SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly OSKSI games. Warriors--remember that glory waits
always around the corner! Witness how this week NAUGHTY ANGELS went 3-2-2 to move up
5 in the rankings. Did only my eyes note the 4-1-0 record which GAMES LIBRARY
managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw challengers!
KORLEEN MAUR caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully
bested GRUNT and was awarded 27 points in recognition. Due to his absence and
inability to defend the throne, ULDI SHOON has lost the title of Duelmaster. This
time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail BIG BROTHER, Duelmaster of
OSKSI! Would you believe that over half of the old women in OSKSI seem to feel that
they could fight better than you gladiators?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In OSKSI "art" is a word that has long
since passed from the language! My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in
OSKSI these days is SORCERY COVENANT. At least, most blades in town are looking to
avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of FRAT PARTY BLOWOUT are catching the bulk of
jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Mighty
fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. FINCH'S ART take warning!
You have more than a few enemies in OSKSI. A match that raised a few eyebrows at the
games this week, it seems that SOLDIER 2 posted a challenge against the more highly
recognized DELON LUROST. The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand SOLDIER 2 beat
DELON LUROST. Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Dark alleys may hide both secrets and
assassins. In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
The girls are as pretty in OSKSI as ever I remembered them....and the fighters
as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till next we
meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different
story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Uldi Shoon -- If that was an input error, it served you well. Perhaps you have found
your favorite? And I thank you for taking the title away from me, even though I
really do need a couple of wins here. Being the duelmaster is just too conspicuous,
rather like having a target painted on my armor. My preferred armor decoration is a
camouflage pattern. -- Delon Lurost
P.S. But you might want to train your SZ.
P.P.S. Does your team name imply, correctly, that sorcery was used in achieving
victory? Inquiring Minds want to know.
Finch's Art -- Look, we've been through this. I'm no art critic, but I have strong
opinions, and you don't fit my definition of "Wow, that's great!". Every time I look
at you, I have this urge to clean my glasses. -- Lorins Peln
P.S. And I don't even WEAR glasses!
Spaghetti -- Did you know that forty-eight percent of all pasta sold in this country
is spaghetti? And an equal amount is (shudder) macaroni. That shows a great lack of
imagination, don't you think? Not to mention that you remind me unpleasantly of
worms stranding on the sidewalk when rain turns to sudden hot sun. -- Lorille Voth
P.S. Pallid and squishy. At least try to come out al dente!
I really tried to understand what the Cult Member was talking about, and I think,
maybe.... No, it slips away when I try to put a finger on it. But there seems to be
something, some core of...meaning? Value? I just don't know. But-- No, I just
can't talk about it. You'll have to try it yourself. -- Kelorinso Vhu
Retsoor -- I just hate it when people wake me up at the first crack of day and then
stand there LOOMING over me and making an awful racket. Figuratively, or perhaps
metaphorically, since you weren't in our guildhouse at all, and none of my teammates
picked up on your intrusion, apparently. Which is the pits, because it means they
won't help me GET you. -- Korleen Maur
Our congratulations to Uldi Shoon. -- Jorja and Games Library
