For you to remain undefeated while playing people from other parts of the
country is no big thing.  The person who is playing on a local Duke always
has an advantage to the person playing remotely, especially if the distances
are fairly large.  Anyway, I am up to your challenge.  But, it appears that
you aren't.  The last couple of times I have tried to start a game up on your
Duke, there wasn't one to be found.  How are people supposed to challenge you,
if you leave them no way to challenge?  :-)  I suggest that you get a Duke
running so that a proper challenge may be made.  

DEATH TO ALL EYEBALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
