SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly KOLACT games. Former top team THE FELLOWSHIP was
unseated this week as SIR AGLIO moved up from 3rd ranking to take the top spot with a
4-1-0 record for the round. Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the
corner! Witness how this week WAY OF THE SWORD C3 went 1-1-0 to move up 4 in the
rankings. My praise to SIR AGLIO for their 4-1-0 week this time out. Indeed, it was
a skillfully fought round deserving of notice! SIR COPHAGUS caught the eye of many
in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and was
awarded 16 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, DEAGOL
put down QUO VADIS, causing him 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 IVAN MASHMINAPLP himself. Not for nothing has IVAN MASHMINAPLP
in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his
combat skill yet again. 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!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city KOLACT. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. THE FELLOWSHIP is feared. This much I can say. Apparently
the stalwarts of SPRINGBORN are catching the bulk of jests down at the challenging
board for their large share of the avoids.
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins.
In the arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a maul is a
different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Butterbur -- Good challenge, bad result...there'r other weapons. Bigger weapons...
slower weapons. -- Karl
Tree Beard -- What happened, O Bearded One? Did I miss the hotdog roast? -- Melody
Sir Broke Stoker -- I'm feeling devastated n' you is poking fun. By Jing! I'll be
dishin it up next go round. -- Syd Tubular
Mr. Noble -- S'a pretty good tail whipping. I could'a done better if'n I was you,
but hey, we might meet again. -- Sadie
Frodo -- No, no, NO. That is NOT how you do it--all that stooping and hunching over
and whispering "precious, precious." That's a DISTRACTION, and you don't NEED
distractions in the arena. Er, not that *I* mind, actually. -- Estrella
Deagol -- Yes, well, I didn't really MEAN that about you should have been strangled
at birth. It's just the kind of thing one says when exasperated. Nothing personal.
-- Actaon
Quip -- Oh, I see. Quips are short. I suppose a Quote would be a Shew? -- Moonday
Bulma -- You're doing this to me on purpose, aren't you? You're JEALOUS, because I'm
cool and charismatic, and you're just...blah. Well, HA. I shall overcome. See if I
don't! -- Falling Star
Melody -- Oh. -- Inquiring Minds
Fellow (Kolatians), (Kolactites), (Kolagmites) -- I regret to inform you all that I
will be temporarily incapable of managing my two teams here due to a long-awaited
trip to my home country, Belgium, this fall. Yes, it is true. I will have my
warriors on maintenance for several turns while I tend to non-Alastarian business now
long neglected. I promise to pipe up in the personals upon my return. Good dueling!
-- Sultan
Have a most excellent trip! -- Ed.
Estrella -- Awww..., I'm touched! Let up hope I live up to that level of celebrity-
ism(?). -- Sir Broke Stroker
