I doubt TRANSEL will ever be the same. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for RAT PAK, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 9th. PHOENIX GUARD stable has parlayed this turn's 1-0-0 into a 3 space move up the rankings. This brings them up to 6th place. Good work, guys! And let's see, HEMLOCK fought MORAN and gained 19 points and contributed to CHAOS KIDS' 1-2-0. MORAN has lost to HEMLOCK, falling 12 points, while helping make FIRST NAME BASIS a 1-1-0 turn. TUB THUMPING challenged for the Duelmastership this turn, attempting to dethrone PSYCHO SQUAD's warrior. Defending his title for another turn, DOLFIN kept TOP HITS' warrior, TUB THUMPING, from claiming the throne. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Victory Tavern uses trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle! I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher friend of mine assures me this is true. I also notice that the RAT PAK stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on TRANSEL, what are you afraid of? And avoiding RAT PAK more than any other team we find LANCIARII. TRANSEL, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace. Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Is it really true that TRANSEL has more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask... I like this place, TRANSEL, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME DOLFIN 7885 17 36 0 104 PSYCHO SQUAD (135) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HEMLOCK 8077 10 4 0 88 CHAOS KIDS (669) TUB THUMPING 8081 8 2 0 86 TOP HITS (675) ASH 8016 14 15 0 84 FIRST NAME BASIS (641) MCKINLEY 8020 14 14 2 83 BLACK AND BLUES (575) -RATIGAN-RAT 7820 18 17 3 81 RAT PAK (277) -OVERKILL 8010 13 6 0 80 BREWHALLA (668) CLYDE 8028 11 12 1 73 CHAOS KIDS (669) MORAN 7966 15 26 1 72 FIRST NAME BASIS (641) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -CO-PILOT THOR 8008 12 7 1 59 BREWHALLA (668) -SLANG DU JOUR 8009 12 7 0 59 BREWHALLA (668) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HALLUCENT 8001 10 24 0 54 PSYCHO SQUAD (135) -WAIMEA BLAZE 8025 8 7 1 54 BREWHALLA (668) PAINT IT BLACK 8085 6 4 0 46 TOP HITS (675) PSYCHO KILLER 8083 5 5 1 40 TOP HITS (675) AMBER TASMANIAN 6176 3 2 0 39 METALLIC WOLVES (529) KOKO TAYLOR 8108 6 4 0 38 BLACK AND BLUES (575) BLACK BETTY 8082 4 6 1 35 TOP HITS (675) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ROUND AND ROUND 8084 4 6 1 31 TOP HITS (675) -WARBLER 8093 7 3 0 30 PHOENIX GUARD (677) ULLANDER 7862 6 10 0 28 LANCIARII (635) -MARIONETTE-RAT 8106 1 6 0 26 RAT PAK (277) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME REQUIEM 8112 4 3 0 19 CHAOS KIDS (669) -KATANA-RAT 8075 2 4 0 15 RAT PAK (277) CARDINAL 8103 2 2 0 14 PHOENIX GUARD (677) AMELITOS 8122 0 3 0 3 LANCIARII (635) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
