SPY REPORT Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in DAL SHANG this turn, and let's start with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the difference, as TIL DEATH DO US PART is pushed out of top team by CASTAWAYS, who came from 2nd with a 3-1-1 this turn. And let's see, HARITH TEN MORU fought AGERUS and gained 18 points and contributed to SAND DANCERS' 3-2-0. LOEKER SMITH has lost to FLITCHAK, falling 6 points, while helping make SAND DANCERS a 3-2-0 turn. And not without some honor, SORRELISHE now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of DAL SHANG. By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped under the table at The Blazing Unicorn? I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher friend of mine assures me this is true. We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and shave it close? Hearty mugs of ale were raised in DAL SHANG today as RAZIA was bid farewell to a 8-4-1 warrior, with KHAH RAKAH of CASTAWAYS standing silent and pensive. A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over. Consider well. Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the sweetest. Well, I'm burning daylight here in DAL SHANG and I've a long road ahead of me. Happy Trails. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper-- Alarond the Scribe DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SORRELISHE 6985 21 12 2 111 SAND DANCERS (233) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -*HAPPY PHANTOM* 5943 10 2 0 107 LITTLE EARTHQUAKES (384) FLITCHAK 3365 15 12 1 94 CASTAWAYS (387) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME SHAMISH 3368 21 14 0 88 CASTAWAYS (387) ICECLAW 3364 14 10 0 84 CASTAWAYS (387) KHAH RAKAH 3367 16 10 1 79 CASTAWAYS (387) CHALLENGER ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME LOEKER SMITH 7022 12 6 0 64 SAND DANCERS (233) CHAEGO SARILDAN 6995 14 13 0 62 SAND DANCERS (233) BOBIKA VHETT 6914 14 15 0 58 TIL DEATH DO US PART (724) -CHINA 6101 8 4 0 57 LITTLE EARTHQUAKES (384) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -*CRUCIFY* 5961 7 8 0 50 LITTLE EARTHQUAKES (384) KARMA 6925 9 16 0 43 TIL DEATH DO US PART (724) CELKOVY UNIK 7040 5 0 0 37 TIL DEATH DO US PART (724) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME GARNO TEN KORO 7037 4 7 0 26 SAND DANCERS (233) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME HARITH TEN MORU 7047 1 1 0 20 SAND DANCERS (233) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME AGERUS 7038 4 5 1 18 TIL DEATH DO US PART (724) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

RAZIA 7035 8 4 1 TIL DEATH DO US 724 KHAH RAKAH 3367 462 PERSONAL ADS Flitchak -- It amazes me that any man of Palani extraction would allow himself to be called that. -- Sorrelishe P.S. But then again, it's very strange that any decent, respectable Palani would go about wearing a tail. Karma -- Looks like you need to work on yours. -- Loeker Smith Khah Rakah -- Oh, was that your name? Sounded to me like the announcer coughed. Probably the weather, lots of people coughing right now. -- Chaego Sarildan Agerus -- Gods, man, pay attention! Get a different weapon. -- Garno ten Koro P.S. And then challenge somebody else, meaning "not me." Once you find your feet (try the foot locker), I don't want to be on the receiving end. Celkovy Unik -- A friend was telling me this morning about some guy that said, "Life is hard, and it's harder if you're stupid." Do you suppose there was a hidden message in that? -- Harith ten Moru LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS SHAMISH was devastated by SORRELISHE in a 1 minute mismatched Title fight. LOEKER SMITH was vanquished by FLITCHAK in a 1 minute uneven battle. ICECLAW demolished HELVAN QUICKHAND in a crowd pleasing 1 minute bloody uneven fight. KHAH RAKAH slew RAZIA in a 1 minute fight. CHAEGO SARILDAN demolished KARMA in a action packed 1 minute mismatched competition. BOBIKA VHETT overpowered GARNO TEN KORO in a 1 minute one-sided struggle. CELKOVY UNIK outwaited DENGAN THE TRADER in a dull 15 minute fight. AGERUS was vanquished by HARITH TEN MORU in a 1 minute uneven duel.
