                             Notes from the arena champ.

     Yes, that is two titles for me. I am feeling quite good about this, you know. DM 
Titles are a great thing. And I really do not plan to share this throne with anyone.
     Ms. Fu, our Manager, asked that I use this column to say "hi" to the newly 
arrived Vicious Fish 2021. Managed by an old Consortium friend, Hammer The Wordsmith, 
the Fish will provide needed competition in Jade Mountain. It is sort of "old-home" 
week with Jorja, Hammer, and a Consortium Rep. So, hello it is, Hammer. Hello.
     Meanwhile, as Duelmaster, I think I will just go fishing. (wink)

                                          -- Boudicca DMII

                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, Warriors of JADE MOUNTAIN.  Allow this humble servant Novgorodny Vir 
to give you a respite from the fights in the form of this Spyreport.  The boys at 
VICIOUS FISH 2021 left the arena dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by 
LADY WARRIORS.  Good show!  SAND DANCERS posted a nice gain, to come in 3rd.  
Everybody loves a winner...  LADY WARRIORS had cause to celebrate, after ZENOBIA got 
21 points by beating GREAT WHITE SHARK.  A certain someone should cut down on the 
drinking and practice more, after losing 16 points to ZENOBIA.  (Discrete enough, 
GREAT WHITE SHARK?) Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by HUNTER, 
of SAND DANCERS, who despite a 11-10-0 couldn't overcome JADE MOUNTAIN's Number 1.  
Word has it one team in JADE MOUNTAIN is taking speech lessons to try to bore their 
opponent to death.  I'll bet it works.   
     So much to report, so little time!  Perhaps the warriors of VICIOUS FISH 2021 
should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided team...  The warriors of 
VICIOUS FISH 2021 found their efforts at combat frustrated as LADY WARRIORS 
apparently had more important things to do than fight.  Is it charming personality?  
Conversational abilities?  Good oral hygiene?  Whatever it is, HUNTER is the most 
challenged warrior.   
     The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on...  Ask not a spymaster 
for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious 
stupor.   
     Leave me now, you base fools!  More important duties call me.  Do not despair!  
I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir
