                                      SPY REPORT

We have gathered for another turn in dear Seam, my sweets!  Welcome back to the 
gladiatorial games and all the excitement they bring to our fair city.  I am Sidara 
Brightbell, a spy reporter, a witch, and so many other things - some good and some 
bad.  I will be taking you through all the news that is worth reporting from today's 
festivities. Sit back and enjoy your time with us because it will be time to depart 
before you know it!  So, let's get started!

The Duelmaster's title is always a great place to start!  Well, there isn't much to 
report. Frexx was our Duelmaster last turn, and he remains our Duelmaster this turn.  
Metal Blade's Helstart made an attempt at the throne.  It was a valiant effort that 
lasted 3 minutes but to no avail.  Frexx is still Duelmaster.  I guess the exciting 
news is that Frexx received an invite and now stands as Lord Protector.  He will leave 
us after fighting the next turn.  Congrats to LP Frexx, who is managed by DMobster.

Let's see, yes, many people are always interested in avoids and avoiding.  Those 
concerns will drop significantly on turn 199 when avoids become illegal for those 
taking part in the 199 Bottles contest.  Until then, we can safely say that Constant 
Sorrow is the most feared team in the arena.  Pandemic Boredom avoided them the most, 
but from looking over the numbers, they were not alone! Stimulus Check is the most 
challenged warrior.  SC is responsible for the death of Akakia's warrior William 
Buckwell, so it is no surprise that Akakia's warrior, Albert, got a challenge through 
to SC. Ironically, it was just a regular challenge and not a bloodfeud challenge.  In 
the end, it doesn't matter how the challenge got through.  What does matter is that 
Albert beat Stimulus Check in 2-minutes.

We had a few deaths this turn, but most came from the Dark Arena.  The non-DA deaths 
of note, of which there are only two, begin with Kylie Jenner Lip.  KJL challenged The 
Aces above them in the rankings by 10 recognition points.  There was an 8-fight 
disparity in the fight experience, but everyone forgot to tell that to The Aces!  The 
Aces killed KJL in a lopsided 1-minute fight.  The other death came to a relative 
newcomer, Aeternam, who challenged the evenly ranked Sam Lay. Aeternam would like to 
have that challenge stricken from the record, but it is too late now!  Sam Lay lay 
Aeternam to rest in another short, 1-minute fight.  I offer congratulations to the 
winners and my condolences to the dead.

As mentioned earlier, Frexx will be gone after the next turn. Receiving their invite 
as well, we have The Silent Owl quietly stepping out of our arena too.  Frexx is our 
Duelmaster and top-rated Lunger, while The Silent Owl is recognized as our top Wall of 
Steel. Mr. Root left us today after fighting his final bout against Hop on the Bus 
Gus.  It was not a good day for Mr. Root, who lost rather quickly against bus-hopping 
Gus.

Well, that is it for me today, my darlings.  We are one turn closer to the start of 
the 199 Bottles contest.  The preliminary rounds come to a close next turn, and the 
full contest begins.  Luck to all, and thank you to Alfredo for hosting this contest 
in our fair arena. Frexx is gone from us after the next turn, so we will need to crown 
a new Duelmaster.  There are many options in the upper ranks!  So, who is going to be 
the lucky gladiator that comes out on top of these worthy competitors?  You know the 
answer!  Come back next turn and find out!

Sidara -- You going to great lengths to spell Shondailadondai correctly and yet 
misspelling my name as "What's Steaming" is a cruel, cruel joke.  I mean, sure, I was 
a steaming pile of you-know-what in my fight against Poor Judgement but still, "What's 
Steaming" is just kicking me while I'm down. -- What's Streaming

Brittney Griner -- That switch from cannabis oil to Soviet-era steroids has worked 
wonders!  I mean, you are probably no longer legally considered a woman by the WNBA so 
that's a bummer but I'm a "bottle of vodka is half-full" kind of guy and now so are 
you! -- Pappy

Georgia Tom -- Thanks for the skills. Good luck in the Dark Arena. -- Aeternam

The Redneck -- Well, at least Anvil showed up. -- Producer

Boojum -- Yer name reminds me of something with fermented poop in it. Got some skills, 
which was nice. See ya around. -- Epicurean

Eternal Blossom -- So close. Maybe you will get me next time. Producer says I have 
actually learned to parry, since I did parry some of the blows this time. Guess he 
will take me to get ice cream now. -- Helstar

Atari 2600 -- Man you fast. Not fast enuff though. -- Manowar

Scrolling Reddit -- I'm amazed that a guy with only 2 wins has more recognition points 
a guy with 6. -- Albert

Parno -- Perhaps you should try a quarterstaff?  Well mine cost a buck and a quarter 
but it was worth it. --  Slick

vs Cain --  That was amazing! I got so bored with beating on you I had to slip out for 
A Snickers. -- Steven

Codex --  Great job on your first win! -- Biff

Management -- When I started gLadiating I knew there would be jokes and buffoonary. I 
did not expect the joke about Ellis Island and I am not part duck! -- William Buckwell 
III

William Duckwell III -- Please keep the name, it reminds me of someone from DuckTales.  
Which makes me think that they should reboot that or at least have a new movie on 
Disney+ like they did for Chip 'n Dale. In the new DuckTales movie, you could have the 
Beagle Boys and the other baddies like Magica De Spell all use iPhones so you think 
they're good but they really aren't -- plot twist, mind blown!  Anyway, think about 
keeping Duckwell and I'll start working on some fanfic to get the ball rolling. -- 
Pappy

Do It Tomorrow -- Best 2-of-3 goes to me. -- Mother-In-Law

Stimulus Check -- After that win I'm going to cash you and spend the money at the 
mall! -- Teenage Daughter

What's Streaming -- I really DID want to rip your face off. -- Poor Judgement

Cali Gold Rush -- You seemed to be in a hurry given the way you ran all over me. -- 
Friendzone

Pandemic Boredom -- Maybe you should start thinking about crying uncle? -- Mannequin, 
mgr Constant Sorrow

Seam -- Well, well, well, just looka me, granted Popularity Leader.  Had I had any 
schooling past the 8th grade, no doubt I coulda been most popular with these biceps.  
So, getting popular here feels gud.  I were Duelmaster though, so I want that back and 
the Landlord sed I can do that again. Frexx, you goin see these biceps in person and 
when I spit chew on yur face you will know you lost, just like Anvil did last turn.  
See ya soon. -- The Redneck

Hooded Lemming -- Every so often I see sumthin hooded, but usually not a lemming, I 
was confused, I won't be next time.  When my baby-daddy finds out about you hittin me, 
he will be mad, cause he is supposed to be hittin me. - Pregnant Alcoholic

Milk Crate -- I use milk crates for tables at my place, so you are lucky I left you 
alone after I demolished you. -- Trailer Trash

Alf -- You get headaches too?  I get them all the time.  Some tell me it is because of 
the cheap beer I drink.  But, once I have 99 beers my next 48 hours is set. -- The 
Landlord

Hammer -- Sometimes I use a pliers as a hammer, and sometimes I use my head. What 
interesting things have you used as a hammer? -- The Landlord
