SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, SNOWBOUND? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Of course, we're all terribly impressed
to see SCANDAL win a fight and gain 13 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, JANICE KOLE beat
MRS. NOODLE and MRS. NOODLE lost 7 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety
is the spice of life, SNOWBOUND may be getting bland, as RARE BREED stays top dog in
the city. I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this? You
want to know what's new, don't you, SNOWBOUND?
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. 2215
BOURBON ST, 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 OPEN SESAME avoided
them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph.
VIOLA WING 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. Whoa! I'll even buy TWO HEADED MONSTER a
drink tonight! Anyone who can come back from the Dark Arena, I want to be on his
good side! Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing
these kinds of weapons?
What does the SNOWBOUND arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Just wait 'till next time I show
up here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! I see the crowds are getting restless, I
must leave now-- Snide Clemens

Where: Lapur DM 29
When: Turn 1000 -- August 6th, 2024 is the due date.
Announcing Lapur's 1000th turn. Over the past 38+ years many legendary fighters and
managers have attended the Lapurian Arena. If you are one of those managers and have a
inactive team, send them into fight for turn 1000. If you have a tourney team in Lapur
and need some new recruits for the next tourney, send them in to fight in the Dark
Arena on turn 1000. Load up the Dark Arena with a page full of fights in the
newsletter and make it memorable. For this one turn join in and celebrate the arena's
1000th. C'mon dust off your old Lapurian warriors and send them to fight during the
day or night for turn 1000 on August 6th!
