Oh yes... I'd appreciate it if you could put the round number in the subject line of your PMs, to save me confusion. Thanks .

Semi-final 2, round 2

Skanky burns cheers the contestants encouragingly as he is dragged away to aid with the search for the missing contestants, but the rest of the crowd looks unconvinced. The Doctor doesn't help the situation by stopping to shout insults at the commentator.

The gladiators approach once more, and this time Theben looks more serious.

Theben swings on the right, but the Doctor's rapier deftly sends the blow off course.

Theben swings again, producing an exact mirror image of the previous blow, but this time on the left. The Doctor is clearly expecting this, and deflects again, looking almost nonchalant as he puts rather less effort into his defence.

Theben swings for a third time, harder but with no more finesse, and the Doctor's swords frustrates him yet again.

Both took no damage, and remain on 120HP.
Bring on round 3.

Of course, patient or not, I can't seem to resist posting the results as soon as possible .

[Theben]

Shouldn't we wait a little bit longer for our fellow gladiators?

Well, perhaps. I probably won't post any more results today .

(There's been a worryingly excessive use of :cute: smileys in this thread recently...)

[J Bytheway]

But anyway, noone's taken any damage yet, so in a sense, we haven't done anything without them yet .

[DrSpike]

Hehe a touch of light warm up.

[Skanky Burns]

Let me know if anything happens while I am gone.

[Jamski]

Are we starting already?

Hmm... I need a plan...

Ok, orders sent

So I get to the colosseum pub to grab a bourbon before I head out to all the other pubs in the area. You know, one for the road. And lo, who do I see drunk as a skunk and dancing on the table, but Jamski-San! So I wade through the crowd of girls there, get to the table and say "Mate, aint ya suppos'ta be somewhere?"

I still don't know where Chaunk went to, but there are many pubs around and I will not rest until I have visited each and every one of them. Well, until I find our last missing gladiator, that is. I don't want to miss out on the blood, assuming the fights ever get to that stage.

Here's one, win!.

[Chaunk]

Orders sent... some of us have things to do over the weekend don't you know!

[Theben]

Well they're back. Now I can nip off to the pub while they fight...

[Skanky Burns]

Avoid the one across the road from the colloseum. Someone, and I won't mention Chaunk's name, had an 'accident' in there. They are still cleaning up the mess and the place stinks.
