                        Reflections by the The Gate Commander

Meanwhile, on turn 229 in the Arvat Arena (02/07/95), Caesar and his troops continued 
their long running dominance of the arena at 422-353-49...

     The coolie strained every aching muscle to hold his balance.  His situation was 
precarious as he attempted to carry the heavy load of stone.  The thick leather pack 
grew heavier upon his back as he made his way up the long wooden ramp.
     He was just one of several hundred coolies earning a day's pay as labor in the 
construction of the massive new Temple of Caesar.  The stone building was still in the 
early stages of development with only six stories having been completed.
     The coolie swayed drunkenly on the ramp, bringing the slow moving procession to a 
virtual halt.  He was an old coolie, aged beyond his years by decades of hard labor.  
The others in line watched intently as the coolie attempted to shift the load and 
regain his poise.  Some in the line grumbled at the delay, worried that a foreman 
might sight the holdup and dock their wages.  With an extremely strenuous effort, the 
collie managed to adjust himself and regain his position.  Pleased with himself at 
last and to the relief of the others in line, the coolie trudged onward.
     The grim line of sweating and exhausted coolies continued to climb upward.  The 
mid-afternoon sun burned brightly over Arvat, the heat and humidity of the day further 
hampering progress.  The old coolie was one of many fatigued laborers working under 
the employ of Caesar in this tremendous enterprise.  Suddenly, he swayed wearily 
toward the edge of the ramp, bringing the column to a standstill.  He cried out in 
sheer agony as he attempted to regain his footing, but was unable to balance the load.  
Slowly, the leather straps dug furrows in his knotted shoulders until the pain became 
unbearable.  His efforts were futile as he teetered on the brink...
     Every coolie in line froze and stared and the inevitable.  The coolie fought 
briefly to pull away from the edge and lose his pack, but the weight was too much for 
his old body to withstand.  He let out a horrid scream as the pack bore him over the 
edge.
     The load was heavy, the fall five stories.  His scream, the thirteenth that day, 
echoed throughout the construction site.  The grim column of sweating and exhausted 
coolies continued to climb upward, eager for the day's end and their hard won pay.

                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     Hello, Gateway gladiators.  Oscar here, reporting on this round in the Kaikwok 
Gateway.
     Teetotaler, our reigning Captain of the Gate, patrolled this round.  And he got 
offed by a Shadow Being, so he's no longer our Captain.  Bummer, Tee.  Vengeance 
topped the scales in rankings and has inherited the Captain's seat.  Will you allow 
challenges, Vengeance?
     Four warriors patrolled, including Tee.  Vengeance slew a Takktirron, Donny a 
Jaguar Warrior, and Sgt Slaughter slew a Katirrark.  Teetotaler was killed by a Shadow 
Being.  
     Thundr + Litening was the most avoided, and Roman Heroes was back doing the most 
avoiding.  Finger Puppet from Eastern Horde was the most challenged warrior; The 
Dragon of Savage TV got his challenge through and pummelled Finger Puppet.
     Biggest upsets:  Kansas (#215) fought Silvermoon (#169) and demolished him.  
Gabriel (#201) fought Silverflash (#218) and was bested.  Some Stroke (#228) fought 
Stepping Stones (#186) and savagely defeated him.  Miron (#145) fought Warlock (#232) 
and lost.  Rogue (#168) fought Sir Mount (#239) and lost.  Early To Wise (#195) fought 
Full Kettle Helm (#253) and was viciously subdued.  Superior Skull (#193) was savagely 
defeated by Chili Con Carnage (#254).  G.I. Joe (#89) lost to Liar (#122).  Sebastian 
(#88) slimly lost to Arious Al'vere (#149).  Oedi (#90) overpowered Honey Hanna (#63).  
Malador (#69) was vanquished by Kate (#96) (Malador's challenge).  Executioner (#20) 
was viciously subdued by Whiplash (#41), falling even further!  Ferndok (#15) lost to 
Leonardo (#44).  Goldilocks (#49) viciously subdued Patience (#35).  Ronin (#33) lost 
to Thanatos (#52).  Dangerous (#19) was defeated by Rex Walters (#58).  
     In the top eleven, Rage (#5) fought Hawk (#9) and barely won.  Cheshire Cat (#4) 
fought Psycho Scientist (#10) and was devastated, proving that Psycho can win at least 
some of the time.  Maimed (#21) was defeated by Sly (#6) (Maimed's challenge).  
Carapace was still out, so Tawny (#3), Ta'ra (#7), 3066 (#8), and Delbaeth (#11) 
didn't fight.  Vengeance (#2) and Teetotaler (#1) fought gate monsters.  Donatello, 
Sly, and Sgt. Slaughter have jumped back into the top ten.     
     The three top teams are still Angels of Pain (the Dark One), Neon's crew, Doc 
Steele's crew.  No changes there.  
     That's all I have this time.  Until next time, I remain,

