SPY REPORT
Hail NIANIA! Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for your
deeds. And let's see, KESTRATLAK fought VETERAN MERCENARY and gained 17 points and
contributed to THE GOLDEN FISH's 2-3-0. GULBY has lost to KUNG-FU MASTER, falling 16
points, while helping make THE GOLDEN FISH a 2-3-0 turn. Defending his title for
another turn, HORMONAL GROWTH kept THE GOLDEN FISH's warrior, GALLORDIN, from
claiming the throne. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable
sources that Jim's Tap Room uses trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle!
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. WIDE WORLD OF... has cause to stand
tall, as they were NIANIA's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team
to beat. And avoiding WIDE WORLD OF... more than any other team we find WIDE WORLD
OF.... NIANIA, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?
A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once. Wise men know this to
be true. We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their enemies.
You know who you are; and it's considered rude.
I like this place, NIANIA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets
to paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Hormonal Growth -- Ah, that's, yes, I think that's good. You won't write "a few
words from the top," but YOUR manager won't care, and I'm out from under that
pressure. Out from under a winning record, too, but what else is new, eh? A losing
record can be a comfort, if your manager isn't one of those gung-ho, "Send him to the
Dark Arena!" types. -- Gallordin
P.S. I see that this time around, your growth was in your brains. One of the best
students I've had.
P.P.S. Too bad this is a six-gladiator arena and five of them are us. My teammates,
lucky dogs that they are, got stuck with standbys.
I don't know about this "stuck with" business. Yes, we all fought standbys this
time, BUT we went four and oh doing it, and if we should happen to write the standbys
some personal comments, they'd quite possibly write some back. Yeah, I know, there's
"thrilling" and then there's "exchanging personals with standbys," and never the
twain shall meet. What the heck, there are worse problems in life. -- Gulby for the
rest of the Golden Fish
Korvoskol Turo, Veteran of Many Wars -- Thank you for taking the time to duel with
me, and for the one skill you deigned to teach me. -- Gulby
Sanardo Guiliotto, Captain of Guards -- Always a pleasure to deal with one of your
boys who needs a lesson in manners. -- Grond
P.S. Which one was this? He looked like he might be new.
Sedmon Var, Merchant and Moneylender -- Why no skills? I figure I earned 'em. --
Kestratlak
Biff Mugg, Late of Mordant -- And almost late for the fight! You might want to get
an alarm clock. -- Goldina
