SPY REPORT
Hail and well met warriors of DWES EG! Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari. Former top team BLOODSWORDS was
unseated this week as FALLEN MASTERS moved up from 2nd ranking to take the top spot
with a 1-2-0 record for the round. I have begun to suspect trickery on the part of
ARCANE TESTAROSSA. How else weeks like this one's 2-0-0? How else the sudden move
to 7th team? The proverbial rising comet can only hope to compare with BLUES VI's
team record! A 1-0-0 week and now a firm grasp on a 9th place ranking. I have begun
to suspect trickery on the part of STONED ROOKIES 2. How else weeks like this one's
1-0-0? How else the sudden move to 10th team? THE RULING CLASS bore the brunt of
major assault on their standings this week as they dropped to 20th position as the
result of going 0-3-0! My tutors were fond of telling me that the higher you rise
the harder you fall. This week BLACKSMITH SHOP went 0-1-0 and fell 12 notches into
28th! MADNESS bore the brunt of major assault on their standings this week as they
dropped to 33rd position as the result of going 0-1-0! TYBERION caught the eye of
many in the gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested GREEN PAPER and was
awarded 20 points in recognition. In one of the week's more notable duels, ROBERT
NIGHTHAWK put down STORMTOUCHED, causing him to lose 12 points of recognition in the
process. Not for nothing has CONCORKILL in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's
throne, and this week he's proven his combat skill yet again. Informants "close" to
the city champion have told me that he never fights without pantyhose on beneath his
armor. Watch out!
Many and various are the arts of battle. In DWES EG "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! My inside sources tell me that the team to beat
in DWES EG these days is SCARLET CHAPEL. At least, most blades in town are looking
to avoid them. If you didn't look down dark alleys you'd have been hard pressed to
find any of NINJITSU MASTERS last week. Busy avoiding SCARLET CHAPEL? Mighty
fighters cannot but expect competition from those below. SUN KING take warning! You
have more than a few enemies in DWES EG.
Vendettas. Bloodied blades and broken spears. Indeed the city has seen more
than its fair share of red in recent times. Some say a warrior is judged by the way
he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then a sword on the belt!
A thought before I go. Each warrior practices one style, but must not the wise
manager learn the secrets of them all? Sadly warriors, now longer can I keep thy
company nor savor the ale of thy fine city. Depart I must and soon! 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.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

For those who don't know, the Misfit Toys are a project of Master Beru. In addition
there are other teams who were shifted here back in 2007 when he first returned to DM,
such as Ninjitsu Masters. One play note: since Dwes Eg has numerous tournament
warriors, I have adjusted my rules for challenges to include anyone in my warriors
same class or above. And as of this time, my intention is to only play warriors here
in preparation for tournaments. Be warned if you are sending challenges! -- Master
Beru
