SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! MIDDLE WAY 10 had cause to celebrate, after ALTA CHESS got 27 points by
beating INFERNO SERPENT. A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and
practice more, after losing 22 points to ALTA CHESS. (Discrete enough, INFERNO
SERPENT?) TRAIN WRECK found out that VALAMANTIS isn't a democracy. You've gotta be
the best to be Duelmaster here! So who's the team that's been walking into taverns
last week and ordering milk? Sounds like a PR stunt to me.
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! To quell some nasty rumors, the guys
in DEVIL'S MAYHEM are not carrying any incurable diseases. No need to avoid 'em.
Like a pup with its tail between its legs, THE BEARS scurried away from DEVIL'S
MAYHEM. Oh, the shame! If challenges were horses, DOC FELLE could open up a fast
food joint! Them's the breaks, DOC FELLE. Expecting fair challenges from PUBLIC
TRANSIT is evidently too much to ask. TRAIN overcame DOC FELLE. The whole thing
leaves a bitter memory.
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
VALAMANTIS would I avoid!
Leave me now, you base fools! As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my
control, I must take my leave of this place. Do not despair! I shall return!--

PERSONAL ADS
Colossus's Fire -- You people with undefeated records just burn me up! That zero in
the middle is like a target for me. I go right for it. I don't grudge you a WINNING
record, mind you, just the "undefeated" stuff. It makes me feel like nobody's been
trying. -- Bensi Durn
Bus -- For some reason (groaning), I feel like I've been hit by a...oh. I guess I
HAVE been hit by a bus. Well, no wonder, then. -- Doc Felle
Train -- Such power and control, I love it. It's always a pleasure to see a man who
knows where he's going. -- Alta Chess
Train Wreck -- (aggrieved look) It isn't FAIR that I should be in a train wreck and
not get hit by the train. Something is MISSING in this experience. -- Eb Gollu
Careless Bear -- Well, LISTEN. Don't BE so careless, okay? Next time, you might
burn down the whole forest, and THEN where would you be? -- Darima Fenn
Din -- It still feels odd for a total parry to kill like that. -- Bensi Durn and Nick
15 December 2004
The Company of Brothers Alliance would like to welcome Azereth as our newest member.

Baphomet, Co-Founder T.C.B.

Due to requests, the Turf War IV will be postponed until turn 225 (approx May/June
2005). Sorry about the inconvenience. -- Baphomet, host of TW 4
