Suzhou and probably Shanghai as well (Sorry if I spelled them wrong!) I've never been to the Far East before, not really looking forward to the duration of the trip either. Work related, not a vacation.

Anyway, I was thinking that someone else could pick up the GM'ing in my absense.

I'm not sure if I'll have internet access or not.

I just went to Shanghai. If you'd gone 2 weeks earlier we could have met there.

Sorry about my tardiness this evening........I just built my new machine and all is not rosy. Tomorrow for sure, and I think we'll finish before you go since once we get going it should move fast.

As to Gladiators3, we may need a new GM.

Every one knows about Shanghai so I'm not gonna say anything more. But Suzhou is a nice little city. Don't forget try to get some time off work to visit some gardens. Quite lovely ones there.

I want to go to China.

IMHO the winner should have first refusal for GMing the next Gladiator. If not them then see who else wants to. If we don't finish this fight before Spaced leaves, I'm happy to have Jamski continue the fight.

Sorry for my lack of orders last night. Well... it is close to Valentine's Day

No problemo, I figure that you guys are just sizing each other up. Post here when you've sent them so I'll know to go and look for them.

I'm in no rush, looks like I'm third on the go to China list now. Amazing how I explained what projects would be impacted if I left how they changed their minds.

There we go. Sorry about the wait, have had a cold, and managed to set of a rather violent nosebleed on friday, and I wasn't in much of a state to think of orders. Then spent the day in London with Louise yesterday

Anyway, am doing orders now, should be sent in the next hour or so.

Welcome all gladiator fans to the championship bout between Lord Drogue of Antonie and The Doctor. Both contestants have battled their way here through numerous bouts. Both are healthy, rested, and at full strength to determine who will be the champion of Apolyton. Skanky?

"Well it is about time this thing kicked off. I was beginning to wonder if this thing was going to happen at all. The odds makers have The Doctor up on 2:1 odds. I put my money on Drogue. I've always liked the underdog, especially with those odds."

The contestants stand facing each other about 5 meters apart. They both bow to each other and slowly begin circling to the right.

Drogue makes the first move with a deft attack aimed high on the The Doctor's shield side. The Doctor manages to get his shield up and partially block the blow, but Drogue's sword finds its mark on the upper shield arm of The Doctor, opening up a nice gash.

Drogue left himself open for counterattack during his attack, and the Doctor took full advantage delivering a vicious right cross that caught Drogue square in the nose.

Drogue, not to be outdone, launched another attack, vertically, plunging his sword, first high in the air, then straight down at the Doctor's head. The Doctor saw it coming though and managed to block the blow.

Both contestants stepped back and offered no other forms of attack.

(The Doctor has 87 points remaining, Lord Drogue has 93 points remaining).

(You may now submit your next moves).

Woo0000t!!

I was under the impression that no one tried to hit academics in this contest. I am most dismayed at this new turn of events.

Spaced must have given his nusty bug to me also. Had a very bad cold this last weekend. Never experienced this much pain in my throat. Imagine when you wants to swallow you need to make your fists, and then prepare for half a minute and when you swallow the entire body of yours wrenches because of the pain. This plus you want to swallow every other minute.

I'm one that is against taking madicines unecessarily. But yesterday I've been throwing all kinds of meds down. So much for the pain tolerance of a Yang follower.

But anyway, looks like I haven't missed much actions. Good job Lord Drogue. Let's show them us newbies' almighty strategies!
