SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Nothing is certain in MORDANT, with changing
loyalties, changing Duelmasters. Write this down: new top team--BOOZE. Those
betting on OUTTA PHASE lost their shirt, as OUTTA PHASE lost their fighting
abilities: 0-0-0. Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a
perceptive observation?) as KIDS GONE BAD can attest... BOOZE posted a nice gain, to
come in 1st. Everybody loves a winner... Practice pays for PHIL HELLMUTH, who
pummelled RANDOM MANIAC, to pocket 20 points. A certain someone should cut down on
the drinking and practice more, after losing 9 points to CKYNST OAF. (Discrete
enough, JOSH?) Well, Duelmaster VERMOUTH challenged LAB EXPERIMENTS' CRATER FACE. Is
a 9-2-0 good enough? CRATER FACE found out that MORDANT isn't a democracy. You've
gotta be the best to be Duelmaster here! Word has it one team in MORDANT is taking
speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
And how sociable are MORDANT's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of CLUELESS should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided
team... As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of KIDS GONE BAD, so did
that sorry team shy from CLUELESS Is it charming personality? Conversational
abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, CRATER FACE is the most challenged
warrior.
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Those who owe EARTH
ANGEL of ONE HIT WONDERS money and had written her off, take note: she'S BACK FROM
THE DARK ARENA!!! AND she'S MAD!!! Questions are being raised about the disposing
of severed body parts in the arena. A certain tavern in MORDANT would I avoid!
Leave me now, you base fools! 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. 'Til next time--
Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Hmm, five teams moving upward faster than the Homicidal Maniacs. That bodes well for
the arena, though not so well for the Maniacs. -- Jorja, skimming the newsletter
I got the most challenges? Is there anything good in that for me, a bonus, maybe, or
at least a free meal? A drink from whoever got through? SOMETHING? -- Little Bear
Hmm, what Debby didn't say, but obviously meant us to understand, is that we should
not wear purple robes into the arena. But really, who would? I don't even wear a
purple robe at the breakfast table where I might get milk on it. -- Cereal Killer
Assur -- Does the graduation of Honesty mean we've seen the last of the Mighty Morals
in Mordant? This town may go to hell in a handbasket without them. -- Jorja
Vermouth -- Ugh. You offer me a drink, the fight is called, and I wake up the next
day with a headache. If this is what it means to be most challenged, I'll pass next
time. -- Little Bear
Brandy -- Ugh, you just about killed my cereal! I was sitting down to a bowl of rice
crispies, and then... the splash of brandy.... They exploded! I've never had a bowl
of rice crispies do that before, and I don't think I like it much. So let's avoid
this in the future. -- Cereal Killer
P.S. I don't think even cheerios or shredded wheat could handle brandy. As for corn
flakes, forget it.
Crater Face -- The gods know what the Oaf was trying to say to you, *I* surely don't.
Take it that he acknowledged the fight. -- Masked Murderer
Josh -- You're so clueless, I was at a loss where to begin. -- Random Maniac, darling
of the fans of Mordant, probably for his relentless defense of the alleys against
sanity and crime
Sponge Bob -- Good gods, man, I don't have all day for this stuff! I've got a
business to run. -- Masked Murderer
