DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Khalani,
Well, I am still here for the sixth time. I know Sanford is getting tired of
fighting me every turn. Do not worry, I only have one or two more turns here, then I
am gone. I guess it will be Sanford and I next turn again. So good luck, Sanford.
Everyone else stay away from Stumpy Joe. He is a killer.
Your Six-Time Duelmaster,
Green Breeches
SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. KHALANI needs a spyreport." Oh, well. Uncool, THE
UNIVERSITY. I mean 1-4-0 is bad. Will they will be allowed to fight? I say use 'em
for training practice! SNOW BIRDS like really fought hard to move up to 7th from
12th. Way to go! One team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 1 after
going 4-1-0. Keep it up, PHILANTHROPISTS! This new team CARDOW HUNTERS shows
promise, and that's all I'm going to say (for now). MVP award for AZREAL ELS?
EASTERN HORDE's proud of him after beating SANFORD and getting 34 points. Talk about
yer big time losers! SGT. DETRITUS got smashed by TOOTHLESSBEARDED HAG, and lost 11
points! Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think GREEN BREECHES
should let CONVICTED ASSASSIN be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it.
Who was the wiseguy that said KHALANI's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at Ellsinore
Alehouse? Don't look at me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. The warriors
of STONEHENGE must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do you guys
know something that I don't? I don't know what ALL AMERICAN's been doing. They
certainly haven't been accepting many fights from STONEHENGE, that's fer sher. Can
THE UNIVERSITY's RINCEWIND be more popular than me? He was challenged the most, but
is that really the same? LONGFELLOW must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair
fights. He challenged BASEBALL. 9 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they
tell me.) I thought LONGFELLOW showed great skill and promise when he won victory
over BASEBALL. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? What a bummer! SANFORD got wasted by AZREAL ELS! But with a 16-19-1, I
guess DETECTIVES aren't too bummed. Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (VICTIM
OF SOCIETY vs. STUMPY JOE, that is.) MUNCHKIN bloodfeuded (is that a word?) SENIOR
WRANGLER for revenge over some guy's bad fortune. Was it really worth it? Fight,
fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do?
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I gotta leave. KHALANI is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!
Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

Druid -- Nice to see a familiar face. -- Eli (Mystik Rainbow)
Urban Mystiks -- Who would have figured that two teams created one after the other
would share the same name? -- Mystik Rainbow
All -- Hello, my name is Elizamir. Eli to my friends. I've been around this game for
a while, but have been absent for a long time. I'm proud to call Khalani my new home,
although I am thinking of also running in 37 where I have at least one prodigy that
I'd like to get to ADM. But this will be my one and only arena for a while...aside
from running a couple of my ADM warriors, that is. But anyway, if you'd like to talk
shop or need some advice, I would be glad to diplo or even e-mail once I get my
computer set up again. So see you on the sands, all. I'm outta here. -- Eli (Jeff
Roy) e-mail: Medicine-Man1695@Yahoo.com
Mystik Rainbow -- Hey, I think I remember you guys from the Mythikal Skool of Magikal
Mystiks. -- Urban Mystiks
Const. Visit -- Sorry about that last hit, but I needed to end the brawl quickly.
Hope "everything" is okay. -- Fos
The University -- What is it we used to call the small, intellectual types? -- Urban
Mystiks
Stumpy Joe -- That was the luckiest kill I've ever seen. And you have the best record
I have ever seen. You now have managed to kill my two best warriors. Whitman was:
16-10-5-21-11-10-11, BA. Another beautiful Philanthropist brother. (sniff, sniffle,
sniff) You can kill Victim of Society and then I'm through with bloodfeuding you. I
don't want any more dead warriors. I don't like you! -- Aragorn
Const. Beakly -- Take that! -- Gossamer
Nigel Tufnel -- You're not so tough now, eh? -- Victim
Jack -- It's too bad you and Whitman didn't get to go at it. -- Longfellow
Toothlessbearded Hag -- Ug. -- Damon
Green Breeches -- Agh. You're an offensive TP. Now I have greater respect for you.
I have one myself. They can be fun. Now graduate already! -- Aragorn

