                                 THE GUARDIAN'S FORUM
                         Reflections by the Chief Tower Guard

     Ok, there's a few lessons to be learned from this month's Duelmaster.  First off 
all, when jaded managers tell you Wit and Will are the be all and end all of an ADM 
character, that is simply not the case.  I started had an 8 Will when I started 
dueling, and although it's improved slightly here, it is still more than enough to 
handle a great variety of foes.  Add in to that that I still have skills to learn.  If 
you have seen your opponent fight enough, you can use a wise challenge to help 
overcome an underdog position.  I doubt I will be here again to pass on words of 
wisdom next month, as I am trying an experimental bare-handed strategy with my TV 
challenge, which this turn will be directed towards T-Bone of Warckers.  I believe 
he's another one of these warriors that can no longer learn skills in this arena, so 
I'm hoping that he will be able to help my training regime.  It would prove 
particularly useful, as I will be heading back to the grand ADM tournament again after 
this turn in hopes of a second straight ADM tournament victor status.  I doubt I will 
run into either T-Bone or Lilc there, but I see Moonbeam as a likely foe, since we 
fought in ADM in the land of Minny's Sodas.

                                            Willie Makit
                                            of Mistaken Identity
                                            Glad to have finally made it.

     Tournament time is nearly upon us again.  I will be sending a large contingent 
again this time, but I suspect it will be weighted less towards my ADM characters this 
time, and more towards the regular DM characters.  Remark A Bull, Boarish Yeltsin, 
Fountain Troll and Willie Makit will likely all participate in the ADM tournament, 
with Irritating Beggar and Pet Cemetary going off in search of Eligibles.  Venomous 
Porcupine and Amphibious Guard have both been given their Primus walking papers.  Good 
luck to all Chrysalites.

                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Hail and well met warriors of CRYSALIS!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  ZIPPER caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested CEPHAS and was awarded 29 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, SIMIRI TYL KREN put down 
UNDERWOOD, causing him to lose 20 points of recognition in the process.  Due to his 
absence and inability to defend the throne, WILLIE MAKIT has lost the title of 
Duelmaster.  This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.  All hail JIVE, 
Duelmaster of CRYSALIS!  No confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has 
gained their position using magical aids.  Charmed weapons perhaps?   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In CRYSALIS "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!  My inside sources tell me that the team to beat 
in CRYSALIS these days is THE CUTTING EDGE.  At least, most blades in town are 
looking to avoid them.  Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was 
that spent the better part of last week avoiding THE CUTTING EDGE.  Indeed it was 
HIGH HOPES.  Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below.  BOSTON 
STRANGLER take warning!  You have more than a few enemies in CRYSALIS.  I cannot but 
express pride for the fearlessness of FLASH who cast caution to the winds and TV 
challenged SYCAMORE, a fighter 63 points higher.  I must admit to some joy.  Before 
my very eyes the underdog in this contest, FLASH, defeated SYCAMORE to claim victory 
and recognition.  Give PUSSY WILLOW credit for his courage.  Did you note how he 
challenged BOSTON STRANGLER despite the 62 point difference in their rankings?  Truth 
to tell, PUSSY WILLOW did not come out of the fight a winner, but he managed to 
capture much attention, gaining 21 in recognition.  At the gambling halls I have 
started to bet money on RASCALLY RABBIT.  He has got the courage it takes.  Witness 
his challenge this turn against RUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!  The THE WILLBURYS 1 stable will be 
up late tonight, for indeed it was RASCALLY RABBIT who claimed victory in the 
contest, ascending 32 in recognition!   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins.  In the arena 
there is only the brightness of steel.  Keep vigil always!   
     A thought before I go.  Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise 
manager learn the secrets of them all?  Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy 
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till we meet 
again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a 
lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

     Sorry all, Livia is stranded in non-email land due to a computer crash.  Thus 
     nothing from her. -- Ed.

Simiri -- Ah, but pedestals were meant for knocking over. -- Irish Coffee

Anlis -- But you people are so tasty I can't resist the temptation to take a chomp! -- 
Chipped Tooth

Doc Butler -- I would gladly forget the SLIP-away, but now I must slip-AWAY to Primus 
-- Amphibious Guard

S.T. Deck -- Cute...stand-up comidibears are not cute, we're funny.  Please inform 
your off-spring -- Fozzie Bear

Lilc -- Yes, I see that you too can lose the throne when challenged.  Your efforts at 
duplicating my results are to be applauded. -- Amphibious Guard

Lilc -- Now can you follow me to Gateway? -- Amphibious Guard

Carny -- I paid a visit to Mystic Numerologist in the sideshow tent. -- Little Sir 
Grunge

Little Sir Grunge -- What did Mystic Numerologist have to say? -- Jive

Jive -- She warned that something evil was a foot in Chrysalis -- Little Sir Grunge

Little Sir Grunge -- I believe I am part of that foot. -- Achilles' Heel

Achilles' Heel -- Quit being silly, or I'll have to stomp on you. -- Tasmanian Devil

Carny -- Anyway, Mystic Numerologist said to beware of a double demonic possession.  
First MHC's loss total is suspicious, and if you hold the newsletter upside down and 
look at the last character in each of Crip's win/loss/kill totals here, you will see 
further evidence. -- Little Sir Grunge

Little Sir Grunge -- I believe it's a plot by Pandora of the Pretty Legs to take over 
control from these managers. -- George Washing Ten

George Washing Ten -- Yes, it's all about control, or the lack thereof. -- Newt 
Gingrich

Moonbeam -- You are looking more like a shooting star every day. -- Miss Zing

Celtor -- Every time I see you, you look better than I think you should. -- Pet 
Cemetary

