TEAM SPOTLIGHT
No-Tourney Arena Contest Prizes
We all know that no warrior in any of the no-tourney arenas may participate in
tournaments, nor can they receive any type of tournament prize. In the absence of an
active player committee for the no-tourney arenas, we bring decisions related to
contest details to the general participants in the arenas. Only participants who have
fought in one or more of the no-tourney arenas (DM 20, 81, 83, and 107) in 2022 may
participate in this form. Votes will be tallied on 5/23.
The proposed prize:
This prize is for an arena contest in a no-tourney arena: The manager receives a pool
of natural (auto-generated, non-DYO, unaltered) replacement rollups and may choose a
single replacement to be added as the next warrior on their team. The remaining
rollups in the pool are destroyed.
Please vote once here: https://tinyurl.com/DMPrize2022
Alternately, you can send your vote (in favor or against the prize) to Customer
Service.
Thank you.

SPY REPORT
Welcome back, my pretties! There's a bit of spring in the air around the arena today.
Spring in the wind, spring in the birds' chirping, and a spring in the gladiators'
steps as they took to the sands! It has been a wonderful day for the games, and I'm
looking forward to telling you all about it. Let's get started so we do not run out
of time and miss something important.
The Beer Bellies came back the last turn and threw their weight around to take New
Seam's throne. Pappy Blue Ribs, whose name can make me both hungry and thirsty for
some reason, became our glorious Duelmaster. With an opportunity to defend the throne
this turn, how did he fare? Hydra decided that one turn on the throne was enough for
PBR and made a play for the title. It was a success! Hydra is now the top dog in the
arena or top multi-headed mythological creature, whichever you prefer. Congrats to
Hydra, Eli, and the Hero's Inc guild on their success.
It looks as if Way of All Flesh, who has been dominating the arena of late, was our
most avoided team. Who can blame anyone for avoiding them when they have been sitting
so comfortably atop the standings? Weirding Ways avoided them the most. Our most
challenged warrior just happens to be our new Duelmaster. Yes, Hydra was the most
challenged warrior this turn. Honestly, that is pretty impressive when you consider
Seam had 31 fights total and 17 of them were challenges in one form or another! Keep
up the great activity gents! Maybe drop a few personal ads too!
Metal Blade has taken over the top spot. As mentioned before, Way of All Flesh has
had an impressive, multiple-turn run, and the team doesn't look like it is going to be
leaving the top of the rankings anytime soon. Alfredovision (TM) dropped 1 spot to
3rd, while Huckle's Cats entered the top 5 at 4th. Darque Knights fell to 5th to
finish off our top 5 teams. There was not a lot of movement, just small leaps and
falls, which means teams are staying consistent from turn to turn.
We had 2 deaths this turn and none in the Dark Arena. The first came when Lecter
challenged down to face Gumbo. If you look at Lost Sentinels' record, you will note
they have an aptitude for killing. They showed it this turn as Gumbo executed Lecter.
The other death came when Chatroom Rambo randomly matched up with Drink Em Up. It
wasn't even close! The Commission matchups are brutal at times, and this looks to be
a prime example of their whimsy. Oh well, we will see how all of this plays out next
turn with blood feuds and forgiveness . . . or neither, who knows?
Time for me to go, my sweets! It has been a pleasure as always to share this time
with you. I hope to see all of you back in 14 days. It is good to see our missing
teams have returned. Welcome back to each of you, and I look forward to mingling with
you later this afternoon when all the paperwork is submitted and the gladiatorial
areas are cleared. See you then or in 2 weeks!
