                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail and well met warriors of VALAMANTIS!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  There were bitter words at THE 
BEARS' guildhouse after a 0-0-0 showing this week which dropped the stable into 16th. 
Dark Arena anyone?  Warriors--remember that glory waits always around the corner!  
Witness how this week SAMURAI KIDS II went 1-4-0 to move up 5 in the rankings.  My 
praise to THE LOSERS for their 4-1-1 week this time out.  Indeed, it was a skillfully 
fought round deserving of notice!  A.K.A. RUDIE caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested FRANZ BECKENBAUER and was awarded 19 
points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, MADE A COMBO put 
down ARSENIO HALL, causing him to lose 7 points of recognition in the process.  The 
city has turned out in honor of DAWNRACER, for with his arena victory he may now lay 
claim to the highest position in the city!  Would you believe that over half of the 
old women in VALAMANTIS seem to feel that they could fight better than you 
gladiators?   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In VALAMANTIS "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!  VALAMANTIS, city of gladiators!  Mighty among 
the names of thy guilds is LATE SHOW, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the 
weekly duels.  Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent 
the better part of last week avoiding LATE SHOW.  Indeed it was SAMURAI KIDS II.  
Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below.  BLACK WIDOW take 
warning!  You have more than a few enemies in VALAMANTIS.  As a gladiator gets older, 
the icy grip of fear lays hold of his heart.  True, YOU?  Who could miss your "brave" 
challenge of ISIS?  Few would not have guessed the outcome of the bout as ISIS lost 
to YOU.  Is this what passes for courage in VALAMANTIS?   
     What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his 
foe's mortality?  Look no more for GARRION in the arena or on the streets of 
VALAMANTIS.  His fate was sealed in the Dark Arena.  Inevitable for one at 12-8-0.  
My hearty congratulations EURO STEAMER, for thy revenge upon BET OR NOT DIE, slayer 
of thy fallen comrade.  Next time he will know better, eh?  Dark alleys may hide both 
secrets and assassins.  In the arena there is only the brightness of steel.  Keep 
vigil always!   
     A thought before I go.  Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise 
manager learn the secrets of them all?  Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy 
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till next we 
meet remember:  a fool flies into a rage quickly and often.  The wise are angered by 
the same thing only once.  Zontani Sharp Eyes

Dozer -- Careful who you flap your witless gums to.  You never know, they may have
friends who are better suited to dealing with one of your style. -- Running

Dozer -- If I'm not fit to step onto the sands, what do you suppose that says for
your stable-mate, mistress? -- Names

Tmoney -- Now that you have my attention, I would like to bring something to yours.
If you check your records of past newsletters, you will notice that since I have had
the Sadists F2F II team here, I have made no challenges.  I've been mostly tourney
prepping, trying to get my Lunger ready for the Champions MI this fall which I expect
him to do very well in.  That has been my plan all along, until turn 311, that is.
Dozer's challenge to Names was brilliant.  However, it may well have been the biggest
mistake The Den Of Swords has made in Valamantis to date.  Names challenged Mistress,
but it was her challenge that made it through fortunately enough for you.  If you
wish to keep her alive, the avoid slot is in the bottom right of your strats sheet.
Be careful where you tread, boy, the Big Dogs don't play nice. -- SunGod, The Firm

Mistress -- Re: your ad to GED.  Speaking of pitiful, maybe you should fight standing
up next time. -- Names

All -- Sorry for the sudden arrival.  Normally I like to announce but I have been so
busy setting legions up all over that I've let my manners slip.  Apparently I've let
my teams slip too if LoL's first turn was an indication.  I'll have to be more
observant from now on. -- Seraphim, mgr. of Legion of Legend

Jeffrizzel -- I must admit to not being able to understand much of what you say.  Is
that a kazoo in your mouth? -- Seraphim

Aerobed -- You're not as comfortable as you advertise.  I carry the world all day and
all I wanted to do was relax.  You're too lumpy and I want my money back. -- Atlas

Jigai -- Thankssss for nothing. -- Isssissss

Dozer -- You're lucky I broke my sword and not your face.  Bizzoo Yah! -- Arsenio
Hall

Pimples -- One more crit and I would have taken you down. -- Carson Daily

All -- Yipee kie yo m'fer's!  Looks like I bagged me a computer! -- Bruce Willis

All -- It feels good to be #1.  Don't worry I didn't cork my scimitar. -- Jimmy

     Citizens of Ghea (only the ignorant fail to note Lirith Kai is not in Alastari),
no new day is rising, but the sun is setting on just another beautiful evening.
While you were sleeping, an irksome rabble has entered the always fair Aruak City.
Of course they fought alongside our warriors, most not so treasured, as all
gladiators do.  They drank with themselves, and slept with themselves.  Whether they
had masks, who cares.
     Warriors, don't be afraid.  For years Aruak has been one of the safest cities in
Ghea, and that custom has been continually cultivated, and will continue to be by
those who have called it home for years and those who live, fight, and die by the
same ethics.  There is no contest, nor has there ever needed to be one for many
years.  A conflict of personalities has arisen, and the city has been 'invaded' by
pests.
     Any rules that are annouced will be purely for the joy of the lemmings' own
little world.  Those who are being targeted have no interest in participating except
to defend the integrity of an arena that is different from others.  Whether you
choose to come to Aruak, do it for your own reasons, not theirs.
    Competing in Aruak City has never been for the faint of heart or the weak willed.
Combat is combat, wherever you go.  Blood will flow as always, and now many innocents
will be caught in the middle, but those who defend Aruak's traditions never target
those who bring respect of Aruaki customs with them to our home.
    So ignore the private ranting announcement brought by the stuporous
Frothingsloshers.  If you choose Aruak City, do not choose it for an unsanctioned and
bogus 'contest', choose it for the tradition.  Choose it because Aruak is different.
