SPY REPORT
Well, sending kids back to school perhaps interfered with managers sending and
getting their warriors and paperwork to the arena. But the show goes on and there
were 14 fights with 3 challenges. 3 others fought in the Dark Arena. Which
coincidentally matched the number of warriors that fought stand ins.
By far the most important fight was for the throne. The veteran DR. SOX put his
challenge in to NINE-TAILED FOX. As is often the case, skill beat experience.
Doesn't always happen that way, but this time it did. NINE-TAILED FOX remains the
Duelmaster and will fight to retain it again next turn, the Commission not advancing
him yet.
That also set up NUMBERS GAME for a beautiful 3 win turn. I find it hard to
believe that NUMBERS GAME was one of the only teams to receive no avoids, given how
their warriors are performing at the moment. Well done.
Speaking of avoids, AVENGERS and JUST DESSERTS received the most (4 each).
WHAMMO & THUDDA 4U issued half of those avoids. All total 11 of the 25 warriors
warriors fighting issues avoids.
The most challenged warrior was CANDLESTICK and for some reason FHTAGN issued a
challenge. FHTAGN, you do know about good matchups, right? That is not traditionally
one of the favored matchups for one of your style, especially one with your, uh, shall
we say, lack of skill in the arena...
SPECTRUM, feeling invincible, perhaps, after 3 wins, issued a challenge to SHARK.
I saw the result of this one coming. If there were any surprises, it is that the
SHARK didn't eat SPECTRUM. Challenging a warrior with 10 times your experience seems
a bit much, even for an undefeated warrior.
Total Parries saw ZERO fights. Is it that Chimlevtal managers care nothing for
winning (this style is the most successful over time)? Or is it that Chimlevtal
managers want to have nothing to do with promoting success for the evil Aimed Blow
style? Regardless, this turn saw none of them fight.
And because of the low turn out and lack of other fights that interested me, I
will speak briefly of the two fights facing off brand new warriors. This also,
conveniently allows me to welcome WHAT GAUL? back to our sands (who brought home 3
awards to their team).
CAPTAIN JACK of MILITARY MAYHEM fought FULLIAUTOMATIX of WHAT GAUL!.
CAPTAIN JACK vanquished FULLIAUTOMATIX in a 1 minute mismatched bout.
SERGEANT SCHULTZ of MILITARY MAYHEM fought WINEANDSPIRIX (31-5896) of WHAT GAUL!.
SERGEANT SCHULTZ lost to WINEANDSPIRIX in a 1 minute novice's fray. That is it
for this turn! I'll be back in a month!

All, yes, it is true; Hat Pin is gone. The far more experienced (at least 9-3 FE
advantage) Elusive 12th killed our basher in a random matchup. Smithy's definition and
mine differ as to what is a godling. Hat Pin was a 13-4-12-15-17-16-7 mode basher. I
guess Smithy will miss him a lot? -- Lady Smith
Klondike, what was THAT!? Thanks. -- Whip
Ryo, you showed me. Salute. -- Candlestick
Good luck to all. Health. Humility. Honor. -- Lady Smith
