SPY REPORT
Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day,
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Like a new team fighting for the first time
and entering the official rankings, GOD OR GODDESS got 4-1-0 to come in 3rd. STREET
WALKERS had cause to celebrate, after JOSIE WALES got 29 points by beating DAN MACK
GRU. DAN MACK GRU certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to
JOSIE WALES and losing 20 points in the process! CALLOUS COURTNEY successfully
staved off a grab for the roses by LADY WINTER of NORTHERN LIGHTS. Does STORMCROWE
have no one talented enough to dethrone her? Word has it one team in STORMCROWE is
taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas?
Ah, the duel! The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd! Ask not for
whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
All good things must come to an end. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond
my control, I must take my leave of this place. Like a mixed metaphor, and an
overtaxed simile, I now bid STORMCROWE farewell-- Novgorodny Vir

Jorja -- Looks like it's just you and me. I'm trying to get Sporkis and Scruffy Puff
to start new teams here once they start back up in Lapur. -- Roadkill
Dan Mac Gru -- Well, that was a shocker, to say the least. -- Callous Courtney
I hate dwarfs, I really do! -- Slambo
Gelidnia Hale -- Geez, maybe if we stop avoiding your team you could fight someone
besides us. -- Josie Wails and the Street Walkers
Stormwind -- I thought I had you, well fought. -- Mini Driver
Congrats to Lord Protector Dan Mac Gru!!! -- Roadkill and the Street Walkers
Callous Courtney -- It is with relief that I hand over the title to you. Wear it
well. -- Dan Mack Gru
A Convicted Assassin? Can a golem be an idiot? If so, it is. -- Lady Winter
Josie Wales -- Do you walk the streets of Cornwall, too? -- Gelidnia Hale
Mini Driver -- Size doesn't matter when I get set to blow you off the road.
Fortunately, in this weather a dip in the bay is no hardship. -- Stormwind
Why was I supposed to be hostile to the Mordant Deserter? If I'd been in Mordant, I
would have deserted, too. -- White Bear

NEW TEAMS IN THE TEMPORARY TOURNAMENT ARENA (DM 85)
Please note that all new teams created at the Face-to-Face were temporarily placed in
a temporary Tournament Arena, DM 85. If you requested that your team be placed in a
specific arena, it has already transferred to that arena. Any teams not transferred
out of DM 85 by October 1 will be deleted. If you have questions about any of your

WINTER FACE-TO-FACE IN SUNNY ARIZONA!
Our next winter FTF will be held in Tempe, Arizona, January 14-16, 2011. It will be
held at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Tempe, Arizona (480-894-7444), the same hotel as
last year by popular request. Room rates are $129.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, which
includes full cooked breakfast, complimentary manager's reception (yes, really!), free
airport shuttle, free parking and free high speed internet. There's a fitness center,
jacuzzi, and pool. The rooms are blocked--please make your reservation by December 22
before the block is released! (This is prime season for Phoenix, and people have been
unable to book rooms because they waited too long.) Look for the tournament info
sheet and minioverviews some time in December. We hope you're all looking forward to
it and that we will see you there!
