SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly DRAGONHEAD games. The proverbial rising comet can
only hope to compare with LHC's team record! A 5-0-0 week and now a firm grasp on a
4th place ranking. Fortune did not smile upon STATES this time out who this turn
suffered a fall into 11th position in the wake of a 0-0-0 round. FAST PROTON caught
the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as she skillfully bested EMBEZZLING
SCRIBE and was awarded 20 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable
duels, CMS put down RONARDA SOLA, causing her to lose 6 points of recognition in the
process. Due to his absence and inability to defend the throne, ARAMIS RAMIREZ has
lost the title of Duelmaster. This time victory fell to the grasp of the usurper.
All hail STEVE LAKE, Duelmaster of DRAGONHEAD! Heed this! A seer has warned that if
exactly 6 die in duels this week, the whole city shall perish! Just remember...5 or
7!
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. I saw one fighter that warriors
avoided when this week's challenge seeking began. STATES is feared. This much I can
say. Apparently the stalwarts of MEAT YOUR MAKER are catching the bulk of jests down
at the challenging board for their large share of the avoids.
What warrior does not hone his years, impatiently waiting for the moment of his
foe's mortality? Let all swords of the city take heed! By law, MILCHAMAH has but
one remaining week to take their revenge upon ROMOR SAITH for the slaying of
MADKAWRAW REBORN. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers the miserable with fortune
but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in DRAGONHEAD. Nice atmosphere you have here! Ahh, but I can hear the
spires of a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till we meet again, remember:
a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its
prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

WINTER FACE-TO-FACE IN SUNNY ARIZONA!
Our next winter FTF will be held in Tempe, Arizona, January 14-16, 2011. It will be
held at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Tempe, Arizona (480-894-7444), the same hotel as
last year by popular request. Room rates are $129.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, which
includes full cooked breakfast, complimentary manager's reception (yes, really!), free
airport shuttle, free parking and free high speed internet. There's a fitness center,
jacuzzi, and pool. The rooms are blocked--please make your reservation by December 22
before the block is released! (This is prime season for Phoenix, and people have been
unable to book rooms because they waited too long.) Look for the tournament info
sheet and minioverviews some time in December. We hope you're all looking forward to
it and that we will see you there!
