     Well, what are you looking at, WILLAF?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, 2 BAD 4 U, since SAXON took 
top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  SAXON turned their 3-2-0 turn 
into a 1st place rank in the listings this turn.  Any better than this, and you get 
put on hit lists.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see 534C-6 win a fight 
and gain 24 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, BULLEIT beat HIGH FANTASY and HIGH FANTASY 
lost 11 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  Looks like WILLAF has some guts at least, 
TRAFALGAR the Duelmaster was this turn's most-challenged warrior.  TRAFALGAR 
Bloodfeuded MOA for WILLAF's Title this turn, and guess what happened?  And it's out 
with the old, in with the new, as MOA takes the Title and last week's bar tab from 
the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else 
do you think some of these guys win their fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.  2 
BAD 4 U, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.  
Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And it looks like YAK-MOOSE PARTY 
avoided them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  
Hmph.  I guess I can give a little credit to BUDDHA of YAK-MOOSE PARTY for 
challenging up by 21 to CM2033.  BUDDHA won to get 104 points of recognition.   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for WILLAF's 
morgue.  More variety.  Gee, HALLOWED GROUND, ain't it past due for sending 
AUSTERLITZ Dark Arena?  What took ol' '15-21-3' so long?  Hope?  Ha ha aha ha!  We're 
all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate catches up with you sooner that 
later?   
     What does the WILLAF arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Well, I've had enough of this 
drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Paste 
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide 
Clemens
