SPY REPORT
Undefeated... Staying that way is very, very hard. FLOYD'S BROOKIE was very
close. Honestly I thought he'd stay that way for his entire arena career. He
graduated today at 15-1. Well done and congratulations. But there are teams and
warriors currently playing with this goal. MILITARY MAYHEM increased their 3 turn
win-loss to 11-0. They have been back for 4 turns now and haven't lost a single fight
since returning. WAND returned to action and won his 5th fight against the more
experienced OLIVER WOOD. 5-0 isn't elite level yet, but you have to get to 5-0 before
you get to an elite start! And perfect is perfect no matter how you got there, no
matter what else happens. Records like this aren't everyday records! BIRDS had a 3
turn record of 6-0 last turn and they are now 5-1. Keeping these things going over
time is hard!
MILITARY MAYHEM's 4-0 earned them the same 4 awards as last turn. All four of
their warriors were involved in challenge matches. CAPT. AMERICA, MAJOR TOM, and
MAJOR SNAFU all challenged up in recognition and and up in experience. All won. SGT.
ROCK, the Duelmaster, was challenged by ROCKY. ROCKY came prepared for an endurance
battle and went 11 minutes, but couldn't overcome the SGT. ROCK. Given the styles,
you'll be unsurprised that ROCKY was the second most popular warrior this turn. A
little surprising is that SGT. ROCK was only listed on the least popular list, but far
from the least popular warrior this turn (that honor was reserved for the new warrior,
SUPER SOAKER - I guess the fans just don't appreciate a good SUPER SOAKER fight - or
maybe this one doesn't work very well - there are some very cheap knock off brands).
There were two down challenges this turn (out of ten total challenges). Both were
made by AFTER MIDNIGHT (no surprise there). The more 'shrewd' challenge was EL
CHUPACABRAS challenging from the top of the challenger initiates to the bottom of the
listings to defeat GRIM of CARTOON NETWORK. I am pretty sure that challenges like
this aren't recommended in "How to Win Friends & Influence People", but they are good
for winning. The other down challenge was I CANSEE URANUS going after LUNA LOVEGOOD.
A 2-1 warrior versus a 1-2 warrior. Now they are both 2-2 since LUNA won.
While AFTER MIDNIGHT is known for such challenges and while they did receive
multiple avoids, it was JUST DESSERTS and USEFUL WEAPONS as the teams that were most
avoided, receiving 6 avoids each. HOGWART'S STUDENTS issued 4 avoids total to be the
most avoiding team this turn. And it likely did some good as they did have a winning
record this turn.
On the other side, you see big up challenges. I'm not sure whether to call these
brave or foolhardy, but we saw two of them today. RAVEN challenged up 32 points to
COLD WIND. Maybe the 3rd time is the charm, RAVEN? SWIMMING went up 23 recognition
and a big experience difference and while it took 6 minutes, the result was the same.
My favorite fight this week was BRASS KNUCKLES vs TOUCAN. These two are both
largely untested at the top of the arena (or at least largely unsuccessful except in
mismatches). So this fight could be a hint towards the future, as some of the older
veterans move on. BRASS KNUCKLES was the victor in a quick one.
That is a wrap for this turn. 11 teams sent 42 warriors representing all ten
styles. Aimed Blows were perfect at 6-0. Bashers and Parry Strikers saw futility,
going 0-6 and 0-3. The 23 fights can be described by 3 DA's, 10 challenges, and 10
matchups (with only a single stand in, who is now dead).

PERSONAL ADS
Belinda, of course you are sad. I am sad too. No FTF entrants. No decent warriors.
Picked on in the spy report. Watching Crip go 5-0-1. Life is like a box of empty
chocolates. -- Smithy
Luna Lovegood, don't you feel bad for beating me? I surely do. -- Pitchfork, Useful
Weapon
Solamancer? I beat Solamancer!? That is just plain wonderful! -- Brass knuckles,
Useful Weapon (but needing some polishing)
Belinda, thanks for getting the spy report in at the last minute. You are a far better
person than a certain Californian I know. -- Smithy
Assur -- No. Maybe you should change your name from Assur to Asshat. -- Weirdo
Crip -- Wrong. I will scat all over your mother's face and eat her whole. What a
tasty morsel she will be! -- El Chupacabras
Sgt. Rock -- Sound advice. I'll slow it down in Min 1 and see what happens. -- Bad
Burrito, getting fat
Luna Lovegood -- Are you saying, Boo, or Boo-Urns? -- El Chupacabras
The Jeff -- Seems the audience like to applaud after one attack has been thrown. --
Hermione Granger
Toucan -- I don't think I'll fit in your birdbath -- Oliver Wood
Basara Kubikiri -- How many crits did you throw. Too many for me to count. -- Gregory
Goyle
Sunstroke -- The boss wants me to tell you that he's never seen anyone use weapons the
way you do. -- George Weasley
Pitchfork -- Next time, stop trying to hit the lion-hat. -- Luna Lovegood
All -- Where are all the personal ads? Seems kind of quiet around here. -- Agent R,
mgr of Hogwart's Students.
Belinda -- Deal denied... I do NOTHING for your pleasure. Not to mention I would not
issue such a gross down-challenge unless the offender truly deserved it. -- D. Noble
How unfair is it that I graduate after going 3-3 in a tournament? Guess I shouldn't
have gotten that 14th win here, huh? Oh well that's how it goes. I appreciated my time
here but regret not being able to live up to the full potential I possess. Probably a
manager thing... -- Floyd's Brookie
P.S. Burrito, I also regret not having the opportunity to beat you up again like I did
on turn 449. On that day you weakly attacked me twice with that ridiculous battle axe
before I sent you to the infirmary in one minute. Today if we were to fight, I
wouldn't even let you swing. Enjoy that stellar record, little man.
Time to go look at some of the local bakeries for new recruits. With Brookie's
departure, and another DA participant this turn it is time to restock the pantry...
