Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out RIZTAB to see what's new. The guys at HIGH JINKS like really pulled together to get a 4-1-0 this turn, moving up by 4. MVP award for TILLOUISA? SWEET MAGIC's proud of her after beating FLADRAKEEN OOSCH and getting 24 points. Talk about yer big time losers! SHADOW-BOX got smashed by MERINDA, and lost 14 points! The Duelmaster isn't going to stop just cause he's Number One! SPYMASTER TORRIC knows this. He was Dark Arena Challenged by the Duelmaster. This Duelmaster is like something else! SNAGGLE PUSS stopped SPYMASTER TORRIC dead in his tracks! I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos. Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right? ARENA FELINES was the most avoided team. Is a 620-458-60 record really that scary? Is there some deep dark secret why HELL-MART's been avoiding ARENA FELINES so much? Or is it just that they're too scared? Can SPIRITUAL GIFT's RIFT be more popular than me? He was challenged the most, but is that really the same? PIZZARRHEA is being unfair. It's challenged down 20 against SHORTHAIREDLONGTERM. I don't know why they let this stuff go on. (I'd better shut up) SHORTHAIREDLONGTERM is a real man! He was challenged by PIZZARRHEA, 20 points above, and BEAT it! Dark Arena, anyone? GRAYOLA 64-PACK must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. It TV challenged NOREEN. 9 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought GRAYOLA 64-PACK showed great skill and promise when it overcame NOREEN. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone gets killed. Not after four more fights. Like, who is this guy??? SNAGGLE PUSS gets sent to the Dark Arena, battles SPYMASTER TORRIC, and returns to tell of it!!! I bet ARENA FELINES manager is surprised! What a bunch of heartless! I couldn't believe how many people were snickering when DROMMARE killed BELLOTA. So she had a 5-4-0, that's no excuse! Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (DASTARDLY DAN vs. CAT TAGIOUS, that is.) Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.) I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. RIZTAB is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much! Its been really albendranius!

That Warrior was as chump-ass as 21 wit strikers come. They don't make 'em much chump-assier. Unfortunately the chaos for cash rate is extremely poor right now, so you'll escape the wrath of That Guy, who really wanted to tear you a new, you know. May your dreams be filled with horrible nightmares of your own death, and have a nice day! -- Nuln, mgr. of That Team All -- *Oooff* Beware what you wish for. The guildhouse has been deluged by BIG women seeking employment. And it's hard explaining to them why they aren't "big". It's not a size thing (well, up to a point, size 4 manageress? Ugh!) so much as it's an internal thing certain fighters have. She'll come and while she might or might not be BIG, she'll be "big". -- Jondeaux Dolly -- Let's put this straight, my popularity was so much more greatly reduced than yours. I started out higher, 2 hangers-on and a almost groupie. *shhhhhh-oot* The team left a wash-tub n' brush out fer me. Said I carried a stink that needed scrubbin off. <grin> -- Dan, theeeeee Win-nah!!! Garfield -- Thanks n' back at you. The Mill, ripper...oh well, plenty more where she came from. *Favor* in my star-crossed wanderings, I've developed a particular quirk. A real disliking for scum. Simply cannot abide them. Please pass the word. -- Jondeaux P.S. Not all that crazy about regular TPs, either. Although, during my travails I've encountered some of the little squirt variety which've been...interesting. Last adversary gottem-self an ex-rp, first time out. Couldn't hit the arena walls in 2 tries, buuuutttt.... Reveur -- We'll call that strategy "wax and wane"..."wail n' wain" Wish me luck on my raise. -- Wax Hostile Tom Smith -- That wasn't very NICE of you. Do you want it to stay winter all the time? -- Song of Summer Cat Man Don't -- You don't listen to your own advice, either, do you? -- Noreen Cat Man Do -- Do it to somebody else! -- Merinda Snaggle Puss -- Should I be honored by the title match, or embarrassed that you had it so easy? -- Tillouisa P.S. Good luck to you. Somnus -- (sigh) Me for a nap, I think. -- Nanette P.S. Too bad the Infirmarian didn't send me for several days bed rest, isn't it? That'd've fit right in. 10 January 2004 ZalCon2 Updates (1/9/04) The contest will be starting on the turn due February 23rd, 2004 and run for 20 turns. Only one team will be allowed for each manager in the contest, regardless of whether additional teams are announced as contest entries. No exceptions for any reason. The Style Master points should read that there is +1 point for beating a member of your own style even if the warrior is not registered for the contest. Rolling points for consecutive turns as Style Master means that your warrior gets the extra point every turn after the first 3 that he continues to hold the title. The points for Quality Wins should be clarified to read the winning warrior is ranked below by the number of recognition points needed for each bonus point at the start of the fight. For example, Warrior A (3-2-0, 17) beats Warrior B (4-1-0, 35) and receives 2 bonus points under Quality Win for the 18 point difference in the ranking. I believe that is all the clarifications for the moment, please feel free to email, diplo, call or write me with any other questions or concerns about the contest.
