DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out LYRATILAN to
see what's new. Like, CHAUCERS WORDS had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked
off #1 spot by THE MIDDLE WAY 4! Way to go THE MIDDLE WAY 4! Talk about yer major
upsets! CALLI GEIER's match with HAPPY PEASANT cost her a loss of 7 points! Don't
you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think FELAWESHIPE should let NOBLE
ASSASSIN be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Is the Duelmaster
really being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. THE MIDDLE
WAY 4 was the most avoided team. Is a 106-93-4 record really that scary? I don't
know what FUNKY FOLK VI's been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many
fights from THE MIDDLE WAY 4, that's fer sher. Like, is SQUYER popular, or what? It
was challenged the most in all of LYRATILAN! It's got a 18-14-0, is that good?
STAYED HOME must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. He challenged
SQUYER. 15 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought STAYED
HOME showed great skill and promise when he won victory over SQUYER. All right, so I
slept through it! Big deal!
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? What if they had a fight and nobody showed up? I'd be out of a job,
that's what!!!
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really
should stop. I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Defeated by a Veteran Mercenary. Oh, well, at least he wasn't a tyro. -- Bron Chollu
I was KILLED by a Visiting Orc? Killed DEAD? This is... this is awful. It's so
embarrassing. I don't know how I'm going to live this one down.... -- Ghost of Abter
Erdin
Defeated by an Ambitious Guard, and I don't want to know what he's ambitious to be.
This is shaping up to be a really rotten set of fights for us, and we haven't even met
a managed warrior yet! -- Velond Wok
Well, I showed that so-called Fratsfan Noble where to get off! -- Calli Geier
Cal Amity -- Well, as you're the only managed warrior to match against us, I sort of
feel that you should have won. But you can only win by fighting for it, and you were
just, you will forgive my pointing it out? A calamity waiting to happen. -- Quia
Salian
Squyer -- Thanks for the skills, ratings, and the win! Hopefully Bron Chollu will a
champion again next turn and I can pick on him instead of you. Alternatively, you
could avoid me and have your teammate Fellaswipe come and pick on me, but that would
require your manager to submit paperwork... See you on the sands! -- Stayed Home

Invitation to Newbie Managers
by Hammer
As a Captain of the Vendetta Cartel, Hammer has recently dissolved the Vendetta
Cartel Crimson Ascension Family. Lady Martilyo and Rook are NO LONGER members of the
Vendetta Cartel.
The Vendetta Cartel is divided into "Families" under the leadership of Captains;
who have been appointed by the VC God Father known throughout the duelingland as
Master Darque.
Hammer is now the Captain of the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe and the veteran
manager extends an invitation for prospective membership as a Probate [ONLY 2 Probate
positions are available in the VC Tarantula Tribe at the present time!] to any Newbie
Manager who qualifies under the following conditions:
1. Newbie Manager MUST have Online Access for Email communications! [Hammer is
presently living in Qatar and Lieutenants Maximillian and Firehawk are living in
Canada; so Email Communication is a MUST for consideration!]
2. Newbie Manager MUST have the time and funds to create 2 new stables to be
placed in 2 separate Slow Arenas [the cost of running 1 stable in a Regular Arena!]
to actively participate on a monthly basis with the other 3 T-Tribe members of the
Vendetta Cartel!
3. Newbie Manager MUST have the DESIRE to be an Active Member of the Vendetta
Cartel as a Tarantula Tribe trainee aka Probate; developing his/her managerial skills
under the mentorship of Hammer and the other VC members; thus proving themselves
worthy to become Vendetta Cartel Lieutenants in the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe!
The Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe lives by the Feud; thereby prospective
Probates are forewarned that membership guarantees instant Friends and instant
Enemies!
Any prospective Probates who:
1) seek to improve their managerial insights/abilities under the counsel of
Hammer and other Vendetta Cartel members
2) desire to be active members of an Active Alliance that WILL NOT Dissolve in a
Few Months; building lasting friendships while enjoying Feuding with Common Enemies
3) who enjoy sending their gladiators to Tournaments and would strive to see
their manager name listed among the TV and TC winners in the Mailer Tourney
Newsletters as a member of the Vendetta Cartel
MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
Send an Email to HammerDM@fastermail.com to introduce yourself and provide Hammer
with a short Bio of your managerial successes/failures and favorite/least favorite
fighting styles; with a listing of your active stable/stables for Hammer to verify in
the online newsletters.
Hammer will choose the 2 prospective Probates for membership in the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe on the basis of who he decides will be most suited [to Hammer's
purposes as the T-Tribe Captain!] from among those responding to this All Arena Ad on
a first response/first acceptance or rejection basis!
-- Hammer; Vendetta Cartel Captain/WordSmith and WeaponSmith of the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe
