Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit the road, Debby Tonte. VALAMANTIS needs a spyreport." Oh, well. MVP award for MELANIE PIERCE? MIDDLE WAY 10's proud of her after beating CAPTURED ORC and getting 9 points. Talk about yer major upsets! OLIVIA QUINN's match with SOULBANE cost her a loss of 6 points! And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome PETE MOSS. Aren't MIDDLE WAY 10 proud. (Oh, my.) I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for PR photos. So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these really neat Spyreports can it? SAVAGE was the most avoided team. Is a 22-15-1 record really that scary? I don't know what ALTERED STATES II's been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights from SAVAGE, that's fer sher. What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone gets killed. Not after four more fights. Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.) I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be a famous Spyreporter? I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out!

Just a note: Our DM writers (both staff and players) put quite a bit of effort into writing content for the newsletters: spy reports, spotlights, and personal ads; fiction and non- fiction. If you enjoy these, if you want more, or even if they make you laugh, it would be kind if you could drop a personal ad or even send them a note. Assur and Consortium, especially, put tremendous effort in Noblish Island, writing new content and tweaking/correcting older content to help new players learn the game. A special shoutout should also go to our varied human spy reporters in the ADM arenas, Seam, Chimlevtal, Shadowspire, Telorinthe, and occasionallly contest arenas. Kudos and thank you to all of our writers! I'm sure we don't thank you enough. -- RSI ** * * * * * * * ** MINI SPOTS The short spotlights that Jorja has been writing were intended to be amusing but also possibly to provide a jumping-off point for further fiction.
