                             Notes from the arena champ.

Greetings!  From your once and future Duelmaster, Sm.ShieldOrBust.

Now, I'm not generally a negative person, but I have to say it really stinks that the 
only PS within challenging range is on my own team, and thus, due to prudish old-
fashioned challenging laws, I can't challenge him.  Sorry, E-Snee.

Mister Doc Steele, sir.  On the one hand, I won't be down-challenging your warriors 
out of respect..  On the other hand, I don't want you challenging me, either.  It's a 
problem.  I'll get back to you on the solution, but for now I'll be avoiding you.  
Heck, I'll be DOUBLE avoiding you because ... why not?  It can't hurt, right?  
Right?!?

And on a separate note... Cash of Treasure.  Tsk, tsk.  Down-challenging 14 points to 
a poor, nearly defenseless 1 FE fighter and still losing?  That's just sad.  You 
should feel ashamed of yourself!  But you probably won't.

Until next turn, I'm still hoping for an early grad notice.  I need to get out of here 
fast before one of you head hunters gets lucky!

                                             -- Sm.ShieldOrBust

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of JHANS!  Once again I've been called out of retirement for 
my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  Ya gotta be quick on yer feet!  Keep 
your elbow off the table!  Thrust!  Block out the pain!  SABERTOOTH is now ranked 5th 
with a 1-0-0 turn.  MIDDLE WAY 17 showed JHANS what they were made of as they fought 
with a vengeance to walk off with 3-0-0.  What's with TWWISTED AND EVIL?  It actually 
beat JHANS' EMBEZZLING SCRIBE, and walked away with 20 more points from the fight.  
Major screwup at TREASURE.  WINDFALL lost 12 points to MYSTERICAL.  Some new 
strategies, perhaps?  Maybe WINDFALL will provide more easy wins...  KUNG-FU MASTER 
was reminded on the sands why SM. SHIELDORBUST is Duelmaster.  I suppose you want to 
hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters?  Tough!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  How well I know the 
feeling of being in the most avoided team!  Don't fall out of practive, RIDDLE OF 
STEELE!  The bums at YUPPIE OG couldn't face the challenges from RIDDLE OF STEELE!  
No excuse for that!  How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged 
warrior, AKIRA!  Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, 
places to go...   
     Who knows what the future holds for a warrior.  More fights, there's no doubt.  
JHANS is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.  I don't want 
to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen
