SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of NIANIA! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. In one of the week's more notable duels,
GNU BOOK put down HARKRANZ, causing him to lose 22 points of recognition in the
process. Although AMBEERDEXTROUS made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple
the reign of victorious CHARLIE HORSE. Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly
6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city NIANIA. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. 042909A is feared. This much I can say. If you didn't
look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find any of THE FUNNY FARM last
week. Busy avoiding 042909A? A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this
week, it seems that SKIDMARK BUG posted a TV challenge against the more highly
recognized KINTHIRA. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand SKIDMARK BUG won
victory over KINTHIRA. Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins.
In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in NIANIA. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can I
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till
we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no
one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
I don't know who was trying to send what, but hal received seventy-seven pages
of... something, some kind of format coding, I think, and I couldn't find any
text in it. Please, whoever you are, try sending plain text next time. -- the
Editor
Huh, no challenges, but apparently there HAS been some avoiding. That's good. I
like to see the tools being used. -- Jorja, skimming through the spy report
P.S. What do you suppose Snide means by "small history"?
Interesting, this time the fans like me and Charlie Horse. Are they trying to pair
us up? Do I want that? Hmm. I might not mind.... -- Lorinda
Ambeerdextrous -- We congratulate you on your invitation to the Isle. Don't let the
door hit you on the way out. -- the Golden Fish
We salute all the tourney participants, with special mention for the Muffin Man's
highly successful The Bunny God, Bold Mr. Wasabi, and Skidmark Bug. GOOD work. --
Jorja and the Golden Fish
Charlie Horse -- Well... it was fast. I think that's probably good, but I won't know
for sure until my head stops aching. -- Fredililla
Serpent2 -- Ugh, golem snakes! Who can handle them? Not me. -- Harkranz
Ambeerdextrous -- I console myself with the thought of your departure. -- Lorinda
Those Osksians should keep their Nobles home. But I suppose they sent him away to
prevent him breeding and lowering the general competence of the population. --
Kinthira
Rockin Hardplace -- My, you certainly are large! And a new face, what I could see of
it up there. Welcome to Niania. -- Uethinria
