SPY REPORT Greetings, Warriors of MORDANT. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. He who laughs last didn't get the joke. Speaking of laughing at jokes, observe BOOZE. Last week they got 0-0-0 to drop by 4! SWEORDMASTERS had cause to celebrate, after WAELGAEST got 15 points by beating RANDOM MANIAC. CHINA BULL certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to CRATER FACE and losing 5 points in the process! A certain someone saw VAN DERMINT at Conan's Place with the shakes, and now he fails to show up to defend his throne. What a pathetic slob! In MORDANT, nothing is permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a new Duelmaster, BALL PEIN. Word has it one team in MORDANT is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works. My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... THE AMAZON in the Dark Arena wasn't enough for NAILING of SWEORDMASTERS. Maybe that certain serving girl(?) at Conan's Place will be! Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! All good things must come to an end. As the seasons change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. MORDANT, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at Conan's Place.

I *knew* if I could just get an opponent to hold still long enough, I could make the "nailing" thing work, and it DID! This is so cool! -- Rookie Manager Crater Face -- So ugly, you drive me sane. A hideous fate, I assure you. -- Random Maniac I was thinking, "Somebody should take Grunesh the Orc and smack him HARD upside the head." Then I realized I had him right in front of me in the arena, a weapon in my hand, *I* could do it. So I did. -- Fender Bender This Lieutenant Worel, an Ambitious Guard if I ever saw one, has been believing his own propaganda. He isn't as good as he thinks he is. -- China Bull I'm surprised Geshi Scrivener got out of that fight alive. The Ckynst Oaf seems to hold him personally responsible for the misspelling of his name. -- China Bull for Clumsy Oaf, more or less Wow, I've heard the phrase, "Killing the bottle," but this with Chianti and Grey Goose is more literal than I expected. -- Jorja, just observing LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS NAILING delivered the death blow upon THE AMAZON in a 3 minute Dark Arena fight. 1231717101411 was murdered by SPYMASTER in a 1 minute Dark Arena melee. HAERFEST was savagely slain by DARK CHAMPION in a 2 minute gruesome Dark Arena fight. 21715159125 was butchered by THE AMAZON in a 1 minute Dark Arena contest. BALL PEIN overpowered ROOKIE MANAGER in a 1 minute one-sided Title fight. CRATER FACE devastated CHINA BULL in a 2 minute uneven brawl. RANDOM MANIAC was overpowered by WAELGAEST in a 1 minute bloody one-sided struggle. FENDER BENDER handily defeated CAERAN SLAVE in a action packed 1 minute uneven fight. CKYNST OAF won victory over FIORENZE OF FRATSFA in a 1 minute duel. ERIC SAMUELS lost to OVER INNSMOUTH in a 2 minute fight.
