Lord Dalamar Ar'Daumon and others,
Mayhaps you are correct that I miss placed some of my anger at the comunity towards yourself. When this challenge was posted I wished you luck and asked that you duel with Honor. I can not define honor for yourself or anyone. I can quote Webster all day long it wouldn't help. Maybe this will: "To Thine own self be true, and it follows as night the day, thou canst be false to no other."
What you asked of Adonai, I believe, is without precedent. Note I use the words "I believe" (Although Daegarth's request for a head on a stake comes close) What would you ask of me if I were to challenge you for the heck of it? That I retire from the duels? Would you, if beaten by a Warlord leave the arena? Again, watch closely "I Think" not. You wished me on the spot and the spot I will be on.
What do I believe you vacating the ring should Adonai defeat you says about you? In MY (<~there it is again) opinion, it shows that for all your talk, the Valheru was never your friend. A friend would work past this. I understand that you may feel wronged or dismayed by his challenge, but I KNOW that in the past when you have had differences you have always approached the matter with civility. You have even been civil with me.
Your offer seems to be made knowing the Valheru would not accept it and by doing so would look more the bad guy.
Adonai has "nothing to lose because he requires no peer wins" A warlord loses only his peer wins when bested by yourself or a Baron. He is still a Warlord, and Should Adonai lose, he will still be a Baron. Test him, offer him 2 out of 3, ask him to surrender his ring? You have dueled Adonai, many of us have. Let me ask you this, is his skill not worthy of holding the title "supreme dueler"? Again I repeat, your title is about skill not politics.
To find someone unworthy based on politics is a slap to everyone who lets their blade speak volumes. I tried for many cycles to not get involved in the political machine that has become DoS. Now I am. ::sighs::
Should yourself or anyone else still need to question my remarks, Please contact me personally. Civil you have been, and Civil I shall try and remain.

Mon Cher Monsieur Baphe,
Papa doesn't weld Chaos, he welds Deus and Despite. Uncle Jeff welds Chaos. I weld Rose bud, because she has roses in her handles and I can stand on her and slide down snowy hills.

Mon Cher Madam Adeena,
I know you, I have a snail named after you and she has the biggest shell in the widest world and she has teeth on her tongue! It is really true! Snails crape lettuce leaves and then swallow the itsy, bitsy pieces.
But she is the bestest, because she is a girl just like you. Girls are always right, but it doesn't mean they are right. For instance, I am left-handed.

Maybe this will: "To Thine own self be true, and it follows as night the day, thou canst be false to no other."
Point of order, the guy that said that line was spying and manipulating at least three different people, one of them being his own daughter, the whole time pledging loyalty to them all.
If you're going to talk of honor you ought to not use a line from a spineless lying character in a play where everyone dies. It makes your friend look bad...

::giggles as with a satisfied smile she sits back on her heels and flashes a dimple to Hubie. Shoves the papers back to him as Josh stamps by her. Sliding off the chair, she tacks them all up delightedly, with an impish glee::
::whispers:: Duel with honor, papa. Father's Day is a grand night to duel.
::flits off to do something really important, like watch the sun set to see if it is still red::
