SPY REPORT
It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last
week's fights. Most new teams do poorly at first. LEGENDS OF YORE, however, has
gotten off to a reasonable start at 3-2-1. Nice job! Hey everybody, watch out for
ROLAND, who flew up 22 points in the rankings after mashing BLUDGEON like a melon.
Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was CONDOR, who
dropped 17 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with ZONKER. Well,
everybody's pal SAMOA moved its record to 20-15-0 by defeating ORANGE PARK in the
Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 3 recognition points. An apple a day keeps the
doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the NIYTYOLE ISLAND arena.
Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad HOMES? Big bad HOMES. Big bad
HOMES. NIYTYOLE ISLAND's afraid of the big bad HOMES. Tra la la la la! And you
guys like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause SNOTZI'S II beats feet
every time HOMES smiles at them. Try farming, eh?
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Yes, and another newbie bites the dust as BLUDGEON goes
down under the sword of ROLAND. Thanks to this, ROLAND now has 22 recognition
points. Here's some advice: warriors with little wit and will may encounter
problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, there's the manager of the NIYTYOLE ISLAND giving me the 'cut' sign (or is
that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Well, there goes another Spy
Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Hasta la bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat
it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
All -- Sorry that I was unable to provide some of my illumnating comments for you
last cycle, but things have been a bit hectic... in my life. Not here on
Niatoli. -- Terreg
Gods, no dead at ALL? You didn't have to cease killing each other, you know. In
fact, I would recommend it--clear the ground a little. -- Arenamaster Kaghal
P.S. Haven't I said this before?
Scot Tea and Fallsworth -- You are, by the declaration of Sheila Greywand,
entitled to land here on Niatoli. Sheila Greywand HAS no land here on Niatoli,
and probably has no idea how SMALL this island is. Where does she think I'm
going to get `lands' for every Tom, Dick, and Hairy who graduates from this
benighted sandspit? Still, if you really want a little Niatolian soil to call
your own (above and beyond what clings inescapably to one's boots after a brief
walk down our main street), come by my office and I'll show you the list. It
isn't particularly inspiring, but this is, after all, Niatoli. -- Arenamaster
Kaghal

Does anyone have a favorites potion or a style switch prize that they are willing to
part with? I'm willing to pay top dollar. If so contact me (Papaiz) at DM 26,
Warckers(362).
2/10/98
My name is ANKOS, a mad Frenchie. I just want to know if someone knows a French
manager who's already playing to DM? If yes, in which arenas? Thank for your
response. You can contact me by email at yraleh@usa.net

FACE-TO-FACE XXI
Our next Face-to-Face will be held on 24-26 July 1998, Friday through Sunday, at
the Adam's Mark Hotel in Columbia, South Carolina (1200 Hampton St.). Room rates are
$80.00 per night, 1-4 occupancy. The rooms are blocked, so you can call to reserve
your room (tell them you're with the Reality Simulations convention). Their phone
number is 800-771-7000. Our room block will be released on 2 July, so reserve your
room now.
There is a free hourly shuttle to the airport, as well as free covered parking.
The hotel is located in the downtown area. There is a health club with indoor pool
and jacuzzi (I'm still trying to find out if there is a volleyball court for Sandy) as
well as a sports bar and restaurant attached to the hotel. Look for transportation
info in the tournament information sheet.
The tournament information sheet/strategy sheet should be out sometime in late
May/early June.
If you haven't been to a Face-to-Face before, you're overdue. If you have,
you'll be back. Don't miss this one, it'll be a blast! See you there!
