SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, DAL SHANG? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, REFUGEES, since SAND DANCERS
took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. TOO GOOD FOR ME turned
their 1-0-0 turn into a 3rd place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than
this, and you get put on hit lists. Gee, I'm impressed, a 5-0-0 is nice, but don't
get cocky, SAND DANCERS, the Fates teach humility, and the Fates are proud. Of
course, we're all terribly impressed to see DURVAN win a fight and gain 14 points,
terribly. Tsk, tsk, ONE-EYED YOFAN beat KOREEN and KOREEN lost 8 points. You're
breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, DAL SHANG may be getting
bland, as JEANINE stays top dog in the city. I'm not in a very good mood today, but
why am I telling you this? You want to know what's new, don't you, DAL SHANG?
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
What's the big D? JACK ATTACK was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered...
grumble... mumble... curse... And it looks like CARD SHARKS avoided them the most
this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. CHURRO THE SPIKE
was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or
feared? Heh, heh.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. We're all going to die in the end, so why worry if
the fate catches up with you sooner that later?
There's got to be a better place in DAL SHANG to get a drink than The Blazing
Unicorn! Any suggestions? Just wait 'till next time I show up here, I won't be so
nice! So nyaaah! Glad to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens

ZalCon2 Updates (1/9/04)
The contest will be starting on the turn due February 23rd, 2004 and run for 20
turns.
Only one team will be allowed for each manager in the contest, regardless of
whether additional teams are announced as contest entries. No exceptions for any
reason.
The Style Master points should read that there is +1 point for beating a member
of your own style even if the warrior is not registered for the contest.
Rolling points for consecutive turns as Style Master means that your warrior
gets the extra point every turn after the first 3 that he continues to hold the
title.
The points for Quality Wins should be clarified to read the winning warrior is
ranked below by the number of recognition points needed for each bonus point at the
start of the fight. For example, Warrior A (3-2-0, 17) beats Warrior B (4-1-0, 35)
and receives 2 bonus points under Quality Win for the 18 point difference in the
ranking.
I believe that is all the clarifications for the moment, please feel free to
email, diplo, call or write me with any other questions or concerns about the
contest.

CHAOTIC WINDS
Once, long ago, the four Winds of Time descended upon Alastari like a TEMPEST of
epic proportions, they slew everything within their all-encompassing reach. They
left nothing. In their wake lay smoldering ruins.
In their haste they sped towards the center of this great land like a colossal
giant would step across an ocean. The four storms picked up momentum on their way
towards each other. A collision was eminent.
The first storm wind, the oldest and wisest of the four was named APEXALUS. The
second, FLAGGSTAFF, was the quickest and loudest entity ever created. The third Wind
of Time was MATRIATIN, neither old or young, quick or slow, but fierce and feisty all
the same. The forth wind, ASSAMITHIUS, the youngest yet most creative in its means
of destruction.
When finally they merged at the center of ALASTARI, an incredible destructive
explosion occurred. And when the smoke and debris cleared they were one. CHAOS was
born.
And Chaos spread across the diminished lands reeking havoc and doom with its
passing, and destroying allover again that which already lay in ruin.
