SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt NIANIA will ever be the same. The RESURRECTION guild has had a 3-0-0 turn
and deserves to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing
can lead. And let's see, BETTY fought HALF-TIME and gained 24 points and contributed
to BIG COUNTRY's 4-1-2. ANALIRA has lost to JARCK, falling 11 points, while helping
make THE GOLDEN FISH a 3-2-0 turn. Well done, NIANIA, the Duelmaster was this turn's
most challenged warrior. Perhaps TOOFLESS is not as thrilled, being challenged 2
times. Defending its title for another turn, TOOFLESS kept HARLEQUINS' warrior,
SOLITARE, from claiming the throne. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the
top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at Jim's Tap Room until they win.
Maybe?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. I also notice that the RESURRECTION
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on NIANIA, what are you afraid of?
And guess who avoided RESURRECTION stable the most? Believe it or not, it was BIG
COUNTRY. Anyone surprised? In a brave attempt, SORRY JUNK from BIG COUNTRY
challenged up 25 points to fight ABALONEA from the THE GOLDEN FISH stable. SORRY
JUNK perhaps got its just desserts, seeing as it beat ABALONEA and ended up with 76
recognition points.
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. Hearty mugs of ale were raised in
NIANIA today as HALF-TIME was bid farewell to a 10-6-0 warrior, with BETTY of BIG
COUNTRY standing silent and pensive. A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he
has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over. Consider well.
I like this place, NIANIA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? Well, I'm burning daylight here in NIANIA and I've a long
road ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in NIANIA again, farewell--
Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Baphomet -- Just to let you know; I really doubt ole Jan is going to run in Niania.
She hasn't played there in a good while, I believe. Anyway, if you want to catch
her, she is currently playing teams in 6, 21, and 28 that I know of. I believe she,
Doc Steele, and Saucy Jack are recruiting new teams in dm 6 so any new teams would
probably be more than welcome there. -- a Vendetta Cartel brother of hers
Jarck -- We should stop meeting like this. People are beginning to talk! -- Yellow
Pike
Toofless -- If you have no toofs, how did you manage to crack my shining shell? --
Abalonea, the middle word in buttons
Solitare -- Ah, there was only one of you, and I was beside myself! Good fight
anyway. -- Analira
Indeed yes, a very dangerous criminal he was! -- Nellistha
Comedy -- YOU laughed, but *I* did not. -- Lubaya
Sorry Junk -- Some people just don't understand the tao of buttons. It is not a
crippling flaw, as there are always zippers. -- Abalonea
28 January 2004
All -- I send out this invitation to all teams and managers. A new Alliance has been
formed. The Living Essences Alliance is being formed to join forces in an effort to
eliminate common foes and to help the joined warriors grow and learn to the best of
their abilities by offering suggestions and advice. It doesn't matter what arena
you're in, or if you're in another alliance already, as of today. This Alliance is
open to one and all! If you are interested in joining, please DIPLO me, or send a
personal ad to DM 93's newsletter. If you wish to join beyond March 2004, send a PA
to DM 82. Come join the fun! -- Dagan LifeGiver, mgr. Shadow Warriors (DM 93)
28 January 2004
This notice is to formally introduce our young alliance, CHAOS INC. We consist of
APEX, FLAGG, MATRIX, ASSAMITE, and now RUDE BUDDHA. If we aren't already there, we
WILL be coming to an arena near you soon! Hope to see you all at the ZALCON II.
4 February 2004
Greeting from Jhans, DM 36 -- In 2 turns the kLk will host our first annual "St.
Valentines Day Massacre" in Jhans, arena 36. (Kill Contest) The contest will begin
on turn 450. It will run for 10 turns. On turn 461 the winners will be announced.
There will be 3 separate categories, the team with the most kills, the alliance with
the most kills, and the warrior with the most kills. For the manager of the team
with the most kills a PRIZE of 10 ROLL-UPS will be rewarded (or $50 deposited into
his account). No need to declare yourself in the personals. If you are in DM 36,
you will be part of the contest whether you like it or not. We encourage as much
trash talk as you'd like. All teams, managers, and alliances invited. Please
contact Polarius (mgr. of Blitzkrieg) in DM 36 with questions. Or you can email me
at jamieptmo@hotmail.com. Good luck and see you in the sands. -- Polarius
