SPY REPORT
Welcome ARDIVENT. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights
have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Woof! WRATHMEN were a
bunch of dogs after THE 27 CLUB got through with 'em! 3rd ain't so sweet as 1st!
Phhbltt! Too much drinking and too little dodging gave WE GOT GAME a 0-2-0! I got a
good laugh out of it! Ya gotta be quick on yer feet! Keep your elbow off the table!
Thrust! Block out the pain! THE 27 CLUB is now ranked 1st with a 4-1-0 turn.
DUNGEON CELL showed ARDIVENT what they were made of as they fought with a vengeance
to walk off with 3-0-0. What's with HEADSMAN? He actually beat WRATHMEN's BAERUS,
and walked away with 15 more points from the fight. Major screwup at WRATHMEN.
BAERUS lost 8 points to HEADSMAN. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe BAERUS will
provide more easy wins... Try as he might, RUY LOPEZ wasn't good enough at
persuading USURPER to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... Advice to fighters
with a 1 will--give up fighting!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... The most avoided team
was THE 27 CLUB. In my day, no team with a 155-132-6 would scare me off! What's the
problem, WRATHMEN? How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior,
CHYNARAE! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. MILDRED LEONA looked pretty sick and surprised when
she learned FANDILS is sending her to the Dark Arena! Whadd'she expect with a
8-13-1? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty.
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here?
ARDIVENT is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time for
my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

For your Yuletide bloodletting pleasure, sung to the tune of "Winter Wonderland."
Slay bells ring, are ya listenin'?
Beneath the moon, blood is glistenin'!
A grisly sight, we're happy tonight,
Watchin' all the Dark Arena fights!
In the daytime we can catch the action,
as the Duelmaster defends his crown!
All the criticals and bloody drama,
and if you're nasty you can challenge down!
Later on, by tavern fire,
managers, they'll conspire,
to face unafraid, the challenges made,
Duelin' in that Alastari land!
Wishing all good D2 managers a Happy Holidays!
