SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in STORMCROWE this turn, and let's
start with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the
difference, as ROAD WARRIORS is pushed out of top team by A DEAL'S A DEAL, who came
from 2nd with a 5-0-0 this turn. The A DEAL'S A DEAL guild has had a 5-0-0 turn and
deserves to be watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can
lead. And let's see, MOLDY MORT fought EMBEZZLING SCRIBE and gained 20 points and
contributed to A DEAL'S A DEAL's 5-0-0. ICELINIA has lost to B.F. GOODRICH, falling
12 points, while helping make NORTHERN LIGHTS a 2-2-0 turn. Due to hers absence and
inability to defend the throne, HOT LIPS has lost the title of Duelmaster. And not
without some honor, ZOEY now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of STORMCROWE.
Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters
do dishes at The Shadow's Fountain until they win. Maybe?
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. SUPERIOR FORCES has cause to stand
tall, as they were STORMCROWE's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a
team to beat. And avoiding SUPERIOR FORCES more than any other team we find ROAD
WARRIORS. STORMCROWE, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well,
sports fans, take notice that ICELINIA from NORTHERN LIGHTS was STORMCROWE's most
challenged warrior this turn. In a brave attempt, SANTA from AMOEBA challenged up 18
points to fight AUNTY MACASSAR from the A DEAL'S A DEAL stable. SANTA perhaps got
his just desserts, seeing as he was beat by AUNTY MACASSAR and ended up with 52
recognition points.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? Is it really true that STORMCROWE has more dishwashers per capita
that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Well, I'm burning daylight here in STORMCROWE and I've a long road
ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--

Emily Strange -- To fight a Strange fight, or was that a Strange fighter? Ha! --
Hen-Pecked Harry
Lulu -- Can't help myself...WHATTA LULU!!! (sorry) Ahhh...a bit of self-
approvaling. For myself, a recurring necessity. -- Bertha
Icelinia -- And the crowd goes wild. This town sure appreciates a good knock-down
drag-out contest. -- Aunty Macassar
Shard -- Zing, Zap, Zowie -- Zoey
Hot Lips -- I love your burning kisses! The bursts of steam are especially enticing.
We're an explosive combination! -- Frostflare
P.S. The skills are good, too.
Zoey -- Ma'am, it's an everlasting sorrow to me that I'm going off and leaving you
out here in the cold, cruel world! I do hope and believe that you'll be along soon,
and we can have some high old times on the Isle. -- Shard
P.S. I won my first fight on the Isle, and I did it for you.
Aunty Macassar -- I hope to grow up to be JUST LIKE you. You're a roll model. --
Icelinia
P.S. Butterflake.
P.P.S. Although I don't suppose macassar oil is much like butter?
Ree Flector -- That was a cunning ploy, the use of shiny bits on your shield to blind
your opponent. You didn't think that up yourself, did you? It doesn't seem like an
orcish sort of thing. -- Walrus
P.S. Ah...nothing in the way of a racial slur intended. Just, orcs are more direct,
usually.
B.F. Goodrich -- You wouldn't happen to be related to the Goodriches who make those
FANTASTIC milkshakes, would you? Because I have conceived a sudden yen for one of
those. Rich, thick, creamy, chocolaty.... -- Frostbite
B.F. Goodrich -- I don't say that someone running into me on the road would improve
my health, but I'm a hefty fellow, and I wouldn't improve theirs, either. -- Walrus
P.S. Not to mention the teeth.
Zoey -- That sounds like a plan. -- Icelinia
Applejack -- (alarmed) Stay out of vicious circles! You end up biting yourself on
the back of the neck. -- Jorja
Arenamaster Nhor -- I'm a big fan of not being remorseless or any other kind of
signal. A low profile, that's my goal. -- L.P. Shard

The Olympics have arrived!
The Mordanti Olympics, having been gone for six years, have returned to the Mordanti
Alliance, sponsored by Amicitia Primoris. Teams have competed against each other for
recognition and notoriety four times in the past. It is far past time for the fifth
Mordanti Olympics to be held. The Mordanti Olympics shall be held in the Mordant
arena (DM-1) from May 1st (T544) through Oct 30 (T557). There will be a
'registration period' lasting until T543, where teams will be allowed to register by
activating in Mordant and declaring their participation in the personals. Rules will
be posted in the Mordant arena (DM-1) newsletter no later than T543, but shall be
available online before then. An announcement will be made as to where they will be
posted. Prizes will be awarded to the winners.
