Narwhal

Yes, it's that time of the year again folks! Narwhal Duelling season!

A Brief History of the sport

There are several different accounts of how this most noble of sports began. There are those who say it was originally devised by a man called Katyushami-San, who quickly spread it to the rest of the world where it became something of a cult phenomenon. Others suggest a man who went by the name of Minamoto-San created it after an enlightening fishing trip and spread it in native Japan first before moving onto the rest of the world. Whatever the case, he certainly had a "San" in his name. There are a few who think he was called San-San, but they are generally regarded to be fools.


Like Unicorns of the Sea, Narwhals are one of the most noble creatures on this Earth. The sport has blossomed into a worldwide phenomenon, and money flows quickly. The skilled better can make his fortune, but the foolish man will become bankrupt. Many different leagues have sprung up, ranging from the "United States Open" - by far the most bloody and needlessly destructive tournament - to the "Worldwide Championship", which due to the illegal status of the sport is held in pubs. Many say this lowers the status of the sport, but there is little we can do.


Some famous Duelling Narwhals :

Narwhal Jimbob - World Champion, 1996-2003
Lucky Eightynine - British Champion, 1989-2006
Admiral of the Creamy Seas - Spanish Champion, 1971-1974
October Wind - Chilean Champion, 1981-1981

The sport is undoubtably undergoing a period of change now, but most are certain it will endure. Despite many leading members being arrested for "needless brutally like those fox-hunting bastards", it will no doubt continue.

It might have been Kyoto-San, actually.

Since "education" is once again upon us, blog entries are being reduced to weekends, Tuesdays and Thursdays. In holidays they will be daily as normal. Sorry, but I just don't have time for work, daily blog entries, and playing Oblivion.
Complain if you will.

I will complain again and again and again, until you see sense. Don't you have many hundreds of blog entries planned, and if not, why not? You could do some guest entries like you said you would do one day.

Also, it WAS San-San.

I no longer have dozens planned. Well, I have a few others planned, but they require a fair bit of time, or Spurling to finish the programming.
And I will say this again - guest entries are welcome, send me one, and assuming it is up to standard, it will be put up.
"Nar-Wal" I think. Like the name "Hal", but with a "W".
