Another idea

It had been nearly four months, maybe longer, since he considered stepping foot into the outback for DoF buisness. Other things had been going through his mind, including his banishment from the local amateur golf circuit for life about a year ago after starting a fight, and nearly a riot during a well syndicated and publicized tournament. He certainly would not be accepted in other leagues after the incident, so his
quest to become pro came to a dissapionting halt.

After being able to fight off tears, he strolled into the then empty Outback, a blank piece of paper in his hand. He got out a blue ballpoint pen, collected his thoughts, and scribbled his idea intended for a few people, but posted it for all of the DoF community to see:

To whom are somewhat interested:

I had suggested this idea to Rask, Goon and Matt several months ago in private, and after a brief discussion, and finally getting enough funds to finance this project in a few months, I'll now share it with you. I'm proposing a special type of duel which could be held merely for exhibition, or even for serious matters. What I'm saying we could do is just take a standard dueling ring, with no add-ons or gimmicky stuff in, out, under, over, or around
it, just a plain ring, and then surround it with a 4-meter high steel cage, with no doors or any special escape route. The only way to win this one is to simply climb out of the cage and touch both feet on the Outback floor. Anyone think this would be a nice addition to the already brutal Outback? Let me know.

Finally deciding to share his thought with the DoF public, he posts the note up on the corkboard, and heads out, hoping for another one of his creations to get rolling for once.

::tacks up a quick note before warming up::

Set a ring like that up and I'll fight in it. Sounds fun.
