SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly JADE MOUNTAIN games. JAGIELIO DAMASK caught the eye
of many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested TALK-TO-DEATH and was
awarded 16 points in recognition. Due to his absence and inability to defend the
throne, SAMURAI has lost the title of Duelmaster. This time victory fell to the
grasp of the usurper. All hail SHORT ROCK, Duelmaster of JADE MOUNTAIN! No
confirmation, but my sources claim that the top team has gained their position using
magical aids. Charmed weapons perhaps?
I have been in deep conclave with my spies who watched all that has recently
transpired. Indeed there is much I would report. Loose talk at the arena has
reached my ears and it but confirms the knowledge that many fighters are after DONAL
PINES. Watch your back!
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! My sources at HUE AND CRY stable claim they've
never seen the guild bitterer. This as a result of the untimely demise of HSIA FURY.
Beware DONAL PINES! Dark alleys may hide both secrets and assassins. In the arena
there is only the brightness of steel. Keep vigil always!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? More than a sharp eye must I keep, indeed a
stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari await me!
Till next we meet remember: a fool flies into a rage quickly and often. The wise
are angered by the same thing only once. Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Ah, the joys of fighting standbys and...losing. What can I say? I wasn't ready for
her. She was too skilled and MUCH too angry. -- Short Rock
Samurai -- Go for it! -- Donal Pines
P.S. After all, if I had won, I might have had to do the column! I wouldn't have
known what to say.
Hsia Fury -- Oh, sure, like I'm going to give someone as angry as you are a chance to
REALLY work me over? As if! -- Ulra T'ssar
Hozha Odemis -- (recoiling) I don't know what that is, but it looks contagious, and
I don't want any part of it! -- Sernillan

A few notes about e-mailed personals:
You may submit personal ads, columns, spotlights, etc. electronically, either via e-
mail to ads at reality dot com (which doesn't need any more spam, thank you) or on
the web at http://www.reality.com/duel2/modules.php?name=Ads. When you submit
something, you should get back a receipt from HAL at RSI. If you do NOT get a
receipt, your ads may have gone astray (not all e-mail makes it to its destination
any more than all snail mail does). If you DO get a receipt, it should, in the body
of the message, tell you what arena your stuff was filed in. Check your receipt to
make sure your submission made it to the intended destination. Also check to see
that everything you sent made it to the same place. Sometimes HAL, who is rather
simple-minded in some ways, will send half your stuff to another arena if the name
or number of that arena shows up at the beginning of a line. So if the word Ti
appears at the beginning of a line halfway through your ads, all the ads after that
may end up in Ti, which is closed and doesn't need ads. As a side note, sometimes
things move slowly, so don't wait until the last minute to send your ads and all.
If they get held up along the way, they may not show up until next turn. Happy
writing! -- Ed.

We of the Desolate Empire Alliance want to welcome two managers to our fold. Kon of
the Empire Rising, and Osiris! May they be blessed with the blood of their enemies,
and give no quarter in War! -- Dark Knights of the Desolate Empire
