I don't think it is a surprise that I again sit on this throne. There should be no Royal surprises. It is a birthright. It is my due. I shall leave you with one of my most famous moments.... "Life is but a walking shadow, a poor player who struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more. 'Tis a tale full of sound and fury, told by an idiot, signifying nothing." Clearly I am more than a wonderful gladiator. Clearly. Lady Macbeth SPY REPORT Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! He who laughs last didn't get the joke. Speaking of laughing at jokes, observe YAKUZA. Last week they got 0-0-0 to drop by 4! Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive observation?) as Z GLADIATORZ can attest... Say what you will about blind luck and dirty fighting, but BLOOD RITES will tell you 24-15-2 is nothing to laugh at... Practice pays for DWARF FIRE HAMMER, who pummelled HUSK, to pocket 17 points. HUSK certainly had a baffled expression on hers face, after losing to DWARF FIRE HAMMER and losing 15 points in the process! Well, Duelmaster LADY MACBETH Bloodfeuded LEVIATHAN's MARSHMALLOW. Is a 19-6-0 good enough? Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by MARSHMALLOW, of LEVIATHAN, who despite a 8-14-2 couldn't overcome ARKERS' Number 1. Word has it one team in ARKERS is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works. And how sociable are ARKERS' warriors? Come, let us see. Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in ARKERS avoid ACID FIRE HAMMERZ. As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of SMITHSONIAN, so did that sorry team shy from ACID FIRE HAMMERZ Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and FEORDIS INK is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't MIDDLE WAY 11 proud! FEORDIS INK found himself challenged by a warrior 23 below: NYTHIA. NYTHIA of PENUMBRAL MISTS kept hers wits as she overcame FEORDIS INK. Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Ponder the possibilities, ARKERS: LA PENTARCHIE has allowed TIMBER WALKER of NORTHERN BADLANDS to kill MORE MOORE unchallenged! Is there no honour left??? Justice was served as LADY MACBETH fought MARSHMALLOW in bloodfeud. Well done, SMITHSONIAN! Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! Leave me now, you base fools! My fingers tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for ARKERS?

Consider me peeled! -- Zippety (now mostly Doo Dah) Burps Fire Hammer -- You Cad. You will not get away with that. No. Killing an undefeated? Your boss is turning into an outright supporter of death in the arena. How uncouth! And to think we welcomed you to Arkers? -- The Z Man Morg Potts -- Thanks for being there for me. Somebody had to win from this motley team! -- Zinger Lady Macbeth -- When do MY guys get a chance at you? -- The Z Man Blackheart -- We continue on our trail to success. -- War Bond Skunk -- Whew! Who'd a thunk it? Your spray must not have been working. Thank the gods! -- Pearl Harbor Nythia -- Thanks for the dance. Perhaps next time I shall read you poetry? -- Lord Byron Ol' Griz -- Well, you gave it your all. It was a pleasure. -- Lady Macbeth Good bye to all; the great Royalty of The Isle calls. I shall answer. I shall most likely retire and pass the gauntlet to Hamlet or Othello. -- Lady Macbeth Blackstorm (the Manager) -- You are valued. We will await and welcome your return. -- Curator, Smithsonians Le Pentarque -- Nooooooooo! Not you?! Come on back. We are enjoying this. -- Curator Den/Big Lake Outcasts and All -- I know this is a Free Blades arena, but your 3-3-1 aimer downchallenging my 0-1-0 fighter is kind of lame, don't you think? I have no problem with managers challenging me, but if you are downchallenging me then expect massive downchallenges on my part against your team. It might not be the next turn, or the turn after that, but sooner or later you will be a victim. And once on my list, your team will remain there. -- Slade and Eternal Abyss For those interested in the most recent Consortium warriors "moving on"....

I'll take any win I get from you guys. -- Elixir Bull Frog -- And I thought you would be easy. -- Bruiser Lord Byron -- Or just the more experienced. -- Elixir Lord Byron -- There's only so much ducking and dodging a girl can do.... -- Nythia Ugly Kidd -- You thought YOU were ugly *wry grin*. Still, it served its purpose. -- Morngrym P.S. I apologize beforehand to Sun-Fe, as our bloodfeud is a bit unbalanced. Still, I'm not likely to kill you *shrug*. Fairy Fire Hammer -- I thank the gods that you're not exceptionally strong, otherwise I might be dead! Hard fought, Hammerling. -- Oniromancer Fatal Flaw ... awaiting reconstruction. -- Malborgia V A final salute to Lady Macbeth, Duelmaster. Somehow I don't think you'll be missed though *rueful laugh*. -- Michael Eldritch Bushido Master -- Well fought with Malborgia, so understand that I hold you no ill- will. Morngrym will attempt to establish honor's due with Sun-Fe, as he's a much "safer" fighter than my other two current choices. Besides, he's usually a good teacher. -- Michael Eldritch Zanzibar's Ghost -- Endurance may be your thing, but I prefer life to be mine *wince*. -- Morngrym P.S. Michael said he spotted you in the Double-X, so perhaps you're not REALLY dead. It's a thought. Farewell, Le Pentarque. You're not leaving elsewhere I presume. -- Michael Hammer -- Turn fee problems in No-Tourney; not intentional and I should be back now. -- Michael, mgr. Zeitgeist Sun-Ne -- Gotta watch out for that old "sun on the knees" problem. You can get the fiercest freckles! -- Indior Landis Timber Walker -- Damn. You just snuck up on me like a moving bush or something. One minute I was alone in the arena, the next minute this...walking tree or something is hitting me upside the head, and other places, and I'm losing the fight. Some days, it just doesn't pay to get up. -- Feordis Ink Lin Minmei -- Ah, er. (draws in the sand with his toe) Um. -- Imber Lack P.S. Dinner? Zinger -- Well, that's a zippity-do-debacle. -- Morg Potts Dwarf Fire Hammer -- Amazing! They actually have you listed as a dwarf! How did you do it? -- Kerbin Notts And that wraps up an oh-fer turn for us. Maybe we won't go home tonight, there's sure to be a lecture. -- the Middle Way Lady Huntsman and Lady Macbeth -- While you are both ravishingly beautiful, it is in quite different ways. We can't help noticing. -- Feordis Ink P.S. And our congratulations to Lady Macbeth, as well. Zippety -- Managers have no compassion. -- Morg Potts Unholy Terror -- I noticed that. -- Indior Landis Blackheart -- At least, not without mustard. -- Krbin Notts Kammerfel -- I'll even buy you a cup of coffee. -- the Politest Beggar 9 July 2007 I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately. If there are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good. So if you send me a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I have not gotten it (yet). If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com. If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos. We are working on this problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta P.S. If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
