SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon ZUWAYZA, for
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! The boys at FUNKY FOLK left the arena dejected,
after being kicked out of the top spot by WALI'S FINEST. Good show! Those betting
on TEAM CHAOS lost their shirt, as TEAM CHAOS lost their fighting abilities: 0-5-0.
What's a move up by 3 you ask? (alright, maybe you didn't ask) Cause for
celebration, according to TAHAHN HAH. THE MAGNIFICENT MAGS had cause to celebrate,
after BLOOD SPORTS got 24 points by beating WHITE CHOCOATE. WHITE CHOCOATE certainly
had a baffled expression on hers face, after losing to BLOOD SPORTS and losing 16
points in the process! Like a flirtacious debutante, ZUWAYZA's Duelmaster CARY YON
found herself the woman of the hour, being "invited to dance" 2 times! The arena was
more crowded than usual this time, as AURORA faced ZUWAYZA's Duelmaster. CARY YON
successfully staved off a grab for the roses by AURORA of TEAM CHAOS. Does ZUWAYZA
have no one talented enough to dethrone her? So who was the warrior seen charging
into immovable walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
And how sociable are ZUWAYZA's warriors? Come, let us see.
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
The audience gave a nice round of rasberries to TOPO GIGIO of TEAM CHAOS, for
expiring in such an ungraceful fashion. 4-8-0, indeed! Ask not a spymaster for
counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious
stupor.
All good things must come to an end. More important duties call me. ZUWAYZA, I
leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Drunken Ox. 'Til
next time-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Matarse Fury -- Furious indeed, but the best, or as it might be most furious, racing
carriage is less than ideal once one gets off the ground. And the whole IDEA of
going fast is to get off the ground. There is NOTHING to compare to flight. --
Flight Journal
P.S. In fact, I consider that all earlier forms of racing were merely a striving
toward flight.
Tippy -- I feel you should be investigated for...um, something...yes, I know! For
skill-theft! You have a positive LUST for skills, and the Public has a Right to Know
about this. -- Times
P.S. A reporter and sketch artist will be over directly.
Finesse -- There is neither room nor value to finesse when one engages in... Blood
Sports!
P.S. And gladiating IS a blood sport, if properly done.
Caramel -- I'd offer you an ad in this week's flyer, but one needs no artificial aids
to move the likes of you. Splendid, utterly splendid, even when it sticks to my
teeth. -- Nifty Nickel
Pete Moss -- Huh, you had to be a SPOILER, didn't you? The only loss on our team
(which, the other four wins, amazes me totally), and *I* had to have it. I cannot
say this fills me with enthusiasm, and consider you a useless product. So there! --
Hot Rod II
P.S. Although I suppose of we enroll a Better Homes & Gardens...no, the name's too
long, well, how about Organic Gardening? Anyway, someone like THAT might just love
you all to pieces. Gardeners are strange.
What, Stratus dead? How will I work on my Instrument Flying without Stratus? --

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
