                        Reflections by the The Gate Commander

Gateway managers, it is I, Gergin Frothingslosh, recently known as Rhialto, and for 
this turn at least I command your respect and attention.  Stormbringer's effort under 
my tutelage has earned us the highest seat in all the realms of Alastari and from this 
place we greet you.  May your aspirations carry you one day to this lofty height where 
you can take your place among the best of the best.

First let me describe the winning duel to you.  Under the strength of a previous 
victory against Stormbringer, Crazy-Horse chose to surprise everyone with a last 
minute change in his challenge roster and give the old man a rematch.  (I can only 
speculate if this was the cause of the heated words between Ivy and Doc Steele at the 
beginning of the face-to-face.)  As the titans faced each other someone hit the 
lightning switch to give the fans a bit of drama to start to the duel and this time 
Stormy struck first.  It was Crazy-Horse who hit first however, riposting Storm's 
first attack and landing with his reply to give one of those big damage scimitar 
crits.  With an involuntary wince Stormy kept going trading blows with his adversary 
until the middle of the first minute when he finally found the opening he'd been 
seeking.  He landed his attack and brought Crazy to the ground and proceeded to pin 
him there.  Crazy took the punishment all the way into the second minute but never got 
back up.  And that, my fellow managers, is all she wrote.

I'd like to thank Doc Steele for giving me the shot and I'd like to thank him even 
more for being kind enough to loose so I can hold forth to you all here and now.  As a 
special treat I'd like to share a little real world episode with him:  yesterday my 
friend was the substitute instructor for the Aikido class I set up at my college, 
California Lutheran University.  We've both been studying the art for a long time and 
towards the end of class, after we had done our job of instructing beginners, we 
proceeded to demonstrate a few techniques which my buddy described as a "Thunder and 
Lightning" show.  This is important to do every now and then in a martial arts class 
because it gives the students something to look forward to as well as lend some 
credibility to the class itself.  It involved full power attacks on my part answered 
by the perfectly timed throws of my 6'2" partner, Casey, who tossed me around like I 
was on wires.  Needless to say Casey has only the vaguest idea of this strange game I 
play called Duelmasters and certainly has no inkling of a DM team called Thundr + 
Litening or even what a DM team might be. Still as we talked about the demonstration 
after class I couldn't help but think, "Yeah, a thunder and lightning show, hey you 
know that's a duelmasters team?"

Well, on that note I shall leave you.  Since Stormy doesn't have a TV challenge this 
weeks match should be decided by one of the TV's in the top ten, unless they fear a 
decrepit employee warrior run by a manager Phido once described as the exemplar of the 
periphery!

Gergin "Happy Toes" Frothingslosh

P.S.  Congrats Otto X Frothingslosh!  True Champion of the Apprentices Tourney!  
That's right Ivy, we've all lost fights because we didn't get a new strat in on time 
during a crucial match at the face-to-face, and it was bad form on your part to force 
the issue on a lapse that was ultimately your responsibility.  You should thank Otto 
for not complaining as loudly as you and for graciously accepting another round of 
fighting.  It is because of him and RSI choosing customer service over fairness that 
you owe your shared place on the pedestal.  However, Otto beat your warrior twice in 
previous match-ups, you actually saw his strat and made changes in your strat 
accordingly, so if RSI wants to continue to champion customer service the least they 
could do is modify the newsletter to reflect the true champion, Nite Lens, 2-1 vs. 
Acropolis, runner-up.

                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     Here we are again, my dears.  Here is my report on this round in our fine Gateway 
arena.  
     Hello, Gateway!  Here I am again, reporting on this round in our fine arena.
     First, I want to tell you about the fight for the Captain's seat.  Crazy Horse TV 
challenged Stormbringer, and killed Stormbringer in the fight!  Ouch, that must've 
hurt!  Congratulations my dear Crazy Horse, for a most spectacular win and for earning 
the title "Captain of the Gate"!
     Stormbringer was the most challenged warrior this time.  Not surprising, since he 
was Captain last time.  
     Qubit was the most avoided team.  Eastern Horde avoided them the most.  I'm not 
sure if there's a rule about this, but I don't think you anyone should be allowed to 
avoid teams with names that start with "Q".  Do you agree?  It just seems wrong.
     Lord of Mercy of Off the Wall (#95) moved up the highest in the rankings, after a 
battle with Alcatraz of Wasteland (#32).  Other notable battles:  Li'l Pepper (#93) 
lost to The Offspring (#126).  Jennifer Bartes (#133) was defeated by Rodger Young 
(#112).  Quarrel (#118) was bested by Denise (#166).  22 Jacks (#108) was bested by

