                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills, and spills?  Well
fergit it, cause this is the spy report for FREE BLADES, and what's more, I'm tired.
So we'll go with the short version, okay?  MVP (Most V. Point gain) award for MIMOSA?
PHILANTHROPISTS' proud of him after beating AUGUSTUS I and getting 45 points.  Talk
about yer major upsets!  KJARRAN'S HAMMER's match with COMRADE KOOK cost him a loss
of 22 points!  The Lord Marshal isn't going to stop just 'cause he's Number One!
KELOS knows this.  He was TV challenged by the Duelmaster.  This Duelmaster is like
something else!  KING LOVE stopped KELOS dead in his tracks!  Good!  That Kelos is a
killer, and we don't want that kind of thing here, do we?  I mean, this isn't
Darkholm.  I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep.  They
want photogenic fighters for PR photos.  Well, not photos, actually, but they've got
a Lightning Sketch Artist.
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just
wing this stuff.  PHILANTHROPISTS was FREE BLADES' most avoided team.  Is there some
award for that?  Is there some deep dark secret why HOUNDS OF HELL's been avoiding
PHILANTHROPISTS so much?  Or is it just that they're too scared?  Of course, since
they're out there fighting, they can't be TOO scared.  Like, is VICTIM OF SOCIETY
popular, or what?  He was challenged the most in all of FREE BLADES!  He's got a 52-
46-2, is that good?
     See if I ever talk to NEBUCHADNEZZAR again!  JELIAH BIGABO was so low when He
challenged him.  Uh, who challenge whom?  Not that I ever talk to either of these
guys, I mean, they don't answer, so why should I, you know, bother?  Hhmph!  I was
sorry to see such an unfair "fight" in FREE BLADES.  Well, maybe not.  It isn't like
this is a big deal.  NEBUCHADNEZZAR got 21 points after beating JELIAH BIGABO, 29
points below him.  I'm not so sure ROMULUS knew all the facts when he challenged
JAMMIES of DARKLINGS.  That off-hand Teddy Bear is dangerous!  I saw ROMULUS
stumbling and dribbling at The Cooler last week... well, at least I know someone who
said he saw Romulus, I don't go there, myself.  Do you think ROMULUS knew something
before he challenged JAMMIES?  He got a win and 13 points.  What will the guy do
next?  Ooh!  Did ACID BATH really know what he was doing when he challenged SISTER X?
A 17-3-0 speaks volumes.  (Zontoni said that.  I don't know what it means.) ACID BATH
lost to SISTER X, but he got 3 points.  SISTER X won, and got 11 points.  I don't get
it.  There are too many points showing up out of, you know, nowhere.  This is point
inflation.
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give
it a break?  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out of a job,
that's what!!!  I could retire to Bonsur and sit on the beach.
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous spy reporter?  I gotta leave.  FREE BLADES is like such a dump, and you guys
smell too much!  Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby
Tonte

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Caesar & Romulus -- Actually, I have been reading every Column and ad that has been
written in Free Blades over the past few months.  I agree that it is very
disheartening seeing the muteness that is this arena.  It is indeed pathetic.  I
actually would have preferred if you stayed on top as I always enjoy your ads and
columns.  They are by far some of the most entertaining and amusing writings I read.
It is a shame that more managers don't take the time and effort that you do each
turn.  You need to come back to Arvat.  I don't want to hear about how crappy the
rollup pool is there.  We all have to deal with the same crappy rollups.  What takes
talent is winning with those crappy rollups.  My winning percentage is over 65% in
there with garbage.  Are you saying you can't be as successful as I have been with

the same junk that you get?  Come my friend.  Embrace the suckatude.  Relish the
vileness that is the 5 wit 3 will rollup.  Once you do you'll enjoy this game a lot
more. -- Mad Max

King Love & the Sandman -- Congrats on the title. -- Mad Max

Caesar -- Cheeseburgers?  I guess that could be me but the impressive display was
Boss Rat.  Cigars and vodka is the Dark One and yourself.  You have the heavy-
handedness down though with me.  How I miss your ramblings of "Big-Joe-Hands!".
Perhaps the next time we are in the Elm City we can get together for a pie or 2 from
Pepe's and a pitcher of their finest ale.  The Dark One has been slacking on the
Yale-Colgate hockey game updates.  We haven't been to one in ages.  Now, my friend.
Return to Arvat!  Caesar is summoned!  Mad Max has spoken!

     I hope I'm getting the punctuation correct here, but, let's face it, when it
     comes to html, I'm guessing.  I think I'm close though. -- Temp Ed.

Jorja and the Sand Dancers -- Hmmm.  What can I do to help relieve the strike?
Better wagers?  Less hours?  Work with me.  I'll see what I can do. -- Mad Max

Dartman -- That was a pretty brave challenge, but then you didn't follow through.  I
tried to teach you some stuff, but it didn't seem like you were paying attention. --
Jammies

Tom Bombadil -- Wow.  I don't get people breaking my weapon very often.  Sometimes
the blades the Commission provides aren't the best, though, I think.  Mass produced.
But I suppose it's fairer than the alternative, which is for all of us to bring our
own equipment into the arena. -- Royland

Claudius -- (wincing)  That had to leave a mark.  I was aiming for your shoulder,
really--you just stuck your face into the path of my sword.  Sorry about that and I
hope you're over the resurrection hangover. -- Kelos
P.S.  You DID challenge someone with three times your experience.  Things happen.

     People keep saying that.

Superior Forces -- Remind your manager to change your train.  That was a pretty good
fight.  You were doing well until I got through your defenses just once. -- Nightfall

The Quickling -- I was surprised to win that.  Your style usually does well against
me. -- Loping Wolf

T-Bone -- Well, the outcome of our match wasn't surprising, considering our relative
experience.  I thought you did well, though. -- Nightcap

Reprehensible -- Oops.  Didn't mean to keep attacking when you were down--I just had
a lot of momentum, you know?  I hope you're feeling better.  They say resurrection is
a bitch... but then, you may already have known that.  Were you brought back in a
dead tourney? -- Javelino

Debby T. -- Why bother coming "back after him" as you stated?  Until the game is
righted, there is really no way for me to beat him. -- Romulus

     Listen, I don't even remember what we were talking about, but I'm sure you're
     right.  Or, you know, close enough.

Debby T. -- Call it sour grapes, make up some witty remark, whatever...  The old
saying "It is what it is" certainly applies here.  Again, we appeal to the GC to
remedy this Aimed Blow issue and return the game to a more realistic operating
environment! -- Caesar

     Well, we can hope, of course.  Sometimes stranger things have happened.

Jorja had a hissy fit and said we all had to do personals again, so... here goes. --
Sand Dancers et al

Nebuchadnezzar -- Why would anyone have a name you can't spell and aren't sure how to
pronounce?  By the time the herald was done sputtering, the fight was over! --
Tairikia

Sanguine -- You certainly believe in throwing your name around, don't out?  Soaking
in cold water won't be enough to get these stains out. -- Damoreth Stenn

The Mad Carrot -- Pretty darned horrible, if you ask me. -- Mouse Noyle

Golem -- You're a tiny thing, aren't you? -- Darlina

Smug Bub -- *squash* -- Redfox
