I have to bring you this from the cork board!
So, yeah, this little-person I call Short hired me to watch her beat up on some Tall guy over a rock. Really, I don't get it at all, but she promised Cash Money and food, so I came. Can't pass up the shot at a free meal, after all. Or Cash Money!
Now, see, here's the thing. The way I look at it, you have someone who looks no more intimidating than a garden gnome fighting this cut guy from the military. Easy, breezy, right? That's like money in the bag, like gravy on mashed potatoes, like finding salt in the sea.
By the way, nobody told me what to do here, or how to do it, so don't get mad if you don't like it. Blame Short. She hired me. For Cash Money.
Anyway, Tall and Short decide to fight up on this thing someone called "Styx". Tall proceeded to get kicked up one side and down the other by Short. While I watched, some lizard-guy named Tail fed me sandwiches and drinks. A good time was had by all, I think. Except Tall.
Now, to be fair, Tall kept things fairly close after a bad start. By the fifth exchange, both of 'em had 3 points. And by the seventh, both had 4. But in the ninth, Short shoved Tall off the wooden

thing, so I had to declare her the winner. Cash Money, after all.
So then, don't ask me why because nobody bothered explaining how this all works, Tall and Short went into this muddy hole and fought some more. As they did, Tail left, and that made me sad because he made one damn fantastic sandwich. I want him as a personal chef. And whereas the first fight was relatively interesting, this one made me kind of bored. Not bored enough to where I didn't pay attention, mind you, because there was Cash Money coming my way, but enough to wonder just what they feed garden gnomes these days, because they're a helluva lot tougher than I remember. Short went up 3-0, but Tall got angry, or maybe insecure, and began to beat her back. He even broke Short's nose! But in between the spewing blood and the pained cries, Short showed everyone a whole lot of gumption and unleashed a flurry of flailing upon Tall. Which apparently worked, because he gave her the Rock.
And then she refused to pay me and I'm still waiting for my Cash Money. So, Short, if you read this. Pay me. Please. I want a sandwich.
By the by, I did pick up on the fact that none of you bastards bothered to even ask my name. Seriously, where did manners go?
Signed, Sealed & Delivered by:
Nameless Guy

The delightfully icy elemental Pirate loving lass Wyheree officiated this one folks. Lorance was defending his Barony for the first time against the Warlord Tournament second place prize winner Kheldar. He who is also of Duel of Fists fame for those that aren't familiar with the name.
From what I have heard and read on the cork board this was quite a Challenge Match in true nail bitting, edge of the seat sitting tradition The score was back and forth between the two and considering Lorance had opted for a one duel format this made for some truly exciting moments especially when it came down to SUDDEN DEATH.
Yes technically there is no sudden death in swords like there is in fists but a score of 4 all means that should the other gain a full point in the next round they will have won folks. And this match did have this occur before it was over.
When the last thrust had been lunged inward and the last cut had been sliced and the last parry expertly twirled however it was Kheldar that emerged victorious in 10 rounds as the new Baron of New Haven.

I'm bringing you this one from the cork board folks as I could not be there. The lovely Azjah officiated this match and posted the official results.
Will Wulfson, the winner of the tournament challenged Arch Mage Vincent Smith for the Celestial Tower. And in a three match nail biter, he managed to make good his challenge and wrested the title and the tower away from Vincent.
Will has claimed possession of the tower 7 times now. Please join me in congratulating Will on a fine series of matches, and a round of applause for Vincent Smith in a find defense that went right to the wire.

This Challenge to the Opal Pathfinder holder Dizzy Flores by Anjolie Quinn-Havoick was officiated by the current Diamond of the Duel of Fists Vincent VM Smith himself folks! I couldn't make it so I'm bringing it straight from the cork board in Vinny's own words.
I had the good luck to officiate Dizzy's defense of that green rock against Quinn tonight. The match up went all three duels, with plenty of lead changes, exciting moments, and curses coming back to haunt certain people who flaunt their skills to the dueling gods.
The action started out on the Fern, with things staying close for the first few rounds. Diz had a 3-2 lead at one point, but Quinn fought back to score the next three points and take the first one 5-3.
The ladies then chose to move into a generic, no fun, ring. And boy, did the change work out in Dizzy's favor! She proceeded to take Quinn apart like a school anatomy project, cruising to victory 5-0 in a mere 6 rounds!
Now the big question was, "Would Diz be able to win the last duel and keep her rock after tossing a shutout?" She certainly started off right, grabbing a quick 1-0 lead. But she only managed to score one more point in the match, as Quinn pulled herself together and battled back to win 5-2.
So yeah, Quinn's got Pathfinder now. So go after her!
