                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     Hello, Gateway.
     
     What's this Novgorodny Vir stuff?  How'd he get here?  Idiot, he must've taken a 
wrong turn somewhere.  And he thinks he's a god.  Harumph.  It's not as if I had any 
true pearls of wisdom for you last fortnight, but it's just irritating when I work so 
hard on my small masterpiece and *poof!* it vanishes.
     Pearls...  I can give you a short synopsis so you don't miss too much.  Poor 
Reggie Jackson was butchered by a Shadowed Demon.  Brave soul, nice try.  
     And Moriarty, Polo, and Barium, I apologize for not managing to answer you last 
time.  I guess I failed to report to you that the roc broke his wing landing after the 
Great Key Rescue.  It is mostly healed now--seems that the normal healing potions 
don't work very quickly on a bird-beast that size.  It'll be a while before he can fly 
with any extra weight.  Also, I should've everybody this before, but everybody should 
stay away from his pen for a while yet.  He's really ornery lately.  Anyway, Moriarty, 
thank you for volunteering your warriors.  I will keep your words in mind when the Roc 
recovers. 
     
     Okay, back to the present...

     I'm glad to see that you guys wasted another three monsters this turn.  Psycho 
Scientist managed to kill one of those nasty Invisibles, Vengeance killed a Feathered 
Serpent, and Sly killed Yil, whatever that is.  Please be sure to pass your 
information to Skek so he can add it to his notes.  Good job, guys!
     For the title fight, Rage challenged Donatello.  Amazingly, he managed to hold on 
for two minutes, but the mighty Donatello ended up whumping him.  No big surprise 
there.  All hail the mighty Donatello, still Captain of the Gate!
     In other news, Nameless Took took out Dangerous.  I mean, he really took him out.  
Like deader than a doornail, took him out.  Of course, Skek resurrected Dangerous 
afterwards.  Last I saw him, Dangerous was still complaining that his feet were 
tingling.  Seriously though, I'd certainly feel safer if Nameless Took killed 
monsters, not one of us--and I don't think I'm the only one.
     The bashers continue to do poorly and the aimed blows and parry lunges continue 
to do well.  The parry strikes, all five of them, outdid themselves this turn, with an 
undefeated record.  Way to go! 
     Don't forget we have a tournament coming up.  With the key returned (thanks 
again, Executioner, Vengeance, and Teetotaler!) (and I suppose we should also thank 
the roc!), those of you who plan to attend will travel through the gate to the 
tournament grounds.  For those of you who aren't sure about your chances in the 
tournament, remember this is an excellent chance for you to see family and friends in 
person.  Take advantage of this opportunity.
     Until next time,

                                          -- Oscar

Papa Bear -- If you can't handle my underdeveloped warriors now without Uncle Guardian 
what are you going to do when my guys start to develop?  Here's a hint.  Learn how to 
use strategy and good challenging to fight your own battles. -- Doc Steele

The Bear -- I don't know why Papa Bear is dragging this feud silliness beyond the 
Gate.  But I assure you we don't have time for it here.  We have a mission here to 
defend Ghea in case Papa Bear is too senile to remember.  So while we may have to act 
out our manager's tempers on the sands remember we have a job to do together off them. 
-- Tarad

Polo -- Very well then.  You made a brave choice.  I'll see you around the keep. -- 
Tarad

Barium -- I hope you enjoyed your vacation.  Now let's get to work. -- Tarad

Doc Steele -- You sneaky geek... you craven slime ball... You have the nerve to talk 
about a no-avoid pact and then down challenge my little bear when you have more than 
twice his fights!  No one will see you as the heroic white knight of Duelmasters any 
longer.  You're just another pud with no class and no earned right to talk with the 
greats as if you were on par with them.  Guardian, Scragg and I will shun you from now 
on! -- Papa Bear

Donny -- So, how's the family? I know you're out there, but do you read the 
newsletters? You probably read our last fight ... had you worried didn't I. That was a 
miraculous recovery you had in minute three. It won't be long, that I take the crown 
from you. -- Rage

Technogeek -- Time out from our skirmishes.  I've got to punish Tarad, Gumby, Crystal 
Dove, Ryxle Rulg and Karraway.  In fact, if it amuses you, you can join me. -- Papa 
Bear

Papa Bear -- Ah, my most favored victim!  And SO many of your scrubs in range!  How... 
convenient.  BTW, what the hell is Butkus?  Let's look... -- Hoffa, oldest AND baldest 
of the Legion 7

Polo -- You might want to re-consider retirement. -- Gumby the helpful

                          'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE TOURNEY...

'Twas the night before Tourney, And all through the place
Many managers were drinking, Getting smashed at the Face;
The staff were all busy, The computers were humming,
Rollups were bought, for the deadline was coming;
 
Soon managers were nestled, all smug at their tables,
With visions of TC's coming from their stables;
And NAIMT doing massages, while A-Sop caused trouble,
An hour before deadline, the workload just doubled,
 
When by the computers, there arose such a clatter,
All eyes turned to them, to see what was the matter.
Sue glaring at the screen, Lee's fingers just flew,
Oh, the computer was down, so what else was new?
 
The lights in the room were too bright, someone said,
Nah, it's just the reflection from off Hoffa's head,
Then, what to our wondering eyes should appear,
But Soultaker and Sentinel, once again here this year, 

Yes, we heard "No more Faces!", We hear this each time,
But we know it's a farce, like this parody's rhyme.
More rollups are bought, more warriors are made,
Names are thought up, and carefully weighed;

"How 'bout FREE WILLY? Or RODMAN? Or PUSSY? Or KNOCKERS? 
Or SHEIK T'WEEZEL? Or BALLSY? Or TAKE OFF THEM DOCKERS!?
Not a chance say the censors! Nice try, bub, but no!
Now it's HAPPY, and BARNEY, and WE LOVE YOU SO! 

The managers groan, but undaunted keep trying,
The censors all laugh, and just are not buying,
The RUGS altars are burning, offerings are gifted,
With hopes that the rollup curses soon will be lifted.

And then, in a twinkling, we hear down the hall,
A Lunat!k roar and Fusion chased with a maul.
You see, he'd heard about Fusion's campaign for the Prez,
Now it's "Off with his Head!", so Lunat!k says. 

At the Dark Circle table, 6'7" down in height,
With their arrogant statures, their great show of might.
Yet amidst all the notebooks, are nerf toys and giraffe,
Such silliness there, NAIMT can't help but laugh. 

At Aradi's table -- how they giggle, at the cartoons and stories 
Of the FONZ done by Nuln, in his infinite glories!
His droll little mouth was drawn up like a ring,
And Barb drew his beard as straggly as string; 

The new guys at Duelmasters, some call them a rookie,
Making names for themselves like Jessie and Bookie;
The regulars are here, The Boss, PUG, and TUM
Carapace, Sensei, and lots more to come
 
Doc Steele and his legends, even now in the making,
If there weren't many witnesses, I'd think he was faking.
The paperball fight, and the chaos ensues,
Clean it up, says Lee, or your heads you will lose!

The independents and alliances, speaking more than a word,
NAIMT's resounding giggles can also be heard;
But the hour before deadline is soon at a close, 
And giving a nod, on a chair Sandy rose; 

Okay guys, she says, no more inputs to be made,
And away goes some managers for a Bourbon Street raid.
But ere I end this bad poem, I just want to say,
"GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL, AND TO ALL A GOOD DAY!"

****Hey, what do you expect for a quickie?... <grin>
