SPY REPORT
Greetings, Warriors of SNOWBOUND. Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir to
give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport. Say what you will
about blind luck and dirty fighting, but DRUID'S GROVE will tell you 114-111-10 is
nothing to laugh at... DRUID'S GROVE had cause to celebrate, after EVALON ELKHORN
got 27 points by beating BENSON HEDGES. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which,
FENDER GRALE was winsome, after beating SWEET AIR and seeing it lose 13 points.
Well, Duelmaster YAIWE challenged DRUID'S GROVE's STRYKER. Is a 30-4-0 good enough?
Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by STRYKER, of DRUID'S GROVE,
who despite a 17-23-0 couldn't overcome SNOWBOUND's Number 1. Word has it one team
in SNOWBOUND is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the
little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the
mountaintops, so stand the warriors of MIDDLE WAY 6, alone and unchallenged. Like a
pup with its tail between its legs, IN THE NICOTINE scurried away from MIDDLE WAY 6.
Oh, the shame! Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral
hygiene? Whatever it is, STRYKER is the most challenged warrior.
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
BENSON HEDGES of IN THE NICOTINE put away EVALON ELKHORN of DRUID'S GROVE. Let's
hope Lady Luck continues to smile upon EVALON ELKHORN! Oh hard! that to strike a
flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Do not think spyreporting in SNOWBOUND is the highlight of my life. Keep those
sands bloody and the buzzards fat! SNOWBOUND, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has
agreed to foot my bill at The Victory Tavern. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

(sigh) No more triple decker burgers with cheese and bacon. -- Cass Dolan
P.S. And hold the fires.
Cannon Ball -- My, you're a big one, aren't you? And so red on top! -- Irina Jasse
P.S. But you're mean.
Posion -- Not a problem, I just took an antidote. Worked like a charm. -- Leanni
Maris
L&M -- Doesn't that mean there were two of you out there? No one could expect me to
defeat TWO. -- Gobert Hinny
P.S. I'm over seven feet tall. Why am I not listed as a dwarf?

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.
