SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in MALCORN this turn, and let's start
with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the difference, as
GREENWARDENS is pushed out of top team by DARK CREATION, who came from 3rd with a
4-1-0 this turn. The STARBASE 5 guild has had a 3-1-0 turn and deserves to be
watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's
see, QUASIL fought BET TWICE and gained 13 points and contributed to TERMINUS' 2-3-0.
WIND RIDER has lost to BOSS, falling 11 points, while helping make GREENWARDENS a
2-3-0 turn. The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and SOMNAMBULANT
remains MALCORN's top warrior for another turn. Can someone confirm a rumor for me?
I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at Drake's Barbecue until
they win. Maybe?
Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.'
Inscrutable, but true. DARK CREATION has cause to stand tall, as they were MALCORN's
most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And guess who
avoided DARK CREATION stable the most? Believe it or not, it was TERMINUS. Anyone
surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that MIYAMOTO from TERMINUS was MALCORN's
most challenged warrior this turn. In a fit of brilliance or of stupidity (hard to
say sometimes), AVERY challenged WENDIGO today, facing a 49 difference in
recognition. Sad to say, AVERY lost to WENDIGO, and the attempt ended up costing
AVERY 1 recognition points.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? Is it really true that MALCORN has more dishwashers per capita that
fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
I like this place, MALCORN, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.
Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until you see my quill in MALCORN again,
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Red Bird -- No thanks, I'm still recovering from our last fight. -- Avery
Wind Rider -- That played out almost exactly like our first fight. -- Avery
Bet Twice -- Guess I had that comming. I squeaked past you our last few times. But
with all you've taught me I'm going to have to go for number four. -- Quasil
ISITWALENGCENGCE -- That was for Vorn, even if he died before I got a chance to fight
with him. -- Varick
Thistledown -- I told you I'd get you next time. And no, you don't look Shewish. --
Morgue
Malcorn -- I have military responsibilities on a distant world, so I may have a hard
time supervising my stable for the next 6-18 months. They may end up fighting every
other turn. -- Carick, Manager of Terminus
Avery -- Drat, there go I, sliding into the deeps of a losing record. I am told by
my teammates that I may never recover from this, but I will not despair. Something
good may yet happen to me.... -- Wind Rider
Otherworld -- (shaking head sympathetically) Those critics! They have no judgment,
only power. -- Mossrock
Somnambulant -- Dream on. -- Redbird
Avengelina -- Lady, you need to figure out when to quit. There was no need for you
to wear yourself to SUCH a frazzle, you know. You could have lost as easily in half
the time. -- Stump
Morgue -- And so you did, but I bet if I'd gotten my proper race change--I'm much too
short to be a Shew--things would have been different! -- Thistledown, incorrigible
dreamer
Our congratulations to Somnambulant, leaving at last. They say the Isle is a good
place to sleep. Go for it. -- Jorja and the Greenwardens
Lord Protector Somnambulant -- Check in at the Malcorn Embassy on the Isle and
they'll give you some chitties for free drinks around Talahya. -- Arenamaster Landon
