                                      SPY REPORT

Welcome back to The Spire.  My name is Huard DePriest and I'll be guiding you bums 
through this week's spy report.  It will tell you everything that is worth knowing in 
this little piece of the heavens we call Shadowspire.  I am a bit bummed today due to 
some sad news but don't worry, I got more than enough steam to make it through this 
spy report and even try to explain it in a way you gents will understand. So, you 
know, no big words or complex thoughts - elementary stuff like your educations!  Okay, 
let's get to it already!

Thomas Merton was our Duelmaster the time you gladiators were on the sands.  He got 
the opportunity to test his mettle against any challengers this turn and prove his win 
over Narsil wasn't a fluke! So, how did ol' Tom perform this week with all eyes on 
him?  Well, first we have to talk about Telp, who was ready to take that next big step 
in his dueling career by challenging for the throne!  Thomas Merton met Telp on the 
sands and . . . Thomas Merton is still our Duelmaster!  It was a longer title fight at 
5 minutes, but the people did not look disappointed.  Congrats to Thomas again, and I 
guess another congrats is in order since he was invited to the Isle. Duelmaster and 
Lord Protector Thomas Merton is managed by Sherman.

With Thomas Merton's graduation, Sherman is one style away from joining the exclusive 
Round Robin Club of Shadowspire.  According to SYP records, he only needs a Wall of 
Steel graduate to complete the 10 style achievement.  Thus far, only 7 managers have 
graduated all 10 styles from the same team in Shadowspire.

In news that shocks no one, Kill 'Em All is the most avoided team and they were mostly 
avoided by Pray the Gods.  In news that will be a surprise to a few of you, our most 
challenged warrior was OUR DUELMASTER!  Yes!  It is a rarity these days, but Thomas 
Merton was the most challenged warrior for the turn.  We have already covered his 
fight, so there is nothing new to report since the last paragraph.  He won.

Stats for Turn 181:

     Total Fights:     40 (-1 from last turn)
     Dark Arenas:       3 (3-0 for the Dark Arena
     Bloodfeuds:        2 (1-1-1 for the feuders)
     Challenge Fights: 16
     Deaths (non-DA):   2

     Biggest Up Challenge: 20 points

WILT THE STILT (81-2383) (14-13-2,68) of NBA LEGENDS challenged JIM TULLY (81-3475) 
(14-9-0,88) of LITERATE LOONS. WILT THE STILT overpowered JIM TULLY in a 1-minute one-
sided Challenge match.

     Biggest Down Challenge:   17 points

RINGIL (81-3633) (2-0-0,19) of MIRKWOOD ORCS challenged BUCKS INA TUX (81-3628) (0-2-
0,2) of BIG LAKE SOLUTION.  RINGIL bested BUCKS INA TUX in a 3-minute novice's 
Challenge bout.

That about wraps up the turn.  Stay tuned for a special message, and you'll know why 
I'm bummed today.  Mr. Merton is leaving us, so we get to see who is man or woman or 
it enough to take the throne next turn. By my records, there are a few others that are 
nearing the end of their time in The Spire.  That sounds ominous, but I'm merely 
talking about graduations to the Isle.  You bums come back next time and see what is 
happening in the "Jewel of No Tourney Arenas!"  Til then, losers!

On a much more serious note, Shadowspire along with the whole D2 community bids 
farewell to Otto, manager of Otto's Diner last week. Otto (Erik) lost his battle with 
cancer, and we are all saddened at his passing.  He was a great manager and a better 
person.  He was always ready with a joke or a movie reference, and was known for his 
clever D2 names.  We offer our condolences to his family and close friends and grieve 
with them in their loss.

