I still haven't told Mom I'm writing Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... I talked to PHOENIX's manager before the fights. He said, "We're gonna do good." And look at this: 2-1-0! Psychic, or what! MVP award for SIGMA PHOENICIS? PHOENIX's proud of her after beating POLITE BEGGAR and getting 11 points. Talk about yer big time losers! BUNKER HILL got smashed by RADTEEF WAZGRIM, and lost 9 points! This Duelmaster is like something else! WILY GIT stopped M. CHARDINEE dead in his tracks! Who was the wiseguy that said ARKERS' Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Welcome Wench? Don't look at me! So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these really neat Spyreports can it? HOYT FOUNDATION was the most avoided team. Is a 172-170-15 record really that scary? Hhmph! What kind of warriors are BLOODY HAND CLAN? HOYT FOUNDATION, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation! What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone gets killed. Not after four more fights. Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do? Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Its been really albendranius!

Salute. -- Curator and The Smithsonians A 0-4? Not just an 0-4, but a 0-4-0-1?! I am humbled. -- Curator The Lumberjack, I am tired, and hurt, and dirty, and..... need a drink. Lotsa drinks! -- Bunker Hill Kyron Fleming, Buffalo Roams challenged you, despite the great difference in experience, and surely skill. Now he is dead, and THE born loser. At 11(+1)-14-11-17- 11-14-7 and still normal damage, he was doomed to be a born loser. I may not ever forgive you, but I shall greatly thank you for the very nice recruit who showed up at my door. -- Curator Luther Lockjaw, phbbbttttt! -- Appalacia All, Appalacia, and the new recruit, Constitution, will be our Smithsonian representatives at the Tempe Face. -- Curator Health. Humility. Honor. -- Curator and The Smithsonians Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and an amazing New Year to all! -- RSI LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS NU PHOENICIS was butchered by SPYMASTER in a 1 minute Dark Arena fight.

Our next winter FTF will be held in Tempe, Arizona, January 17-19, 2020. It will be held at our usual Embassy Suites Hotel in Tempe, Arizona (480-897-7444). Room rates are $179.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, which includes full cooked breakfast, complimentary manager's reception, free airport shuttle, free parking and free high speed internet.

The hotel reservation site is: http://tinyurl.com/RSIFTF64 This is prime season for Phoenix and the hotel tends to fill up quickly. The tournament info sheet is out and minioverviews are printing. We hope you're all looking forward to it and that we will see you there! HALLOWEEN TOURNAMENT UPDATE It has come to our attention that a warrior, Voodoo Toad 85-14776, was sent to the Dark Arena and slain in order to be classed as a Dead Challenger in this past Halloween Tournament. As this warrior is a Zombie, this was against the rules because immortal warriors may not challenge the Dark Arena. (An exception is granted so a warrior may challenge the Dark Arena on his very last turn after receiving an invitation to Advanced Duelmasters, so he can show his prowess with the Dark Arena monsters, but this may not be used as a method of classing in the dead tournament if he happens to die in the night fight.) To correct this injustice, we changed the fight result for all warriors who lost to Voodoo Toad to a win for that turn. This gave two warriors, Crazy 54 84-11494 of Crazy 88 15 and Sarokith 84-30929 of Dub O Dubs, an ending record of 8-3, which grants them Tournament Victor status and resurrection. We realize this is not a perfect solution but hope it will make some amends for the warriors who lost to this misclassed warrior. -- RSI
