SPY REPORT
The trouble with these spy-reporter golems is that the spy reporters they're
modeled on tend to be assholes. Take Novgorodny Vir, "like a magificent Sun."
Please! This isn't going to be one of my best and brigtest spy reports, but here it
is anyway.
Still, he, or it, does have ways of gathering information. Such as that
Warmasters dropped eleven, as a team. Monster Manual rose nine. Of Wolf and Man
rose to fifth place. Nikus (Of Wolf and Man) had the biggest individual point gain
at twenty-four. Maxentius had the biggest drop at twenty-two.
Otto's Diner was most avoided, which makes you wonder about that old rumor of
trolls in the stew, doesn't it? Literate Loons avoided them most. Flavor to Go got
the most challenges.
There were (only!) forty-nine fights today, more than half of them challenges of
one kind or another. Three Dark Arena challenges, one Bloodfeud, and twenty-two
regular challenges. I think. There was a sudden spate of falling leaves as I was
counting, and those things are incredibly noisy. Like an avalanche of potato chips.
Only one standby fought today. We really should rename those positions.
Suggestions?
The Dark Arena matches:
GERANIUM SYLVATICUM (81-1728) (2-4-1,11) of SUMMERBORN DA challenged BLACK ORC
(81-20) (0-0-0,60) of DARK ARENA. GERANIUM SYLVATICUM was viciously butchered by
BLACK ORC in a 2 minute fight. Does this make it an endangered species?
THE BLOODED (81-1778) (0-1-0,1) of MY TOP RATED DA challenged DARK CHAMPION (81-
24) (0-0-0,60) of DARK ARENA. THE BLOODED was barely slain by DARK CHAMPION in a 2
minute Dark Arena battle. "Barely"? How can you "barely" die?
HAL8HAL (81-1786) (0-0-0,0) of CLAN LONGBEARD DA challenged MOUNTAIN TROLL (81-
18) (0-0-0,40) of DARK ARENA. HAL8HAL was savagely slain by MOUNTAIN TROLL in a 1
minute Dark Arena fight. If this is in reference to what I think it's in reference
to, "savagely slain" was probably too good for it. But I could be wrong.
The bloodfeud:
SUBPRIME RIB (81-1567) (9-8-1,38) of OTTO'S DINER bloodfeuded LAODAMEIA (81-
1713) (4-2-1,32) of ARCHAIC CHAOS. Down 6. SUBPRIME RIB slimly won victory over
LAODAMEIA in a popular 9 minute Bloodfeud fight. But up or down doesn't count as
much in a bloodfeud as normally. AS MUCH. It still counts if it's out of line, or
so I'm told. Depends on who draws the line, I suppose. Anyway, the bloodfeud was
successful. You can see that.
The random matches:
WYNDHAM LEWIS (81-1776) (1-1-0,11) of LITERATE LOONS fought TURDUCKEN (81-1784)
(0-0-0,0) of OTTO'S DINER. WYNDHAM LEWIS subdued TURDUCKEN in an exciting 1 minute
novice's conflict. That's the literati for you.
ROSA KLEBB (81-1765) (2-0-0,20) of BOND-AGE fought JULIAN OF NORWICH (81-1783)
(0-0-0,0) of DARQUE AGES. ROSA KLEBB slimly won victory over JULIAN OF NORWICH in a
3 minute amateur's bout. So, was it Rosa who was slim, or Julian?
TAMERLANE (81-1764) (1-1-0,11) of DARQUE AGES fought DROW (81-1774) (2-0-0,21)
of MONSTER MANUAL. TAMERLANE was vanquished by DROW in a 1 minute one-sided bout.
Too bad some of the places Tamerlane vanquished back in the darque ages didn't have
Drow to defend them, eh?
TUKWILLA (81-1627) (1-0-1,6) of THE WILLBURYS II fought BILESTOAD (81-1603) (0-
0-0,0) of SUPER BASH BROTHERS. TUKWILLA was savagely defeated by BILESTOAD in a 2
minute gory novice's fight. Am I seeing Rascally Rabbit and Assuransirbanipal here?
Good, new faces are good.
