Insults to the Death!

I've posted an excerpt of last night's noble contest in KM Chat, in which Malefact and myself took up the "chivalrous" tradition passed down through the centuries by Folly and Cedric... duelling by insults. And we showed them how it's REALLY done!
This has top snark value, but it's not recommended for younger readers. (No doubt, by saying that, I've caused all the younger readers to take an even closer interest! But please, please, please, and I'm asking as a point of personal of trust here, if you are under 15, please don't read it.)
You can read the full duel at
http://havetstorm.tripod.com/knightmare/id43.html.
Please note that the article is only temporary, and I will be removing it in midweek, or as soon as Interactive KM's site returns to full order and can resume Chat-logging, whichever happens first.

I've cut and pasted the entire script into a Word document so I can have the permanent memories forever! ;D

(As a somewhat belated afterthought, you also really shouldn't read it, as I'm sure most of you have guessed, if you are easily offended or have delicate sensibilities. Neither applies to Zagor of course!)

Man what a Brutal, Unforgiveing, Un-LOVELY, Hardhitting & savage No Holds Bard Insult contest.
Its certainly down to the Knuckle type stuff no two ways about it and not for the faint harted, or thoses with delicate sensabilitys.
But it was very entertaining and
HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE.........VERY VERY LOVELY."
to watch.

Well I went to the chat last night and despite a severe lack of insulting it was a good laugh and some interesting chat, well worth a visit :)

Actually we had another insult duel after you'd gone, Bob. I beat Billy_H 3-1! Still the champ!

*Knees knocking together like castanets.*
I hereby surrender my title by default! (I mean I might as well mightn't I?) I formally pronounce Emii Knightmare's new Champion of Snark!
I'm also changing my motto to, "Discretion is the better part of valour, and cowardice is the better part of discretion." So I'm giving up my crown without a fight, like the valiant hero I am!

Just to let everybody know, Interactive KM is now back to full working order, so the article is being removed later today. I sent a transcript of the full session on to Illusion on Saturday, so it should be accessible from Interactive fairly soon.
If you want to make a copy of just the duel for posterity make sure you do it in the next couple of hours! (And anyone who reads this warning too late, if you send me an IM about it, I'll see about sending a copy of the article to you by e-mail.)

And by the way, I don't have a transcript of the contest on Sunday. It wasn't nearly as good as the one on Saturday so I didn't think it was worth the bother of saving. If anyone else who was present saved a copy of it, please say so and I can refer all enquiries about it to you.
Thanks.