Hmmmm... Tawny and Cheshire Cat.  Why can't a Blademaster hit a stinking aimed blow?  
If I can hit Vengeance, I shouldn't have much problem with these also-rans.  Just what 
the hell is going on here anyway? -- Psycho Scientist, a humbled TC

Teetotaler -- I hope you're man enough to fight real warriors when you're on the 
throne.  Give those that want it a chance to sit on the Captain's Chair, or else fight 
in the gate and highlight what is broken about this arena ranking system of ours. -- 
Psycho Scientist, Sly, et al.

The Black Knight -- Avoid this! -- Kiri
P.S.  Don't waste your challenge trying to get through to Cleatus.  You're not the 
only one with avoids.

Plunder -- I'm not quite maxed.  I just got my third Archmaster, and I've got a few 
skills to go yet.  I hope to get a TV just about the time yours runs out so I can 
harrass you into retirement. -- Kiri

Hey, Caesar is back!  Howdy, old friend!  I'm glad you weighed in on the mercenary 
subject.  You run one of the highest profile mercenaries ever to exist, so your 
opinion counts (but not as much as mine, of course ;-)  ). -- Neon Necromancer

Caesar -- Okay, the other side of the coin:
1)  Of the 13 active warriors I have here, only two were purchased (Gypsy Moth and The 
Couatl).  Sly and Kiri were given by friends, and the rest are mine, all mine.  (I 
sold Ronin shortly after acquiring him.)  These four warriors are the only warriors I 
have ever run, anywhere, that did not start their careers in my stable.  (Ronin ran 
for two or three turns under me, so I'm not really counting that.)
2)  I am not sure why you wanted to run Teetotaler since you've never blessed us with 
that insight.  My reasons for running Gypsy and Couatl are two-fold.  First, when Doc 
LeGrand was auctioning them off, I really, really did not want them to end up in the 
hands of newbie managers, i.e., managers that didn't already have an established 
Gateway presence.  So, I bid to keep them out of the hands of the "ignorant".  Second, 
I wanted Gypsy as a way of making up for my own terrible luck in Duelmasters.  It 
seems like the first 12 years I played this game, every good warrior I had ended up 
dead.  Those that graduated were very mediocre.  Even now, it's a sad testament to the 
quality of my stable that my best warrior in Gateway is +3 Atk, +1 Def (Psycho).  [I 
have a +3/+3 warrior here, but she's a slasher with lousy favorites.]  Buying Gypsy 
was a way of making up for that terrible luck, even if she only provides TVs for a 
little while.
3)  Teetotaler is NOT retired, even semi.  He takes up a space in the top eleven, and, 
more importantly, he takes up a TV at tourney time.  Both of those are highly coveted 
by newer warriors.  The only way he could be considered retired is if he didn't fight 
in tourneys and he wasn't listed in the newsletter.  As a compromise, we have 
suggested to Oscar that the gate patrollers be listed in a separate part of the 
newsletter (which already happens because they appear in the dead listings on one side 
or the other).  When they deign to fight mere immortals, they would again be listed 
with everyone else.  Until the day he isn't a roadblock to other warriors, he is NOT 
retired.  (And neither is Gypsy Moth, Sly, or any of the other mercenaries.)
4)  Teetotaler is the epitome of whoredom.  Your main claim to fame in the games best, 
most visible arena is running someone else's warrior.  At least my best guy is my own 
creation.  With Teetotaler, you have enjoyed success at the highest level that you 
never earned on your own.  You were handed a ready-made TV, and in the eight years 
since you haven't been able to follow it up with one of your own.  That's exactly what 
I was trying to prevent when I bought Gypsy Moth.
5)  You are correct about Teetotaler's TV's.  Sorry I missed him when looking through 
the newsletters.  However, don't expect much credit for his TV's.  Teetotaler was a TV 
caliber warrior when you inherited him.  All you've done is pump money into his 
development to keep him there.  It's not like you had to figure out anything about 
him.  It was handed to you on a silver platter by a player that had illegal access to 
inside information.
6)  I am in favor of your suggestion to scrap the current ranking system.  It's too 
artificial when you can win repeatedly and not move up the rankings.  It's one thing 
for Sly to TV challenge and beat Ta'ra 8 times in a row (since they're both in the top 
ten and you can't go up from there), and entirely another for Plunder to TV challenge 
and beat Nibble 8 times in a row (not that he has, but he could).  Winning should move 
you up, even if only infinitesimally for beating the lowest ranked guy.  I do think, 
however, that the gate wanderings should still be listed separately because those 
warriors are choosing to remove themselves from competition with other warriors, even 
if only for one turn.
7)  Thanks for a lengthy and insightful personal ad.  Hopefully it will spark some 
genuine discussion about the issues confronting our beloved Gateway and not just 
another spat of name-calling. -- Neon Necromancer