T-Bone -- You certainly like targets that don't swing back. -- Dutch Treat

Elbow Smasher -- I, on the other hand, don't feel bad about taking a bite out of that 
joint. -- Chipped Tooth

Daghur Steele -- So am I cute or funny?  Your future lies in your hands. -- Fozzie 
Bear

Bubbles McNasty -- I found a weak spot in your Bathtub. -- Achilles' Heel

Destiny -- I guess I wasn't meant to be. -- Snuffleupagus

Cephas -- For not being a favourite, I certainly like that weapon whenever I decide to 
use it. -- Prince Apple

Simiri Tyl Kren -- Is it the pedestal that's tipsy or you? -- Remark A Bull

Anlis Tyl Mia -- I think you are a little underaged to be drinking. -- Irish Coffee

Otto Pig -- I guess you know who lives high of the hog around here. -- Boarish Yeltsin

Corona -- I'm still a little rough around the edges. -- Tasmanian Devil

Boyo -- Well, next time I'll just try to hit you harder or something....  Then again, 
you have me outclassed.  But we'll see if I can't whup you one day.  Even if it 
requires luck. -- Torian

Lazer -- In Monuntial we are on more even terms.  Your guys have been fighting here 
for a while, mine have not. -- Medrian

Pussy Willow -- No pussy-footing today. -- Lo Kai

Kalandra -- (panting)  Good one! -- Jinda
P.S.  But didn't we just DO this?

Remark A Bull -- They threw flowers onto the sands for YOU?  These Alastarians are 
weird. -- Simiri

Irish Coffee -- Mantor, have I ever got a headache! -- Anlis

Ruin -- No skills for either of us.  Darn. -- Ko Tenne

Parnell -- I nearly missed that fight, it was so fast.  Sorry about the head shot. -- 
Konor

Vesper -- Thank you, sir, for allowing me that win.  I've been rather nervous about 
fighting here on the Isle, and there's nothing like a win to encourage a woman. -- 
Maritte

Yosemite Sam -- I really should be in Home Guard, shouldn't I? -- Varo

Prince Apple -- I can use any skill I can get. -- Simiri

Achilles' Heel -- Looks like it.  Can you still dance? -- Ko Tenne

Chipped Tooth -- Certainly not!  While a chipped tooth may be rugged-looking, and thus 
potentially sexy, it makes very ragged bites. -- Anlis

Mountebank -- No doubt you have an unusually brainy type of dagger. -- Varo
P.S.  But there's more outwitting in an epee--that "rapier wit," you know.

Flash -- Any time. -- Jinda

All -- For those who chose to read my 'Guardian's Forum' last turn, that was 25-4-0 
for Moonbeam.  Ooops, make that 26-4-0.  As I see, she eked out a recent victory over 
Miss Zing. -- Lilc

Dollface -- You can trust Infection.  His heart is in the right place, even though his 
actions may come across as harsh and egotistical. -- Scarlet Fever (a demon voice from 
the past)

Congratulations to Willie Makit, you dirty, rotten, no good, ugly, filthy....  Ah, I 
can't keep it up!  Willie has always been a favorite of The Consortium collection.  He 
fought like a champ and is a champ.  The jerk! -- Lilc

Amphibious Guard -- Thank you for the compliment.  As you can see, though, Willie made 
me! -- Lilc

Snuffleupagus -- Cute, man!  It's okay, I've got extra cabs. -- Yellow Cab

Carny -- How nice of you to congratulate me.  But as you can see, it rained Willie 
Makits and I got flooded. -- Lilc

Lazer -- Thanks, bud. -- Snuffy

Joshua -- How'd you like that treatment?  Thanks for the big tip. -- Yellow Cab

Shellhead -- Well, you impressed me!  Wanna see my screwball? -- Corn Field

Drip Pan -- Sorry to bother you.  My hands weren't big enough to fit around your neck. 
-- Boston Strangler

Zamyatin -- They way you did that, I thought you were trying to kill yourself.  I'm 
here for you, buddy.  I can make you look real good! -- Mortician

Rock -- Now THAT was an impressive mood.  Salute! -- Flash

Rob -- Take it easy, will ya?  I sent the diplo to see if our immortals were governed 
by the same rules as our basic guys that can be killed.  Agis' stats weren't even a 
consideration in that challenge.  He was merely in range and I was curious to see how 
he was developing.  Granted, using an AB wasn't the best way to gauge that.  For that, 
I'll apologize.  There are lots of other folks who won't have a problem with my 
challenges so leaving your guys alone won't be a problem for me.  As for your PS, it 
sounds very much like a threat.  Dig up anything you want.  But you know that I don't 
respond favorably to threats, and there really is no reason for friends to take that 
path. -- Michael

Crip -- I take it you don't remember me?  I ran Street Angels and Axe Masters in 73 a 
few years back. -- Lazer

Hap -- That deck was sure stacked against me! -- STD

Boyington -- You're just scary!! -- M.F.

Calvin -- Good fight!  Love the skills!! -- Kickin' Asp

Cancer -- I've gotta ask.  What was that?! -- Felicia O.

Patton -- Gee, thanx!  With one shot you blew my social life for a month! -- Misty 
Meanor

Prince Apple -- He slices, he dices, he kicks my butt! :) -- Cephas

Naja/Ophidian Order -- You made it, congratulations. -- Dachir

Rumble!!! -- Sorry to make you cry like that!  Perhaps all those skills will help? -- 
Lonalilta

Jinda -- Another win, 5 skills and a "Master" whatever that is?  All this can only 
mean one thing.  PARTY!!! at Kalandra's estate.  R.S.V.P. to Kickin' Asp.

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
