THE GUARDIAN'S FORUM
Reflections by the Chief Tower Guard
Now that was an exciting fight! It seems like the third time was the charm. Looks
like Hriefomar the Red is up next. I just hope I can hang on to the Tower Guardian
spot for more than one turn.
-- Cannon Ball
REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER
Well, hello there!
First off, I want to thank Cannonball for writing a column. Well done, and many
thanks! Unfortunately he was defeated this turn, so it'll be up to someone else to
write the next one.
There were fourteen fights today including three challenges (all by the same
guild), exactly the same numbers as last time. No one avoided anyone. I know you're
all not afraid of other gladiators, but it still makes good sense, strategically, to
post avoids. You should try it.
All right, let's look at the fights...
CANNONBALL (72-5313) (54-66-3,244) of X-POSSE challenged HREIDMAR THE RED (10-
6148) (38-18-0,224) of VIKINGS. CANNONBALL was bested by HREIDMAR THE RED in a 1
minute Challenge Title fight. So, Cannonball is still our top Lunger and overall
popularity leader, Hreidmar is still the top Aimed Blow, but Hreidmar is now the Tower
Guardian. Tower Guardian. That's what they have in Talahya. Wouldn't you like a
title here in Crysalis that's a bit more creative? Does anyone have any suggestions?
CRYBABY (72-5853) (20-31-1,100) of OUTLAWS challenged DEEDERS (28-5419) (24-16-
1,150) of TEAM KASSEL TAP. CRYBABY vanquished DEEDERS in an exciting 1 minute uneven
Challenge battle.
COPYCAT (72-5854) (19-26-1,80) of OUTLAWS challenged VISIONS (84-26780) (22-20-
0,83) of INNERVISIONS. COPYCAT was overpowered by VISIONS in a 1 minute mismatched
Challenge duel.
GRIZZ GRIMHULT (19-5083) (23-13-1,195) of BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE fought G W BUSH (59-
2764) (45-47-2,164) of TALL TALES. GRIZZ GRIMHULT devastated G W BUSH in a 1 minute
one-sided fight. Grimhult is the top Striker.
HUNTSMAN (7-5837) (69-52-1,191) of SENTINELS fought UNCLE FESTER (59-2768) (49-
43-1,188) of TALL TALES. HUNTSMAN demolished UNCLE FESTER in an action packed 1
minute mismatched competition. Huntsman is the top Slasher, and I'd like to thank him
again for his column last turn.
BALDASSARE (7-6003) (54-52-0,205) of SENTINELS fought TAMMY FAYE (39-3520) (42-
87-0,170) of WITLESS WONDERS. BALDASSARE defeated TAMMY FAYE in a 1 minute struggle.
Baldy is the top Parry-Strike.
HAGAR BLUETOOTH (10-5850) (54-43-1,196) of VIKINGS fought ORPHAN (72-5463) (28-
38-2,161) of X-POSSE. HAGAR BLUETOOTH beat ORPHAN in a crowd pleasing 1 minute brawl.
Hagar is top Wall of Steel, while Orphan is top Basher.
KING MIDAS (59-2770) (43-43-1,170) of TALL TALES fought SWEET REVENGE (8-5378)
(24-6-0,116) of PEASANT REBELLION. KING MIDAS was narrowly defeated by SWEET REVENGE
in a 2 minute gruesome melee.
HOPALONG CASSIDY (72-7839) (28-24-0,118) of COWBOY CROONERS fought LITTLE BOU
(21-7929) (32-22-0,148) of NOMADIC TRIBE. HOPALONG CASSIDY won victory over LITTLE
BOU in an action packed 3 minute duel. Hoppy is top Parry-Lunge and he was also voted
this turn's favorite.
MAULT LIQUOR (22-6728) (24-13-1,143) of MAULS LOCAL 457 fought LUSTY LISA (28-
5412) (25-27-2,138) of TEAM KASSEL TAP. MAULT LIQUOR was overpowered by LUSTY LISA in
a popular 1 minute uneven duel.
JINX (47-7951) (24-22-1,95) of TEAM TOONS fought JOHNNY APPLESEED (59-2767) (29-
63-0,51) of TALL TALES. JINX savagely defeated JOHNNY APPLESEED in an action packed 2
minute gory match. Despite losing, Appleseed is the top TP.
KNOS THE AXE (74-4394) (18-3-0,92) of BATTLEAXE STAMPEDE fought PEPPER (47-8958)
(13-6-0,50) of STAR PRAIRIE. KNOS THE AXE slew PEPPER in a exciting 1 minute match.
A death! I hate when that happens. Looks like it was an accident though.
GENE AUTRY (72-7838) (20-32-3,40) of COWBOY CROONERS fought UNEMPLOYED PERSON
(106-5) (0-0-0,70) of . GENE AUTRY was devastated by UNEMPLOYED PERSON in a 1 minute
mismatched conflict.
CABO WABO (51-5583) (17-12-2,60) of VAN DUEL fought DROP TOP BM (32-6283) (15-7-
1,72) of B.I.G.. CABO WABO devastated DROP TOP BM in a 1 minute mismatched bout.
Hmm, Drop Top was this turn's least favorite gladiator. Could it be the name?
So that's all I can think of to tell you. You all practice hard, get your
friends and teammates to join in, and we'll meet again in two weeks.

PAYMENTS BY CHECK AND MONEY ORDER -- CHANGE
Please note that because of new bank regulations, we can no longer accept any check or
money order drawn off a non-US bank, even if it is in US Funds. We were just informed
by our bank that the fee to process these checks is $40, which is crazy high!
Many apologies to our foreign players, but you will need to either get a check from a
US bank (Chase, Citigroup, etc.) or pay via credit card.
Armsilbar liked being Master of the Stronghold Academy, all except for one part.
He had to talk to Sheila Greywand at least once a week, usually oftener. She was
getting more erratic. More chaotic. That would be the effect of the Grey Wand. It
was a powerful chaotic artifact, and she kept it with her always. She had turned his
predecessor into a frog--or 164 frogs--and then summoned all the members of the
Academy to a frog-leg dinner. That had been, ah, bad. Yes, very bad.
But here he was entering her chambers. With, well, it couldn't be called GOOD
news. And the look she turned on him--she was in an orcish mood today, all scowling
black brows and bared fangs--that made him nervous. But some things had to be done.
He cleared his throat, which seemed to have a frog in it, and said, "It's about the
next tourney prize, Lady. I know it's more than two months away, but this isn't too
soon to start thinking of some new, exciting prize--"
"I have no intention of thinking about 'new, exciting prizes'," she snapped. Or
was that a snarl? "These managers are getting above themselves. They act like I
created the arena system for their amusement! There will be one standard prize for
all the tourneys. Just one."
He had a horrible vision of all the managers walking out in a mass. Perhaps it
wouldn't be that bad, but it wouldn't be good. And if he said the wrong thing, well,
the next frog-leg dinner might be him. "Er, ah, perhaps a specific prize for each
tourney--a spring prize, a summer prize, and so on? The managers expect--"
She exploded. A literal explosion, the force of the blast blew his hair off.
She said several things in an obsolete dialect of orcish. He stepped backward, then
again. The blast had blown the door open behind him. If he could make it out before
something else happened--
"Ribbit! Ribbit!"
