SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in JADE MOUNTAIN this turn, and let's
start with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the
difference, as SAND DANCERS is pushed out of top team by DARK TOADS, who came from
2nd with a 3-2-1 this turn. And let's see, CINDY CHLAMIDIA fought TABATAN and gained
17 points and contributed to ONE NIGHT STAND's 2-1-0. TABATAN has lost to CINDY
CHLAMIDIA, falling 15 points, while helping make SAND DANCERS a 1-3-0 turn. This
turn HOLLY HEPATITIS challenged HABEAS CORPUS in what was JADE MOUNTAIN's Title bout.
We should ask HABEAS CORPUS about the thrill of victory, and what being the new
Duelmaster does for a warrior, he's now the one to ask. Can someone confirm a rumor
for me? I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Green Axe
until they win. Maybe?
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. LEGALESE has cause to stand tall,
as they were JADE MOUNTAIN's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team
to beat. And avoiding LEGALESE more than any other team we find DARK TOADS. JADE
MOUNTAIN, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? Well, sports fans,
take notice that WRIT OF MANDAMUS from LEGALESE was JADE MOUNTAIN's most challenged
warrior this turn. Building dreams on hope, ARDEN challenged up 28 points this turn
to take on ESSINA TYL VERN from SAND DANCERS stable. And now nobody knows where
ESSINA TYL VERN is right now, after giving ARDEN 19 points worth of recognition. As
quiet chuckles rise behind me. In a brave attempt, CYRUS from DARK TOADS challenged
up 21 points to fight WOODY from the SAND DANCERS stable. CYRUS perhaps got his just
desserts, seeing as he was beat by WOODY and ended up with 69 recognition points.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? GEOFFRY must have surprised DARK TOADS this turn, after they sent
him to the Dark Arena, but the Dark Arena couldn't hold him! Is it really true that
JADE MOUNTAIN has more dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Always good to rest in JADE MOUNTAIN, but never good to wear out
my welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until the sun next rises and my pen sets
to paper-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Essina Tyl Vern -- Sorry about your arms, but I don't sew. -- Harold
Judge -- Outstanding news. The warriors of Legalese are always welcome foes. --
TigToad
Holly Hepatitis -- Wow, that was not how I thought it would go. Maybe Harold will
have better luck than Morganna.... -- TigToad
Holly H. -- Oh yes, congratulations on taking the throne. -- TigToad
Habeas Corpus -- Good try, but I was on a roll. Since I plan to avoid the Isle,
staying home to enjoy my honors and all, how about if I buy you a drink? -- Lentiria
Harold -- Hey! I wasn't DONE using that arm, you know. Cutting it almost off was
way above and beyond the call of fair dueling, you Toad! -- Woody
Viriginitophobia -- I've heard about you. Your loose ways will get you into trouble
sooner or later. -- Essina tyl Vern
Aria -- Someone with a voice like yours should forego dueling and just sing. You are
too delicate for this life. -- Tabatan
Perjury -- Obviously, your "claim to fame" was a LIE. And on oath, too! -- Volto
Leeni
TigToad -- I guess so, as I have been hanging around her for two years! It isn't
like I just showed up. -- Essina
Lord Protector Allocution -- Initial stats: 7-17-19-11-17-9-4. Not even second rate,
am I? But I can take tremendous amounts of damage and keep on teaching. -- Woody
28 January 2004
All -- I send out this invitation to all teams and managers. A new Alliance has been
formed. The Living Essences Alliance is being formed to join forces in an effort to
eliminate common foes and to help the joined warriors grow and learn to the best of
their abilities by offering suggestions and advice. It doesn't matter what arena
you're in, or if you're in another alliance already, as of today. This Alliance is
open to one and all! If you are interested in joining, please DIPLO me, or send a
personal ad to DM 93's newsletter. If you wish to join beyond March 2004, send a PA
to DM 82. Come join the fun! -- Dagan LifeGiver, mgr. Shadow Warriors (DM 93)
28 January 2004
This notice is to formally introduce our young alliance, CHAOS INC. We consist of
APEX, FLAGG, MATRIX, ASSAMITE, and now RUDE BUDDHA. If we aren't already there, we
WILL be coming to an arena near you soon! Hope to see you all at the ZALCON II.
4 February 2004
Greeting from Jhans, DM 36 -- In 2 turns the kLk will host our first annual "St.
Valentines Day Massacre" in Jhans, arena 36. (Kill Contest) The contest will begin
on turn 450. It will run for 10 turns. On turn 461 the winners will be announced.
There will be 3 separate categories, the team with the most kills, the alliance with
the most kills, and the warrior with the most kills. For the manager of the team
with the most kills a PRIZE of 10 ROLL-UPS will be rewarded (or $50 deposited into
his account). No need to declare yourself in the personals. If you are in DM 36,
you will be part of the contest whether you like it or not. We encourage as much
trash talk as you'd like. All teams, managers, and alliances invited. Please
contact Polarius (mgr. of Blitzkrieg) in DM 36 with questions. Or you can email me
at jamieptmo@hotmail.com. Good luck and see you in the sands. -- Polarius
