SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Nothing is certain in SOLVEN, with changing loyalties, changing
Duelmasters. Write this down: new top team--MIDDLE WAY 15. MIDDLE WAY 15 had cause
to celebrate, after BELISSA HOUGH got 18 points by beating KHALHUMS DWARF. A certain
someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 1 points to
DOLBY JOSSEL. (Discrete enough, DUNCAN HUNTER?) Like a flirtacious debutante,
SOLVEN's Duelmaster TRUMP found himself the man of the hour, being "invited to dance"
2 times! The arena was more crowded than usual this time, as NAFISAH faced SOLVEN's
Duelmaster. In SOLVEN, nothing is permanent (except Death), and we find ourselves a
new Duelmaster, NAFISAH. So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last
week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like the noble eagle soaring amongst
the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of THE REPUBLICANS, alone and unchallenged.
The warriors of THE REPUBLICANS found their efforts at combat frustrated as
KELLUMBO'S KIDS apparently had more important things to do than fight. Take heed
SOLVEN, of the unprincipled action of JACKSON. By challenging ROMNEY, 20 points
below her, JACKSON besmirches the noble art of dueling. Warriors of SOLVEN! Do you
wish your reputations tainted by the base challenge of JACKSON?
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Oh hard! that to
strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Do not think spyreporting in SOLVEN is the highlight of my life. Keep those
sands bloody and the buzzards fat! Do not despair! I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Judge -- Well, I don't think the fight is in Nafisah's favor, but I have to take a
shot at the throne when I can, especially when it is your guy. Here's hoping the
strategy tweak pays off, although I don't think it will be enough. -- DK
Happy Peasant? Still? Amazing. -- Chucker Istta
Why is it that I find myself dissatisfied with training Guards? -- Edgiles Kapp
Duncan Hunter -- Now, now, play nice! -- Dolby Jossel
They should have let me kill the Civilized Criminal. After all, I never said *I* was
civilized. -- Belissa Hough
Giuliani -- Drat. -- Ghost of Heladika Noe
Shoot -- Looking good here so far. -- Ghost of Gallantins Morik
Shux -- It'd be my pleasure, ma'am, as I am a great fan of ice cream, as well as of
you. -- Edgiles Kapp

I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately. If there
are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good. So if you send me
a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I
have not gotten it (yet). If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com.
If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos. We are working on this
problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta
P.S. If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
