We meet again, Bonsur! I lost the throne last time when I inadvertently missed the turn. That was not the plan. This time I gain the throne by losing a fight. That was also not the plan. Well, not the losing part, anyway. As for the fight, I really am annoyed with the whole "too hotly engaged to draw a weapon" concept. Who decided that? Was it the same commission that gets to tell me I favor the whiffle? Shouldn't I get some say in that? I know enough not to go about punching someone's blade! Why did I bother to stick that war hammer in my belt anyway? It is frustrating, as I think I might have defeated Dremmel if my axe had not broken. But it did, and those are the breaks. Literally. And I did get the throne! So now let's see if I can get my paperwork in on time this time and defend my throne! Blades up! Bonsur! The Mauli Lama, Duelmaster of Bonsur SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly BONSUR games. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner! Witness how this week IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS went 4-0-1 to move up 4 in the rankings. ARTIE AWL caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested GENFUL and was awarded 25 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ARTIE AWL put down GENFUL, causing him to lose 14 points of recognition in the process. This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail YORKE, Duelmaster of BONSUR! Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out! Many and various are the arts of battle. In BONSUR "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in BONSUR these days is SHEWISH PICNIC. At least, most blades in town are looking to avoid them. Apparently the stalwarts of IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS 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. GANNUCK take warning! You have more than a few enemies in BONSUR. Give PARGEN credit for his courage. Did you note how he challenged PUTTY KNIFE despite the 26 point difference in their rankings? The TOLBIN'S BP stable will be up late tonight, for indeed it was PARGEN who claimed victory in the contest, ascending 24 in recognition! Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more than its fair share of red in recent times. My sources at TOLBIN'S BP stable claim they've never seen the guild bitterer. This as a result of the untimely demise of DELREAN. Beware RENALDO! GANNUCK must hold silent, for this week he was humbled in the arena by a successful Bloodfeud won by ATHELAS of TOLBIN'S BP. Hail ATHELAS for thy victory! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this! If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times already in BONSUR. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise are angered by the same thing only once.
