Good Guys Activity Report -- Empire edition
As the presses were grinding to a halt last night, a quick snoop revealed a possible overnight attempt by The Trust:
Kittin 457,218,359 Ninja 58 -- would we wake up to a major change in the point spread?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Streeeeeeeeeeetch** -- morning arrives:
282 Empire
262 The Trust
The gap is unchanged -- no overnight moves by either camp.
Both teams prepare for the daily click-a-thon - FutureShop reports massive increase in mouse sales.
Breaking news:
Olbaid's participation is decreased somewhat!!
Overheard in the Empire recreation area: ... 'don't know if I'll be slashing much in the coming weeks... I'll be on and off...'
The E-team is not worried...'enjoy yourself' ..'have a ball!' .. team spirit flows copiously
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A Battle Cry thunders forth around mid-day:
"Wakey Wakey Empire Slashers , Level 31 Paladin here"
(Silly Pallly -- that's a BoBarb's job!!)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Movement detected in The Trust encampment:
Kittin 458,277,471 Ninja 59 -- another determined surge to close the gap!
Kittin 459,346,933 Ninja 60 -- ever closer, stepping OH, so carefully!
For most of the afternoon - she stalks -- seeking the right opportunity, perhaps??
Her pending assault on the dreaded MQ is cheered on by awestruck spectators;
graciously she acknowledges their support:"Thanks guys." (cute curtsy performed)
Empire lumbers on, (or is it slumbers on??) -- apparently unconcerned...What confidence!!
Mid afternoon:::
Kittin 459,894,912 Ninja 60 --- She pounces! Can she do it? ---
The board grinds to a halt, not daring to click for fear of disturbing her concentration ...
Kittin 460,016,534 Ninja 61 --- And now! She is ready to deliver a deadly blow to overcome the MQ! Will she?? Can she??
Kittin 400,000,000 Ninja 1 --- NO!NO! NO! -- Apparently a claw got broken -- throwing her off balance!!
Battered and bedraggled she returns to her troops for salmon and strawberry cream, washed down with a Pink Lady.
Empire continues on -- with barely a backwards glance at the events behind them....
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rumblings heard from the Natester: "Level 58 Paladin , will be a monk soon now"
Hmmm --- haven't we heard that before? --- Deja vu, all over again --- maybe?
Double-shot-time??? (clinking sounds emanate from a poorly hidden bar)
masterak 159,409,104 Samurai 60
natester 258,285,278 Paladin 59
mid-evening -- no movement -- must be a council of war ( or a 'spiritual' gathering)
earlier reports of Olbaid taking it easy seem questionable:
Olbaid 653,018,568 Headhunter 54 --- maybe it's one more try for the Alchemist before he relaxes?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
late evening:
natester 259,449,153 Paladin 60
masterak 159,799,734 Samurai 60
Seems there is a game-plan evolving here??
natester 200,147,248 Paladin 1 He has tripped over his sword! It seems today is nothing but disasters for both teams!
He picks himself up, dusts himself off: "+1 for the good guys , bleh. Good night guys''
Masterak is motionless -- will he take his shot before press deadline??
Looks like a no - but look out for tomorrow - He and Olbaid are sure to make some noise! As well as some other battlers coming up!
