SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon MURSKA, for I,
Novgorodny Vir, have returned! CHILDREN OF LLYR? Who? BLITZKRIEG is the top team
these days, buddies! Practice pays for MEGALODON, who pummelled O'MALLEY, to pocket
15 points. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more,
after losing 11 points to MEGALODON. (Discrete enough, O'MALLEY?) Our Duelmaster has
lost, folks, lost to KHALHUMS DWARF, BUT BARRISTER is still the Duelmaster because he
has the most recognition points! So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable
walls and challenging dead trees? Someone's got a basic problem...
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Perhaps the warriors of BLITZKRIEG should take up
some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... As a woman of good breeding
scorns the "warriors" of THE BEARS, so did that sorry team shy from BLITZKRIEG If
challenges were horses, O'MALLEY could open up a fast food joint!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not a spymaster
for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious
stupor.
Leave me now, you base fools! More important duties call me. Do not despair!
I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Barrister -- Well done. I am always in favor of the new Duel2Dude taking the throne
on a win, and against a graduating warrior, that too often does not happen. But you
have ably demonstrated your ability. -- Gwalchmai
The Dangerous Criminal was, indeed, dangerous, and criminally negligent where the
imparting of skills was concerned. I wish I'd killed him. -- Morpeth
Blue Eyes -- I've got a weakness for your baby blues.... -- Oisan
Darling Nikki -- Damn, it's the prejudice thing, isn't it? You're Karnhorn, I'm
Shewish, so NATURALLY you try to kill me. And I'm a rotten fighter, so you succeed.
(sigh) Maybe I'll reincarnate as...I dunno, almost anything else. -- Ghost of
Brangwyn
You know, we really need a new Orc. This one's getting ragged around the edges. --

Invitation to Newbie Managers
by Hammer
As a Captain of the Vendetta Cartel, Hammer has recently dissolved the Vendetta
Cartel Crimson Ascension Family. Lady Martilyo and Rook are NO LONGER members of the
Vendetta Cartel.
The Vendetta Cartel is divided into "Families" under the leadership of Captains;
who have been appointed by the VC God Father known throughout the dueling land as
Master Darque.
Hammer is now the Captain of the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe and the veteran
manager extends an invitation for prospective membership as a Probate [ONLY 2 Probate
positions are available in the VC Tarantula Tribe at the present time!] to any Newbie
Manager who qualifies under the following conditions:
1. Newbie Manager MUST have Online Access for Email communications! [Hammer is
presently living in Qatar and Lieutenants Maximillian and Firehawk are living in
Canada; so Email Communication is a MUST for consideration!]
2. Newbie Manager MUST have the time and funds to create 2 new stables to be
placed in 2 separate Slow Arenas [the cost of running 1 stable in a Regular Arena!]
to actively participate on a monthly basis with the other 3 T-Tribe members of the
Vendetta Cartel!
3. Newbie Manager MUST have the DESIRE to be an Active Member of the Vendetta
Cartel as a Tarantula Tribe trainee aka Probate; developing his/her managerial skills
under the mentorship of Hammer and the other VC members; thus proving themselves
worthy to become Vendetta Cartel Lieutenants in the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe!
The Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe lives by the Feud; thereby prospective
Probates are forewarned that membership guarantees instant Friends and instant
Enemies!
Any prospective Probates who 1.) seek to improve their managerial
insights/abilities under the counsel of Hammer and other Vendetta Cartel members 2.)
desire to be active members of an Active Alliance that WILL NOT Dissolve in a Few
Months; building lasting friendships while enjoying Feuding with Common Enemies 3.)
who enjoy sending their gladiators to Tournaments and would strive to see their
manager name listed among the TV and TC winners in the Mailer Tourney Newsletters as
a member of the Vendetta Cartel MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
Send an Email to HammerDM@fastermail.com to introduce yourself and provide
Hammer with a short Bio of your managerial successes/failures and favorite/least
favorite fighting styles; with a listing of your active stable/stables for Hammer to
verify in the online newsletters.
Hammer will choose the 2 prospective Probates for membership in the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe on the basis of who he decides will be most suited [to
Hammer's purposes as the T-Tribe Captain!] from among those responding to this All
Arena Ad on a first response/first acceptance or rejection basis!
-- Hammer; Vendetta Cartel Captain/WordSmith and WeaponSmith of the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe

members). I've been out of the game for many (at least 5) years. I would like to
hear from anyone who remembers me, as well as any Alliance that is seeking to add
experienced managers to their roster. Contact me at:
Anthony Wells

Stanton, MI 48888
