(turn 269): DON CORNBEEFLEON of MEAT YOUR MAKER (Crip, mgr.) SPY REPORT Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the clash and bustle of the weekly BONSUR games. Former top team BEACH BABES was unseated this week as SHEWISH PICNIC moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot with a 4-1-0 record for the round. My praise to SHEWISH PICNIC for their 4-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! DRAGON FRUIT caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and was awarded 17 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, MAULI LAMA put down MAIDEN HAIR PASTA, causing her to lose 7 points of recognition in the process. As is fitting, the most sought after warrior on the challenge boards this week was none other than Duelmaster ATHELAS himself. Although PUTTY KNIFE made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious ATHELAS. Heed this! A seer has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or 7! Many and various are the arts of battle. In BONSUR "art" is a word that has long since passed from the language! BONSUR, city of gladiators! Mighty among the names of thy guilds is TOLBIN'S BP, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the weekly duels. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part of last week avoiding TOLBIN'S BP. Indeed it was SENTINELS. What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his foe's mortality? 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 - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ATHELAS 6334 11 5 1 125 TOLBIN'S BP (587) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -HENRI 5062 16 6 0 132 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) BALBOA 6245 24 18 0 110 SENTINELS (122) GANNUCK 6296 16 8 1 107 SENTINELS (122) -ROSE 6139 9 3 1 100 DEMONIC FURY (573) BIG BAD DADDY JR 5882 14 12 0 99 WESTNMAFIA (551) PUTTY KNIFE 6313 10 8 0 94 TOOL SHED (262) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GENFUL 6332 14 5 1 89 TOLBIN'S BP (587) MAULI LAMA 6292 13 12 0 87 SENTINELS (122) PARGEN 6331 9 10 1 79 TOLBIN'S BP (587) -YORKE 6040 8 3 1 79 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) ARTIE AWL 6327 12 6 0 75 TOOL SHED (262) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FLAPJACK 6304 11 1 0 64 SHEWISH PICNIC (580) SURFIN' SARA 6279 11 23 0 59 BEACH BABES (309) MAIDEN HAIR PASTA 6221 9 5 0 58 SHEWISH PICNIC (580) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -TEVEZ 6379 4 0 0 51 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) WAVIN' WANDA 6346 11 7 0 50 BEACH BABES (309) OMA BRELLA 6350 9 8 0 49 BEACH BABES (309) -RENALDO 5933 7 7 1 41 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) SUMMER SUNNE 6345 8 11 0 40 BEACH BABES (309) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CANNED SAVRADESE 6311 3 4 0 39 SHEWISH PICNIC (580) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -SCOOTER 5975 2 4 0 28 WESTNMAFIA (551) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME DRAGON FRUIT 6371 2 3 0 23 SHEWISH PICNIC (580) CREAMED MALCORN 6394 3 0 0 20 SHEWISH PICNIC (580) -BUZZSAW 6206 2 2 0 20 DEMONIC FURY (573) JADARAS 6381 4 3 0 19 TOLBIN'S BP (587) CHARLIE TUNA 6382 4 5 0 17 BEACH BABES (309) -FROGLE ROCK 6376 2 0 0 15 BATTLE FROGS 12-13 (589) BOLON CHUK 6372 3 5 0 14 SENTINELS (122) -DROGBA 6378 3 1 0 14 IMPORTED FOOTBALLERS (396) -LEFT LANE 5981 1 1 0 14 WESTNMAFIA (551) -ROLFE 6355 0 1 0 12 CAVALIERS (588) -STONEWALL 6017 2 2 0 8 WESTNMAFIA (551) -DANTE 6352 1 1 0 8 CAVALIERS (588) ALLESSANDRA 6401 0 1 0 1 SENTINELS (122) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.
