I had a random match-up with Javelino and got my revenge for an earlier beatdown he put on me in that first fight. It is a bit disconcerting to be fighting a dwarf that stands six feet tall. Dudes taller than I am. LOL I didn't issue any challenges, again. I suspect I'll get challenged by Out for a Duck, since he is now ranked right below me. I guess it'll be interesting to match-up with a fellow martial artist for the first time. Well, I have to go. The Boss is going on a rant about something and I should probably be nearby, in case things get crazy. B B B Til next time, Rat Soldier, signing off REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER Nine fights! Yup, got to agree with Rat Soldier, this arena is really small. The Arenamaster has a megaphone to use while you're fighting, and yes, it does echo. As I mentioned, there were nine fights today. Only one challenge, thanks to Burm Wolfsnarl. No one died, and Mirkwood Orcs avoided Bad Signs. BURM WOLFSNARL (81-113) (103-77-0,201) of BIG LAKE OUTCASTS challenged MOOSE (56- 3459) (77-104-0,210) of REDHORSE. BURM WOLFSNARL bested MOOSE in a 2 minute Challenge fight. RAT SOLDIER (62-5152) (59-27-0,385) of RODENTIAN NATION fought HUMMINGBIRD (56- 3475) (106-121-0,219) of REDHORSE. RAT SOLDIER devastated HUMMINGBIRD in a 1 minute one-sided Title duel. Rat Soldier is still our top Aimed Blow and the Champion of the Horn, while Hummingbird is the top Slasher. Rat Soldier, thanks for the column. RENEGADE-RAT (41-388) (47-39-3,224) of RAT PAK fought THE LEPER'S HAND (81-2940) (76-44-1,208) of BIG LAKE SOLUTION. RENEGADE-RAT was viciously subdued by THE LEPER'S HAND in a popular 3 minute match. The Leper's Hand is now our top Lunger, having taken that title away from his opponent. BUCK (1-2291) (76-169-0,184) of MOSSRUNNERS fought MOD COD (55-2638) (445-229- 5,210) of RHYME TYME. BUCK was devastated by MOD COD in a popular 1 minute brutal one-sided contest. Mod Cod remains, as always, the overall popularity leader. Buck actually gained 26 points. NARSIL (81-3401) (58-40-1,193) of MIRKWOOD ORCS fought LAUDINA (81-3658) (49-33- 2,194) of MADNESS. NARSIL was devastated by LAUDINA in a popular 2 minute bloody uneven brawl. Laudina is still the top Parry-Lunge. ANDURIL (81-3435) (46-42-1,196) of MIRKWOOD ORCS fought VERMICIOUS KNID (107-30) (0-0-0,240). ANDURIL was luckily beaten by VERMICIOUS KNID in a crowd pleasing 4 minute gory brawl. Anduril is the spectators' favorite fighter this turn. Nobody liked the Knid. RINGIL (81-3633) (42-31-2,186) of MIRKWOOD ORCS fought JAVELINO (56-3728) (67-78- 1,198) of REDHORSE. RINGIL was handily defeated by JAVELINO in an action packed 2 minute uneven melee. Javelino is the top Striker; Ringil is our best Wall of Steel. BROKEN TOE (56-3683) (73-103-1,195) of REDHORSE fought RAYNER (20-182) (100-155- 3,168) of DEADLINE. BROKEN TOE was overpowered by RAYNER in a 1 minute uneven duel. Rayner is Storm Rock's top Parry-Riposte, and Broken Toe is the least favorite this turn. DURN WOLFSNARL (81-3955) (18-16-1,63) of BIG LAKE SOLUTION fought RIRORNI SOLDIER (107-3) (0-0-0,60). DURN WOLFSNARL overpowered RIRORNI SOLDIER in a 1 minute one- sided fight. So much time, so little to say. I'll see you in two weeks, unless you happen to drop in at the Surly Wench Tavern. -- Olaf Modeen CHAMPION OF THE HORN W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY RAT SOLDIER 62-5152 60 27 0 395 RODENTIAN NATION (466) VALAMANTIS GRAND CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY -OUT FOR A DUCK 83-275 42 72 0 233 BAD SIGNS (397) TELORINTHE -SPAWN'S BLUE BEER 83-403 58 39 0 223 BAD SIGNS (397) TELORINTHE THE LEPER'S HAND 81-2940 77 44 1 220 BIG LAKE SOLUTION (439) SHADOWSPIRE MOD COD 55-2638 446 229 5 217 RHYME TYME (385) KHALANI LAUDINA 81-3658 50 33 2 216 MADNESS (465) SHADOWSPIRE JAVELINO 56-3728 68 78 1 214 REDHORSE (469) ROCANIS -THE OVEN BIRD 75-3934 54 29 1 213 DEFROSTED (455) JADE MOUNTAIN GRAND CHAMPIONS W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY BUCK 1-2291 76 170 0 210 MOSSRUNNERS (113) MORDANT BURM WOLFSNARL 81-113 104 77 0 207 BIG LAKE OUTCASTS (410) SHADOWSPIRE MOOSE 56-3459 77 105 0 203 REDHORSE (469) ROCANIS RENEGADE-RAT 41-388 47 40 3 203 RAT PAK (468) KATI-TEI -TOUCH BASE 32-6828 70 86 1 202 CON + INSULT (442) ARVAT -TEM OF SMALLCLIFF 35-4865 62 76 5 199 HOUSE JHEREG (426) MURSKA HUMMINGBIRD 56-3475 106 122 0 198 REDHORSE (469) ROCANIS ANDURIL 81-3435 46 43 1 195 MIRKWOOD ORCS (467) SHADOWSPIRE RAYNER 20-182 101 155 3 192 DEADLINE (432) SEAM NARSIL 81-3401 58 41 1 187 MIRKWOOD ORCS (467) SHADOWSPIRE GRAND CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY RINGIL 81-3633 42 32 2 179 MIRKWOOD ORCS (467) SHADOWSPIRE BROKEN TOE 56-3683 73 104 1 171 REDHORSE (469) ROCANIS GRAND CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY -NECROMANCER 33-10468 23 27 2 98 CARESS OF STEEL (480) NIYTYOLE ISLAND GRAND INITIATES W L K PNTS TEAM NAME CITY -MOM'S MAD 83-698 20 14 0 84 BAD SIGNS (397) TELORINTHE DURN WOLFSNARL 81-3955 19 16 1 72 BIG LAKE SOLUTION (439) SHADOWSPIRE -THE THUNDERSTRIKE 33-10723 15 8 1 54 BIG LAKE BANDITS (409) NIYTYOLE ISLAND '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

Sure would be nice to be able to be as skillful as these NPC's are so I could defeat these freeloading NPC flunkies.It's so not worth the price of admission. @&#$%!!! -- Anduril the pissed off Orc Out For A Duck -- That was my 49th fight here in Storm Rock and you are the first to challenge me. Grats on ruining my streak. Oh, and I'm not quite up on arena etiquette, so after I lost to you, was I supposed to say, "quack"? LOL -- Narsil Buck -- That was a fun test of your ability to take damage vs my lack of endurance. lol -- Renegade-Rat Hummingbird -- Something needs to change for me towards the better or the Boss says I'll be put out to pasture. :( -- Ringil Is it me or is this arena getting smaller?
