FILING FEE of BASH BROS LAWYER (Assurnasirbanipal) SPY REPORT The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon NIANIA, for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! THE GOLDEN FISH posted a nice gain, to come in 2nd. Everybody loves a winner... THE RUNAROUND had cause to celebrate, after ANSWER PACK got 8 points by beating PETER NETLEY. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 6 points to SAM THE WHALE. (Discrete enough, HARDY BART?) Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by OOZING MY MIND, of U PAY I SLAY 2, who despite a 11-4-0 couldn't overcome NIANIA's Number 1. Word has it one team in NIANIA is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life! My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of THE RUNAROUND, alone and unchallenged. The warriors of THE RUNAROUND found their efforts at combat frustrated as YELLOWSTONE YOGIS apparently had more important things to do than fight. Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and ARCHED EYELID is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't THE RUNAROUND proud! BRAD PENNY challenged ARCHED EYELID! Who says YELLOWSTONE YOGIS are just a bunch of wimps! BRAD PENNY of YELLOWSTONE YOGIS kept his wits as he was overcame by ARCHED EYELID. Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after life! Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! All good things must come to an end. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my control, I must take my leave of this place. NIANIA, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at Jim's Tap Room.

Nobody told me being duelmaster meant scrubbing out the Hot Seat. It was things like this that had me leaving home! Cheese Louise! -- Pikestave Answer Pack -- What were you DOING here? The upholstery is in tatters. -- Pikestave Arched Eyelid -- I hope that darned eyelid FALLS OFF. -- Peter Netley the totally annoyed Mike Piazza -- What do I know from dwarves? -- Sam the Put-Upon Whale Hardy Bart -- So you cost me four points. Big deal. If Jorja would get my NAME fixed, things might be different. -- THE Haddock P.S. Not that I think *I* am FISHY. Where does she get off with that name? Depp -- How can you be anti-butter? You must be DEMENTED. -- Butter the Best Oozing My Mind -- I hope your insurance expires! -- Layamon Harish, Insurance Agent General Pattern -- Yeah, and I don't LIKE this pattern. Time to CHANGE it. -- Doland Sork, Captured Orc du jour LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS GARY was butchered by CLARENCE S. VOLE in a crowd pleasing 1 minute Dark Arena fight. BOB was murdered by MOUNTAIN TROLL in a 1 minute Dark Arena melee. BRAD PENNY was savagely defeated by ARCHED EYELID in a 4 minute Challenge fight. PIG'S FEET was bested by BUTTER THE BEST in a 1 minute Challenge fight. PIKESTAVE defeated OOZING MY MIND in a crowd pleasing 1 minute master's Title match. PETER NETLEY was vanquished by ANSWER PACK in a 1 minute brutal mismatched fight. MIKE PIAZZA bested GENERAL PATTERN in a popular 1 minute competition. HARDY BART was unbelievably bested by SAM THE WHALE in a 1 minute melee. HEAD CHEESE defeated GWAR in a action packed 1 minute duel. TEH HADDOCK defeated DEPP in a 1 minute fight.
