I'm still sitting here at the top of this dungheap. A couple more turns and I'll be immortal and off to the isle. Then I can look at the ladies and drink Faygo all day. I gave SHIVAREE SJDEN his first loss, and almost killed the poor guy. That might have angered someone. I must admit I have to congratulate the team Blade and Blood on their impressive kill ratio. Eighteen kills in 106 wins!!! Hopefully my team's win percentage will jump over theirs pretty soon though. My team has got a lot of work ahead of it if it wants to drag down The Arena Felines win percentage and pass them. See ya next time around. -- Mudvayne SPY REPORT Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Good things come to those who fight well, as ARENA FELINES can attest, moving up by 1. Practice pays for LION HEARTED, who pummelled SHIVAREE SJDEN, to pocket 15 points. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 11 points to SCYTHE. (Discrete enough, MIKAI ABADOS?) Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by KETA, of FAVORITE GUYS, who despite a 18-16-0 couldn't overcome JURINE's Number 1. Word has it one team in JURINE is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life! A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn? And do not the little birds cry out?' Any ideas? Perhaps the warriors of FEAR FACTORY should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team... The warriors of FEAR FACTORY found their efforts at combat frustrated as BLADE AND BLOOD apparently had more important things to do than fight. Is it charming personality? Conversational abilities? Good oral hygiene? Whatever it is, CHILLILI CHES is the most challenged warrior. The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A certain tavern in JURINE would I avoid! Do not think spyreporting in JURINE is the highlight of my life. My fingers tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. JURINE, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Swinging Aardvark.

But I am looking to get a second kill before I graduate. Got to keep up with my teammate, Mikai. -- Shivaree Snowball -- Thanks for my first win! Now I don't have to go to the Dark Arena! -- Steatopygous All -- The Captured Orc is dog food now. But my dog won't eat it! He wants a Kitty Cat! -- Mikai Abados Favorite Guys -- May Kjarran put Felaraon's soul to good use. It is the first of many kills I expect to have. I've got to live up to my sister Saba El Keer's reputation! That means a lot of kills. -- Sibi El Keer Here, Kitty Kitty. Come here, Kitty Kitty. -- Mikai Abados Chillili Ches -- Baths are overrated!! I heard the natural scent of a man is quite attractive. The caveman look is coming back around. The unibrow is going to be the big fashion statement this year. -- Pitspawn Fouldog Capt. Unibrow, Thunderbrow, Meathead Unibrow, hmm all good names. The next guy I make in this arena might just have to be "Kjarran's Unibrow." All hail the Karnhorn empire and the menacing Brow of the one true god!!! -- Var Dreen Seljin -- What? You mean an open hand is not a good weapon for my style? The dreaded eye poke is a deadly maneuver, known by many, but mastered by only a few. As you can see I have some work to do on it. -- Kjarran's Hammer Sly Serval -- That was a pretty pathetic fight between the two of us. Var says he's seen blind monkeys with swords tied to their wrists land better blows than we did. -- Kjarran's Hammer Kjarran's Hammer -- Yeah, the monkeys soiled themselves far less than you two also. -- Var Lion Hearted -- Yes, well, just watch OUT, you! I'll get somebody who's WOLF hearted, and he'll chase you up a tree! -- Keta Mikai Abados -- What a nasty record! I think it's time you had a loss. -- Randy Steatopygous -- You're a fine figure of a woman, and don't let anyone tell you differently. -- Dreen Seljin Pitspawn Fouldog -- I think there are special dog biscuits that are supposed to improve your breath. You should try them, because "breath weapons" aren't supposed to be allowed in the arena. -- Chillili Ches 5 November 2005 It is with a proud heart that I announce the newest member of the Desolate Empire alliance. Dok Sik will be known from here forth as Dark Knight Dok Sik, of the Desolate Empire. May he be blessed with victory and courage. May his enemies' blood flow freely! -- The Dark Knights Wasby and Toker LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS BIG BAD BRADY was unbelievably bested by ADEMA in a 3 minute Challenge fight. SHIVAREE SJDEN was demolished by LION HEARTED in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge melee. XANDER HAXAN won victory over CHILLILI CHES in a 2 minute bloody Challenge brawl. STEATOPYGOUS was outlasted by GUILLOTINE in a monotonous 16 minute Challenge fight. LAMB OF GOD was devastated by PAWS in a 2 minute uneven Challenge brawl. MUDVAYNE savagely defeated KETA in a crowd pleasing 2 minute veteran's Title struggle. PITSPAWN FOULDOG overpowered RANDY in a 1 minute uneven melee. MIKAI ABADOS was vanquished by SCYTHE in a 1 minute uneven duel. SIBI EL KEER overpowered DREEN SELJIN in a 1 minute uneven duel. KJARRAN'S HAMMER was outlasted by SICKLE in a tiresome 13 minute fight. SLY SERVAL handily defeated MORDANT DESERTER in a 1 minute one-sided bout.
