SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly JURINE games. ENRON caught the eye of many in the
gladiatorial commission as it skillfully bested A BELL AZIZIZI and was awarded 17
points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ENRON put down A
BELL AZIZIZI, causing him to lose 13 points of recognition in the process. Due to
his absence and inability to defend the throne, ALIZARIN DAMASK has lost the title of
Duelmaster. The city has turned out in honor of GEORGE DUBYA, for with his arena
victory he may now lay claim to the highest position in the city! Heed this! A seer
has warned that if exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish!
Just remember...5 or 7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. I saw one fighter that warriors
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. BLADE AND BLOOD is feared. This
much I can say. Apparently the stalwarts of DEATH BY STUPIDITY are catching the bulk
of jests down at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids. Loose
talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many
fighters are after A BELL AZIZIZI. Watch your back!
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Some say a warrior is judged by the way
he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in JURINE. Nice atmosphere you have here! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a
maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

Snotman -- Euwh. Blow your nose! -- A Bell Azizizi
P.S. Not on me.
Putty Tat -- Silly tat! Did you think I'd let you sharpen your claws on MY
furniture? Silly, SILLY tat! -- Delores
Saba El Keer -- What a magnificent woman! I like the dominatrix thing now and then.
Drop by my place and we can explore the possibilities. -- Freddie
P.S. And sometimes, you know, I like the submitrix.
M.C. Cat -- Did you think I'd be intimidated by a mere cat? A scrawny, ear-bitten
tomcat, at that? Oh, HA! -- Ms S.B. Anthony
I'm a GOLEM? How did that hap-- Get that fool thief out of my way! (slice, chop)
Don't try to distract me with THIEVES. Why am I a golem? -- an annoyed Keta, who
intends to have answers, and very promptly
Alizarin Damask -- Congratulations. -- Favorite Guys

The total number of fights calculated was reported as 250 fights. This is a
misprint. It should have read "over 2,500 fights." -- Baphomet

As a Captain of the Vendetta Cartel, Hammer has recently dissolved the Vendetta
Cartel Crimson Ascension Family. Lady Martilyo and Rook are NO LONGER members of the
Vendetta Cartel.
The Vendetta Cartel is divided into "Families" under the leadership of Captains;
who have been appointed by the VC God Father known throughout the dueling land as
Master Darque.
Hammer is now the Captain of the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe and the veteran
manager extends an invitation for prospective membership as a Probate [ONLY 2 Probate
positions are available in the VC Tarantula Tribe at the present time!] to any Newbie
Manager who qualifies under the following conditions:
1. Newbie Manager MUST have Online Access for Email communications! [Hammer is
presently living in Qatar and Lieutenants Maximillian and Firehawk are living in
Canada; so Email Communication is a MUST for consideration!]
2. Newbie Manager MUST have the time and funds to create 2 new stables to be
placed in 2 separate Slow Arenas [the cost of running 1 stable in a Regular Arena!]
to actively participate on a monthly basis with the other 3 T-Tribe members of the
Vendetta Cartel!
3. Newbie Manager MUST have the DESIRE to be an Active Member of the Vendetta
Cartel as a Tarantula Tribe trainee aka Probate; developing his/her managerial skills
under the mentorship of Hammer and the other VC members; thus proving themselves
worthy to become Vendetta Cartel Lieutenants in the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe!
The Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe lives by the Feud; thereby prospective
Probates are forewarned that membership guarantees instant Friends and instant
Enemies!
Any prospective Probates who 1.) seek to improve their managerial
insights/abilities under the counsel of Hammer and other Vendetta Cartel members 2.)
desire to be active members of an Active Alliance that WILL NOT Dissolve in a Few
Months; building lasting friendships while enjoying Feuding with Common Enemies 3.)
who enjoy sending their gladiators to Tournaments and would strive to see their
manager name listed among the TV and TC winners in the Mailer Tourney Newsletters as
a member of the Vendetta Cartel MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
Send an Email to HammerDM@fastermail.com to introduce yourself and provide
Hammer with a short Bio of your managerial successes/failures and favorite/least
favorite fighting styles; with a listing of your active stable/stables for Hammer to
verify in the online newsletters.
Hammer will choose the 2 prospective Probates for membership in the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe on the basis of who he decides will be most suited [to
Hammer's purposes as the T-Tribe Captain!] from among those responding to this All
Arena Ad on a first response/first acceptance or rejection basis!
