SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for ALJAFIR. MVP award for ERBIN FRORLIN?
MIDDLE WAY's proud of him after beating SAPHRONICUS and getting 18 points. Talk
about yer major upsets! SAPHRONICUS' match with ERBIN FRORLIN cost him a loss of 13
points! Like DARK ARENA's BANDIT PRINCE is sweating since he got Dark Arena
Challenged by Duelmaster NYZEIL OGLATA! This Duelmaster is like something else!
NYZEIL OGLATA stopped BANDIT PRINCE dead in his tracks! Is the Duelmaster really
being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these
really neat Spyreports can it? KINDRED OF KAOS was ALJAFIR's most avoided team. Is
there some award for that? Hhmph! What kind of warriors are STEEL WOLVES? KINDRED
OF KAOS, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an
invitation! ARTEMIDORUS must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He
challenged STELRA TIRINS. 8 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.)
I thought ARTEMIDORUS showed great skill and promise when he won victory over STELRA
TIRINS. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!! NYZEIL OGLATA returns from the Dark
Arena, maybe a "little upset" at his PHILANTHROPISTS teammates... Fight, fight,
fight. Is that all you guys can do?
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop.
Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Nyzeil Oglata -- We have probably mentioned that your name seems more like one of
OURS? Not MINE, of course, because the Evil Inputter JINXED me, but one of my
regrettable teammates. -- Straight Line
P.S. At least you're efficient, which is good. I didn't want to hang around here
all DAY, you know.
P.P.S. The bit about "a few days" in the Infirmary? Misdirection. Mere subterfuge.
I had...personal matters to attend to. If people believe I'm in the Infirmary, they
don't check to see where I REALLY am. There is an incredible lack of privacy in my
guildhouse.
P.P.P.S. Congratulations.
Saphronicus -- Are you SURE you aren't some kind of sap-sucking fungus? I could have
sworn...and then you seemed about to suck MY sap, and I'm not even a tree! Seriously
disconcerting, that was. Try not to do it again, hmm? I mean, sure, you're going to
win if we fight again, but I can (I hope) live with that. It's the whole sap-sucking
bit that gets to me. -- Wendol Varn the hopefully unsapped
Artemidorus -- Under the circumstances, you could have taught me more! I was paying
attention, except when you hit me in the stomach. -- Stelra Tirins
I had hoped to learn more from the Khalhums Dwarf, but dwarves are notoriously stingy
with their skills. (sigh) At least I won. -- Erbin Frorlin
Oh, gods, I'm just HELPLESS when a woman slides up and begins to whisper sweet
nothings in my ear...and then stabs me in the kidneys. I really don't like that. --
Vinn Wulf
Aim Obtuse Hammer -- The Curse of the Nameless God upon you, dense unbeliever! --
Mejandr, member in good standing of the Nameless Cult
Aim Better Hammer -- (snivel) -- Partiss, Honest (convicted) Thief
Aim Reduce Hammer -- Bwah-ha-ha. -- Terregolis, extremely Dangerous Criminal
Vinn Wulf -- You are so easy, so pathetic, that if you were of the true blood, I
would hesitate to harm you, thinking you a child. But since you are not...well, the
matter arranges itself. -- Lenislichi of Venjek, Concubine (the "venomous" bit is
base calumny)
Erbin Frorlin -- I saw you prying at me with your eyes, and don't think I didn't!
You were searching for the keys to my skills, weren't you? Humans have no sense of
property! Those skills are MINE. -- Dugald Hammerhand, Khalhums Dwarf, although I'm
actually from north of Vithicar, not Khalhums, and I could tell you tales about the
Khalhumsites that would curl your whiskers!
24 January 2007
The Council of Lords would like to propose a rule change in ADM and Primus. We
propose that Lord Protectors ranked "Grand Champions" and below (ADM) and "The Tower
Guard" and below (Primus) be allowed to fight in the Dark Arena. This would not
impact the top rankings or title match. Any managers who never got his fill or shot
at fighting Gateway monsters would have it as an option. We believe it might spark
some interest in the ADM/Primus realm for some managers. If interested, speak up in
the newsletters or on forums under the "rules changes" thread and let RSI know. This
could even be something to try for 12 months and then be re-evaluated. What say you,
managers of Ghea? -- The Icelord sends....

HDFA Mission Statement
"Show me the money!"
This is the battle cry of a newly formed collection of like-minded individuals:
The High Dolla' Free Agent$. We are not a tough guy alliance: No...we offer no
battle without reward. We search for victory and the prizes and accolades that
follow. We are motivated by winning and will freely use whatever means necessary to
obtain our currency. No stuffy rules, no mandates, no constitutions, no leaders,
only a few objectives:
1) Win as often as possible
2) Celebrate freely and revel in your victories; the more meaningless the
victory the more we celebrate. Highsiding and chest thumping are encouraged.
Ostentatious endzone celebrations with prop usage are encouraged, regardless of
fines, penalties, suspensions or arrest by local authorities. It is important to let
your opponent know how great you are; more importantly, you must let your own
alliance mates know how great you are.
This is a 1-up alliance, let the performance of your fellow Free Agent$ motivate
you. If a Free Agent wins a TV, win 2; if a Free agent wins a contest, win a more
prestigious one.
Current members of the HDFA include: CFH and Abraxis. Inquires can be directed
to: CFH/Rat Salad DM 47
