SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out TRICORUS to see
what's new. Like, DARK HORSEMEN had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1
spot by RAISING R'LYEH! Way to go RAISING R'LYEH! MVP award for NYARLATHOTEP?
RAISING R'LYEH's proud of her after beating BARNACLE and getting 15 points. Talk
about yer big time losers! HASARCH got smashed by CARGO, and lost 12 points! This
Duelmaster is like something else! COLOROUTOFSPACE stopped GARANH dead in his
tracks! Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask me!
Look, you guys stick to fighting, all right? DARK HORSEMEN was TRICORUS' most
avoided team. Is there some award for that? I don't know what RAISING R'LYEH's been
doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from DARK HORSEMEN, that's
fer sher.
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you?
Write! (Or have someone write for you.)
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Its
been really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Coloroutofspace -- What the heck? Are you trying to build up some kind of reputation
as a killer of Dark Horsemen? Don't do that again! -- Ghost of Tialvai Graywind
I was trying to bury the Khalhums Dwarf in the sand as an act of friendship and
mercy. He's a dwarf, after all, and probably doesn't feel right with all this sky
overhead. Not to mention the snow. -- Garanh
What I want to know is, if this is the quality of Veteran Mercenary who survives to
BECOME a veteran, what does this say of the rest of the people on the appropriate
fields of battle? Or does this guy have some other skill, using a ballista, maybe,
that doesn't transfer into the arena (for which I am grateful!)? -- Vargoi
Barnacle -- I was once told that if you put a barnacled boat on the shore and burn
straw under it, the barnacles EXPLODE off. Is this true? -- Hasarch
Drunken Sailor -- With a name like that, you could be a standby. But you'd have to
lose more. -- Barochdal
Congratulations to Sandy, Tourney Victor. I'd drink, too. -- Jorja and the Dark
Horsemen
