SPY REPORT
Ah, what a beautiful day to gather once again in the arena! It is made even more
enjoyable because you are here, my loves! We had an exciting day of action, which we
will get to in a moment. I hope everyone has utilized these last two weeks to tweak
strategies, inspire greatness, and work out all the soreness from the previous turn.
I assume a few of you worked hard to get out of any type of work, there are also some
of those types in every group. Anyway, time to look at what went down in the arena!
We will start where we always start - with the Duelmaster's Title. Ajax came into the
throne last time, and he had the privilege of defending it this turn. There are some
Duelmasters who sit idly by and allow anyone to challenge them. Other Duelmasters
will issue avoids to keep certain warriors from the glory of an arena throne. Politics
and favors are just a part of every organization, so it is no surprise. Occasionally,
you will get a Duelmaster who does not sit idly by and do nothing. Ajax is that type
of Duelmaster! He challenged Rudolf Von Flugel, and with the style match up, who can
blame him? Ajax remains the Duelmaster and receives an invite to the Isle of the Eye.
We had a few inactive teams today. Pharmanomicon, along with Weirding Ways, did not
make the fights. What is the matter boys? It could be bad mail service, I've heard
more than a few managers complaining about it of late. It could be any collection of
issues. Regardless, we hope they are back with us next cycle because a full arena is
a happy arena, or something like that. I'm not a "live, laugh, love" kinda girl, so
I'm at a loss for a motivational quote. For those that were here, we see Way of All
Flesh still holding strong as the top team. Darque Knights gained nicely in the
rankings moving from 7th to 2nd place. Hero's Inc. is unmoved in the 3 spot, while
Beer Bellies climbs up 1 in the rankings, followed by Pixelbenders, who close our out
top 5 teams.
No death is always a good thing in my spy reporter book. I am thoroughly Andorian in
that regard, but I recognize it is part of these competitions. I am shocked that you
gents have continued this "no death" trend for a second consecutive turn. Of course,
when I say no death, I do not refer to the Dark Arena. Death is a dear friend in
those fights and we had 3 unfortunate souls sent to battle by torchlight with Alfredo
sending 2 warriors, and Darque sending the 3rd poor guy.
Robo Village is our most avoided team on the sands. They were mostly avoided by Beer
Bellies. I'm not sure, but from the clientele The Landlord has introduced us to so
far, I feel like these two teams would get along GREAT! Helstar is our most
challenged warrior. The other spy reporters and I have decided this is not that great
of a recognition award. I mean, you are the warrior that MOST other warriors think
they can beat, which is why they are challenging you. It doesn't matter much, some
warriors just like to see their names in the spy report. Helstar did win against
Mechadeplorable in a 3-minute fight. Mecha was this turn's least popular, followed by
Helstar.
It is time to wrap this report up, my darlings. It is a similar story to the last few
turns, our Duelmaster is graduating, so we need a new champion next cycle. Who is
going to step up and challenge for that right? Will anyone be able to topple Ajax and
claim the throne outright? It is always an interesting situation, but come back and
join us in two weeks to answer these tantalizing questions! I'll see you then.

PERSONAL ADS
Sidara- For me, it would be a Striker from Sunset, Carnivorous Canary. He was my first
on the team to get Duelmaster. This was many years ago when the arena was still known
for being bloody. Everything had clicked when I got the rollup. Bonused, lucky,
learned well, and was a blast to finally have a gladiator that actually did well and
sat on the top spot for a few turns before graduating. Even had a decent fav weapon,
Longsword. Miss that guy. -- Producer (Metal Blade)
For the Curious -- Bitter End was mode, good damage, normal endurance. 15-4-15-17-10-
10-13. Really should have been great damage, damn rollup gods. Favs are Epee Mod/Low
Decise. Decided to test his faves in the Dark Arena, hit fast, but rather ineffective.
He is now retired. Hopefully the replacement will be decent. -- Producer
Weirdo -- Just when I'd thought there were no new ideas, you blow up the personals
with a b&Days of Our Lives' FanFic sponsored by Axe Body Spray. 15-0 sure would have
been swell, but alas I'll just have to toss another 14-1 on the pile. Glad you found a
good use for your new faves, there might be hope for you still. I personally prefer to
go get a kill in the DA when warriors jettison to the Isle, but in all honesty you did
the right thing. *Chef kiss* -- The Manray
Darque -- Well done guiding Steig to ADM. I have a couple 3 CN graduates but many more
died trying. Come by the Six5 and have a celebratory round, on the house. -- MF
Can Collector -- Congrats on your invite. Out of the pan, into the fire, eh? I'll buy
you one at the Six5, you'll need it. -- YQ
Lorenzo F. -- We need to stop meeting like that. -- Manny Ray
Huckle -- It be like that, yo. -- Da Mech
Ajax -- Let's try that again ... -- V Ice
