SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out DAL SHANG to
see what's new. MVP award for KO LAO-DEN? SAND DANCERS' proud of him after beating
DENGAN THE TRADER and getting 15 points. Talk about yer big time losers! GOBARL got
smashed by BACKLASH, and lost 3 points! Our Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to
MALDI STONEBREAKER, BUT TEBAS TEN KOGAN is still the Duelmaster because he has the
most recognition points! Who was the wiseguy that said DAL SHANG's Duelmaster was
paying for drinks at The Blazing Unicorn? Don't look at me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it.
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you?
Write! (Or have someone write for you.)
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I gotta leave. DAL SHANG is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!
Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Sometimes I look at the fights and the newsletter and I wonder why I insist that my
warriors do personals here. I've seen abandoned graveyards with more life to them.
-- Li Dan, Sand Dancers
Some of those graveyards aren't as abandoned as you might think.... -- Ed.
Helvan Quickhand -- Oddly enough, Li Dan was pleased that I got matched against you!
Apparently this is the first time one of us has fought you since he started keeping
track last summer, and you represented the only gap in his list of standbys. Now,
however, he has the full set, and we don't need to see any of you standbys again for
a while, okay? -- Tebas ten Kogan
Backlash -- Too good for me, too! -- Kassal ten Dru
P.S. Is a backlash like a riposte? Or one of those deals where you move past me and
then strike backward, getting me (very painfully) in the kidneys?
Feltar of Illis -- I really wish you'd go back to Illis. It says here, "You are
worthless and weak and don't belong here," and it's TRUE. -- Ko Lao-Den
Normar the sort-of-Blond -- If you want to be REALLY blond, you need to be taller.
You should train your SZ. -- Jeri Tavan
By the Demon in the Sea, Lendo ten Chardin is a FIEND. -- Churro the Spike
P.S. Well, you know, he's cousin to all those Chardinees over in Alastari, and THEY
are all fiends, too.
It just seems wrong that One-Eyed Yofan should be able to defeat me. With only one
eye, he can't have good depth perception, and you NEED depth perception to calculate
your blows properly. -- Dakoril
P.S. Of course, he's half an elf, and they're sneaky. He probably cheats.
I just love it when I have Mim Yellowhair at my mercy. You know how it is, she's a
tall, fine figure of a woman (shapes the figure in question in the air with his
hands), she's an orc, you know, and they're very...physical. LOTS of fun. -- Gobarl,
exhausted but happy
Dammit, I want to see Herrol Two-Finger with just ONE finger next time. Or maybe
just one HAND. Damned slimy little half-elf.... -- Ragolas
20 April 2005
I have returned after a five-year absence. I expect all tithes, gifts and bequeaths
to resume as normal. -- Magic Man
4 May 2005
Several questions have been asked about Slaughter's Challenge that I'd like to
address and clarify.
1) All Prizes must be used on the contest team, this includes the resurrection.
Remember any fast arena team should be able to transfer to a slow arena
(except for arena 82, I believe).
2) Warriors will be allowed to fight and run in the dead tourney, should there
be one, and return if an opening can be made without breaking the rules
(i.e. only one DA fight allowed per team).
3) If you win your single DA match you do not get another. It's one use of the
Dark Arena win or lose so if you want him/her/it dead be sure and throw the
match!
4) The resurrection potion's longevity has been extended by the commission to 6
months but the other potions (favorites, and +1 bonus) must still be used
within 2 turns and on a 5 FE or higher warrior. The resurrection can go on
any warrior regardless of FE.
Street Legal
P.S. My thanks to those already entered (Hammer, The Consortium, Tripwire, Stik, and
Shaman) and hope many more find a reason to come to arena 54. Again, my email is
triumph1971@hotmail.com or you can diplo me in arena 14 at THE DEATH SQUAD (63) if
you need more info!