Skeeve -- Wow, that was quite a workout!  But, when you tangle with the open-handed 
king, you're going to get beat up.  I just hope the skill learns are reversed next 
time. -- Grandpa Cleatus

Two Deer -- Okay, I'm ready now.  What?  It's over already?  But I don't remember a 
thing.  We'll just have to do it again so you can refresh my memory. -- Lord 
Lightspeed

Uncle Charlie -- Welcome to Gateway.  I think you'll enjoy it here. -- Doc Steele

Sentinel -- I am glad to hear Neon and I not alone in enjoying Gateway.  As for your 
warrior rankings I actually took all mine off maintenance figuring that I would rather 
miss a turn then run blind and end up ranked all over the map.  Good luck 
straightening things out. -- Doc Steele

Dr. Surfer -- I had to go through all my fights from last turn to figure out what you 
were referring to in your last ad about my challenges.  Despite what that looked like 
those were random challenges I didn't even pay attention to the team names.  I figure 
all my newbies except Skeeve will lose for some time on a consistent basis.  So don't 
go getting all excited.  I have warriors with 300+ skills in the bottom bracket.  If I 
wanted to go after easy wins against your newbies I could.  Don't tempt your fate. -- 
Doc Steele

Neon -- Two Aimed Blows and two loses in a row.  Do I see a possible chink in Psycho's 
armor? -- Doc Steele

Lord Lightspeed -- My first Gateway victory!  Come get some more. -- Two Deer

Grandpa Cleatus -- You have an iron jaw I'll give you that.  You didn't even lay a 
finger on me until I was staggering with exhaustion.  As long as you teach me that 
well you may consider school in session old timer.  That is 1-0 to you. -- Skeeve

Sultan -- Welcome to Gateway!  To think you had 5 of 7 challenged and none from me.  
You are popular.  My grace period if you are interested will end when the next batch 
of newbies arrive.  Unless of course you initiate the action.  I hope Gateway lives up 
to your expectations.  The grace period does not include my newbies of course but 
since mine are form Darkholm and yours are from Primus I am looking for other ex-
Eligibles thank you very much. -- Doc Steele

Caesar -- I hope you consider running Tee in the arena since he backed into the 
Throne.  Congratulations on that, by the way. -- Doc Steele

PUG -- I didn't know if you wanted a rematch for Big Stoop against Immolation but I 
challenged anyway.  If you don't want to run a series let me know. -- Doc Steele

Lazar Wolf -- How I ended up a Lieutenant of the Gate I'll never know.  But I thought 
since I can beat exactly no one in this bracket you might as well benefit from my 
loses.  Shall we dance? -- Skylas Takarin

Neon Necromancer -- There seems to have been a typo in last turn's ad.  The ad should 
have read:  You are incorrect in stating that there were only 4 warriors who have TV'd 
in the past three tournament.  Teetotaler has TV'd in the past six consecutive Gateway 
tourneys having gone 13-3, 14-3, 11-3, 8-3, 12-3 and 9-3 respectively.  His overall 
tourney record under my watch has been 308-88-2 with TV's in 26 of 27 total 
tournaments.  His perfect TV record having been blemished seven tourneys ago when he 
went 6- 3-0. -- Caesar

Psycho -- Going soft?  Or have we discovered your weakness?  Better work on the 
endurance!

