Well, my last turn here (provided the courier service has fast horses). Hope I can earn a Royal send-off. Keep it real, Aradi! May the gods guide your blows straight and true! -- Royal Assassin, Duelmaster and Lord Protector SPY REPORT Ha! The sands of Aradi drink deep again, and I, Blix the Mad, scrawl the tale with ink that may or may not be blood. Don't ask! Or do ask! I'll laugh either way. It is going to be a quick one today. I think I am on to something big here in the arena, and the officials are rushing me out because I've almost figured out their game! That's right! Push me out and cover up the truth! I will get to the bottom of this grand conspiracy, but first, I have to report the arena news. The throne has changed hands--Atalan pried the crown from Royal Assassin, who now takes a long walk to Advanced. Atalan eases into the throne and bears the weight of glory. I'm sure he will enjoy all the accolades that come with the position, but you must decipher them! The real meaning of things can be found in the silence, the unspoken words. What are they hiding? The crowd roared for Queen Tiffin, who added another pelt to her regal collection, slapping Calm Anemone back into the Aradi tide. She is now bound for the Isle as well. Will she be a queen there, or just another name on a roster? The bloodiest cheers were raised for Rusty. Rusty showed there was nothing dull about his blade, slaughtering Bad Red in a challenge that ended quickly (and badly) for Bad Red. Add Coldy's victory over Take Charge, and The Bunkhouse looks less like a stable and more like a crashing wave. The whispers in the taverns? Everyone is fearful of the Tinfoil Mafia. Yes, the gladiators of Aradia are running from the so-called paranoid warriors. They were dodged the most by The Bunkhouse. Conspiracies within conspiracies!! It's a conspiracy, I tell you! Here are some other notables from the turn: Most Popular: Arctic Colony. Apparently, people like frozen wastelands. Least Popular: Wetwork Zero. There is nothing to say here. It looks correct. Big Movers: The Bunkhouse stormed up the Aradi rankings with a 4-01. Meanwhile, Unnameables slipped a notch or seven. So, Aradi, drink deep and sharpen your steel! The sands demand more blood or wine or something in between. Come back! I will whisper more truths in your ears that you'd rather not hear. -- Blix the Mad DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ATALAN 7656 11 8 0 118 PHILANTHROPISTS (594) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME NATURAL LOG 9737 14 3 0 122 RAMONDA'S CLASS (733) QUEEN TIFFIN 9710 18 11 1 99 NEON ROYALTY (732) -ERIC GAGN'EH 7402 13 6 0 97 INGRATE WHITE NORTH (348) THE IRON DUKE 9769 9 9 0 96 NEON ROYALTY (732) DRAVENDER 7655 11 6 0 91 PHILANTHROPISTS (594) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CALM ANEMONE 9706 9 4 2 90 UNNAMEABLES (91) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME COLDY 9758 11 14 1 89 THE BUNKHOUSE (595) TAKE CHARGE 9636 19 20 0 80 13TH CIRCLE (131) CAROM 9724 12 11 0 75 13TH CIRCLE (131) SECRET RETRIBUTION 9668 10 4 0 71 WRATHMEN 23-40 (728) -KEANU R'EHVES 8991 11 9 1 69 INGRATE WHITE NORTH (348) BADGER 9661 8 43 0 67 RED DOG GANG (476) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME RUSTY 9848 5 1 1 51 THE BUNKHOUSE (595) PRINCE LAYOUN 9778 12 10 0 46 NEON ROYALTY (732) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -PADASHA 9821 2 0 0 33 FAR TRAVELERS (736) DERS 9855 4 1 0 31 THE BUNKHOUSE (595) -THE BEER MILE 9152 4 3 0 31 INGRATE WHITE NORTH (348) SHADOWLOOP 9860 2 2 0 27 TINFOIL MAFIA (738) -BAG O' ICE 8713 4 0 0 25 OK, WE'RE HERE (287) AGGIE 9861 2 2 0 24 THE BUNKHOUSE (595) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME MRS.
