SPY REPORT
Good afternoon, my darlings! It is so good to see you once again at the
gladiatorial games in Seam. It is such a lovely time of the year. The tourists will
be coming in droves soon for our glamorous hot springs. It gets crowded at times, so
you better make any necessary reservations sooner rather than later. We had an
action-packed turn, so let's get to the action!
We had a rarity last turn with our Duelmaster. Able Baker Charlie took the
throne and did not receive his invite to the Isle, so the rarity was we had a bonafide
title defense taking place! It has been a rarity of late, so let's enjoy the small
victories. Minnesota Jones issued the challenge and was awarded a shot at the title.
It took him 3 minutes, but Minnesota Jones is our new Duelmaster! Congrats to him, and
we get to see another title defense next turn since Minnesota Jones did not receive an
invitation to the Isle of the Eye. Most of the challenger champions have been around
as long as Jones, so there will be many trying for the throne.
The most avoided team for turn 49 was Darque Knights. They were avoiding most by
I'm Not Eggbert. This appears to be a common pairing in this category. The most
challenged warrior was Snozzle from Huckle's Cats. Ledaig of Thirsty Thugs got his
challenge through to Snozzle. I can also report that Ledaig was victorious over poor
Snozzle in a 3 minute fight.
I want to give a cordial welcome to Weirding Ways. Thanks for joining us in
Seam, we hope your stay is long and prosperous. Also, I'd like to welcome back Nomad
with his Phantom Regiment crew.
There was only 1 non-Dark Arena death this turn. Aery Shine of Darque Knights
matched up with Mephistceratops from the Devil Dinosaurs guild. It was a 2 minute
match between these young warriors (boy did it show!), and Aery Shine killed his
opponent. The Devil Dinosaurs were also involved in our single bloodfeud match this
turn as well. Terror Blizzard feuded Barnabus Crow of I'm Not Eggbert. Terror
Blizzard took 4 minutes, but he was able to avenge his fallen teammate.
I'm Not Eggbert remains the top team, while Darque Knights make a big jump to 2nd
after a 4-1-1 turn. Bigger still, we have Deities and Demigods moving up 6 places to
third, which is the highest gain for the turn. Devil Dinosaurs drop 1 spot to 4th,
and Huckle's Cats fell from 2nd to 5th. The biggest drop belongs to Losers, who fell
4 places to 8th. Can anyone challenge I'm Not Eggbert's hold on the top spot. Darque
Knights appear poised to make a move, but fortunes can shift quickly on the arena
sands.
Time for me to fly, my sweets! I have a fitting in a few hours for a royal ball
in Aruak City. I detest such gatherings, but I love to shop. I guess it all equals
out in the end! We celebrate 50 turns next cycle! I hope you will join us for this
milestone. Until next time!

PAYMENTS BY CHECK AND MONEY ORDER -- CHANGE
Please note that because of new bank regulations, we can no longer accept any check or
money order drawn off a non-US bank, even if it is in US Funds. We were just informed
by our bank that the fee to process these checks is $40, which is crazy high!
Many apologies to our foreign players, but you will need to either get a check from a
US bank (Chase, Citigroup, etc.) or pay via credit card.
