SPY REPORT
I can't believe the violence in NIYTYOLE ISLAND! I still haven't told Mom I'm
writing Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... Like, CHAOTICDISORDER
had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by VEGGIES! Way to go
VEGGIES! VEGGIES like really fought hard to move up to 1st from 5th. Way to go!
MVP award for HOFTA LAUGH? THE SEWING CIRCLE's proud of him after beating BLUFFING
HAMMER and getting 15 points. Talk about yer major upsets! SWILL's match with
LONIGAN cost it a loss of 11 points! Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most
popular guy in all NIYTYOLE ISLAND. He got the most challenges. (But what about
proposals?) CATLOW thinks hers 16-7-1 and studly character is good enough to face up
to the Duelmaster. Any bets? Was that a tear I saw in CATLOW's eye, as she took
over Duelmastership? And wasn't IRON CHEF fit to be tied! Who was the wiseguy that
said NIYTYOLE ISLAND's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Don't Drop Inn? Don't
look at me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. The warriors
of THE SEWING CIRCLE must be getting lonely. They were the most avoided team. Do
you guys know something that I don't? I don't know what SACKETT'S & CO.'s been
doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from THE SEWING CIRCLE,
that's fer sher.
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? What if they had a fight and nobody showed up? I'd be out of a job,
that's what!!!
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits. Remember
you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Iron Chef -- Could have went either way, good fight! -- Kid
Stupor -- Bet you thought you had an easy win, at least that was my thought before I
read the fight. -- Catlow
Tatharli -- Surprise, surprise, I'm better than what people think! -- Clinch
Malo??? -- Just another day in the office -- Lonigan
Arty -- OW!!! Damn that hurt!!! -- Hopalong
Bobby Bigfoot and My Niytyole Island Neighbors -- I thought my stable was registered
for Warrior Maintenance last cycle, but apparently not! CASINO HAMMERZ should be
active this cycle and beyond according to the Email reply I received from the
Gladiatorial Commission! -- Hammer
Clinch -- I hope your mountain falls on you. -- Tatharli
P.S. Aren't you too short to be a Sackett?
Diabolicfiend -- I know many people feel exactly that way about you Karnhorns, but
sometimes I wonder, isn't it type-casting? I mean, ALL Karnhorns can't be fiends,
surely? What about the women, after all? -- Thimbell
P.S. Or are you Ferencian? The Commission seems to have a problem with that little
distinction, figuring that if you LOOK alike, then you must be the same race. Which
I suppose is okay, but then nationalism rears its ugly head....
Wrechedmisery -- Hey, sharing the bath? Sounds like a fun plan to me. I'll be right
over. -- Hofta Laugh
P.S. Will there be room for my rubber ducky? I never take a bath without my ducky.
It protects me from monsters and "formidable foes."
Bobby Bigfoot -- And it's a pleasure to see you here, too. -- Jorja
Malodorousreek -- What, beat me? Which of the five can't? I might challenge him,
her, or it. -- Thimbell
Demonichellion -- Well... yeah. Actually, it is. -- Hofta Laugh (who SHOULD be
listed as Shewish)
P.S. Your manager does most of his hiring at Shews R Us, does he?
Hammer -- Welcome back, I've only been here (with this team) for a short time, but I
was here when you were last active. I can't promise anything, but I'll do what I can
to stay active here. The appearance of Jorja helps, she's fun to talk to and to
challenge. -- Bobby Bigfoot
Jorja -- Welcome! As always, it's good to see you here. -- Bobby Bigfoot (Chaotic
Disorder)
Maverick Hammer -- Some of my teammates teased me about taking so long to finish you
off. -- Diabolic Fiend
Thimbell -- Warning, avoid Chaoticdisorder, four out of five of us can do to you what
I just did. -- Malodorousreek
Bluffing Hammer -- You paced yourself well. -- Amorphasblob
Swill -- BOOM! -- Wreched Misery

