It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in JURINE. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! Hey everybody, watch out for CANYON WALKER, who flew up 15 points in the rankings after mashing PERSISTENT BEGGAR like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was IAN CUBIT, who dropped 11 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with KHARTOOM. Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was MIDDLE WAY 16's MUPPET KING, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by KING JUSTICE. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff? Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the JURINE arena. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad MIDDLE WAY 16? Big bad MIDDLE WAY 16. Big bad MIDDLE WAY 16. JURINE's afraid of the big bad MIDDLE WAY 16. Tra la la la la! For those of you who like math, try this one: MIDDLE WAY 16 + Weapons That go Boom = THE RULING CLASS + Avoid City. Well just about everybody wants a piece of SLOWPOKE, who was this week's most challenged warrior. Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the most interesting, though! Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster. I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of you whom I have not offended yet. Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME KING JUSTICE 2212 13 9 0 109 THE RULING CLASS (267) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MUPPET KING 4508 23 23 0 92 MIDDLE WAY 16 (387) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME WHERE HAVE U BEIGNET 4587 7 0 0 69 BEIGNET MADNESS (482) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME KHARTOOM 4606 5 0 0 61 EXCITINGLY AVERAGE (484) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME IAN CUBIT 4538 7 30 1 52 MIDDLE WAY 16 (387) HESITANT TO UTTER 4614 4 1 0 46 LEGITIMATE SWAY (485) BARRELHOUSE 4593 5 4 0 42 BOURBON & BLOOD (483) LORD SAFEGUARD 2438 5 1 0 40 THE RULING CLASS (267) BEN AND JERRY'S 4579 8 7 0 37 MIDDLE WAY 16 (387) GRAVEDIGGER 4608 4 1 0 37 BOURBON & BLOOD (483) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SLOWPOKE 4569 4 16 0 33 MIDDLE WAY 16 (387) BEIGNET DONE THAT 4588 3 1 0 31 BEIGNET MADNESS (482) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HEMP EMPEROR 4600 4 3 0 21 THE RULING CLASS (267) SOUTHERN GOTH 4592 1 1 1 17 BOURBON & BLOOD (483) -DIE HARD 4615 1 0 0 15 LEGITIMATE SWAY (485) CANYON WALKER 4607 1 0 0 15 BOURBON & BLOOD (483) RUSH TO FULFILLMENT 4613 1 1 0 8 LEGITIMATE SWAY (485) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
