SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly LIN TIRIAN games. Warriors--remember that glory waits
always around the corner! Witness how this week THE OPERA went 3-1-1 to move up 4 in
the rankings. FIVE + FIVE caught the eye of many in the gladiatorial commission as
she skillfully bested BLONDE BILLIE and was awarded 16 points in recognition. In one
of the week's more notable duels, TYLER DURDEN put down JIGGER KREE, causing him to
lose 12 points of recognition in the process. Due to his absence and inability to
defend the throne, TERMINOTTER III has lost the title of Duelmaster. The city has
turned out in honor of BABY SPLIT, for with hers arena victory she may now lay claim
to the highest position in the city! Informants "close" to the city champion have
told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his armor. Watch out!
But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades
that is city LIN TIRIAN. I saw one fighter that warriors avoided when this week's
challenge seeking began. HUNTERS is feared. This much I can say. Methinks more
than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part of last week
avoiding HUNTERS. Indeed it was THE OPERA. Mighty fighters cannot but expect
competition from those below. ILLUSIONIST take warning! You have more than a few
enemies in LIN TIRIAN.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Fate is a fickle mistress. She showers
the miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious. Remember this!
The girls are as pretty in LIN TIRIAN as ever I remembered them....and the
fighters as ugly! Don't let your reputation slip! Ahh, but I can hear the spires of
a far off city calling to me. I must away! Till we meet again, remember: a turtle
walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no one; a lion runs to slay its prey.--

Five + Five -- That's a trick question, right? The New Math. It LOOKS like it
should be fifty-five, but there's a stinger in it. The answer is actually something
like...forty-two, right? -- Jigger Kree
Boxwood -- I was just trying to prune you. Boxwoods are supposed to be trimmed into
shape, aren't they? -- Irlon
Thumper -- Ha! I love it when I get to rip someone's face off! -- Jayne the Ripper
4 May 2005
Several questions have been asked about Slaughter's Challenge that I'd like to
address and clarify.
1) All Prizes must be used on the contest team, this includes the resurrection.
Remember any fast arena team should be able to transfer to a slow arena
(except for arena 82, I believe).
2) Warriors will be allowed to fight and run in the dead tourney, should there
be one, and return if an opening can be made without breaking the rules
(i.e. only one DA fight allowed per team).
3) If you win your single DA match you do not get another. It's one use of the
Dark Arena win or lose so if you want him/her/it dead be sure and throw the
match!
4) The resurrection potion's longevity has been extended by the commission to 6
months but the other potions (favorites, and +1 bonus) must still be used
within 2 turns and on a 5 FE or higher warrior. The resurrection can go on
any warrior regardless of FE.
Street Legal
P.S. My thanks to those already entered (Hammer, The Consortium, Tripwire, Stik, and
Shaman) and hope many more find a reason to come to arena 54. Again, my email is
triumph1971@hotmail.com or you can diplo me in arena 14 at THE DEATH SQUAD (63) if
you need more info!

Amendment for "Fratsfas Quest for the Best!"
Managers that have teams already established in Fratsfa need not have (3) three
warriors in the initiates. FE will NOT be a factor. Stables may be entered at any
time. Just announce your stable in the p-ads.
***************************************************************************
This in my invitation to all managers who wish to prove their mettle against
managers from all over Alastari. We have limited TP's in this contest to one a team
at a time. We DO NOT want this contest to become a scum fest as many others have,
hence the Andorian arena. Good luck to all who come to prove their skills. "May
your enemies' blood flow freely" -- Dark Knight Toker, Desolate Empire Alliance
