SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly MORDANT games. Former top team SWEORDMASTERS was
unseated this week as HOMICIDAL MANIACS moved up from 4th ranking to take the top
spot with a 4-1-0 record for the round. ROOKIE MANAGER caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested GRUNESH THE ORC and was awarded 17
points in recognition. Although BRICK WALL made a valiant effort, it did not suffice
to topple the reign of victorious SNAG. Heed this! A seer has warned that if
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or
7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms
no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Tercero Encanto -- I don't think the Wall knows what to make of a lab experiment. I
guess that by nature brick walls are, um, not at all experimental. Very down-to-
earth, your average brick wall. Besides, for some reason, the Wall seems upset with
you. Like a fight is anything new? Oh, well. Channeling follows:
Tercero Encanto -- Your attack upon my fabric is unjustified. If the Mason had
intended that I be of chipped bricks, I would have been so designated on the Master
Plan and built OF chipped bricks. Chipping my integral bricks after they have been
assembled and pronounced correct inclines toward the not-plumb (I think this means
something like "heresy." -- BoB). It is a violation of the Building Code. I had not
anticipated this from a Wooden (I think that means a "female." -- BoB), who should be
softer and more yielding than a Stone (A male, presumably. -- B), especially one who
is an associate of the radiantly symmetrical Swallowtail. Do not make such attacks
again. -- Brick Wall
channeled by Bottle of Beer
Hellacious -- Oh, so it was YOU who killed the houseplants! I might have KNOWN. --
Haydan
Prima Donna -- You have no RIGHT to be taller than me! And you shouldn't carry ON
like that. Big warriors are supposed to LOSE a lot, you know! -- Rookie Manager
P.S. Why aren't you a basher?
Wishful Thinking -- I see a lot of that, my dear. It does look good on you, but is
unsuitable for arena wear. How about trying it at a dancing bar? -- Bottle of Beer
P.S. Beer isn't enough to make me unsteady on my feet. You can dance with me quite
safely.
Open -- Hit the Deadly Bore HARDER. He can still talk, or he could if we hadn't
stuffed an old sock in his mouth. -- Bottle of Beer

Amendment for "Fratsfa's Quest for the Best!"
Managers that have teams already established in Fratsfa need not have (3) three
warriors in the initiates. FE will NOT be a factor. Stables may be entered at any
time. Just announce your stable in the p-ads.
***************************************************************************
This in my invitation to all managers who wish to prove their mettle against
managers from all over Alastari. We have limited TP's in this contest to one a team
at a time. We DO NOT want this contest to become a scum fest as many others have,
hence the Andorian arena. Good luck to all who come to prove their skills. "May
your enemies' blood flow freely" -- Dark Knight Toker, Desolate Empire Alliance

I am in the process of moving house, and spotlight writing for the next two months
will be very hit-and-miss. -- the Scribe
