SPY REPORT Well, what are you looking at, NIANIA? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see BIG BIRD win a fight and gain 15 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, UETHINRIA beat GNU RECRUIT and GNU RECRUIT lost 6 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, NIANIA may be getting bland, as CHARLIE HORSE stays top dog in the city. Jim's Tap Room, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From NIANIA's trash dumps? Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys. NIANIA, I am losing what little hope I had in you. SERPENTS HOLD the most avoided team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And it looks like THE FUNNY FARM avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's see if anyone's dead or dying. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one. There's got to be a better place in NIANIA to get a drink than Jim's Tap Room! Any suggestions? Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of NIANIA. I feel much better now.

Birds eat bugs! -- Big Bird Which may explain why birds are weird. Gnu Recruit -- I don't have my bionic implants in yet. -- Robot Chicken Novgorodny Vir, a humble servant? As if! Four more Dark Arena deaths. This town is getting fierce! Or at least some of the arena managers are, the town was always fierce. Go, Niania! Serpent2 -- Ask me if I care? Since I'm leaving, what do I need with wins? Good luck to you, and all that kind of stuff. -- Fredililla P.S. Actually, I'm not going to the Isle, I'd just be one second-rater among thousands. But I'm also not going to stay here in this damned swamp. I think... Jhans, maybe. I'll start a restaurant. Y'all are invited, but that doesn't mean a free meal. Maybe a one-time discount. Fang -- I suppose it's the "graduation syndrome" thing. Win, lose, die, it doesn't matter to me today, so I slack off. Which is not to belittle your effort, mind. -- Lorinda, who plans on buying shares in a winery near Cliffhome and selling to Fredi's restaurant Gnu I Knew -- The fans have made their allegiance clear: they like me better than you, even though you won. I give them a better show, not to mention a free beer now and then. -- Harkranz Stupid Guns -- And luck is ALL it was, trust me on this. -- Kinthira P.S. And watch out my fans don't mug you in a dark alley. Fighting a Convicted Thief is kind of low, but at least *I* won my fight. -- Uethinria LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS BYE was butchered by HIGH ELF in a 1 minute Dark Arena fight.