Stormbringer (#1).  Excellent!  I am so proud of you all! 
      The GC finally cleaned up the team rankings and Crip finally is not showing as 
#1.  About time, if you ask me.  Shame on them for not doing their jobs correctly!  
Doc Steele holds (#1) at 68.4% (up from 68.2%).  Well done, my dear Doc!  Sentinel was 
inactive but holds #2 at 66.9% (no changed from last time).  The Mun popped into the 
top with Inflatable Doll's excellent debut in Gateway, at 2-1 and 66.7%.  Very well 
done and welcome to Gateway!  Anarchist is still at #4 and 60.9% (down from 61.4%).  
Chief is still #5 and 60.5% (up from 60.4%).  Well done!  Excellent, all of you!  The 
rest of you should practice more.  Remember, practice makes perfect!
     Well, young people, this is the end of my report.  Don't forget to take your 
vitamins and brush your teeth before you go to bed.

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Guardian -- I don't want you to retire any warriors because of the beatings they are 
taking.  I just wanted to teach you a lesson about who's house this now.  If you want 
me to lay off of those two, just ask me nicely in the ads and I will be happy to do 
it.  I know that has got to hurt, so it will be plenty of payment for leaving them 
alone.  This turns score was 6-0 in my favor.  The overall score is Doc Steele 40, and 
Guardian 12.  I suppose that is a bit out of hand.  Why don't you just write me a 
personal ad, and offer your surrender?  I'll add you to the list with Neon of those 
that have challenged me, and have been vanquished.  Then, whenever you feel better 
prepared to redeem your honor, you may challenge me again and we'll start over at 0-0.  
I can't be any more fair than that.  All you have to do is grovel a little bit, and 
you won't have to read this tally every turn. -- Doc Steele

Carny -- Thanks.  Here is to hoping that you are right about Crazy Horse bring back 
the PL. -- Doc Steele

Stormbringer -- Congratulations!!  I know you were excited about taking the Throne.  
Well done.  Now I hope you won't be ducking me, because my ego demands a re-match.  
I'll see you soon. -- Crazy Horse

Mystic -- Thanks.  I'm sure you are just a 5-6 TC potions from changing that "who can 
beat who list."  In the meantime, I enjoy having you around as you always write 
amusing personal ads. -- Crazy Horse

Ivy -- In case you did not get my email, I wanted you to know that I am no longer 
willing to not challenge your warriors.  I have let you have at least 4 years of free 
reign with no challenges, just because you asked me to leave you alone.  That time is 
over.  If you do not wish to face my warriors on the sand, you'll have to use your 
avoids like everyone else. -- Doc Steele

Sven Thorfin -- I admire your win.  You just don't give up. -- Doc Butler

Juliet -- You had the edge all the way. -- Vicc

Doc Steele -- A major typo!  Last message was meant for you.  To repeat: "Since you 
mention training, I'm curious, what is the record for most trains

     The gladiator leaned forward and took hold of the front of Alarond's shirt, 
lifting him and shaking him slightly.  "I don't want you to tell me it's impossible," 
he growled, "I want you to tell me how to change my arena name.  Who do I have to 
bribe?"
     Alarond assumed a look of dignified reproach (difficult when his feet were 
dangling fifteen inches off the floor) and said, "We at the Gladiatorial Commission do 
not take bribes--  Ack!"
     The gladiator twisted the shirt around his fist a couple of times, choking 
Alarond to silence.  "Listen, I don't care what you want to call it.  I want a name 
change, and I want it now!"
     "You should have thought more carefully before you chose your arena name, if you 
find it so objectionable," the spy reporter said.
     "As if I could've over-ruled my manager!  If you had half an ounce of smarts, you 
wouldn't be arguing with a guy who's already put in two years in the arena as 
'Dangling Eyeball'.  A name like that, I don't take any lip, see?  And I want it 
changed.  Now."
     "Dangling Eyeball?"  Alarond blenched.  "Ah... yes, I suppose you do want a 
change, but Lady Sheila doesn't like to--"
     "I want to be called the Handsome Highwayman."
     "Too many letters.  It can't be done."
     "Okay, then, call me Jack."
     "Er, Jack, I'm afraid you don't understand.  Lady Greywand doesn't want to be 
bothered with things like name changes.  She..." Alarond's voice dropped to a 
whisper, "she has to bow to a higher authority on that.  Green Eyes!"
     "I don't care who you gotta clear it with, I want a new name," the gladiator 
snarled.  "And I'm not the only one, bub.  Make it happen."
     "Well... it will take a little time to arrange," Alarond warned.  "I'm sure we 
can't do anything until after the next tourney."
     "Just so it happens, bub."

