It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly TOBIR games. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week SAGE SOLDIERS went 2-2-0 to move up 3 in the rankings. ROCK OF AGES caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested AVARICE and was awarded 15 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, MJR FRANK BURNS put down SLOW LANE BLUES, causing her to lose 3 points of recognition in the process. Due to its absence and inability to defend the throne, DEPUTY DAWG has lost the title of Duelmaster. Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7! Many and various are the arts of battle. In TOBIR "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! TOBIR, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy guilds is THIS MODERN WORLD, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels. Apparently the stalwarts of SAGE SOLDIERS are catching the bulk of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. COMMANDER POWLE take warning! You have more than a few enemies in TOBIR. For some warriors honor is not important--only empty victory. See, gladiators, how RACER of ANYTHING GOES challenged down 23 points to LT KERRI STRUG. All the city knows the duel went in favor of RACER. I shall not fail to spread the word in other cities of this "mighty" victory. Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand ready at your right hand forever! Some say a warrior is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in TOBIR. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME RACER 5754 25 6 0 102 ANYTHING GOES (571) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME STRIP TEASE 5808 14 4 0 102 ANYTHING GOES (571) -DEPUTY DAWG 5329 3 0 0 102 REAL PETS 2 (525) COMMANDER POWLE 4593 10 7 0 94 SAGE SOLDIERS (350) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME LT KERRI STRUG 3185 11 19 1 84 SAGE SOLDIERS (350) SILENT MAJORITY 5821 13 6 0 83 THIS MODERN WORLD (576) MUMBLE RAP 5809 12 9 2 76 THIS MODERN WORLD (576) SNEELY 5748 16 23 0 71 THE DOGHOUSE (188) SONG OF EVIL 5825 10 7 1 68 SAXON (578) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ORTEGA 5750 6 0 0 64 BAKER TEAM (543) TATOR TOT 5563 4 5 0 63 REAL PETS 2 (525) ANXIOUS 5751 10 5 0 61 ANYTHING GOES (571) SNORRY 5757 11 26 0 59 THE DOGHOUSE (188) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CONQUISTADOR 5828 6 11 1 55 SAXON (578) -SMELFIE 5822 5 4 0 55 THIS MODERN WORLD (576) CRPL MAX KLINGER 3183 13 11 0 50 SAGE SOLDIERS (350) MJR FRANK BURNS 3184 8 13 0 42 SAGE SOLDIERS (350) ALL GUNS BLAZING 5826 9 8 0 35 SAXON (578) SLOW LANE BLUES 5835 7 8 1 34 SAXON (578) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME AVARICE 5866 2 1 0 29 WEST SAC A'S (581) ROCK OF AGES 5860 4 3 0 27 SAXON (578) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME UNIQUE 5861 1 0 0 13 ANYTHING GOES (571) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
