SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of NIATOLI ISLAND! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. What's with PEA POD? He
actually beat NIATOLI ISLAND's FRATSFA SLAVE, and walked away with 17 more points
from the fight. Laughs were big at VEGGIES while they watched CARROT TOP clobber
RINTIRISSE. She lost 8 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.
TATHARLI was reminded on the sands why WRETCHEDMISERY is Duelmaster. I suppose you
want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. How long have I been here? I got people to see,
places to go...
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

Tatharli
Olentangy -- Ah-ah, you've let that red-headed temper get the better of your
judgment, my little friend! Calm down and take it slowly, by the numbers. --
Thimbell
Bing Gao -- Heck. -- Irinkesta
P.S. If you want an extended, meaty comment, you have to talk, too. I can't make
extended comments about the random thoughts that pass silently through someone else's
mind.
I had hoped to open with something more significant, but the win will do. --

HAMMER ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT
Be it known from the highest mountains to the darkest alleys of Alastari that
the veteran manager known far and wide as Hammer has now officially retired from
sponsoring contests as of September 15, 2005.
What a long time ago was a fun motivated activity to help promote our common
DM/D2 gaming interest in an effort to promote the growth and competitiveness of
selected arenas has become a far from fun experience.
In other words Hammer has had it!
The combination of real life situations interfering with the time needed to
effectively sponsor a contest, plus the attitudes expressed during such sponsorship
interference has led to Hammer closing his personal coin coffers and retiring from
his planned sponsorship of any future contests.
There are others in our close knit gaming community who are well able to step up
to the plate and continue sponsoring contests that make the basic game a fun
experience for all those who choose to compete and interact in such future endeavors.
Hammer thanks all managers both active and inactive who helped to make the
Hammer sponsored contests a historical and entertaining experience well worth the
time, effort and money spent over the past several years.
May the Cheers and the Jeers of future contests build upon the legacies of those
who have paved the way in years gone by to help make this game what it is today.
Hammer has no regrets for the part he has played in that history.
19 September 2005
I'd like to say hello to everyone I know that is still around after my being gone for
five years. Hope to see you all on the sands, and may your weapons strike true and
your shields protect you (except, of course, against MY warriors *grin*)!! -- Lord
Xiang, D2-101