All -- As an FYI -- Donotello is still run by his original manager (Mirage); he does 
not pay much attention but he is still around.

                                    THE HAMMER 400

     The Fiercest & Best Free Blades Arena in Alastari [DM 33] is proud to host The
Hammer 400 which is sponsored by Maccabaeus The Hammer, Milchamah & NIPS [Niatoli 
Island Print Shop].  The Hammer 400 begins with Turn 376 [Duedate: October 11th, 
2000] and ends on Turn 400 [you do the math!].  Registration for The Hammer 400 is 
currently underway with 6 Teams Registered as of Turn 368 in DM 33.

1. Milchamah [Maccabaeus The Hammer]      4. Apachu Del Dineh [Kokopelli]

     In the tradition of The Madness in DM 33 [a contest which ends on Turn 375] The 
Hammer 400 is being expanded to 33 Categories.  Category Leaders will be printed each 
cycle in the NIPS Niatoli Notebook in the DM 33 Newsletter as time & space allow.
     The Hammer 400 will once again feature the FID Award [First Initiate Duelmaster] 
where all Registered Team Initiate Warriors from Turn 376 & Later compete in a race 
to the DM 33 Duelmaster's Throne.  The Hammer 400 will also feature The Highest 
Ranked [Fighting Style] where you must declare your Warrior's Name & Fighting Style 
in the DM 33 Personal Ads on or before your Warrior's first DM 33 Basic Arena Battle.  
[You may want to enter that Warrior in the October Rookie Tourney so declare the 
Warrior Name & Fighting Style in the DM 33 Newsletter prior to the Tourney & then 
enter DM 33 for your first Basic Arena Fight after the October Rookie Mail Tourney!]
     A complete list of the 33 Categories will be posted in NIPS Niatoli Notebook as 
well as in The Hammer 400 Program Guide [which features Registered Teams!]  Deadline 
for inclusion in The Hammer 400 Program Guide is Monday [August 28th, 2000] which 
features the following:  1. Your Name, 2. Snail Mail Address, 3. Your Managerial 
Alias, 4. Your Team Name, 5. A Managerial Tip [for the Program Guide], 6. Team Bio 
[for the Program Guide]
     Please type info & Snail Mail to
     Daryl P Holloman
     PO Box 848
     Okmulgee, OK  74447-0848
     I must receive this information no later than Monday [August 28th, 200] & I will 
print the Official Registration in the Turn 374 DM 33 Newsletter [Duedate: September 
13th, 2000] to let everyone know which Teams will be receiving The Hammer 400 Program 
Guide!  All officially Registered Teams will receive a copy of The Hammer 400 Program 
Guide featuring Managerial Tips from every Registered Team's Manager [which is well 
worth the time & effort of registering!]  After The Hammer 400 Program Guide Deadline 
a Team will only be allowed into the competition by writing a Team Spotlight in DM 33 
that includes Team Name, Managerial Alias, Team Bio & a Managerial Tip that every DM 
33 Team will read in the DM 33 Newsletter.  Later Registration Teams will also have 
to contact me with their Names & Snail Mail Addresses to complete their Registration.  
Later Registrations Will Not Receive A Program Guide!
     DISQUALIFICATION NOTICE:
     Should a Team go Inactive & not be listed for 5 Consecutive Turns in the DM 33 
Newsletter that Team will be Removed from The Hammer 400 & Forfeit any Category

Guide including:

          ATTENTION:  ALL MANAGERS WHO ARE ATTENDING THE SUMMER FACE-TO-FACE

If you plan to attend the Summer Face-to-Face in Baltimore, please let Customer 
Service know.  We will hold your turns for the few days preceding the F-t-F, starting 
with anything that would mail out on the previous Sunday.  (So games that are due on 
Thursday the 20th (which would mail on Friday) would probably be mailed out to you, 
but those games due on the 21st and thereafter would be held and delivered to you at 
the tournament.  This way, you won't have to worry about not receiving a critical turn 
before you depart for Phoenix, and you also don't have to worry about whether you can 
get a reprint before the first turn of the tournament is due.  

See you there!
