SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly ZUKAL games. NORTHER caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested VASQUEZ and was awarded 19 points in
recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, NORTHER put down VASQUEZ,
causing her to lose 15 points of recognition in the process. Due to his absence and
inability to defend the throne, HOMESTAR has lost the title of Duelmaster. This time
victory fell to the grasp of the usurper. All hail STRONG BAD, Duelmaster of ZUKAL!
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 ZUKAL "art" is a word that has long
since passed from the language!
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena
there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in ZUKAL. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can I
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till
we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no
one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Homestar -- Ah, a title match for me. I wasn't up for it. -- Bisbee Blue
Vasquez -- Just for that, I won't take you fishing with me tomorrow. -- Fisher King
P.S. And I expect to see a heron, too. You're missing a treat.
Tight Jeans -- Just about melted my socks off there! Wow! -- Norther
Hudson -- Any thoughts on fishing? I know a fisherman has to have patience, but it
shouldn't take you more than a month to make up your mind. -- Bitterman
Sweet Cheeks -- I hardly knew where to look! -- Bluestocking
Otto X -- Dominating or not, we'll be glad to see you at any time. -- Jorja and Blue

Note -- We are still looking for additional teams in Arvat, DM 32. I still have a
number of good team rollups available FREE for whoever wants one.
Contact the Devil Advocates ASAP to join the fun! You can either reach me by
diplo or on the RSI site.
Also, whoever sent me the diplo with no name on it requesting a rollup /
information on how to get into Arvat, I'm embarassed to admit that the diplo slipped
out of my folder and was lost. Please just send me another one with your mailing
address and I'll get a rollup to you ASAP. Sorry about that!
