SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
ERINIKA brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, MONGOL HORDE, since
RYAN'S SHOWS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Oh, this is
too good to be true! SUPER STARS has fallen to 24th place after going 0-2-0 this
turn. Who's bragging now? Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see T-4 STRAIN
win a fight and gain 34 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, DESOLATE WAYS beat TYLER DURDEN
and TYLER DURDEN lost 15 points. You're breakin' my heart. KHAN D. DATE Dark Arena
Challenged FRELEN for ERINIKA's Title this turn, and guess what happened? The crowds
were amazed this turn, as FRELEN killed the Duelmaster, KHAN D. DATE, leaving MONGOL
HORDE in mourning. This incredible death has allowed, I might add, MOLINA from
GASHOUSE GANG to ascend to the throne of Duelmaster, and I hear DARK ARENA is not
happy. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of
these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha!
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. What's the big D? N IS FOR NO was the most avoided
team? Bunch of lily livered... grumble... mumble... curse... And it looks like
RYAN'S SHOWS avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you
ask me. Hmph. T-4 STRAIN was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.
Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. Ya gotta go sometime, and SUN TZU's time
was this time. Hmmm, not a bad fighter, had he lived... (what? me pity?). Let's
see, 11-3-0. Pretty good record for a living warrior. A sad one though, for a dead
one. Such is the case for STYGIAN ASCENT of FEAR FACTORY 8. Tsk. Ya gotta go
sometime, and BLACK TONGUE's time was this time. Hmmm, not a bad fighter, had he
lived... (what? me pity?). Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave
team is developing these kinds of weapons?
What does the ERINIKA arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. Paste
this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide

From: The Office of Accurate Census Reporting, Gladiatorial Commission
To: All Managers
In the interest of preserving our natural resources and preventing managerial writer's
cramp, the census form has been eliminated, effective immediately. Managers may
register their warriors' races and/or favorite sayings by simply writing them on a
separate piece of paper and submitting them to the Commission. Each warrior may have
up to 15 favorite sayings. Each saying must be categorized Jeer, Gloat, Boredom, Ouch,
Victory and may be up to 70 characters long. For any questions, please contact the
Gladiatorial Commission.
WINTER FACE-TO-FACE IN SUNNY ARIZONA!
Our next winter FTF will be held in Tempe, Arizona, January 12-14, 2018. It will be
held at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Tempe, Arizona (480-897-7444), the same hotel as
last year by popular request. Room rates are $149.00 per night, 1-2 occupancy, which
includes full cooked breakfast, complimentary manager's reception, free airport
shuttle, free parking and free high speed internet. There's a fitness center,
jacuzzi, and pool. The rooms are blocked--the code is RSG.
Please make your reservations now if you plan to go.
The hotel reservation site is: http://tinyurl.com/yaekcffp
This is prime season for Phoenix and the hotel tends to fill up quickly.
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!
TEAM AND CHARACTER MAINTENANCE SERVICE
As a service to all managers, we offer team and character maintenance. This
option allows you to make sure your team or selected warriors will never miss a turn!
Team Maintenance: This will cause all warriors on that team to fight every
turn; if it's an AD arena, any new warriors who arrive on that team will
fight the turn they arrive. In A.D. or in transfer arenas where you have
multiple teams, each team will need to separately be on Team Maintenance.
(The only exception is new warriors; they will not fight until they have had
their initial strategy input.)
Character Maintenance: This will cause only that warrior to fight every
turn. If the character graduates or changes arenas, he/she/it will stay on
Character Maintenance.
In either case, you may submit strategy sheets for your warriors each turn, if
you wish. The Team/Character Maintenance will make sure your warriors fight each
turn, and they will always use their most recently entered strategy.
Remember that challenges, avoids, and challenge/if challenged strategies will not
carry through from turn to turn. These sections are only used on the turn they are
entered. In order to continually challenge or avoid you will need to submit a
strategy sheet each time.
One other thing to remember about maintenance: Maintenance is not something
that you write on your turnsheet (like in demo tourneys). In order to add or remove
maintenance for a team or warrior, you must send a note to Customer Service. If you
just write things like this on your strategy sheet, they may or may not get done.
Likewise, don't write it on your personal ads. Please, please, please put it on a
separate piece of paper with "Customer Service" written on the top. If you don't,
well, you can imagine.
Thanks for your time. Good luck in Duelmasters! -- Green Eyes
