Reflections by the Chief Tower Guard
Cannonball, why the challenge? A random matchup would have done as well and so
much more fun. You almost had me too. Maybe next time if the random matches allow.

PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE
All -- 0-5, we can't do any worse. -- Cannonball
But nobody DIED.
Those reporters are FOOLS. Tell Ski Mask he's most popular, and there's no living
with him. -- Glacier the indignant
Yourbagd Forever -- You BRIBED the stewards to put YOUR bag over MY head before the
fight! Nobody told me I'd have to fight my way out of a paper bag before the fight,
or I'd have brought my scissors, even if it meant running with them. -- Ski Mask,
Founder and President of Ducks with Swords, brooding darkly
Uncle Fester is all hands, and I do NOT like it. Dirty hands, too. -- Amelia
Hagar Bluetooth -- It wasn't the color so much as the smell. -- Young Joan
Mindquake -- Amazing how many problems can be solved by scraping them off with a
sheet of ice, eh? -- Glacier
If I had more energy, I'd take offense at Ketchum's comment. Why should I not defeat
you? -- Ghost Dancer
In sum, three-two for us. -- Glacier
Folks, I am leaving Duel II for personal reasons. I have no idea whether I may
return, but don't count on it. I will remain active in Lapur (29) and Jade Mountain
(75), and that's it. I have enjoyed knowing you. Fare you well. -- Jorja

JASPER GULCH: DM 85
Zeb Karan around the big table. Arena staff of all ranks and titles sat and
stared at each other: arenamasters, standbys, Dark Arena warriors, stewards and
infirmarians, even the maintenance crew. This was not the first time they'd met like
this, and it probably wouldn't be the last.
"So this is it again, is it?" Lew Voth asked. "Less than seven years since they
closed Dwes Eg to new teams, and now they're closing Blackstone?"
"Only to new teams," one of the spymasters pointed out. "And it's necessary.
There are several file rooms we haven't been able to enter in months because they're
too full of team records."
"Nothing you couldn't fix with a lighted match," Jame Rinvar suggested.
Technically he should not have been there, since he'd taken over full time as the
arenamaster of Shadowspire. But no one wanted to tell him to leave.
"We may NEED those records one of these days," Chief Steward Hesselrod protested.
"We can't burn RECORDS."
"I could," Rinvar said.
"But you won't." Voth pinned him with a stare. "Don't stir up trouble for its
own sake, Jame."
Rinvar raised his hand in a gesture of surrender. "I'll be good, Lew."
"When are they shutting down Blackstone?"
"To new teams only, remember--the old ones will keep fighting if their managers
want to pay the fees. This week. Maybe next week. Hard to be sure, when you travel
from Alastari to anywhere else, there's a time distortion effect. But probably this
week. Same operating rules as Dwes Eg (82): no new teams in, but the old ones can
recruit new members. New teams will go to the new place--" Zeb Karan cast a look of
enquiry around the room.
"Jasper Gulch," a steward said.
"Right. New teams will go to Jasper Gulch. I'm not sure the day for it, probably
'opposite' Blackstone in the schedule. A regular two-week cycle. Teams can be
transfered in from regular arenas, I suppose, but not OUT."
Voth nodded. "We can work with this."
"Beats not working."
SEAM (DM 20) REOPENS AS A NEW NO-TOURNEY ARENA!
Seam (DM 20) will be re-opening soon as a no-tourney DM arena! If you enjoy arena
play without tournament interference, this arena is for you! Only rookie teams may
enter this arena, and all managers must sign the "no-tourney" pledge. Turn 0 is due
on May 4 (overviews only) and Turn 1 is due on May 18.
To avoid confusion, all old inactive teams which were in Seam have travelled to
Mazgourrah (DM 77).
Seam is the newest arena to join the no-tourney group of arenas and will process on
opposite weeks with Shadowspire (DM 81), the original no-tourney arena. Other no-
tourney arenas include Telorinthe (DM 83), a slow arena, and Storm Rock (DM 107), for
ADM warriors.
Join in the fun! Send in your new rollup along with the pledge soon so you can get in
on the ground floor of this new arena!
********************************************************************************
NO-TOURNEY ARENA PLEDGE
* I pledge that I will not send warriors from this team to a tournament, nor
will I use a tournament prize on a warrior from this team.
* I pledge to run a full team when I run turns in this arena. If circumstances
preclude my running less than a full team, I will notify the Player Committee.
* I agree to abide by the decisions of the Player Committee.
* I understand that any warrior that participates in a tournament or receives
a tournament prize shall be sent to the Dark Arena until they are dead.
