SPY REPORT
Good day, in ARDIVENT a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news. And let's see, FOND MEMORY fought
POLITE BEGGAR and gained 15 points and contributed to BLUVALLEY WARRIORS' 1-4-0.
YAMCHA has lost to COURIER, falling 14 points, while helping make DRAGONBALL Z a
1-2-0 turn. Somebody's not going to like this, (then again, somebody will), but our
Duelmaster, LH PUTTGRASS, has died, and FIENDISH GLEE has killed him. Tell me, is
nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Seaside Manor uses
trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle!
He who challenges well, fights well. He who avoids without cause, shall lose
for good reasons. My mama told me that one. CLEVER LINGO has cause to stand tall,
as they were ARDIVENT's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to
beat. And avoiding CLEVER LINGO more than any other team we find DEATHTONGUE.
ARDIVENT, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. Is it really true that ARDIVENT 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. Always good to rest in ARDIVENT, but never good to wear out my
welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Ol' Joe Collin -- SAS? Hell no, I just want to kill you! -- Humorous Whim
Chi-Chi -- And a cha-cha-cha to you, madam. -- Ol' Joe
P.S. You're too short.
Give her time, and she'll grow.
Courier -- Hmm. Must be the experience thing, I guess. -- Filaree
P.S. And bad luck for you on the match-up.
Yamcha -- At first I thought you were a motorcycle, but I see now that you're a sort
of clubhouse. Odd. -- Lillee Jo
Opurt -- Oh, poot. -- Marli Blubell
If that guy Volunteered to do anything with/for me, I'd refuse him. He's too shifty.
-- Vanice
LH Puttgrass -- In theory, I'm not here any more, and if that is the case, I wave you
a fond farewell. If not, we may be meeting once again, eh? -- Otana Varhil
Oliver -- Uh, right, what she said. -- Dallow Trine
P.S. I don't want to go to Lirith Kai. Do I look Adantri?
Not enough beads on your clothes.
Banana Jr -- Oh, cheese, tell me *I* didn't do that! "It"? Awful. -- Lonjo-Wellan
Lurker -- You sure snuck up on me that time. -- Kuvelor
Grunt -- It takes more than sound effects to win a fight, you know. -- Torrins
30 April 2003
All -- Remember to put your arena number on your strategy sheets. Strategies turned
in without an arena number run the risk of missing the turn. -- NAIEI
10 May 2003
To All -- Fellow managers, I humbly request your help. My team (Ex Oblivione) was
started in Monuntial (DM 34) back in '92. They were active for seven months. I have
lost all early traces of them. If any of you can help with copies of relevant
newsletters or, if you fought one of my warriors, copies of the fights, I would
greatly appreciate it. I only have one of my original warriors left from the early
team now active in DM 60. You can diplo me with any info here in the wonderful city
of Aradi. Thank you in advance. -- Enigma, manager Ex Oblivione
