETS. Straight across. BODDINGTON'S bested YOUNG JOAN in a crowd pleasing 2 minute Challenge fight. Not a beer-drinker, Joan. For the title: Most-Challenged WHACKING WILLOW (52-3167) (56-20-1,288) of FLOWER GIRLS fought DUTCH TREAT (26-1841) (134-38-2,419) of WORLDWIDE GORE. WHACKING WILLOW was viciously subdued by DUTCH TREAT in a 10 minute Title duel. And the Willow is out after a long, er, tussle, and the Treat is in. Well, that's the season, after all.

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE Way short on time today, the tourney spy report notes just landed on my desk, and that's going to keep me busy for the next several days. So no itemized personals from Dodge Bullets and Company today. On a different note, I'm thinking of retiring those of my gladiators who are currently fighting here and bringing in some newer, fresher ones. Any preferences as to arena of origin and / or competition level? I'm thinking "all freshmen," but I can be flexible about this. -- Jorja LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS BODDINGTON'S bested YOUNG JOAN in a crowd pleasing 2 minute Challenge fight.
