SPY REPORT
Welcome back to Seam, my darlings. We have lots to cover this turn with all the
great arena activities that unfolded today! I usually have something snarky to say,
but you know what? The weather is too beautiful today for me to ruin with any
negativity, so we are just going to enjoy the positive aspects of arena life today and
focus on the bright side of life . . . and death. Wait! I guess it can't all be
sunny news! We will do our best though!
Title fight! Title fight! Title fight! We will start at the top like we
normally do with these reports and shine the spotlight on our Duelmaster Halftone. He
took the throne last turn from a member of Vendetta, and you know what happened this
turn? He got to defend the throne against a member of Vendetta!
HALFTONE won victory over SUNDER in a 1-minute master's Challenge Title fight.
So, congrats to Halftone for once again sitting on the throne of Seam! He also
got his invite to the Isle, so double bonus for the Pixelbenders guild! Our
Duelmaster and new Lord Protector Halftone is managed by Mixel Plick.
The most avoided team today is Thirsty Thugs. DMobster's crew was mostly avoided
by those guys over in the Vendetta guild. We did have one warrior get challenged more
than our Duelmaster, and his name is Impious! Impious had more than a few offers to
fight on the sands, but it was Judgment of Vendetta that got the okay from the
Gladiatorial Commission to face Impious. It took a little bit of luck, but Judgment
was able to come out on top in the fight.
JUDGMENT luckily beat IMPIOUS in a 3-minute brutal novice's Challenge fight.
We had 4 total deaths this turn, but only one of them happened outside of the
Dark Arena. 50 Shades of Slay lost Sivandra in a match against Hollow. You can look
at Lost Sentinels' kill record and know they are no strangers to taking lives on the
sands. Now, we get to see how good they can defend against blood feuds!
Time for the big finish, my sweets! Actually, let's just go for a regular finish
so we can all go out and enjoy this gorgeous day! Pixelbenders are certainly enjoy all
of their successes this turn with multiple awards and a graduation. Congratulations
go to Dark Knights this turn too with the graduation of Fal Icetooth. I know that if
you come back next turn, you will see a new Duelmaster. You might even see a few more
warriors invited to the Isle! Come back and find out what arena life has in store for
us!
