SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly LAPUR games. LEXINGTON caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested QUICK STINGER and was awarded 38
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, LYRA put down SUE
NAMI, causing her to lose 23 points of recognition in the process. This time out
ENOSHIMA made his bid for the throne as he challenged ACCO in an all out contest of
skill for possession of the title! Not for nothing has ACCO in the past laid claim
to the Duelmaster's throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again.
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!
Many and various are the arts of battle. In LAPUR "art" is a word that has long
since passed from the language! I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this
week's challenge seeking began. CROC FILES is feared. This much I can say.
Apparently the stalwarts of BLACK SAMURAI are catching the bulk of jests down at the
challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Loose talk at the arena has
reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after
LEXINGTON. Watch your back! I can not but mention with disdain the name of
NASHVILLE who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full 8 points below in the
rankings. I thought NASHVILLE showed great skill and promise when it defeated
LADYBUG. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. The warrior's path is harsh. For
mediocrity there is but one reward--death. This past week QUICK STINGER, at 23-19-0,
departed LAPUR forever. Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the
arena there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in LAPUR. Nice atmosphere you have here! Sadly warriors, now longer can I
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! Till
we meet again, remember: a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no
one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
All -- Sorry no personals last time, our typist was on vacation. -- Cardow Hunters
Mighty Mouser -- Sorry, pussycat, but I'm just not a mouse. However, if you want to
go for some of them, I would be glad to help out, or at least hold your jacket while
you tackled one. -- Quick Stinger
Murry -- Oh, well. At least I survived the experience, not to mention getting those
skills. Thanks. -- Ladybug
A Bond Servant? Why doesn't he go serve a bond or something? -- Snowshoe
Irritated Housewife -- I can totally relate to that! -- Tiger Lily
Weipa -- You damned lizards are all over the place. Go away! -- Cezzaro
Crocs -- Almost certainly there will be no spotlight today. Still getting back into
the rut, which doesn't seem as comfortable as it was a month ago. -- the Scribe
3 May 2006
All -- I've seen what's on the forum. So I'm prey, am I, Max. You and all your
devious buddies will become my prey, even those I thought okay. I don't have to
explain anything I do, much like yourselves so bring it on. Feel free to come over
to 31 for a thrashing. Oh, by the way, I am also in a new alliance. They tend to
share my sentiments about the VC. If they follow me or not, we will see; I'm not at
liberty to talk for them. The VC may be on their last stand!!!! -- Blackstorm
6 May 2006
The 2006 Mordanti Alliance Olympics are off to a grand start! With seventeen teams
declared, running under eight different flags (not to mention six additional non-
Olympic teams present), it is looking to be as tough as any previous Olympiad, if not
more! Olympians petitioned the Commission to make an allowance for late entries, and
the Commission agreed, and will allow new entrants to partake, as long as they are
active by Round 3 (T546, due May 29th). So if you wish to enter, please email your
intentions to amicitia@gwi.net with team name, manager name, and affiliation
(alliance name or independent), or show up in Mordant (DM-1) on, or before, May 29th
and place your declarations in the newsletter!
