                        Reflections by the The Gate Commander

     Another triumph for the annals of Caesar greatness and glory!  It has been a long 
time, my esteemed colleagues, since Tetotaler has seized the Title.  I fondly remember 
his days in Primus and the legendary bouts which he fought in many a Title match.  I 
recall writing many a column back then and I dearly miss having the opportunity to 
share with you the greatness which is Caesar.  I would have left Tee in the Gate, but 
I decided to come forth and oust Furious Impaler from the number one spot.  I could no 
longer bear seeing the Title in the hands of Scragglepuss.  That is almost as 
unbearable as seeing Neon with the Title.
     My predictions for the Tourney are as follows;

TC:  Vengeance
RUNNER-UP:  Falstaff
SEMI FINALISTS:  Teetotaler, Furious Impaler
QUARTER FINALISTS:  Tagan, Delbaeth, Executioner, Psycho Scientist

     As much as I would enjoy seeing all of my friends and fellow managers again in 
person, I will be unable to attend.  However, my long time friend and fellow 
connoisseur of fine wines and premium cigars, the Dark One, will proxy Tee in my 
stead.  He and Mad Max will be there with their vast hordes of warriors.  I would be 
there to, but I am now so large that I cannot get out of my apartment.
     Also, while I have this column at my disposal, I would like to take this time to 
announce the return of Caesar to Basic DM!  My new team, Caesar's Thugs, will be 
making its debut in the Aradi arena.  As usual, my offerings of help, guidance and 
assistance will remain open to any new or fledgling managers that I may encounter 
there.  They will have the chance to tap into one of the ancient sources of 
Duelmaster's knowledge.  I look forward to having a positive impact on that arena.  
Managers of Aradi, you have been blessed with the good fortune of having been chosen 
for what I like to refer to as, "The Caesar Experience."  I am eager to return to 
basic after such a long absence.
     Goldilocks, congratulations on your recent victories in the Gate!  Do not listen 
to the Neon one.  We all know that you are the greatest warrior in the history of 
Talcama.  Her oldest active running warrior and a longtime Lord Protector.  Keep up 
the good work.  Tee will rejoin you shortly.  But first, he is going to have a little 
fun fighting it out with the top dogs here in the regular arena.  This turn he will be 
challenging two members of the Carapace crew.
     That is all for this week.  I hope to be back next turn, but one never knows....  
In closing, I would like to quote an ancient Japanese proverb:  "The reputation of a 
thousand years may be determined by the conduct of one hour."

     I remain, Caesar, the Greatest Manager in Duelmaster's History

                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     Greetings, Warriors of THE KAIKWOK GATEWAY.  Allow this humble servant 
Novgorodny Vir to give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport.  
SACRED VOW had cause to celebrate, after SCAR got 24 points by beating DONE UNTO 
OTHERS.  A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after 
losing 32 points to SCAR.  (Discrete enough, DONE UNTO OTHERS?) Well, Duelmaster 
TEETOTALER TV challenged HACK AND SLASH's TAWNY.  Is a 208-90-59 good enough?  
TEETOTALER successfully staved off a grab for the roses by TAWNY of HACK AND SLASH.  
Does THE KAIKWOK GATEWAY have no one talented enough to dethrone him?  Word has it 
one team in THE KAIKWOK GATEWAY is taking speech lessons to try to bore their 
opponent to death.  I'll bet it works.   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?  Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so 
did the "warriors" in THE KAIKWOK GATEWAY avoid THOSE WHO RULE.  As a woman of good 
breeding scorns the "warriors" of ROMAN HEROES, so did that sorry team shy from THOSE 
WHO RULE If challenges were horses, SAMMY could open up a fast food joint!  
Mismatched by 9 points, JUANITA lost to TREBONIUS.  Is this really worth noting?  I 
thought TREBONIUS showed great skill and promise when he overcame JUANITA.  All 
right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Ah, the duel!  The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd!  Questions are 
being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena.  A certain 
tavern in THE KAIKWOK GATEWAY would I avoid!   
     All good things must come to an end.  As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond 
my control, I must take my leave of this place.  Do not despair!  I shall return!-- 
Novgorodny Vir

Oscar -- Thanks for printing my column last turn.  You complain about the lack of 
writing, but fail to print stuff.  At least I wrote a Duelmaster's Column.  I am 
resubmitting it again this turn. -- Caesar

Alastari,

     Do you often toss and turn at night dying for a taste of blood?  Are you an 
Andorian with the urge to change that 4 KD to a 10 KD?  Do Delarquans make fun of you 
because of your inability to brutally slay your opponent?  If this sounds like you or 
someone you know we have the cure for what ails you!
     Once again those notorious villains of DOOMcorps present the Annual Killathon.  
The Third Annual Killathon will return to its home of Jhans (36) where Manager of DOA 
will be defending his Killathon Crown.  The first of twelve bloody Killathon rounds 
will begin on turn 332, August 11th, in Jhans (36).  For rules, questions, and 
further information you may do the following:  See Jhans Newsletters, visit the 
Killathon Network at DOOMcorps.com, or e-mail Killathon@DOOMcorps.com.

                                 FACE-TO-FACE XXIV

     Our next Winter Face-to-Face will be held on 21-23 January 2000, Friday through 
Sunday, at the Radisson Hotel in Phoenix, Arizona (3333 East University Drive, 
Phoenix).  Room rates are $109.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, $129 per night, 3-4 
occupancy, and $189 for suites.  The rooms are blocked, so you can call to reserve 
your room (tell them you're with the Reality Simulations convention).  Their phone 
number is 800-333-3333.  Our room block will be released in late December, so please 
reserve your room as soon as possible.
     There is a free shuttle to the airport, as well as free parking.  The hotel is 
located in the airport area.  There is a fitness center, sauna, whirlpool, and heated 
pool (we'll work on finding a place to play volleyball for Sandy) as well as a bar and 
restaurant inside the hotel.  Look for transportation info in the tournament 
information sheet.
     The tournament information sheet/strategy sheet should be out sometime in late 
November/early December. 
     If you haven't been to a Face-to-Face before, you're overdue.  If you have, 
you'll be back.  Don't miss this one, it'll be a blast!  See you there!
