SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
SNOWBOUND brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, THE MYRMIDONS, since
LIFE IMPACTS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Gee, I'm
impressed, a 4-1-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, MIDDLE WAY 6, the Fates teach
humility, and the Fates are proud. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see
THOR win a fight and gain 18 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, THOR beat SHOBART TEEGUE
and SHOBART TEEGUE lost 13 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the
spice of life, SNOWBOUND may be getting bland, as 4-H stays top dog in the city. The
Victory Tavern, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this
stuff? From SNOWBOUND's trash dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. DANGER DANGER, I suppose you'll be glad to know you
were this turn's most avoided team. Care to know who is the most afraid of you? And
it looks like LIFE IMPACTS avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be
losers, if you ask me. Hmph. SMOKEY BEAR was challenged more times this turn than
the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. A big yahoo goes out to SYNERGY this turn,
for revenging PUBLIC ENEMY's bloodfeud against THE MYRMIDONS' warrior VERRA. Heh,
heh, heh. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if the fate catches up
with you sooner that later?
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Just wait 'till next time I show up
here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide

PERSONAL ADS
Red Alert -- Please accept my apology for a final howl. -- Bulldog
Embezzling Scribe -- I just couldn't let you get away with that. -- Circle K
Smokey Bear -- I was too busy calculating and missed the smoke signals. Salute. --
Math
Ladiro Maels -- I like winning, but I sure am getting tired. -- 4-H
Threshpack -- It was my lucky day. -- Purple Ace
Y'all say howdy ta muh new 'un done be named Quality. Yup. -- Snuffy, Life Impacts
Jenna -- Trust me, with experience you'll get better. I should know, look at my
record. *grins*. -- Thor
Will Robinson -- A marathon effort, and you taught well. Thank you. -- Thor
Ghost of Grief -- Sorry for killing you, that wasn't part of the plan. Looks like
I'm about to be very popular with your team mates... -- Verra
Jenna -- What happened? I thought you had me to start with, especially when I could
barely respond through your flurry of attacks.... -- Beleg
Synergy -- That did not go to plan, well, not to my plan anyway, yours seemed to work
pretty well. -- Rolan
Pec Killer and Public Enemy -- Sorry about the loss of Grief, please note that it
wasn't a revenge killing, nor was it in expectation of another loss to Synergy (which
happened, unfortunately). -- Sigurd and The Myrmidons
Math -- And when to divide and conquer, no doubt. -- Moldar Nay
Sigurd and the Myrmidons except Smaug -- Thanks, but it does happen. I've been
playing this game too long to believe that anybody is invincible, and Elena was no
goddessling: 9-9-9-15-15-16-11. The combination of single-digit size with single-
digit con is always more or less vulnerable. -- Jorja
P.S. We generally don't bloodfeud, except by accident.
Thor -- Your concern is appreciated, but I don't think Jorja's sent more than a dozen
gladiators to the Dark Arena in twenty years of play. If that. -- Jenna Kuul
Only ONE tourney participant, and that a Lord Protector? Oh, well, we salute him
anyway. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
4-H -- Why are you still here? Oh, the style thing. Bummer. We need to back the
Commission into a corner and get a better graduation rate for your style. This is
rank prejudice. -- Ladiro Maels
Taco Bell -- One of my favorites, right up there with fried chicken. Tacos,
burritos, quesadillas! -- Shobart Teegue
High Voltage -- I bet that shocked you. I can be a real live wire when I get going.
-- Moldar Nay
Beleg Bloodaxe -- But my record remains unbroken. That's good for something. I
don't know WHAT, but surely for something. -- Jenna Kuul
