SPY REPORT It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty, and despair! BATTERY successfully staved off a grab for the roses by M. CHARDINEE of MALCORN. Does MALCORN have no one talented enough to dethrone him? So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me. And how sociable are MALCORN's warriors? Come, let us see. Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the lion, so did the "warriors" in MALCORN avoid STARBASE 5. The warriors of STARBASE 5 found their efforts at combat frustrated as TRIPLE CROWN apparently had more important things to do than fight. Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and MORTIKHAN is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't STARBASE 5 proud! CITATION challenged MORTIKHAN! Who says TRIPLE CROWN are just a bunch of wimps! CITATION of TRIPLE CROWN kept his wits as he bested MORTIKHAN. My love of complete Spyreports dictates that I note the mismatched fight, CHARISMATIC and FOREVER. Are TRIPLE CROWN unwilling to engage in a fair fight? I thought CHARISMATIC showed great skill and promise when he lost to FOREVER. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after life! Like a tattered, worn-out, faded, out-of-fashion garment cast out to rot, PHANTOM LORD of STARBASE 5 has been summarily sent to the Dark Arena. Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting! All good things must come to an end. More important duties call me. Do not despair! I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BATTERY 2293 12 3 0 99 STARBASE 5 (263) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME CITATION 3925 15 13 0 92 TRIPLE CROWN (382) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME LIL E.

PHANTOM LORD 4613 5 9 0 STARBASE 5 263 BANDIT PRINCE 458 501 NONE PERSONAL ADS Charismatic -- Got interesting in the end there, didn't it? -- Forever Mortikhan -- Ouch. Damn. I mean, darn. I had my mind on other things, and you just completely blindsided me there. Well done. -- Wooden Arrow Wow, somebody's been feeding the Veteran Mercenary meat! He was really mean out there today. -- Stalking Horse P.S. Unless he's mean because all his kinsmen, Dwarves to a man, make fun of him for his freakish height. Huh, the Userous Merchant is a Karnhorn. I would have guessed that anyway. They're all alike, those Karnhorns. Grasping and unprincipled. -- Greengrove The Ambitious Guard came to the fight drunk. I like it when he does that. -- Oakleaf Phantom Lord -- You're quite good looking for a phantom. I didn't expect that. -- Mayflower P.S. I'm accustomed to seeing handsome as a goes-with for tall, of course. Just because *I* am short doesn't mean I'm not a good Shew. I just haven't got my final growth yet. P.P.S. I keep TELLING Jorja I should train my SZ, but she won't do it. Zeus -- Yep, Jorja of, among many other teams, the Middle Way. If your choices are 17 and 93, go with 17, as 93 is only for beginning managers. -- Jorja (LiviaATreality.com if you want to try to reach me that way) P.S. Sultan does run in Kolact, if he doesn't mention it himself. Sir Aglio is the team. Mortikhan -- (turn 499) Sorry I bled all over you. Next time, perhaps our roles will be reversed. -- Charismatic Forever -- 18 minutes. Sheesh! You call that, forever? -- Charismatic Battery -- You're SUPERCHARGED! How you done that? -- Lil E. Tee, needing a new one (battery, that is) 15 December 2004 The Company of Brothers Alliance would like to welcome Azereth as our newest member. We are sure he will be an asset to both our alliance and the dueling community! -- Baphomet, Co-Founder T.C.B. 24 December 2004 Due to requests, the Turf War IV will be postponed until turn 225 (approx May/June 2005). Sorry about the inconvenience. -- Baphomet, host of TW 4 12 January 2005 On Jhans turn number 476 (due on Feb. 16, 2005) the Second Annual kLk St. Valentine's Massacre Kill Contest will begin. The rules are simple; the team with the most kills on the last turn wins. Last year's winner was Shocking Toad. Can he repeat? Could DOOMcorps crush all challengers? Will the kLk prevail? Or will you be the independent manager to show that alliances aren't all that? Come on to Jhans and let's find out! Prizes are: 1st. Renaming of a Dark Arena monster and five roll-up certificates or $25.00 deposited in your account. 2nd. Renaming of a Stand-In monster. Come on and celebrate the Delarquan way! Azrael LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS PHANTOM LORD was viciously butchered by BANDIT PRINCE in a 3 minute Dark Arena fight. LIL E. TEE demolished STALKING HORSE in a popular 1 minute one-sided Challenge melee.

GREENGROVE was vanquished by DANGEROUS CRIMINAL in a 1 minute uneven duel. MAYFLOWER defeated DANGEROUS CRIMINAL in a 1 minute duel.
