SPY REPORT
Hello, my darlings! Welcome back to another thrilling episode of As the Seam Turns! It
is a turn filled with dashing duels, daring challenges, and delightful upsets here in
our beloved arena. Grab a cup of tea (or something stronger), and let's take a look at
this turn's most exciting highlights.
Oh, my sweet stars, what a marvelous sight it was to see a genuine title defense!
Lexxee Lioneye sat upon the throne and had to step forward to defend it! Our fierce
feline of the sands took on Hodja from the Thirsty Thugs guild. Lexxee made it look a
little too effortless as she left Hodja in the sands after only a 1-minute bout.
Lexxee is now basking in her new title of "Repeat Duelmaster." Enjoy your reign dear!
If we have learned anything in this arena, it is your fortunes can change in an
instant. Beware! The Challenger Champions are circling!
My lovelies, it seems No Tournament Blues is the team that everyone decided to avoid.
Who was the most artful dodger in the crowd of gladiators? That would be those clever
folks over at Rubber vs. Glue. They are the top team, so perhaps they wanted to remain
at the top of the rankings. Or maybe they just did not want to tangle with the bluesy
boys and girls over at NTB! Kye Smallfoot was the center of attention in the challenge
department. He was the most challenged warrior for this cycle. Oh Morrissey of
Pandemic Boredom came knocking, but it did not go well for him. Kye proved to be a
little too nimble, send Oh Morrissey packing in short order. This is the pairs' third
fight in as many turns and fourth overall fight. The series is tied at 2-2, so we need
a tie-breaker at some point in the future!
There were only five challenge fights for turn 252, and four of those challengers were
down. All four of those down challenges came from Pandemic Boredom. They varied in
size, but the largest was Oh Morrissey's challenge to Kye Smallfoot, down 15 points in
the rankings. Oh Morrissey was hoping for an easy win, but fate had other plans! OM is
off to nurse a bruised ego until next turn!
Well, my sweet ones, that wraps up another eventful turn here in Seam. There were once
again no deaths and no graduations. You can try again next turn! The battlefield was
ablaze with excitement today, and I cannot wait to see what happens in two weeks! Will
Lexxee hold the throne? Who will step up for some nice, classic revenge? You simply
must come back in a fortnight to find out!

PERSONAL ADS
Doomscrolling -- I was trying to challenge you to take your seat, but Faz got the call
instead. It was probably to my advantage because I wasn't sure if I had the juice to
get the jump on you. -- Lexxee Lioneye
Mississippi Sheiks -- I did not anticipate that was going to be a Title match, but
thanks for letting me win. It is a hard road out of an accidental trip to the Dark
Arena, but I finally accomplished something. -- Lexxee Lioneye
But What Am I -- You know exactly what you are! Scum! -- Exyl Rott
Oh Morrissey -- The Fates were obviously against me this time! -- Kye Smallfoot
Rat Fink -- I think I was the glue in this instance. Everything was stuck! My feet
refused to move and my sword was pretty useless, too. -- Mal Brittlejaw
I personally blame this mysterious "Jason" for upsetting me by ruining my duelmaster
column and thus causing me to lose to Faz. I was also upset due to watching Blink
Twice -- a good movie which I was still thinking about as Faz beat me senseless. That
explains the whole "one-sided" part in the fight description -- I was thinking deep
thoughts on what it meant...was it about the abuse of power, focusing on the danger
that men can pose? Or was it clumsy and overworked, a cliched and badly paced mess?
Or was it like our fight, both? At least I remembered the fight in the morning! --
