Two time Duelmaster, who would've thought that would ever happen. Not I. It's a sweet deal, but I want my Isle invite. Pretty sure one more win will do the trick. So back- to-back random matchups with Busted Flush proved fortuitous for me. I've now had 3 random fights with the Busted One, going 2-1. Judging by the standings, we may well fight again this turn. Nothing personal Flushie, but I need the win to get out of here. Curious fact: Last turn due to this tiny arena. I was voted most popular fight yet still was listed on the least popular list. Just doesn't seem right. Well, good luck to all, except whoever fights me. LOL -- Boggart, a really nice guy. Honest. LOL SPY REPORT Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out ARDIVENT to see what's new. MVP award for EXACT AND FINAL? LOST IN FABLE's proud of him after beating HOBGOBLIN and getting 20 points. Talk about yer big time losers! HOBGOBLIN got smashed by EXACT AND FINAL, and lost 18 points! Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most popular guy in all ARDIVENT. He got the most challenges. (But what about proposals?) BUSTED FLUSH thinks his 12-6-2 and studly character is good enough to face up to the Duelmaster. Any bets? This Duelmaster is like something else! BOGGART stopped BUSTED FLUSH dead in his tracks! I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos. So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these really neat Spyreports can it? The warriors of FANDILS must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? Is there some deep dark secret why TWILIGHT REALM's been avoiding FANDILS so much? Or is it just that they're too scared? For sure, I was holding my breath when I found out VARGR challenged KITALPHA. After all, haven't TWILIGHT REALM and EQUUS PRIMUS had a long standing duel in ARDIVENT? It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but KITALPHA wants me to write about it since she defeated VARGR. Satisfied? Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All ARDIVENT ever talks about is fighting! Me, I'm more laid back. Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.) Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand wash. I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.
