What's a move up by 3 you ask? (alright, maybe you didn't ask) Cause for celebration, according to MELNIBONE. MELNIBONE had cause to celebrate, after THELEB K'AARNA got 14 points by beating SHIFTYEYED VOLUNTEER. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 11 points to GEORGE STRAIT. (Discrete enough, CHANELLE?) In LYRATILAN, nothing is permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, BIG BLUE MARBLE. So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me. And how sociable are LYRATILAN's warriors? Come, let us see. Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in LYRATILAN avoid WORKING GIRLS. The warriors of WORKING GIRLS found their efforts at combat frustrated as NEON GRATITUDE apparently had more important things to do than fight. If challenges were horses, PAUL STOCK could open up a fast food joint! Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after life! Charity is unknown in LYRATILAN, and rightly so. MELNIBONE exacted their revenge against GONE COUNTRY. Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain tavern in LYRATILAN would I avoid! Do not think spyreporting in LYRATILAN is the highlight of my life. Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat! Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid LYRATILAN farewell-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BIG BLUE MARBLE 1702 11 4 0 136 FIGHT THE POWER (184) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PETRO STICK 6682 18 15 1 92 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SUSAN MURPHY 6704 12 11 2 86 WORKING GIRLS (193) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -RED BULL 6667 3 1 0 66 LIBATIONS 2 (592) OG CRUSH 6700 7 3 0 60 LITTLE LEO CRUSH (595) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME PAUL STOCK 6680 9 25 0 52 THE MIDDLE WAY 4 (464) YISHANA 6788 5 0 0 52 MELNIBONE (600) DANKE 6732 8 6 0 49 NEON GRATITUDE (593) ARIOCH 6770 5 2 0 37 MELNIBONE (600) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GEORGE STRAIT 4888 4 2 1 33 GONE COUNTRY (453) AETHER FLOW 6675 7 9 1 31 NEON GRATITUDE (593) STORMBRINGER 6771 3 2 0 31 MELNIBONE (600) -PEDIALYTE 6668 8 5 0 29 LIBATIONS 2 (592) RANDY TRAVIS 4887 4 3 0 27 GONE COUNTRY (453) -TEJ 6707 1 2 0 27 LIBATIONS 2 (592) PEARL 6793 3 0 1 26 WORKING GIRLS (193) REBA 4885 5 2 1 25 GONE COUNTRY (453) JADE 6791 2 1 0 25 WORKING GIRLS (193) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CHANELLE 6796 2 1 0 15 WORKING GIRLS (193) THELEB K'AARNA 6800 1 0 1 14 MELNIBONE (600) ALAN JACKSON 4886 1 6 0 13 GONE COUNTRY (453) GNATALIE 6768 2 1 0 12 WORKING GIRLS (193) -ELRIC 6773 0 1 0 7 MELNIBONE (600) -OBAN 6797 0 1 0 1 LIBATIONS 2 (592) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
