                             Notes from the arena champ.

     Well, I tried to send in a DM column.  Unbeknownst to me at the time, the
process I used was flawed.  Back in the 80s, it was a process of pen hitting paper
and letting the powers at be do the rest.  Now, if you are reading this, I have been
successful at the new process and I would like to thank Vlad for his typical better
late than never approach of information transfer! -- Jerman

                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, IAYE?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? 
Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see 
JACK UR JAWS! win a fight and gain 14 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, JACK UR JAWS! beat 
SLAPPY SAM and SLAPPY SAM lost 11 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  Looks like IAYE 
has some guts at least, SOREN the Duelmaster was this turn's most-challenged warrior. 
LENNOX challenged IAYE's Duelmaster for a shot at the throne.  And if variety is the 
spice of life, IAYE may be getting bland, as SOREN stays top dog in the city.  The 
Rat Nest, humph!  I've tasted better ale at mortuaries.  Where do they get this 
stuff?  From IAYE's trash dumps?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  
WRATHMEN, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.  
Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And who led the way in this mass act of 
cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was LENPROS.  Ha ha ha ha!   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave 
team is developing these kinds of weapons?   
     What does the IAYE arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as comfortable 
to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Phlllt!  Just had to do that before I leave 
the fine city of IAYE.  I feel much better now.  Paste this one in your scrapbooks, 
you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens

                 NEW TEAMS IN THE TEMPORARY TOURNAMENT ARENA (DM 85)

Please note that all new teams created at the Face-to-Face were temporarily placed in 
a temporary Tournament Arena, DM 85.  If you requested that your team be placed in a 
specific arena, it has already transferred to that arena.  Effective immediately, any 
teams placed in DM 85 and not transferred out to another arena, will be automatically 
deleted a month after the tournament.  If you have questions about any of your teams, 
please contact Customer Service. -- RSI
