DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.

Greetings Telorinthe!

Something of a surprise to have held the throne for three turns now. I will extend an
invitation to 0-2 Count for this turn since we have never met (and I'd prefer not to
have a chat with Viva Lexa or Tyr, if I have that option!)

As for this accusation of being in violation of the code of conduct of the Loyal Order
of Total Parry Scum, I will point you to Section B7, paragraph 69, subparagraph 33 at
marker Apple 17, and I quote: "Any total parry in good standing with sufficient scum
credit accumulated shall be afforded up to 5 critical attacks in any given year
without question or consequence" (emphasis added by me). Now, if you search the
archives of recorded fight history, you will see that my fight history allows at least
3 and probably 4 criticals; WELL BELOW THE ACCUSED LEVEL SOME WOULD SLANDER ME WITH!

Remember that the three most sacred non-arena careers for scum include both lawyers
and human resources senior management. While I only know what one of those is, my
bosses smiles more about the second than the first.

Interesting facts: 4 of the 5 current heroes have the same value in one stat. 4 of the
5 current heroes are blessed in a common area. I'm the oddball in that common area,
apparently getting dead center on the averages.

Enough ramblings from me. I have an Elasti-lrig to chase down!

Stay Repus!

Mr. Elbidercni
3 time Duelmaster, DM 83, Telorinthe

SPY REPORT

Hello, arena fans! It's your bright-eyed correspondent, Ori Starbloom, here to deliver
the highlights of Turn 228! It has been a thrilling week in the arena--full of
surprises, daring duels, and a splash of strategy. Let's dive in, shall we?

All eyes were on Mr. Elbidercni from Cixelsid Heroes as he defended his position as
Duelmaster! With dazzling skill and determination, Mr. Elbidercni showed why he was at
the top. The crowd was on their feet, cheering every calculated move! Well, that is
how it played out in my head. It was a TP vs. TP fight. Do you know how those go?
Slowly! It doesn't matter, though. We have a winner and a loser! Mr. Elbidercni also
got an extra commendation from the Gladiatorial Commission and will be headed to the
advanced games after the next turn.

Not everyone is a fan of sorcerers, good or bad. The Sorcerer Kings were the most
avoided team this turn, with other guilds stepping carefully to avoid their notorious
roster. It's a strategy game, folks, and some risks aren't worth taking! There are
only two other teams in the arena, so there is a 50/50 chance that either Bad Signs or
Cixelsid Heroes avoided those magical monarchs. Bad Signs takes the notoriety for the
turn, but only by a single avoid.

Give it up for Sacha from the Sorcerer Kings! This warrior offered to take on all
comers and prove why he is the fan favorite. Challengers lined up, but Sacha could
only meet one of them. In the end, Sacha faced 14 Day Quarantine on the sands. Sacha
was able to overcome his opponent, and he also earned an invitation to the Isle! How
exciting!

The arena is not just about victories and defeats, it's about the stories we share,
the bravery we witness, and the community we build. Thank you to the warriors,
managers, and fans for making this turn unforgettable.

Until next time, keep cheering, dreaming, and remember: Every fight has its spark of
magic! Come back in 28 days! Bring a few friends if you are able!

With excitement,

Ori Starbloom

PERSONAL ADS

Mom's Mad -- To paraphrase one of my bosses, "but what about the father!? Who's
looking out for them!?" Apparently I am. Evil gnol and repsorp! -- Mr. Elbidercni
P.S. my current boss kind of LOL'd at the final attack. Said it felt like I pushed you
over with a stick.
P.P.S. At least you deniart well!!

Tyr -- I'll be happy to avoid you next time! -- Ecaps Ghost

Captured Orc -- Well. Don't go in arenas with Dwarves! That is your best option. --
Namtab

Dangerous Criminal -- Lex Luthor?!! -- Namrepus

Gulg -- You can do it! Keep trying! -- Rednow Woman

All -- The big question (and source of numerous arguments) is who gets to be the
spokesperson after next turn. At the rate those three are going, my money is
increasingly on Rednow. She is doing a number on those lower ranks. We'll see what
happens next though. Nothing more for now. -- Mr. Elbidercni for Cixelsid Heroes
