Sorry that I haven't been able to run the fights. I have a new manager. Previous to my new manager coming aboard, I was reporting to the VP in the interim. Needless to say, my new manager walks by my desk more often than the VP did . . . This will become more sporadic, but I still haven't given it up.

Dorrain (Rank 1, Bloodhaus) vs. Schizophrenic (Rank 1, House Corax)
Weapons: Axe, Axe, Crowbar, Claymore Dorrain walks out onto the paddocks feeling pretty cocky he looks to be in good shape. Schizophrenic, however, looks to be in awesome shape. He struts, not walks, struts out onto the stage and does a little dance to please the crowd. The oddsmakers shift the fight to favor Schizo slightly. 5-4 in the books. Today's guest host comes out to make a the call: It's Drew Carey, with long hair. What's that all about? "Did I ever tell you about the time . . . Ahh forget it! BEGIN!" Both men head for the crowbar! |

Dorrain is the first to get their, he picks up the crowbar and tries to chase down the Schizo, who changed direction as soon as he realized he wasn't going to get to the crowbar before Dorrain. Schizo is moving toward an axe with Dorrain in tow. Dorrain stumbles momentarily and allows Schizo the time he needs to pick up the axe. The two men head begin circling . . .

Both men assume defensive positions and it is Schizo who is the first to strike. A poor attempt at a sideways cut is an easy dodge for Dorrain. Dorrain counters with a clumsy strike with the crowbar and grazes Schizo's arm. Schizo maintains his defensive position and Dorrain adeptly adjusts his style to accommodate. He swings hard with the hooked end of the crowbar . . .

And this time grazes Schizo's thigh with the tip. Schizo tries to get in another sideways swipe. But the agile Dorrain easily evades. However, Schizo gets the advantage attempts striking again. That attempt is a god-awful attempt as he misses Dorrain by a mile. Dorrain counters, but Schizo blocks.

Dorrain's crowbar gets hooked on Schizo's axe during the block and Schizo gets a big smile on his face. Schizo gives a tug on his axe pulling Dorrain and the crowbar towards himself, he then twist the axe handle disarming Dorrain and thrusts forward with the blade landing a good size wound on Dorrain's chest. Dorrain runs for the other axe.

Schizo takes a heavy swing with the axe and it lands right next to Dorrains hand as Dorrain picks up the axe. That was close! Schizo maintains using his advantage and attacks again. But luck is on Dorrain's side as he's able to evade the heavy swing again. The momentum begins to shift and both men can feel it. The two both take big cuts at their opponent.

Shizo's blow lands quickly and with such great force that it cleaves his opponent from shoulder to navel. Dorrain, with the surprised look on his face falls backwards. His body pulls the axe out of Schizo's hand as he hits the ground. Schizo throws both fists up in the air and riles the crowd up:
"TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES! TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES!" Schizo trots out of the arena to the delightful cry of the crowd. Raven Hawk picks up the $12,000 purse and offers to teach Schizo a new weapon skill. Schizo, uninjured, may fight at his own disgression. |

The Real Deal (Rank 1, Malice Unchained) vs. Mucius "The Lefty" Scaevola (Rank 2, Bloodhaus)
Weapons: Lead Pipe, Warhammer, Chainsaw, Crowbar As The Real Deal steps up onto the stage at the paddocks, the crowd applauds. He has apparently been working out for the fight. Mucius "The Lefty" Scaevola, however looks to be in dismal shape. Mucius is hoping that The Real Deal swings continuously at the small piece of shoulder armor that Mucius is wearing. Mucius hopes to grab the lead pipe first and give a beat down to Mucius. Drew Carey steps up to the podium and introduces the two contestants as "Oswald and Lewis," before giving the familiar battle cry, "BEGIN!" Both men head directly for the Lead Pipe. |

The two men both get to the lead pipe at the same time and they immediately start wrestling with the weapon to see who can gain control! Mucius' small bit of experience wins out as he rips the lead pipe from Real Deal's hands and proceeds to swing at him with it. Mucius swings hard at the defensless Real Deal . . .

