                       Reflections by the Champion of the Horn

Hello again!

Wow, I didn't think I'd get this honor again.  I guess I'm just holding the place for 
Spawn's Blue Beer or Out for a Duck, both of whom are more impressive fighters than I 
am.  I've always felt that being matched against either of them is, well, a bad sign.

Good luck to anyone taking part in the Turf War.

                                          -- Hummingbird

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  Practice pays for SHOPPING CART, who pummelled 
BROKEN TOE, to pocket 59 points.  TEM OF SMALLCLIFF certainly had a baffled 
expression on his face, after losing to RINGIL and losing 18 points in the process!  
HUMMINGBIRD successfully staved off a grab for the roses by OUT FOR A DUCK of BAD 
SIGNS.  Does STORM ROCK have no one talented enough to dethrone her?  Word has it one 
team in STORM ROCK is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death.  
I'll bet it works.   
     So much to report, so little time!  Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the 
mountaintops, so stand the warriors of HOUSE JHEREG, alone and unchallenged.  The 
warriors of HOUSE JHEREG found their efforts at combat frustrated as BAD SIGNS 
apparently had more important things to do than fight.   
     Ah, the duel!  The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd!  Oh hard!  that 
to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!   
     Leave me now, you base fools!  Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat!  
Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for STORM ROCK?  On that 
giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

She-Puppy -- I wish I still had all those spotlights, as well. I had a lot of family 
losses going on during my time away from Duelmasters. Lots of depression and I never 
thought I'd be back here. So one day cleaning the house, I threw all my DM stuff away 
that had accumulated over the years. The pack rat in me finally cleaned up only to 
regret it a few years later. Oh well. LOL -- Boss Rat

Billy Blanks -- I really enjoyed our fight, even after you broke my favorite weapon. 
Well, not really my favorite; it was arena armory junk of course. -- Scharv

Dreamweaver -- For some reason, your advice to leave my teddy bear behind struck home 
for me. In the future, Fuzzy Wuzzy will be staying in the guildhouse. -- Adabemis 
Eldantabem

Night Stalker -- Lucky hit.  And it's all regrown now. -- Khefras

Tem of Smallcliff -- Good try. -- Hummingbird

Tax Penalty -- Did you mean to use that weapon? -- Moose

Headache -- Yipes! -- Javelino

Ringil -- That was a good fight.  Wasn't it?  I'm still a little confused. -- Buck

Yorke -- Nice learns.  Why didn't you teach me anything? -- Broken Toe