             Maximillian's Morya Madness Contest Categories/Prize Awards

                                      by Hammer

     Hammer withdrew the parchment from within the folds of his cloak and handed it 
over to Maximillian for his much anticipated inspection.
     "WOW!" exclaimed Max, "You sure went all out to make this contest a success!"
     Hammer grinned at the excited Northern Badlands Manager and explained, "After 
four years away from Morya Arena it only seemed right to include almost every contest 
category that I have ever used in my famous Niytyole Island DM 33 Hammer Contests."
     Five years as a Duelmasters Manager had left its mark on Hammer just as much as 
Hammer had left his mark in the Arenas of Alastari.
     Hammer may not be renowned for his various Basic Arena or Tourney records, but 
his prowess as a "Promoter of Contests" was legendary amongst the ranks of those who 
had crossed swords in answer to the call of competition time and again in DM 33.
     Now it was time for those Managers who ply their trade in the Slow Arenas to 
experience "the Glory and the Grandeur" of a Hammer Contest right there in DM 28 where 
Morya Madness would rule for two plus years from Turn 228 through Turn 255.
     Meanwhile, Hammer would have to consult the Gladiatorial Commission to rediscover 
who was still registered in his old Flower Power stable and find out what Fighting 
Style and Strategy they were using four years ago when Hammer deactivated the team.
     "Sure do miss Violet," mused Hammer as he remembered his 15-2-2 reigning 
Duelmistress who was slain at the 1999 Tempe F2F.  The ONLY Triple 17 WT WL DF Rollup 
he could remember creating on an Original New Team or Replacement Rollup.
     She was a Mighty Fine Total Parry who battled her way to the DM 28 Duelmaster 
Throne running on a Maintenance Strategy!
     "Better make sure the Gladiatorial Commission assigns my team a new recruit," 
added Hammer as he withdrew an Elven Orb of Transport from the folds of his cloak.
     "And while I'm at it I may as well take advantage of that RSI Name Change O Rama 
and rename my DM 28 team Flower Hammerz."
     "After all, in the Morya Madness, every Hammer is a Flower with Power!"
     With that thought still hanging in the air, a purple flash of radiant light 
marked the space where Hammer had been musing only moments before, as the Elven Orb of 
Transport carried the Veteran Manager away to a new adventure through some such 
whatever may be Time/Space/Dimensional Portal that only the Elven Orb of Transport 
knew for sure.
     And what of Maximillian?
     He was too busy babbling about "battles yet to be" in an arena where Newbies and 
Veterans would assemble themselves in answer to the clarion call of competition for 
the upcoming Morya Madness to even notice that Hammer was no longer there!
     ***  A Helpful Hammer Hint for all those Managers with Online capabilities who 
are migrating to DM 28 for Maximillian's Morya Madness beginning May 8th 2003. Max has 
set up a yahoogroups for participants to communicate with each other during the 
contest and to also hopefully receive the DM 28 newsletter hot off the press from Sue 
[a.k.a. Ed. in the newsletters] during the course of the contest from Turns 228 
through 255:  MoryaMadness-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
     To contact Maximillian via Email just type your message into your computer and 
send to:  johnl@silk.net
     Hammer also plans to scribe some of his famous Team Spotlight creativity during 
the Morya Madness in DM 28 and has also created a new Email address for Morya Madness 
competitors to send him information for possible inclusion in Hammerz Herald which 
debuts in Morya with Hammer's return to DM 28 on Turn 225 [Due date February 13th]:  
HammerzHerald@hotmail.com
     Now turn your attention to the Morya Madness DM 28 Contest Categories and Prizes 
listed below as you decide to either 1. Activate Your Old DM 28 Stable/ 2. Transfer a 
Promising Stable from a Transfer Arena/ or 3. Ponder upon which New Team Rollup to 
send to RSI to prep in the April Mailer Tourney before the quest for Style Master 
Champions begins on Turn 228 [Due date: February 13th 2003] as an "Alastari Adventure 
of a Lifetime" begins to unfold with Maximillian's Morya Madness Hosted by Hammer:

