SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon JHELUM, for I,
Novgorodny Vir, have returned! Those betting on MILLENIUM METAL lost their shirt, as
MILLENIUM METAL lost their fighting abilities: 0-3-0. Say what you will about blind
luck and dirty fighting, but BLACK & BLUE will tell you 61-47-3 is nothing to laugh
at... Practice pays for WHITE WORLDBENGER, who pummelled JUSTGIVEITUP, to pocket 17
points. SOGNATORE certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to
GEORGE MIKAN and losing 12 points in the process! WHITE WIND found out being
JHELUM's Duelmaster isn't all nuts and berries, receiving 4 challenges! Well,
Duelmaster WHITE WIND challenged PURPLE AND GOLD's MAGIC JOHNSON. Is a 14-6-1 good
enough? What can be a greater victory? MAGIC JOHNSON has taken his place as the
top, as JHELUM's new Duelmaster. Word has it one team in JHELUM is taking speech
lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the
mountaintops, so stand the warriors of DARK TOADS, alone and unchallenged. Like a
pup with its tail between its legs, THE MOTHERSHIP 5 scurried away from DARK TOADS.
Oh, the shame! EXCURSION found himself challenged by a warrior 22 below: KURT
RAMBIS. KURT RAMBIS of PURPLE AND GOLD kept his wits as he won victory over
EXCURSION. My love of complete Spyreports dictates that I note the mismatched fight,
GROTESQUE and SYNDICATE. Are DARK TOADS unwilling to engage in a fair fight? I
thought GROTESQUE showed great skill and promise when he was overcame by SYNDICATE.
All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Citizens of JHELUM,
be sure to settle your debts with SLIPKNOT of MILLENIUM METAL. He's relocating to
the Dark Arena and has other things on his mind! SPYMASTER in the Dark Arena wasn't
enough for KERRY of SOME BODIES. Maybe that certain serving girl(?) at The Dripping
Blade will be! Congratulations, SNOW FLEA. The manager of MILLENIUM METAL should
have sent THOUSAND FOOT KRUTCH to the Dark Arena for having a 7-5-0 long ago.
Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A
certain tavern in JHELUM would I avoid!
Do not think spyreporting in JHELUM is the highlight of my life. As the seasons
change, and the creatures of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave
this place. JHELUM, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at
The Dripping Blade. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

Traumer -- Once again, I commend you and your manager for making superb strategy
changes. Fortunately for me, it didn't work this time. What do you have for me this
turn? -- Assurnasirbanipal
Snow Flea -- Glad I could serve you! -- Deacon
Pericles -- The problem you posed me is one which will require a great deal of
thought. I'll get back to you. -- Problem Solver
Super Jacob -- My apologies for not acknowledging our fight last time. I was
somewhat distracted by other things. -- Pericles
Vagabond -- What he means is, our manager was at the dentist. Ugh. -- Dogface
White Thunder -- How DARE you lose to me? -- Dogface
Assur -- As you see, I've been sabotaged. -- Dogface the disgruntled
P.S. I guess I'll just have to get in line for "most regular arena turns before
graduating," then. But that takes so LONG. YEARS.
P.S. Okay, longest losing streak would also take years.
Problem Solver -- I don't seem to be having a problem at the moment, however. --

Hammer 500-Hammer Run for the Roll Ups
Hosted by Hammer
Niytyole Island DM 33 has dwindled to the point where as of T-482 [duedate
November 3, 2004] there were only 2 active stables listed with 3 inactive stables in
a once thriving and lively regular arena.
During the past 40+ cycles Hammer has been hosting the Hammer Run for the Roll
Ups in DM 33.
Thus far only the Ripper and Slasher categories have produced winners to claim
the 5 New Team Roll Ups Prize for being the first declared Style Master of their
respective categories to graduate.
Every contending stable has gone inactive for one reason or another, including
CASINO HAMMERZ, over the past several months.
Now DM 33 faces the harsh reality that if RSI chooses to close any arenas due to
little or no interest, Niytyole Island could very well head the list of endangered
regular arenas!
In an effort to preserve his beloved island, Hammer is announcing the
continuation of the Hammer Run for the Roll Ups; combined with the Hammer 500 which
will conclude both contests on T-500 [duedate July 13, 2005] should DM 33 continue to
remain open in the coming months.
Attention Hammer Runners!
The Hammer Run is for 0 FE Basic Arena Warriors ONLY. Participants MUST Be
Declared in the P-ads On or Before their First DM 33 Basic Arena Fight to Qualify as
a Hammer Runner! Winners of Each Category will receive 5 New Team Roll Up Gift
Certificates mailed from RSI courtesy of Hammer! [On the condition that they
Graduate on or before T-500; see amended rules below!]
The following Style Master categories remain open with a listing of how many
declared contestants are still entered and their W/L recognition record at the time
of their disappearance from the Hammer Run competition:

Roll Ups Gift Certificates mailed from RSI courtesy of Hammer! Gift Certs will be

SHOULD RSI CHOOSE TO CLOSE DM 33 PRIOR TO T-500 ONLY THE HIGHEST ACTIVE DECLARED
STYLE MASTER CONTESTANTS WILL BE AWARDED TWO (2) GIFT CERTS AND ALL OTHER PRIZE
CATEGORIES WILL BE DECLARED NULL AND VOID BY HAMMER!!!!!!!!!
The purpose of this contest is to restore DM 33 to a lively and entertaining
arena!
Hammer is willing to foot the Prize bill in a last ditch effort to save Niytyole
Island from deletion if RSI and the Gladiatorial Commission decide that more arenas
need to be closed due to lack of participation and interest.
Should this effort fail to spare DM 33 from deletion, then Hammer is prepared to
transfer CASINO HAMMERZ to another arena if Niytyole Island is closed by RSI and the
Gladiatorial Commission.

available. The rules are simple. The scoring is simple. The updates are live. If
you would like to participate, simply get a team ready in Talcama in the next month
