SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, SEAM? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before?
Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Tsk, tsk, ZUSHI beat BRASS HAMMER and BRASS
HAMMER lost 13 points. You're breakin' my heart. Due to absence, and inability to
defend the throne, GHOST has lost the Title of Duelmaster. Start setting that alarm
earlier! And it's out with the old, in with the new, as OPACITY: 100% takes the
Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. The Victory
Tavern, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff?
From SEAM's trash dumps?
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
SEAM, I am losing what little hope I had in you. WEIRDING WAYS the most avoided
team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And who led the way in this mass act
of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was MARVEL. Ha ha ha ha! Ooh, I'm
frightfully impressed, VALERIA was this turn's most challenged warrior. Watch that
ego swell, sports fans. Now here's guts and stupidity all rolled into one, UTHER
PENDRAGON challenged up 30 to take on RA-RA RAINWAR of DARQUE KNIGHTS. And sure,
UTHER PENDRAGON lost alright, but gained 5 recognition for his pains. And pains they
may indeed be! Now look at this. KOOKSY INURMOUT challenged down 27 against THIRSTY
THUGS' HAMILTON. What a weasel! Question now is, will SEAM accept this sort of
tacky behavior? KOOKSY INURMOUT beating HAMILTON. The insult, the....yech! I
notice PARANOID ANDROID challenging down 31 points to fight VALERIA, WEIRDING WAYS
doubtless has some rotten excuse for such an insult to honor. And golly gee,
PARANOID ANDROID beat VALERIA. Aren't we all surprised and impressed? MENACE was
challenged by one of WEIRDING WAYS' warriors this turn, with ANGELIQUE having a lead
of 22 points going into the fight. And sorry to say, ANGELIQUE beat MENACE, leaving
a bad feeling with the crowd. I think exploitive snob is the term I'm looking for.
I guess I can give a little credit to DHOTHO HALFGRAY of DARQUE KNIGHTS for
challenging up by 20 to MERCILESS. DHOTHO HALFGRAY won to get 105 points of
recognition.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for SEAM's
morgue. More variety. And one more turn will show if I'M NOT EGGBERT can
successfully bloodfeud that elusive GHOST over C.P. GOLDDIGGER. Titanium shields and
bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Just wait 'till next time I show up
here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! I see the crowds are getting restless, I must
leave now-- Snide Clemens

From: The Office of Accurate Census Reporting, Gladiatorial Commission
To: All Managers
In the interest of preserving our natural resources and preventing managerial writer's
cramp, the census form has been eliminated, effective immediately. Managers may
register their warriors' races and/or favorite sayings by simply writing them on a
separate piece of paper and submitting them to the Commission. Each warrior may have
up to 15 favorite sayings. Each saying must be categorized Jeer, Gloat, Boredom, Ouch,
Victory and may be up to 70 characters long. For any questions, please contact the
Gladiatorial Commission.
This is just a reminder to all participants in this arena that it is a no-tourney
arena, and is therefore subject to the no-tourney rules. The pledge all participants
took when they entered this arena is as follows:
********************************************************************************
NO-TOURNEY ARENA PLEDGE
* I pledge that I will not send warriors from this team to a tournament, nor
will I use a tournament prize on a warrior from this team.
* I pledge to run a full team when I run turns in this arena. If circumstances
preclude my running less than a full team, I will notify the Player Committee.
* I agree to abide by the decisions of the Player Committee.
* I understand that any warrior that participates in a tournament or receives
a tournament prize shall be sent to the Dark Arena until they are dead.
********************************************************************************
Best of luck in the arena!
TEAM AND CHARACTER MAINTENANCE SERVICE
As a service to all managers, we offer team and character maintenance. This
option allows you to make sure your team or selected warriors will never miss a turn!
Team Maintenance: This will cause all warriors on that team to fight every
turn; if it's an AD arena, any new warriors who arrive on that team will
fight the turn they arrive. In A.D. or in transfer arenas where you have
multiple teams, each team will need to separately be on Team Maintenance.
(The only exception is new warriors; they will not fight until they have had
their initial strategy input.)
Character Maintenance: This will cause only that warrior to fight every
turn. If the character graduates or changes arenas, he/she/it will stay on
Character Maintenance.
In either case, you may submit strategy sheets for your warriors each turn, if
you wish. The Team/Character Maintenance will make sure your warriors fight each
turn, and they will always use their most recently entered strategy.
Remember that challenges, avoids, and challenge/if challenged strategies will not
carry through from turn to turn. These sections are only used on the turn they are
entered. In order to continually challenge or avoid you will need to submit a
strategy sheet each time.
One other thing to remember about maintenance: Maintenance is not something
that you write on your turnsheet (like in demo tourneys). In order to add or remove
maintenance for a team or warrior, you must send a note to Customer Service. If you
just write things like this on your strategy sheet, they may or may not get done.
Likewise, don't write it on your personal ads. Please, please, please put it on a
separate piece of paper with "Customer Service" written on the top. If you don't,
well, you can imagine.
Thanks for your time. Good luck in Duelmasters! -- Green Eyes