RENTON (81-1623) (1-0-0,15) of THE WILLBURYS II fought TEE HEE JOHNSON (81-1752)
(2-1-0,14) of BOND-AGE. RENTON was handily defeated by TEE HEE JOHNSON in a 1 minute
one-sided conflict. If I were nicknamed "Tee Hee," I'd go around defeating people,
too. Managers can be so cruel!
SUMNER (81-1624) (0-1-0,1) of THE WILLBURYS II fought NICK NACK (81-1750) (2-1-
1,22) of BOND-AGE. SUMNER was defeated by NICK NACK in a 3 minute bloody novice's
brawl. Sumner was doing well to hang on that long against the more experienced Nick.
WASHSOUGAL (81-1625) (1-0-0,6) of THE WILLBURYS II fought LADY GODIVA (81-1782)
(0-0-0,0) of DARQUE AGES. WASHSOUGAL was overcome by LADY GODIVA in a 4 minute
amateur's duel. Not to mention all the men in the stands who were likewise overcome.
ORTING (81-1626) (0-1-0,1) of THE WILLBURYS II fought IRWEHN (81-1785) (0-0-0,0)
of CLAN LONGBEARD. ORTING was vanquished by IRWEHN in a 1 minute one-sided struggle.
Odd, I thought Irwehn was the country next door to Erewhon. Guess not.
MICHELLE (81-1622) (3-9-0,18) of GFE fought PURPLE WORM (81-1775) (1-1-0,6) of
MONSTER MANUAL. MICHELLE overpowered PURPLE WORM in a 1 minute gruesome one-sided
fight. Probably Michelle's orange surcoat; orange quenches purple. Makes an unholy
mess first, though, i.e., gruesome.
RONIN ZEN (81-1704) (3-4-1,14) of ARCHAIC CHAOS fought BAG-O-MEAT (81-1762) (0-
2-0,2) of OTTO'S DINER. RONIN ZEN demolished BAG-O-MEAT in a 1 minute uneven
competition. Obviously, the Ronin was hungry. Well, you'd have to be.
SUSAN (81-1665) (6-4-0,22) of GFE fought ODDJOB (81-1766) (1-1-0,4) of BOND-AGE.
SUSAN was viciously subdued by ODDJOB in a 3 minute veteran vs. beginner upset bout.
Now, that's gotta be embarrassing.
BONY LOUIS SOL (81-1681) (4-4-1,29) of THE RED BLADES fought MISS MISERY (81-
1725) (3-3-0,12) of MY TOP RATED. BONY LOUIS SOL was overcome by MISS MISERY in a 2
minute match. You need to pad those bones, Louis.
LANEL (81-1619) (8-4-0,32) of GFE fought LITTLE DARLING (81-1700) (4-4-0,22) of
SUMMERBORN. LANEL narrowly defeated LITTLE DARLING in a 4 minute brutal match.
Despite the loss, it looks to me like Darling is an up-and-comer.
KING OF ROCK (81-1709) (5-2-0,32) of MY TOP RATED fought ZARLENE (81-1726) (2-4-
0,10) of GFE. KING OF ROCK beat ZARLENE in a 1 minute fray. King thought she was a
drum, you see.
NIGHT LIES (81-1663) (3-8-0,26) of MY TOP RATED fought ANTENOR (81-1731) (3-2-
0,16) of ARCHAIC CHAOS. NIGHT LIES subdued ANTENOR in a 1 minute struggle. That's
lies for you. Always sneaking around when you don't see 'em and subduing people and
situations.
GAMBLE (81-1635) (7-6-0,44) of THE MOTHERSHIP 011 fought HARP (81-744) (10-11-
0,41) of ALE HOUSE MERCS. GAMBLE was overpowered by HARP in a 1 minute one-sided
struggle. For some reason, this leaves me speechless. Don't cheer, dammit.
GWENNOLAY (81-1631) (7-6-0,48) of OF WOLF AND MAN fought CAPTURED ORC (81-8) (0-
0-0,40) of Fine Imported Standbys. GWENNOLAY demolished CAPTURED ORC in a 1 minute
uneven contest. Glad you won, Gwen, but go easy on the standby, it's hard to
persuade 'em to move out here.