First Initiate Duelmaster [FID]: Category Number 3
     A favorite of Hammer Contest participants, the FID is a race to see which Warrior 
ascends the Arena Duelmaster Throne from among those listed in the Initiates on the 
Opening Round or Any Round thereafter.
     This means that a warrior listed in the Challenger Initiates on the Opening Round 
may qualify for the FID race ONLY if said warrior suffers a loss that drops his/her 
recognition points into the Initiates class on any subsequent turn of play.
     The First Initiate from said listing to battle their way to the Arena Duelmasters 
Throne during the Hammer Contest is declared to be the FID winner.  Warriors need not 
declare their Fighting Style for this category as all warriors who enter the Arena and 
become listed as Initiates are automatically classified as contenders.  However, as 
the contest continues turn by turn, it becomes more difficult for an incoming Initiate 
to overtake those warriors who began fighting during the first two or three rounds of 
the contest.

Style Masters: Category Number 5
     Style Masters are warriors from any of the 10 Duelmasters Fighting Styles.
     Each Style Master contestant is to have ZERO (0) Basic Arena Fight Experience 
when entering the Arena for their FIRST Basic Arena Fight at any time on ANY TURN 
during the Hammer Contest.
     To qualify as a Style Master Contestant, the Manager of the warrior MUST DECLARE 
the Fighting Style of each warrior competing as a Style Master by submitting a P-ad 
[Personal Ad] in the newsletter where the Hammer Contest is being held, either ON or 
BEFORE the turn said warrior fights his/her FIRST Basic Arena Fight any time during 
the course of the Hammer Contest.  [Consideration will be given to those whose P-ads 
are printed the turn immediately following their First Basic Arena Fight].
     Personal Ads MUST INCLUDE the Warrior Name, Team Name, Manager Name, and Fighting 
Style.
     The idea of this category is that every manager in the Hammer Contest Arena will 
know the Fighting Style of every Style Master contestant, thus making the winner of 
each Fighting Style prove they are a Champion by battling their way past their own 
Style Competitors, plus overcoming the odds of unfavorable matchups vs. the Fighting 
Styles most favored by the oddsmakers to beat them in a battle.
     [See Matchup Charts listed in most DM Hand Books or DM Websites].
     Visualize a fish going upstream to spawn while having to make its way past 
natural predators, fishermen, shallow water, plus obstacles such as fallen trees and 
rocks with rapids and small waterfalls and you get the picture of what a Style Master 
must do to become the Champion of his/her Style Category.
     Warriors registered with teams migrating from Transfer Arenas MUST ALSO have ZERO 
(0) Basic Arena Fights while their team was located in the Transfer Arena.
     Tourney Experienced Warriors are welcome to compete, but will be DISQUALIFIED 
from the Hammer Contest if their First Basic Arena Fight lands them in the Challenger 
Initiates or Higher.  [If that is possible for a Sand Bagged Warrior?]
     Re: Warriors declared in the P-ads for a Particular Style Master Fighting Style 
Category MUST BE RANKED in the Initiates Class after their First Basic Arena Fight in 
the Hammer Contest Arena to qualify as a Style Master Contestant, whether their First 
Fight be a Win or a Loss.
     Style Master Winners for the 10 Duelmaster Fighting Styles are determined by:
1.  Being the First of their Style to Graduate from the Hammer Contest Arena
2.  If No Warrior Graduates, then the First of that Style to become the Hammer Contest 
    Arena Duelmaster ON or BEFORE the FINAL TURN of the Hammer Contest is declared the 
    Style Master Champion, or
3.  No Graduates or Duelmasters of that Style, then the Style Master Champion will be 
    determined by the Highest Ranked ACTIVE REGISTERED Warrior of that Style listed in 
    the Arena Newsletter on the Final Turn of the Hammer Contest.

Top Point Gainer: Category Number 17
     The Top Point Gainer is determined by the accumulated points tabulated from each 
Hammer Contest Arena Newsletter listing the Top Five (5) Teams on the Move each turn 
during the contest.
     Every time a team appears in this newsletter listing, points gained are added to 
any points gained from previous appearances on this list during the contest.
     Top Point Gainer is the team with the most accumulated points added together from 
each appearance on the DM Arena Newsletter Top 5 Teams on the Move listing.

Marathon Award: Category Number 7
     This Award is given to Each Arena Team that fights a designated minimum number of 
arena fights that were determined prior to the start of the Hammer Contest.
     For Example, the MMM: Morya Madness Marathon Award in DM 28 requires a minimum of 
120 fights out of a possible 140 over the course of 28 turns.
     [5 possible warriors fighting per turn, times 28 turns = 140 possible fights].