Hammer 500-Hammer Run for the Roll Ups
Hosted by Hammer
Niytyole Island DM 33 has dwindled to the point where as of T-482 [duedate
November 3, 2004] there were only 2 active stables listed with 3 inactive stables in
a once thriving and lively regular arena.
During the past 40+ cycles Hammer has been hosting the Hammer Run for the Roll
Ups in DM 33.
Thus far only the Ripper and Slasher categories have produced winners to claim
the 5 New Team Roll Ups Prize for being the first declared Style Master of their
respective categories to graduate.
Every contending stable has gone inactive for one reason or another, including
CASINO HAMMERZ, over the past several months.
Now DM 33 faces the harsh reality that if RSI chooses to close any arenas due to
little or no interest, Niytyole Island could very well head the list of endangered
regular arenas!
In an effort to preserve his beloved island, Hammer is announcing the
continuation of the Hammer Run for the Roll Ups; combined with the Hammer 500 which
will conclude both contests on T-500 [duedate July 13, 2005] should DM 33 continue to
remain open in the coming months.
Attention Hammer Runners!
The Hammer Run is for 0 FE Basic Arena Warriors ONLY. Participants MUST Be
Declared in the P-ads On or Before their First DM 33 Basic Arena Fight to Qualify as
a Hammer Runner! Winners of Each Category will receive 5 New Team Roll Up Gift
Certificates mailed from RSI courtesy of Hammer! [On the condition that they
Graduate on or before T-500; see amended rules below!]
The following Style Master categories remain open with a listing of how many
declared contestants are still entered and their W/L recognition record at the time
of their disappearance from the Hammer Run competition:
(P-ad declarations in parenthesis)
[Manager name/Stable name in brackets] followed by their last known W/L

As you can plainly see, the Hammer Run is still wide open in several categories,
depending upon whether or not the deactivated stables are reactivated for the Hammer
500-Hammer Run for the Roll Ups contest!
Any declared warrior who succeeds in graduating by T-500 will win 5 New Team
Roll Ups Gift Certificates mailed from RSI courtesy of Hammer! Gift Certs will be
awarded as soon as possible upon official graduation if the graduation occurs prior
to T-500.
On T-500 the highest ranked ACTIVE declared warrior in the category(s) without a
Graduate will win 2 New Team Roll Ups Gift Certificates mailed from RSI courtesy of
Hammer!
Additional Hammer 500-Hammer Run for the Roll Ups Gift Cert Prizes:
Five (5) Gift Certs will be awarded to the manager whose warrior claims the
Duelmaster Throne on T-500.
Two (2) Gift Certs will be awarded to the manager(s) whose warrior(s) are listed
as the highest Active Challenger Champion, Champion, Challenger Adept, Adept,
Challenger Initiate and Initiate on T-500.
In the event that NO Duelmaster is seated upon the Duelmaster Throne on T-500
there will be Three (3) Gift Certs awarded to the managers whose Active warriors are
tied for recognition points at the Top of the Challenger Champions recognition
standings. [Therefore, the Top CC will be awarded 3 Gift Certs instead of 2 for
being ranked as the highest CC on T-500].
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager(s) whose warrior(s) graduate on
T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager(s) whose warrior(s) receive
their graduation announcement on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager(s) whose warrior(s) are listed
in the Top Warrior Of Each Style newsletter announcement on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose warrior is listed as the
Chartered Recognition Leader on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose warrior is listed as the
Unchartered Recognition Leader on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose warrior is listed as the
Popularity Leader on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose warrior is listed as This
Week's Favorite on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose stable is listed as The
Current Top Team on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose stable is listed as the
Number One Team On The Move Point Gainer on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose stable is listed as the
Top Career Honors Chartered Team on T-500.
One (1) Gift Cert will be awarded to the manager whose stable is listed as the
Top Career Honors Unchartered Team on T-500.
SHOULD RSI CHOOSE TO CLOSE DM 33 PRIOR TO T-500 ONLY THE HIGHEST ACTIVE DECLARED
STYLE MASTER CONTESTANTS WILL BE AWARDED TWO (2) GIFT CERTS AND ALL OTHER PRIZE
CATEGORIES WILL BE DECLARED NULL AND VOID BY HAMMER!!!!!!!!!
The purpose of this contest is to restore DM 33 to a lively and entertaining
arena!
Hammer is willing to foot the Prize bill in a last ditch effort to save Niytyole
Island from deletion if RSI and the Gladiatorial Commission decide that more arenas
need to be closed due to lack of participation and interest.
Should this effort fail to spare DM 33 from deletion, then Hammer is prepared to
transfer CASINO HAMMERZ to another arena if Niytyole Island is closed by RSI and the
Gladiatorial Commission.

Battle Royal 4
The Battle Royal arena contests are one of the purest tests of manager skill
available. The rules are simple. The scoring is simple. The updates are live. If
you would like to participate, simply get a team ready in Talcama in the next month
and announce in the personals that you're in. The prize is bragging rights and
having your name along side previous winners (Doc Steele, Manray Frothingslosh, and
Manager). It is a brutal contest, but it is a lot of fun!
Basic rules: No avoiding other contest teams. Score = Wins + Kills - Losses.
Only fights against other BR teams count. First team to 25 wins!
BR4 begins in Talcama (DM 18) on turn 502, due on Jan 29, 2005.