KNUT SUNDERHELM (81-1569) (8-9-2,35) of DRAGONBANE GUILD fought LIZZIE DUSK (81-
1538) (10-9-0,53) of THE RED BLADES. KNUT SUNDERHELM was overpowered by LIZZIE DUSK
in a 2 minute uneven bout. Quick, I've got to know! DID she sunder his helm?
SISI BA-NETERU (81-1488) (12-11-2,69) of THE RED BLADES fought MOLLUSQUOME (81-
1629) (9-4-1,60) of LA PENTARCHIE. SISI BA-NETERU defeated MOLLUSQUOME in an
exciting 1 minute fight. That sounds almost like a shellfish.
MAXENTIUS (81-1591) (9-5-0,81) of WARMASTERS fought NIKUS (81-1583) (8-8-1,57)
of OF WOLF AND MAN. MAXENTIUS was overpowered by NIKUS in a 1 minute one-sided
match. This is the fight that resulted in the biggest point movements. The old
"underdog" thing.
MARCO POLO (81-1375) (19-13-2,89) of DARQUE AGES fought ZIGGY PIKE (81-1487)
(11-13-0,84) of DRAGONBANE GUILD. MARCO POLO overpowered ZIGGY PIKE in a 1 minute
uneven duel. I thought of some things to say, by way of quips, but the hands
overruled me. Sorry. Or maybe not sorry.
CICERO (81-1266) (25-19-0,100) of WARMASTERS fought JAGER VON DRACHEN (81-1341)
(20-18-0,103) of DRAGONBANE GUILD. CICERO viciously subdued JAGER VON DRACHEN in a 5
minute gory veteran's duel. You know, I thought jagers... jaegers? Uh... hmm.
Maybe not.
Damn, I've got Writer's Shoulder. Feels like being stabbed in the shoulder
blade with a sharp steel pen. I hope I can hand it off to Debby tomorrow along with
the hands.
The challenges:
ODDBALL (81-1747) (2-2-0,13) of THE MOTHERSHIP 011 challenged GREMLIN STEW (81-
1710) (6-1-0,19) of OTTO'S DINER. Up 6. ODDBALL was overpowered by GREMLIN STEW in
a tiresome 7 minute uneven Challenge match. Anybody could be overpowered by a
gremlin stew. Don't try eating it.
MARTILN (81-1742) (2-2-0,14) of CLAN LONGBEARD challenged YUK HE (81-1685) (2-5-
0,18) of FOOD. Up 4. MARTILN was defeated by YUK HE in a popular 3 minute Challenge
duel. Are we specializing in nasty food now?
HADRIAN (81-1739) (2-2-0,14) of WARMASTERS challenged JOSEPH MITCHELL (81-1746)
(2-2-0,19) of LITERATE LOONS. Up 5. HADRIAN defeated JOSEPH MITCHELL in a 2 minute
novice's Challenge duel. So long as he doesn't start burning the books.
PETER PAN (81-1759) (1-2-0,5) of LA PENTARCHIE challenged TOSSED SALAD (81-1686)
(1-6-0,9) of FOOD. Up 4. PETER PAN was defeated by TOSSED SALAD in a popular 1
minute Challenge match. Salads always defeat me. I give 'em a pass.
OLD THUMPER (81-1707) (2-6-0,12) of ALE HOUSE MERCS challenged VALAK (81-1650)
(4-7-0,19) of OF WOLF AND MAN. Up 7. OLD THUMPER was vanquished by VALAK in a 1
minute mismatched Challenge fray. If Thumper is a rabbit, which is what I've heard,
and Valak is a wolf... you can see where THIS one is going.
CAZADOR (81-1578) (7-9-0,30) of DRAGONBANE GUILD challenged BRUSSEL SPROUTS (81-
1688) (4-3-0,41) of FOOD. Up 11. CAZADOR unbelievably bested BRUSSEL SPROUTS in a
popular 5 minute Challenge match. They do say that you can get the best of a sprout
if you choke it with butter.
