SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, OSKSI? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, AESIR, since THE NUKES took
top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Of course, we're all terribly
impressed to see CARROT win a fight and gain 22 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, GOMER
beat THE GOALIE and THE GOALIE lost 3 points. You're breakin' my heart. LEFTISTS
BLOW challenged DEWEY for OSKSI's Title this turn, and guess what happened? And if
variety is the spice of life, OSKSI may be getting bland, as LEFTISTS BLOW stays top
dog in the city. The Elefont, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where
do they get this stuff? From OSKSI's trash dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. OSKSI, I am losing what little hope I had in you.
AESIR the most avoided team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And it looks
like THE CONFUSED avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers,
if you ask me. Hmph. DEWEY was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.
Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for OSKSI's
morgue. More variety. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
What does the OSKSI arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Just wait 'till next time I show
up here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll
need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

Frosty -- Ah, in the six hundreds, I see. Science and Technology. Er, shouldn't you
be a golem? Oh, but as a Dwarf, yes, I see...you DO technology. Yes. That fits.
Very good. Keep working hard, young fellow, and, as the saying goes, "I will follow
your future career with interest." -- Dewey
Gomer -- Curse it! I didn't want to fight you. I knew, just from a glance, that
your behavior would be... Not Hoyle!
P.S. You're not supposed to win. That's for ME.
Diane Mack -- (complacently) Women always seek me out. They know I've got a lot of
stuff to teach 'em. -- The Goalie
Diane Mack -- Smack him upside the head next time! -- Hearts
Ray Moran -- Is this some kind of joke? -- a furious Joker
Revjak -- My, you are a fine looking one! But...I expected to learn MORE from you.
Why did you withhold your skills? Was it something I said? -- Hearts

Invitation to Newbie Managers
by Hammer
As a Captain of the Vendetta Cartel, Hammer has recently dissolved the Vendetta
Cartel Crimson Ascension Family. Lady Martilyo and Rook are NO LONGER members of the
Vendetta Cartel.
The Vendetta Cartel is divided into "Families" under the leadership of Captains;
who have been appointed by the VC God Father known throughout the dueling land as
Master Darque.
Hammer is now the Captain of the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe and the veteran
manager extends an invitation for prospective membership as a Probate [ONLY 2 Probate
positions are available in the VC Tarantula Tribe at the present time!] to any Newbie
Manager who qualifies under the following conditions:
1. Newbie Manager MUST have Online Access for Email communications! [Hammer is
presently living in Qatar and Lieutenants Maximillian and Firehawk are living in
Canada; so Email Communication is a MUST for consideration!]
2. Newbie Manager MUST have the time and funds to create 2 new stables to be
placed in 2 separate Slow Arenas [the cost of running 1 stable in a Regular Arena!]
to actively participate on a monthly basis with the other 3 T-Tribe members of the
Vendetta Cartel!
3. Newbie Manager MUST have the DESIRE to be an Active Member of the Vendetta
Cartel as a Tarantula Tribe trainee aka Probate; developing his/her managerial skills
under the mentorship of Hammer and the other VC members; thus proving themselves
worthy to become Vendetta Cartel Lieutenants in the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe!
The Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe lives by the Feud; thereby prospective
Probates are forewarned that membership guarantees instant Friends and instant
Enemies!
Any prospective Probates who 1.) seek to improve their managerial
insights/abilities under the counsel of Hammer and other Vendetta Cartel members 2.)
desire to be active members of an Active Alliance that WILL NOT Dissolve in a Few
Months; building lasting friendships while enjoying Feuding with Common Enemies 3.)
who enjoy sending their gladiators to Tournaments and would strive to see their
manager name listed among the TV and TC winners in the Mailer Tourney Newsletters as
a member of the Vendetta Cartel MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
Send an Email to HammerDM@fastermail.com to introduce yourself and provide
Hammer with a short Bio of your managerial successes/failures and favorite/least
favorite fighting styles; with a listing of your active stable/stables for Hammer to
verify in the online newsletters.
Hammer will choose the 2 prospective Probates for membership in the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe on the basis of who he decides will be most suited [to
Hammer's purposes as the T-Tribe Captain!] from among those responding to this All
Arena Ad on a first response/first acceptance or rejection basis!
-- Hammer; Vendetta Cartel Captain/WordSmith and WeaponSmith of the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe
