SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon ROCANIS, for
I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! YIELD had cause to celebrate, after BIG 'UN got 15
points by beating FREM HARID. FREM HARID certainly had a baffled expression on his
face, after losing to BIG 'UN and losing 8 points in the process! Those who hoped
for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by DILILAH FRANN, of MIDDLE WAY 20, who
despite a 10-11-0 couldn't overcome ROCANIS' Number 1. Word has it one team in
ROCANIS is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like the noble eagle soaring amongst
the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of INCONSISTENT FURY, alone and unchallenged.
The warriors of INCONSISTENT FURY found their efforts at combat frustrated as YIELD
apparently had more important things to do than fight. Everyone is famous for
fifteen minutes, and DOBAHEI is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't YIELD
proud!
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! Oh hard! that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!
Leave me now, you base fools! Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat!
ROCANIS, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Grub &
Rub Bar and Bistro. 'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir

PERSONAL ADS
Nairon -- Jorja said I should "get to know people" here. I was working on that,
dammit! Now somebody else is going to have to do it, and they'll mess it up. --
irritated ghost of Frem Harid
P.S. You know, I bet that was an input error. Maybe I should look into this. I
know that Jorja wouldn't give a basher a scimitar.
P.P.S. WHAT? The Dark Arena? No way!
In Hiding -- Better you than me, I didn't have a THING to say. -- Charlie Eksa
Airslicer Dan -- Ah, but now you have to figure out what to do when it isn't air you
face, hmm? But you'll work it out, I'm sure, and in the meantime, how about dinner?
-- Dililah Frann
P.S. Do you dance?
Purple Kitten -- That color drives me NUTS. It's hard to accessorize and doesn't go
with ANYTHING I have. -- Abelinda Chase
Balzec -- So what's the deal with this ruthless lack of mercy? A little mercy,
provided it falls from the heavens unstrained, is a good thing. -- Ebria Gannet
Fonzeth -- Those housekeepers! Always trying to run things. Ignore her. -- Ebria
Banthius -- I hope your plans for revitalizing Rocanis do not include a contest. In
my experience, contests are at best a short-term fix: they get new bodies on the
sands for a while, but by the end of the contest, and often sooner, the newcomers
fade out. They have no lasting commitment to the arena in question. Fine for them,
everybody has their own priorities, but not so good for the arena. -- Jorja
Jorja -- What the commission think of.... -- Banthius
Dobahei -- Wow you're a fast one, or maybe I'm just slow... *grin* -- Fonzeth Hulgta
Dilulah Frann -- Ouch ouch ouch That hurt lots. -- Airslveer Dan
Sawtooth -- Broken hand! *growl* -- Rua Rosedancer
Ebria Gannet -- Check check tag, that was interesting. -- Balzec
Abeluna Chase -- Wow! Zorg though ya had me. -- Purple Kitten