KRONSTEEN (81-1748) (2-1-0,33) of BOND-AGE challenged LIZARD MAN (81-1544) (6-
12-0,41) of MONSTER MANUAL. Up 8. KRONSTEEN devastated LIZARD MAN in a 1 minute
one-sided Challenge bout. This is a bad time of year to be a lizard man. The cold,
you know.
ZADIE SMITH (81-1701) (7-1-0,24) of LITERATE LOONS challenged ONION RINGS (81-
1684) (5-2-0,38) of FOOD. Up 14. ZADIE SMITH was overpowered by ONION RINGS in a 1
minute Challenge conflict. And the people next to Zadie were overpowered even more
thoroughly.
IRONHEAD (81-1722) (5-1-0,33) of DRAGONBANE GUILD challenged FISH TACO (81-1687)
(5-2-0,33) of FOOD. Straight across. IRONHEAD was demolished by FISH TACO in an
exciting 1 minute one-sided Challenge bout. Is there no end to the unpleasant things
you can thing of to eat?
FEOHR (81-1737) (4-1-0,29) of CLAN LONGBEARD challenged HYPNOTIZE (81-1679) (3-
6-0,29) of MY TOP RATED. Straight across. FEOHR devastated HYPNOTIZE in a 1 minute
one-sided Challenge fight. I was going to say something, but my mind went blank.
JULIETTE (81-1630) (9-4-0,51) of SUMMERBORN challenged TRUMAN CAPOTE (81-1577)
(8-8-0,49) of LITERATE LOONS. Down 2. JULIETTE viciously subdued TRUMAN CAPOTE in a
crowd pleasing 2 minute Challenge bout. Good work, that. I'm sure he appreciated
it.
DAWN CERES (81-1573) (8-8-0,42) of THE RED BLADES challenged BERNADETTE (81-
1618) (7-5-1,47) of GFE. Up 5. DAWN CERES defeated BERNADETTE in an action packed 1
minute Challenge struggle. I thought dawn was supposed to have rosy fingers, not
blood-red.
JUNEBUG (81-1543) (9-9-2,55) of SUMMERBORN challenged KIRIN ICHIBAN (81-1680)
(6-3-0,56) of ALE HOUSE MERCS. Up 1. JUNEBUG handily defeated KIRIN ICHIBAN in a 1
minute uneven Challenge fight. Should've been a Jitterbug, to go with the Itchyban.
PANDERA PAX (81-1406) (13-14-1,62) of ARCHAIC CHAOS challenged DOPPLEGANGER (81-
1382) (17-17-0,89) of MONSTER MANUAL. Up 27. PANDERA PAX was demolished by
DOPPLEGANGER in a 1 minute one-sided Challenge brawl. Two on one?
FIVE (81-1572) (10-7-1,63) of LA PENTARCHIE challenged BECK (81-743) (11-10-
0,66) of ALE HOUSE MERCS. Up 3. FIVE handily defeated BECK in a 1 minute one-sided
Challenge contest. I knew a rabbit named Five once.
FLACCUS (81-1455) (12-14-1,88) of WARMASTERS challenged BENEDICT (81-1470) (13-
12-0,78) of OF WOLF AND MAN. Down 10. FLACCUS was beaten by BENEDICT in an exciting
5 minute veteran's Challenge fight. Quite right.
SPORK (81-1562) (13-5-0,81) of OTTO'S DINER challenged ARCHON (81-1390) (21-12-
0,87) of OF WOLF AND MAN. Up 6. SPORK narrowly defeated ARCHON in a dull 22 minute
Challenge match. Twenty-two minutes? In THIS weather? I'm surprised they weren't
both frozen in place. Or maybe they were.
QUINN (81-1634) (6-7-1,69) of THE MOTHERSHIP 011 challenged WONDERFACE (81-1522)
(11-10-0,73) of LA PENTARCHIE. Up 4. QUINN won victory over WONDERFACE in a popular
1 minute Challenge duel. A Mighty Quinn, I see.
CREIDDY LAD (81-1484) (13-11-2,90) of SUMMERBORN challenged CHARLES MARTEL (81-
1346) (17-18-2,99) of DARQUE AGES. Up 9. CREIDDY LAD vanquished CHARLES MARTEL in a
1 minute one-sided Challenge duel. Back to the practice fields for you, Charlie!