1-4 turn. That was painful, not only did I lose 4 but Tymir my promising newbie died 
in his challenge. Oh well Trent will again be my Bloodfeud guy, and no hard feelings 
if he kills your guy, I wont be trying to kill but it is a pretty big down challenge. 
As per my usual, win or lose there will only be one bloodfeud challenge since it was 
my challenge.  Mallory finally won one, he still is underperforming skill-wise but I 
like his stats so as long as he doesn't die I'll try to keep him around. Liam is going 
to the dark arena. I have officially given up on TP as a valid style. I have one in 
adm and that is enough. The new guy Waldo is an idiot, but I'm going to run him 
anyway. RPB has a nice rollup, but we will see if he survives since Tymir also had a 
even better roll up and died in his second fight. Upside is RPB is ambidextrous so at 
least there is a bonus to attack. Oh well. Life as a duelmasters GM. -- Eli 

Thomas Merton -- Grats on defeating me and taking the Duelmasters Title. You kicked my 
butt pretty good. At least I had it for a couple of turns and no one can take that 
away. Look forward to reading your pearls of wisdom in your column. Now comes the hard 
part, defending the title. -- Narsil

Mangonel -- I was really surprised at the outcome of our fight. Wish I learned more 
skills, tho. -- Gurthang

Velina -- Oops! That didn't go the way I had hoped. My life in a nutshell. -- Broken 
Blade

Doot -- Doot? Really? Hahaha. So tell me, how do you have the ST to wear APM/H and go 
6 minutes, the CN to take the beating I laid on you, the WL to continually make your 
saving rolls and still manage learning 5 skills? Like wth, man?!? Must be nice. And to 
top it off, you landed that head shot on me right at the end of our fight and I 
thought you were going to steal the fight right out from under me, but the gods smiled 
favorably on me and I got the win. -- Ringil

"Hither came Conan, the Barber, black-haired, bloodshot-eyed, scissors in hand, a 
stylist, a hairdresser, a coiffeuese, with common melancholies and common mirth, to 
tread the planked floors of Alastari's salons under his sandaled feet." -- The 
Shadowspire ChroniclesMallory -- A guy needs some sleep after a beating like that. 
I'll just close my eyes and bleed a while. -- Mike Warhammer (Actually that's a real 
Mickey Spillane quote, it was just too apropos not to use.)

Chad -- Does your stable even have anyone left to fight with? -- Kill 'EM ALL

Chad -- Me and the boys have been talkin'...  We're real sorry and promise never to do 
it again. -- Weirdo

Ghost of David Paulson -- Sorry I chopped your spine in two. -- Deep Six

Ghost of Mr. Couderay -- Sorry I Superman Punched your head off your neck. -- Kaibosh

Dragos Dinca -- I ripped your guts out and watched you bleed to death while the crowd 
chanted, "Kill!  Kill!  Kill!" -- Deep Six

Fastrada -- Looks like you just got whipped by an over-the-shoulder boulder-holder. -- 
BooBie Trap

Ghost of Dragos Dinca -- Sorry, not sorry. -- Deep Six

Doctor J -- UNCLE!!! -- Xobias

Kareem -- Jeez! -- Ulrich

English Bob -- Well fought, till we meet again. -- Uhkant

Preatoria -- Whew, you almost wore me out. -- Zagrid

Stormcaller -- Can I reverse charges please. -- Zehdea

Kell 'Em All -- Yes, you did just that. -- Chad

Shankar -- War Flail?  Wow. -- Chad

Den -- Remember the conversation aobut my slasher riposting and not attacking? Well, 
Mr. Richard is not one of them.  Great fight last turn.  Battle on High Priest. -- 
Chad
P.S. Did you put Phil in time out?

Alt. Pulp -- Don't gloat yet, I started the same way in Shadowspire.  Now you have 
been noticed.  Grab a shovel. -- Chad

Erik "Otto X" -- All honor to your name!  You were a worthy adversary with a quick wit 
and great sense of humor. May you be showered in grail rollups and never be the 
recipient of food poisoning from the chefs in your Diner.  You will forever be missed. 
Rest in peace. We who continue to fight, salute you! -- DeGotti

Sad days indeed for the DM community with the losses of Papa Bear and Otto! -- DeGotti

We are saddened to announce that Otto X, long time Duelmasters manager, has passed.  
His creativity and sharp wit often caused random bursts of laughter here at RSI.  He 
was a challenging competitor, a friend to many, a kind soul, and he will be missed. 
Our thoughts are with his family.  Here is the link so you all can send your 
condolences.