The hapless Real Deal tries to block with his head and is successful! The lead pipe lands squarely between Real Deal's eyes. The force of the blow splits his skull open and splatters brain matter over the first row of the crowd, most of which did remember to put on their souvenir ponchos. Now they have more souvenir's in the form of brain matter and skull fragments!
TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES! TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES! Mucius pulls the lead pipe from its cranial chasm and hands it to a young fan in the crowd. Mucius has obliterated The Real Deal and is promoted to Rank 3. Demetrius Cavish slides over to the payment window and collects the purse. He quickly purchases an arm guard for his new favorite fighter. Mucius is uninjured and can fight again at his own discression. That is about as quick as these matches can go. |

Love Hurts (Rank 2, Bloodhaus) vs. Little Jeebie Dee (Rank 3, Malice Unchained)
Weapons: Lead Pipe, Crowbar, Spiked Club, Rapier Love Hurts probably realized that he bit off a little more than he could chew when he challenged Little Jeebie Dee to a deathmatch. To make up for the lack of judgement, Love Hurts trained extra hard for the match and has come to the paddocks in phenomenal shape. Jeebie, the ever diligent, trained hard as well. Although he does not look to be in as good of shape as Love Hurts, he is still in remarkable shape. The oddsmakers still like Little Jeebie in this one and they the odds 7-4 in favor of Jeebie. Drew Carey takes to the podium and tells a "Mimi" joke before he let's out the call: "BEGIN!" Lover Hurts wants the crowbar and Jeebie wants the rapier. |

Both men reach their weapons without any problem and head to the center of the ring. They begin circling for what seems like minutes, then Love Hurts takes a tentative swing at Jeebie from a defensive position. The strike catches only air as it stops a foot short of Jeebie's chest. Love Hurts recovers as Jeebie counters . . .

Jeebie thrusts aggressively with his rapier, but over commits himself to the strike. Finding himself in excellent position, Love Hurts strikes quickly. But he can't land a shot as Jeebie lithely recovers and turns the crowbar away with his rapier.

Love Hurts is surprised that he did not land the blow, that he doesn't pay attention to Jeebie's follow up strike. Jeebie swipes horizontally across Love Hurts' belly and steps back into a defensive stance. The sharp rapier landed, but it takes a second or two for the wound to react and start bleeding. Love Hurts counters with a defensive blow to keep Jeebie at bay . . .

Jeebie parries the blow at Love's hand, opening a small wound on the knuckle, but just enough to get Love to drop his weapon. Jeebie quickly moves in to finish off his foe. He slashes downward across Love's chest. The shouder armor picks up some of the impact, but the blade slides off of it and continues to open a wound in Love's chest.

Love takes off toward the Lead Pipe and Jeebie walks after him as though he were playing the part of a serial killer in a bad slasher film. Love picks up the lead pipe and charges Jeebie. Love swings wildly and Jeebie parries the lead pipe away from his head. As he holds the lead pipe in check, Jeebie slides the rapier forward and stabs at Love's head. The rapier pierces through Love's nose and up into his brain.
TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES! TWO MEN ENTER! ONE MAN LEAVES! Love drops the Lead Pipe and clutches the wound on his face, moreso, his involuntary reaction allows him to do that. Hunched over on his knees, Love is not quite dead yet, but he wouldn't want to live on with the wound that he suffered. Jeebie humanely drops the rapier blade hard upon the back of Love's neck, severing head from body. Little Jeebie D has won the match and is promoted to Rank 4. The Rooster, collects the large purse and trains Little Jeebie some more tactics on how to anticipate his opponents attacks. Jeebie is uninjured and can fight again at his own discression. After the match, The Rooster pats Little Jeebie on the back and says, "The boss would like to see you for some private time," as he pointed up to the box where his co-owner Ms. Jameson was sitting. |

I don't have time to update the tables right now, but I will do so on Monday. At least, we can now move on to week 8, which has not yet been filled (unless I missed some challenge acceptances). I'll go ahead and hold an auction before week 8 begins as well, since we haven't had one in awhile.

Hmm, since Qwikshot has managed to duck me again (why does everyone hate him, anyways?) I'm up for the challenge, Parvus. I figure we can get the last fight for Week 8. I think this will work out well for both of us. You can die a miserable death, alone and missed by none. I'm unlikely to sustain an injury here, plus I can further position myself for one of the more elite fighters in Week 9 or 10.

Parvus Caesar vs. Hornsmaniac has been booked to fill out the Week 8 card.
hoopsguy: Horns may want to decide which weapon he wants to be trained in after his last victory. It may come in handy before the next match. The Black Stallion has been added to the Auction Block. Last edited by Raven Hawk : 01-31-2005 at 05:24 PM. |
