SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Nothing works for a team like victory (How's
that for a perceptive observation?) as VEGGIES can attest... Practice pays for
NIMBLE NEUTER, who pummelled STUPOR, to pocket 15 points. Win some, lose some.
Speaking of which, DARTMAN was winsome, after beating STONE FACE HAMMER and seeing
him lose 4 points. LUCKY LADY HAMMER found out that NIYTYOLE ISLAND isn't a
democracy. You've gotta be the best to be Duelmaster here! Word has it one team in
NIYTYOLE ISLAND is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
So much to report, so little time! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from the
lion, so did the "warriors" in NIYTYOLE ISLAND avoid ARENA FELINES. As a woman of
good breeding scorns the "warriors" of COLGATE DAYS, so did that sorry team shy from
ARENA FELINES Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral
hygiene? Whatever it is, STUPOR is the most challenged warrior. MAVERICK HAMMER
found himself challenged by a warrior 18 below: CATNIP. CATNIP of ARENA FELINES
kept his wits as he was beat by MAVERICK HAMMER.
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
All good things must come to an end. As the seasons change, and the creatures
of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place. Like a mixed
metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid NIYTYOLE ISLAND farewell-- Novgorodny

PERSONAL ADS
Stray -- Congratulations on Vanquishing me for the DM 33 Throne! Hammer has NOT
received the newsletter as yet to review the fight. However, he does know from
online surveillance that I have indeed received my Graduation Notice, but Hammer will
NOT know my Faves until after I have gone on to ADM in my pursuit of overtaking WILD
CARD HAMMER in DM 106. Obviously I was the Next Victim and I Salute You for Your
Achievement! -- Lucky Lady Hammer
P.S. Hammer just received the T-473 newsletter where BEER BELLY lost his life on the
DM 33 Arena Sands. He sends his condolences to the JOYS OF BOOZE stable and is well
satisfied that the Death occurred on the sands instead of in the Infirmary!
17 July 2004
I am currently trying to put together a favorites chart for AD warriors. I
desperately need help with this. What I need are style, favorite rhythm (ex.:
hi/low), favorite weapons, and tactics. What would be great is if you could send me
a copy of the invite with the warrior's name, id#, and arena blacked out. This way,
I can verify that this is an actual warrior. Minis will work, too!
For those interested, I have both a challenge style vs. style and a match-up style
vs. style chart. There's about 250 fights calculated in these charts, and I'll be
happy to send a copy to anyone who asks. You can contact me (if you're a free world
player) at: Rick Stringer, Merit/East, SCI, P.O. Box 500, Georgetown, DE 19947-0500.
If you're in prison, just send a diplo to: Baphomet, Mgr. Knights Templar (568), DM
#47--North Fork. (I also have a lot of other charts and info for anyone who wants
it.) Thanks!
