                                      SPY REPORT

     Welcome to turn 300!  What a milestone for this arena, the first and premier No 
Tournament Arena in the land!  Congratulations to each of you managers and warriors 
that have kept it going strong for so long!  Phineas has promised a special SYP next 
turn to commemorate Shadowspire's 300 turn mark, but until then, I have a spy report 
to deliver!

     So, who was going to walk away as the Duelmaster on this historic turn?  Child 
Smasher entered the turn as a champion, could he leave it in the same manner?  
Benjamin from Wicked Martyrs was sitting in the Challenger Champions and he was 
convinced that Child Smasher's time on the throne was over, so he posted a challenge 
to the Champ!  It took 3 minutes, but we have a new Duelmaster for Turn 300, and his 
name is Benjamin!  Congrats to Duelmaster Benjamin, who is managed by DMobster.  While 
losing a fight is horrible, Child Smasher did get an invitation to the Isle, so he is 
now a Lord Protector! Congratulations are in order for this feat as well.

     The most avoided team is War Machine, and the bums over at Darque Ages avoided 
them the most.  Darque Ages pulled off a 4-1-1 turn, so perhaps it was a sound 
strategy.  Or, they are a bunch of yellow-neckbeards who don't like to stay and fight!  
I'll let you decide!  The most challenged warrior was Alistar, turn 299's top-rated 
slasher.  He was challenged by Martial Slaw, turn 300's top-rated slasher.  Does that 
spoil the ending of the fight for you?  Martial Slaw overcame Alistar in a rather 
quick 1-minute fight.

     Eight deaths occurred on this momentous turn, so let's break them down, shall we?  
Three of the deaths happened in the Dark Arena. Darque Ages, Kill 'Em All, and Otto's 
Diner decided to part ways with a few of their warriors.  The next death occurred when 
Mordant Deserter took to the sands against the rookie Tours.  As it often happens, the 
young ones do not know when to stay their hands and the deserter will not live to see 
another day.  The last four fights can involve a bloodfeud, so we saved them for last.  
Special Purpose of Big Lake Solution executed Zurray of Clan Longbeard, who returned 
to the sands for this special commemorative turn.  Not to be outdone, Clan Longbeard's 
Qwinn then killed An Angry Duck of Scorpio Likes.  Next, Gray Goose, who killed a 
warrior last turn, continued his murderous ways and put down Himi Jendrix.  Last, but 
certainly not least, NPR of From the Left assassinated Ruination from Wicked Martyrs.  
Granted, it was Ruination's challenge, but no one expects the next fight to be the 
last fight of a career (or the Spanish Inquisition, whatever that is).

     That is enough from me!  I'm looking forward to the after parties when the arena 
shuts down for the evening.  I haven't been invited to any, but I know they are 
happening!  I'm guessing all of my invitations got lost in the courier system... every 
single one of them lost in an unprecedented mistake that combines both human error and 
magical mischief.  Whatever!  I'm sure no one will mind if I just show up!  I'll see 
you bums next cycle!

Darque -- My apologies for Hominid's challenge.  That's out of character, but I 
panicked since I knew he couldn't beat anyone above him.  He won't be avoiding your 
team for the coming turns.  Good luck. -- Hombre

Grey Goose and Cherry DP -- Your fight a couple turns ago gave me an idea...  and it 
was a bad one. -- Hombre

Dorkio and ghost of WWE -- Great quote last cycle!  Try to remember "Brevity is the 
soul of wit."  Learn it.  Know it.  Live it! -- A PSA from Gray Goose and Inebriation

Otto -- Congrats on your slim victory to 600 wins! Here are some fun facts about the 
race to 600 wins...

1.  On turn 261, our records were 511-473-26 for you and 499-382-15 for me.
2.  At the end of the race, turn 299, our records were 600-566-28 for you and 597-466-
    20 for me.
3.  Over those 38 turns your record was 89-93-2 and my record was 98-84-5.
4.  That difference of 12 wins was huge for you.

I had a lot of fun with the race and look forward to the 2 names that you come up with 
for my next 2 replacements! -- DeGotti

From:       The Office of Accurate Census Reporting, Gladiatorial Commission
To:         All Managers

In the interest of preserving our natural resources and preventing managerial writer's 
cramp, the census form has been eliminated, effective immediately.  Managers may 
register their warriors' races and/or favorite sayings by simply writing them on a 
separate piece of paper and submitting them to the Commission.  Each warrior may have 
up to 15 favorite sayings.  Each saying must be categorized Jeer, Gloat, Boredom, Ouch, 
Victory and may be up to 70 characters long.  For any questions, please contact the 
Gladiatorial Commission. 

  This is just a reminder to all participants in this arena that it is a no-tourney

arena, and is therefore subject to the no-tourney rules.  The pledge all participants 
took when they entered this arena is as follows:

   ********************************************************************************

                               NO-TOURNEY ARENA PLEDGE

    * I pledge that I will not send warriors from this team to a tournament, nor 
      will I use a tournament prize on a warrior from this team.
    * I pledge to run a full team when I run turns in this arena.  If circumstances 
      preclude my running less than a full team, I will notify the Player Committee.
    * I agree to abide by the decisions of the Player Committee.
    * I understand that any warrior that participates in a tournament or receives 
      a tournament prize shall be sent to the Dark Arena until they are dead.

   ********************************************************************************

Best of luck in the arena!

                        TEAM AND CHARACTER MAINTENANCE SERVICE

     As a service to all managers, we offer team and character maintenance.  This 
option allows you to make sure your team or selected warriors will never miss a turn!

     Team Maintenance:  This will cause all warriors on that team to fight every 
     turn; if it's an AD arena, any new warriors who arrive on that team will 
     fight the turn they arrive.  In A.D. or in transfer arenas where you have 
     multiple teams, each team will need to separately be on Team Maintenance.  
     (The only exception is new warriors; they will not fight until they have had 
     their initial strategy input.)  

     Character Maintenance:  This will cause only that warrior to fight every 
     turn.  If the character graduates or changes arenas, he/she/it will stay on 
     Character Maintenance.

     In either case, you may submit strategy sheets for your warriors each turn, if 
you wish.  The Team/Character Maintenance will make sure your warriors fight each 
turn, and they will always use their most recently entered strategy.
     Remember that challenges, avoids, and challenge/if challenged strategies will not 
carry through from turn to turn.  These sections are only used on the turn they are 
entered.  In order to continually challenge or avoid you will need to submit a 
strategy sheet each time. 
     One other thing to remember about maintenance:  Maintenance is not something 
that you write on your turnsheet (like in demo tourneys).  In order to add or remove 
maintenance for a team or warrior, you must send a note to Customer Service.  If you 
just write things like this on your strategy sheet, they may or may not get done.  
Likewise, don't write it on your personal ads.  Please, please, please put it on a 
separate piece of paper with "Customer Service" written on the top.  If you don't, 
well, you can imagine.
     Thanks for your time.  Good luck in Duelmasters! -- Green Eyes
