SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for CLIFFHOME. Cut this out and put it in
your scrapbooks, THE LOST SOULS! 'Cause they got 3-1-1 and moved up to 3rd! MVP
award for SLICK RICK? FORCE OF FIVE's proud of him after beating HARANDUR and
getting 13 points. Talk about yer big time losers! PEDRO got smashed by ROBERT
GERMAN, and lost 9 points! This Duelmaster is like something else! STEVEN SCIMITAR
stopped VENOMOUS CONCUBINE dead in hers tracks! I hear the top team insists all
their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. Like, is
KORRIBIE popular, or what? She was challenged the most in all of CLIFFHOME! She's
got a 18-35-1, is that good? For sure, I was holding my breath when I found out MISS
JULY challenged NOR'EASTER. After all, haven't THE LOST SOULS and DU BASHERS had a
long standing duel in CLIFFHOME? It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but
NOR'EASTER wants me to write about it since he beat MISS JULY. Satisfied?
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? I was SO depressed when I heard JINGAREE got killed. She was just a
kid, and didn't get a fair chance in CLIFFHOME, or anything! 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
Eternal Bob -- I don't think I'd want to be eternal if it meant shrinking like that.
That's, I dunno, it just doesn't look like something I'd want to do. Be short, I
mean. Well, not TOO short, although if a woman is too tall, men get nervous. Afraid
we'll bop them on the head if it's too easy to do, I guess. -- Korribie
There are better places to bop. -- Ed.
Nor'Easter -- That's false advertising. -- Runabout
P.S. Your team name.
Try It -- Thanks, I did. And if the arenamaster hadn't stopped me, I WOULD have
buried you in the sand. It's a thing I've always wanted to do. -- Harandur
Figaro -- A Rirorni! (foams at the mouth a little, jumps up and down and screams,
etc.) I hate Rirorni! So does the arenamaster, and he was disgusted that you were
allowed into the arena at all. He was...he was disgusted because you were fighting
in an un-Alastarian fashion. Yeah, that's it. It was the horse. He disapproved of
the horse. And besides, it made a mess on the sands. -- Dingil Bill, groping
desperately for excuses
Slick Rick -- Yep, slick as if you'd been oiled. Phew! You WERE oiled! What a
reek. You're supposed to dab that stuff on, not BATHE in it, you know. When it's
strong like that, all it attracts is bugs. -- Jingaree
Lordlings of Yore -- Fare well, and I hope they appreciate your hard-won skills back
in Yore. -- the warriors of Jinda-Ban

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
