SPY REPORT
The sages err'd not in their foretelling of a god descending upon LIN TIRIAN,
for I, Novgorodny Vir, have returned! What's a move up by 3 you ask? (alright,
maybe you didn't ask) Cause for celebration, according to SAND DANCERS. Practice
pays for BLONDE BILLIE, who pummelled ARMOREDILLO, to pocket 22 points. A certain
someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 12 points to
BLONDE BILLIE. (Discrete enough, ARMOREDILLO?) MOONSTONE successfully staved off a
grab for the roses by COCAINE of HABIT. Does LIN TIRIAN have no one talented enough
to dethrone her? Word has it one team in LIN TIRIAN is taking speech lessons to try
to bore their opponent to death. I'll bet it works.
And how sociable are LIN TIRIAN's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of TREE PEOPLE should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided
team... The warriors of TREE PEOPLE found their efforts at combat frustrated as WILD
KINGDOM apparently had more important things to do than fight. Everyone is famous
for fifteen minutes, and CLUMSY DAN is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't
SAND DANCERS proud! My love of complete Spyreports dictates that I note the
mismatched fight, THE LOIN KING and CLUMSY DAN. Are WILD KINGDOM unwilling to engage
in a fair fight? I thought THE LOIN KING showed great skill and promise when he was
subdued by CLUMSY DAN. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.
Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the arena. A
certain tavern in LIN TIRIAN would I avoid!
All good things must come to an end. As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond
my control, I must take my leave of this place. Do not despair! I shall return!--

8 December 2003
Greetings! I would like to invite everyone to Jhans (DM 36) for the first annual kLk
St. Valentine's Day Massacre (kill contest). We will start the contest off with the
ceremonial burning of the Andorian flag on turn 450. (Six turns away. Roughly mid-
February.) The contest will run for 10 turns. On turn 461, 3 separate victors will
be announced. Team with the most kills, warrior with the most kills, and alliance
with the most kills. Prizes will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most
kills and to the manager of the warrior with the most kills. The prizes will
probably be team roll-ups. The number of roll-ups has yet to be determined. The
contest is sponsored by Jhans' newest, (but by the time the contest starts) largest
alliance, the kLk (pronounced "klick"). -- Polarius, mgr. of Blitzkrieg DM 36
