SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly MORDANT games. In one of the week's more notable
duels, BLACK DEVIN put down FENDER BENDER, causing him to lose 10 points of
recognition in the process. Not for nothing has DOOMTAIL in the past laid claim to
the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. Would
you believe that over half of the old women in MORDANT seem to feel that they could
fight better than you gladiators?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. I saw one fighter that warriors
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. LAB EXPERIMENTS is feared. This
much I can say. Apparently the stalwarts of EVIL BEAVERS are catching the bulk of
jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty
fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. BEERIN BOTTLEMAN take
warning! You have more than a few enemies in MORDANT. A match that raised a few
eyebrows at the games this week, it seems that CHIANTI posted a challenge against the
more highly recognized BEERIN BOTTLEMAN. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand
CHIANTI dealt death to BEERIN BOTTLEMAN. Remember warriors, this is the discipline
of steel.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? I must report the passing of BEERIN BOTTLEMAN, veteran of many
duels. 7-9-0 final record His was not illustrious--but death plays no favorites.
Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena there is only the
brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off
city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a
rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani

PERSONAL ADS
Ball Pein -- You are unreasonable! It was your clear duty, due to having less
experience and being of an inferior style, to LOSE that fight, but did you pay
attention? Did you DO your duty? NO! You're fired! -- Rookie Manager
Nailing -- What's the bit deal? Have a beer! -- Beerin Bottleman, full of it
Boy, with this Moneybags Mefrin character be surprised when I hit him up for damages!
-- Fender Bender
P.S. It wasn't my fault, he ran out in front of me. Honest!
Chianti -- Yeah, well, I can't go breaking your bottle until I empty it, can I?
Don't want to waste anything. -- China Bull
Iosio -- Ah. I wondered just what "philanthropy" was and what it's place in the
arena should be. This works. Feel free to lose to me at any time. -- Random Maniac
Our congratulations to Miasma. -- Jorja and the Homicidal Maniacs

There has been a run lately of personals and columns turning up in the wrong
arenas. When you email in something, check and make sure you have the correct
arena number! It's easy for a finger to slip onto the wrong key. When the
receipt comes back, check again to be sure it went where you intended!
Vigilance is your friend, and mine too. -- the Editor