TOM WOLFE (81-1467) (13-13-3,67) of LITERATE LOONS challenged PATROCLUS (81-
1410) (17-9-2,97) of ARCHAIC CHAOS. Up 30. TOM WOLFE viciously subdued PATROCLUS in
a 2 minute expert's Challenge fight. Ouch. I'm surprised THIS didn't make the
"major point move" list.
FLAVOR TO GO (81-1633) (8-5-0,104) of THE MOTHERSHIP 011 challenged SHILLELAGH
TOR (81-1294) (22-21-1,88) of THE RED BLADES. Down 16. FLAVOR TO GO devastated
SHILLELAGH TOR in a 1 minute mismatched Challenge match. Oddly enough, Flavor was
listed as "most challenged."
PABST (81-823) (13-4-0,101) of ALE HOUSE MERCS challenged VICTOR (81-1369) (18-
16-1,104) of WARMASTERS. Up 3. PABST bested VICTOR in an action packed 3 minute
gory Challenge brawl. Enough beer will do that to anybody.
For the title, a random match:
FIDGET (81-1403) (20-12-2,113) of LA PENTARCHIE fought JAKLAK (81-1430) (19-10-
0,99) of CLAN LONGBEARD. FIDGET was unbelievably bested by JAKLAK in a 2 minute
veteran's Title fray. What's unbelievable about this? We congratulate Fidget.

PERSONAL ADS
Doppleganger -- So how does this work? I fought the 'good' twin? Where's the loser
who's contributed so heavily to your losing record??? Hhhmmmm... maybe he fights in
the odd-numbered fights... -- Pandera Pax
Fidget -- How ironic! I used (coincidentally) the right 'favorite' weapon, and the
right 'favorite rhythm'... and lost!! I did better with different weapons and
rhythms!! Well, I'll try them once more, perhaps on another style they'll prove more
beneficial... -- Patroclus
Shadowspire -- Patroclus got his invite! I was sure he'd never live this long to
begin with... 15(+1)-11(+1)-11-13(+1)-21(+1)-5-13(+1) WoSteel. Favorite is the
MORNING STAR??? Low OE and VLow AL. Focus on parry skills. Leaves with a decent
record (17-9-2 when he gets his invite) and AE in INIT, AE in ATT, and Master in
Parry. Coincidentally, I just ran him with a MS and running 4-3-6... it didn't go as
well as I'd hoped. Usually I'm using a broadsword or a greatsword, and getting
better results. Oh well... I'll try it again with a lower AL and we'll see what
happens. He's off to a well-earned retirement, in any case. -- Kid Arcane
Otto's Diner -- You know that mussels must be harvested in their proper season,
otherwise these sort of things are bound to occur. -- Laodameia
Kronsteen -- HEY! I didn't hear anyone say 'go!', so I wasn't ready... I wasn't even
using Decisiveness!! Let's try that again real soon, okay? -- Ronin Zen
Hypnotize -- Must... raise... sword... parry... att... UGH!... OUCH!... Taste...
blood... please... stop... -- Antenor
Fidget and Patroclus -- Congrats on your immortality! -- Nomad and the Guild
Bill the Bard -- No problem on the challenges, three just caught my eye. If I see a
challenge of the Blades I will certainly send one your way. The problem is more that
your challenges have been successful. When you beat my Pikers, who am I supposed to
challenge with? The problem isn't being challenged, its crappy warriors being poorly
managed. -- Nomad
Quinn -- Hah! I admit, after the last fight I felt extremely lucky to come out with
the win. Two broken weapons seemed to have gifted me with a free one. But this time
I will lay fair claim to the W. Feel free to try again if you wish. -- Ziggy Pike
Bernadette -- Ouch. -- Cazador
Benedict -- Fighting a member of your stable is always a challenge, especially with
that style. It makes the win that much more gratifying. -- Jager
Maximum Wham -- Uhm, that must be the maximum for you. Not a more broad idea of the
maximum for anyone. Because the previous turn, I certainly felt more wham. Your
wham was a bit short of a real wham. More of a... tap? But I guess "Maximum Tap"
just doesn't sound so good, does it? -- Ironhead
