Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and I'm going to give you a spy report!. It looks like the guys(?) at STORMBLADES had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them in 4th place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for KALISTA VHAI, who flew up 13 points in the rankings after mashing CONVICTED THIEF like a melon. Keep your eye on this gal. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. BEER was defeated by IKE NIGHTSHIELD and drops 9 points. Unlike most arenas, 21 managed to get his challenge off against the 19-15-0 ROCKSNAIL. Our battling duelmaster 21 has managed to hold the title, fending off ROCKSNAIL's none too subtle advances. Better luck next time, DELVERS. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd! Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the RODEKI arena. Did you hear that DELVERS was most avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of DELVERS' warriors, I'm not surprised! For those of you who like math, try this one: DELVERS + Weapons That go Boom = THE SOVEREIGN + Avoid City. Well just about everybody wants a piece of EARLY OUT, who was this week's most challenged warrior. Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' category, 52 PICK UP was mashed by NIX BLACKHEART, who let 52 PICK UP know that killing members of STORMBLADES is a no-no. Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh? Well, there's the manager of the RODEKI giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors.

I truly love those 4 skill learns, thank you. -- 21 Anvengen Kale -- Feel better now? -- Scorpio Coach -- I was kind of hoping you would've kicked rocks so I could've gotten a drink at some of the Accolades. -- Scopio P.S. You and Harby feel like doing a 2 on 2 contest? Lady Kale & myself vs. you two? Think on it and something can be drawn up. 52 -- It's fine, it's fine. To be honest Nissa wasn't ever the greatest gladiator. She knew it could have come at any moment. And while your wish of a greater replacement is well received, you should have seen the absolute trash they gave me. The the Dark Arena with both of them! -- Avengen Kale Scorpio -- Congratulations on the Charter!! -- Kale Lord Sky -- *knock knock* Gotta hard head on me huh? Nothing personal, I assure, you but, you know how it is. -- Rolayt Mit Downer -- You're just too good!! Though, I'm beginning to suspect your name comes from what I feel when my weapon breaks... -- Nix Blackheart Avengen Kale -- I'm not going to partake in the Slaughter Fest this time around, but keep me informed on your fighters, and tell me all about them. *smiles* -- Scorpio Pan -- You fought well, I don't prefer to hurt a lady of your prestige, have a good day, Indy Pan. *bows gracefully* -- Ike Nightshield *baring fangs and glaring at Rolayt Mit* -- Lord Marcus Silver Lady -- *spits on ground* Next fight, we fight to the death! KD on 10s!! -- Jade *in between shots of whiskey* And again three-two. We're glad you're staying, Coach. -- Harby P.S. Drop by the mine and we'll play cards for nuggets.
