SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of CALEAM! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp Eyes,
Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team HEADBANGERS was unseated
this week as GOLDEN CANYON moved up from 4th ranking to take the top spot with a
2-3-0 record for the round. MORAAT caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial
commission as he skillfully bested POPPA LODE and was awarded 13 points in
recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, KUNG-FU MASTER put down MISS
PRISS, causing her to lose 19 points of recognition in the process. Due to his
absence and inability to defend the throne, FIRE has lost the title of Duelmaster.
The city has turned out in honor of KORIBUS, for with his arena victory he may now
lay claim to the highest position in the city! Heed this! A seer has warned that if
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or
7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. I saw one fighter that warriors
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. HEADBANGERS is feared. This much
I can say. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to find
any of RAJHAN'S PRIDE last week. Busy avoiding HEADBANGERS?
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in CALEAM. Nice atmosphere you have here! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a
maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Sailor Venus -- That was a bit disappointing. You performed well though. --
Blackadder
Miss Priss -- Now this is getting ridiculous. -- Fire
Moraat -- Time for yet another strategy change. -- Massasaugus
Koribus -- That was good timing for you, when I was experimenting with strategies.
Let's try that again, shall we? -- Pink
P.S. AND you shorted me on the established 3 skill learns, professor!
Jaw Breaker -- You held out long enough to make me very nervous. Well done! -- Ruby
Go-fer -- <broad smile> Thanks! -- Lionfish
Seether -- Still seething? -- Cane Toad
Birthday Girl -- A fascinating exercise. -- Platypus
Papaiz -- Now hold on just one moment, son. My KD never goes above 7, and I never
aim for vitals here in Caleam. You know this! I feel badly about your warriors; if
I knew a way to fix it I would. It certainly is NOT my intent to chase anyone from
the arena. The terminal outcome of a few recent fights is definitely not my desire.
What else can I say? -- Lord Fang
There may be something missing from the middle of this ad. I think HAL may have
had the munchies. -- Ed.
The Scribe -- An intriguing prospect indeed! -- Lord Fang
Hammerfall -- If ye hadn't banged me on the head so hard, ye daft Rirorni, I'da
taught ye more skills. -- Poppa Lode
Fire -- I will forgive your rudeness in staring at me (in order to brilliantly time
my movement) because I do realize how remarkable I must seem. I believe you Rirorni
are unfamiliar with the concept of "ladies," yes? But you will learn. Perhaps you
will even learn to be gentlemen. -- Miss Priss
Pink -- It's just not your color. You need something in more of a jewel-tone. Ruby,
perhaps. Yes, I think you would look good in rubies.... -- Koribus, taking up color-
draping, after a fashion
Lionfish -- You damned poisonous fish! I hate you and all your kin! You're as bad
as that Aussie, Stonefish, that's down in Zorpunt. Eat fishhooks, scaly one! -- Go-
Fer
Rosie -- Nothing personal, ma'am. Just doing my job. -- Bouncer
P.S. Not that I'd expect YOU to make trouble, but trouble happens around you.
Papaiz -- There is no such thing as a death-free arena. I've noticed that these
things seem to go in cycles. Don't know if that's a valid observation, but that's
the way it seems. -- Leeta
P.S. Probably something to do with sunspots.
Pink -- More than a minute and I get bored. -- Go-Fer
What I meant to say, but my finger slipped, was that I wish it was MAY. You know,
warm, sunny, stuff like that. -- the Scribe
P.S. An email to Livia@reality.com will reach me, if everything is working
correctly.

The Company of Brothers Alliance would like to welcome Azereth as our newest member.
We are sure he will be an asset to both our alliance and the dueling community! --
Baphomet, Co-Founder T.C.B.
24 December 2004
Due to requests, the Turf War IV will be postponed until turn 225 (approx May/June
2005). Sorry about the inconvenience. -- Baphomet, host of TW 4
