SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt MORDANT will ever be the same. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for
there are sorrows to drown for ROMAN EMPIRE, whose 1-4-0 this turn dropped them by 8
into 11th. DESOLATE TEMPLE stable has parlayed this turn's 3-2-1 into a 7 space move
up the rankings. This brings them up to 3rd place. Good work, guys! The AGENTS OF
ISIRIS guild has had a 4-1-1 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You
never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, SALAMANDER fought
STUPENDOUS MAN and gained 24 points and contributed to WIND STORM's 2-2-0.
STUPENDOUS MAN has lost to SALAMANDER, falling 13 points, while helping make LAME
SUPERHEROES a 0-1-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and
MESSIAH remains MORDANT's top warrior for another turn. Tell me, is nothing sacred?
I have heard from unimpeachable sources that Conan's Place uses trolls in their stew.
Talk about gristle!
Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.'
Inscrutable, but true. DESOLATE TEMPLE has cause to stand tall, as they were
MORDANT's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And
guess who avoided DESOLATE TEMPLE stable the most? Believe it or not, it was AGENTS
OF ISIRIS. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that OLD FART from
DEATH'S DOOR was MORDANT's most challenged warrior this turn. In a brave attempt,
KANDRIS from WIND STORM challenged up 25 points to fight OLD FART from the DEATH'S
DOOR stable. KANDRIS perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he lost to OLD FART
and ended up with 60 recognition points. CONNAVAR of AGENTS OF ISIRIS had better
have a good reason for challenging down 9 points in a challenge which he won. I
thought CONNAVAR showed great skill and promise when he overcame FROST. All right,
so I slept through it! Big deal!
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. DEATH'S DOOR made what looks to be
a tough decision this turn, as they sent S.S.'S TWIN, with a record of 8-6-0, to
S.S.'S TWIN death. Farewell, his. Now it looks like JENNIFER is gone, and forgotten
too, now that VOID did not revenge SWEORDMASTERS' HREOWAN for killing JENNIFER. Is
it really true that MORDANT has more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just
thought I'd ask...
I like this place, MORDANT, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? Well, I'm burning daylight here in MORDANT and I've a long
road ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--

Hortator -- Better luck in the red-light district! -- Salamander
All -- Unfortunately I've been involved with a lot of personal issues that have
dominated my time recently. I hope the future holds blue skies and free time and I'm
able to terrorize Mordant as I should. Real life just bites sometimes. -- JGW
Lord Xiang -- I will be participating in the Olympiad, but I am unsure of which team
it will be with. I will announce a decision next turn. -- JGW
Seraphim -- I'd like to personally thank you for sitting out Gold this long. You can
tell I'm doing much better without that pud around! <eg> -- JGW
To all the teams coming for the Olympiad -- Welcome and good dueling in the upcoming
Olympiad. Hope you decide to stay in Mordant after the contest is up, and I hope you
continue to run while your teams are losing. ;) -- JGW
Catiff -- You knavel! How DARE you do that to me? You're just trying to make me
look RIDICULOUS, aren't you? I can tell. You're MOCKING me. Well, I won't have it!
I'll...stand in the corner and POUT. So there. -- Rookie Manager
P.S. You don't look good all orange like that. In fact, you look really yucky.

Tungsten -- Sharp little thing, aren't you? But that's okay. I like them sharp. I
just watch, and next thing you know, they've cut themselves. Then I laugh. You
know, a sort of wild cackle? Not that "bwahaha" that evil managers use, because I'm
not an evil manager, of course. I'm just your... Random Maniac
Redbeard -- I hope the hangover combines with the sirochi from the rapid rise in

a killer headache. -- Beerin Bottleman
Blackened -- Oh, silly, it's no big deal. (nudge, nudge) A little paint or...I

Boomer -- It's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it. -- Beerin Bottleman
Catiff -- Bottles are for fighting with. First, you pour the beer into your mug.
Then you knock the end off the bottle and defend your position. -- Beerin Bottleman
Tarmon Gai'don -- At your nearest bar or tavern. -- Beerin Bottleman, charter member
of Clean Living Through More Beer
Ed. -- Accepting the premise (which is valid) that actors are maniacs, do I want a
guildhouse full second-rate hams emoting all over the place? I'll have to think
about this. -- Nick
By association of ideas, I think I'll go make myself a BLT.... -- Ed.
All -- I've always wanted to compete in the Olympics! Now it looks like my dream
comes true. Count the Desolate Temple among the competitors. -- Toker, Desolate
Empire Alliance
Lord Xiang -- Looks like my p-ads got lost last turn. Kinda in a hurry, but wanted
to let you know I am looking forward to the start of this. -- Toker
P.S. A few others of the D.E. should be here soon.
You were absolutely stunning. Good fight. Hopefully we won't see each other again!
-- Rellik, D.T. (586)
Comicus -- Can you believe that? I know you were happy! To be losing and close to
finished, just to see your attacker fail at your feet! I wish I would have known! --
Kazach
Frost -- I always thought Frost (cold) made steel brittle, huh! What do I know, I'm
only half-Elven. -- Calas, D.T. (586)
One Armed Bandit -- Here too! It's still good to see a familiar face in the new
lands. This should be fun. -- Toker, mgr. Desolate Temple (586)
Nick -- I'll do my best to be at least a little verbose on every turn. -- Toker

A few notes about e-mailed personals:
You may submit personal ads, columns, spotlights, etc. electronically, either via e-
mail to ads at reality dot com (which doesn't need any more spam, thank you) or on
the web at http://www.reality.com/duel2/modules.php?name=Ads. When you submit
something, you should get back a receipt from HAL at RSI. If you do NOT get a
receipt, your ads may have gone astray (not all e-mail makes it to its destination
any more than all snail mail does). If you DO get a receipt, it should, in the body
of the message, tell you what arena your stuff was filed in. Check your receipt to
make sure your submission made it to the intended destination. Also check to see
that everything you sent made it to the same place. Sometimes HAL, who is rather
simple-minded in some ways, will send half your stuff to another arena if the name
or number of that arena shows up at the beginning of a line. So if the word Ti
appears at the beginning of a line halfway through your ads, all the ads after that
may end up in Ti, which is closed and doesn't need ads. As a side note, sometimes
things move slowly, so don't wait until the last minute to send your ads and all.
If they get held up along the way, they may not show up until next turn. Happy
writing! -- Ed.
