SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
SHADOWSPIRE brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Now keep the taverns open late
tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for CHILDHOOD HEROES, whose 0-4-0 this turn
dropped them by 5 into 12th. Ha! CLAN LONGBEARD turned their 3-2-0 turn into a 5th
place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit
lists. Now let's all watch DRAGONBANE GUILD's heads swell from their 4-1-0 this
turn. Haa ha ha ha! Big shots, big talk, big deal. Of course, we're all terribly
impressed to see FOPDOODLE win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, RAGE
beat MOLSON and MOLSON lost 15 points. You're breakin' my heart. Looks like
SHADOWSPIRE has some guts at least, STEPH CURRY the Duelmaster was this turn's
most-challenged warrior. AMOS challenged SHADOWSPIRE's Duelmaster for a shot at the
throne. And it's out with the old, in with the new, as AMOS takes the Title and last
week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks
and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha!
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
What's the big D? DRAGONBANE GUILD was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily
livered... grumble... mumble... curse... And it looks like ALE HOUSE MERCS avoided
them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. I
guess I can give a little credit to BEAST WITHIN of PRIMAL INSTINCT for challenging
up by 18 to EGWENE. BEAST WITHIN won to get 40 points of recognition.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. It's about time ZUBIN got beat for picking
on warriors like SAVAGE. Bravo, PRIMAL INSTINCT. See you at Otto's Diner. Not that
I'll be buying the drinks, but I'll be glad to see AMOS and CLAN LONGBEARD at Otto's
Diner tonight celebrating their bloodfeud victory over STEPH CURRY. We're all going
to die in the end, so why worry if the fate catches up with you sooner that later?
There's got to be a better place in SHADOWSPIRE to get a drink than Otto's
Diner! Any suggestions? Just wait 'till next time I show up here, I won't be so
nice! So nyaaah! Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come
this winter-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
Well, thanks for the notes for Fridge! He was a handful! He started 9-13-15-11-21-4-11
and graduates 11-14-15-11-21-4-11. He has always been aggressive. His favorites came
out as Epee, Very Low, Low, No tactic, Learns Riposte. He is mode Endurance and likely
on the cursed side for Damage dealing. Bottom line, He's been fun, but its time for
him to start his commercial career. It's about time he had some action figures made of
him. -- Master Beru
What's going on around here? Let's see if we can do some damage. -- Tripwire
Hunter -- More like Hunted. Or shunted. Or both. -- Zubin
Beast Within -- More like Yeast Within -- Karthik
Rental Ben, a.k.a. Gender Ben(der) -- I am really sorry your guy sucked so bad that a)
he chose you for a manager and b) he ignored Zubin's clear message to kneel or die.
It probably didn't help that c) you forgot to put him in any armor which brings me
full circle back to a). Anyways, I did enjoy that you ran to the forums to drum up
supports amongst the other losers and, as could be expected, boy did they come to your
defense! That said, if you need Schlongsnot in your corner, you should, as they say,
consider a different corner. Anywho, it's below anyone on my team or, really, any of
my stables, to waste avoids on -- let me check my notes... yep! -- the last place
team in the entire damn city of Shadowspire. I mean, criminy, even Dense is above
you. Good God, man, have some self respect. -- Hugs, Vlad
The Iron Council has re-opened its guild doors! All prior members contact Tripwire
(DM18 or DM36) if you are interested in returning. Also, if you have contacts for any
of the old members, send those as well. -- Tripwire