All -- Talon Volksie has finally entered the 90's on the verge of the millenium. I
have e-mail. You may email me at TalonVolksie@aol.com. -- Talon V.
Everyone now knows that DM-33 is one of the "Fiercest & Best Free Blades Arena"
around. The Hammer and others have done wonderful things for that arena. With 50 or
so teams, DM-33 is fun, challenging and a joy to play in. However, I am not here to
talk about DM-33. I want to talk to you about DM-43, Veastian.
DM-43 is not a large arena, we have only 8 teams here right now. It is small,
and not the greatest arena around...yet. We need YOU to help make this a great
arena. Since it's so small, this is your chance to get in on the ground floor and
become a cornerstone of this arena. Not many have this chance. DM-33 is great, but
it is crowded. Here in DM-43 you will not be one of the many, you will be one of the
best. For all of you Noblish Island managers, this is your chance to transfer your
team to an arena where you will have an immediate impact on the game. This is an
arena where you can continue to hone your skills and be a contender for the
Duelmastership. Veteran managers...do you want to make Duelmasters the best it can
be? Help newbies and make an arena of your own?
This is a wonderful chance for everyone. For the newer players to make a
serious impact on an arena and veteran players to be a "founder" of an arena.
Managers like Don John, Mutt Lange, The Rake and myself want you to help make DM-43
the best arena out there. We don't want just "anyone" to come here, we want managers
who want to play hard and have fun. If that is you, then come to DM-43, Veastian.
If anyone has any questions at all, please diplo me and I will reply as soon as
possible. Now is your chance, now is the time. DM-43. -- Apollo Maximillious, mgr.
Cult of the Dragon (339), DM-43
All -- By Seefe's name, am I tired of looking at such team names as Inyo Eye and
Eggnog Warriors. Please, in the name of all that is decent on the face of Ghea, give
your teams and fighters APPROPRIATE names!! I know it can be challenging and
demanding to make up TRULY GOOD names like Boneshredders and Aerie Fire, but please,
don't call your guys something that causes me to dirge in disgust!! It really hurts
your (and my) gaming experience when my warriors have to stand against someone named
"Underwear Gnomes". After all, I can come up with ten names like Bust-a-Plumber and
Chococroc in a single minute, but why don't I do it? -- Shadowfire, mgr. of
Dragonslayers (636) in Solven (DM 22)

The Dawn Always Follows the Night
It can be easily said that the game of Duelmasters has changed greatly over the past
decade or so. Many aspects of the game have changed in recent years: the creation of
Advanced Duelmasters, Primus, regional ADM, Gateway. Modifications to the game have
made it very different since the early days. Some for the good and some not no good.
The Dark Circle has been a major driving force in every aspect of Duelmasters since
very early on. It goes without saying that there is no alliance past or present that
has matched the accomplishments of the Dark Circle. The list of names that have graced
the rolls of the Dark Circle has been a who's who of Duelmasters: Scrag, Neon
Necromancer, Guardian, Papa Bear, mouse, Mr. Animal, Merlin, Sharky, Moriarty, Doc
Steele, Mongo, Boss Rat, Blood Wizard and many more. The alliance has seen many
changes in its time, and now it is time for The Dark Circle to make one last "change".
We have decided to hang up our hats and call and end to this fine alliance. We have
done it all. We can't do any more. The membership of the Dark Circle has done more in
the learning and teaching of the game than any other group before or since. We have
been reviled more than almost any other group since the game's inception, mostly by
those who didn't understand us yet still used what we taught them. We have
accomplished very much indeed, but we, as an alliance, have nothing more to give to
the Duelmasters game or community.
The Dark Circle has officially disbanded and its Wardens are now all independent
managers. With malice towards none and good will towards all, we part company knowing
we have reached the pinnacle of success. We have nothing left to prove. We part as
friends going their separate ways. Think of us as the Beatles of Duelmasters. We did
it right. We did it the way we wanted. We did it in such a way that our
accomplishments are beyond reproach. We part as winners.
Sincerely,
Scrag
Guardian
Merlin
Mongo
Mr. Animal
Papa Bear
