It always bothered me that I couldn't walk up to someone who looked strong and throw down the gauntlet.

To SE's credit, at least they keep trying to make it work. At least they try to keep it fresh by implementing new skills and modes and changing things. Im looking forward to 5.1 and the new Frontline (supposedly Seal Rock 2?) which is great because Seal Rock is the best mode.

Totally agree, each town should a have a little dueling square to just pass the time, mess around while you wait for queues, or just open up dueling everywhere, it would be so nice to be able to duel and mess around in Quarrymill while waiting for PotD queues and such. I think this would do wonders to expose pvp to the broader audience, I imagine it would be very entertaining in town with spectators etc..
