                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, ARKERS?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, OFF THE DEEP END, since 
FIGHTING IRISH took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  MIDDLE WAY 
11 turned their 3-1-0 turn into a 4th place rank in the listings this turn.  Any 
better than this, and you get put on hit lists.  Now let's all watch FIGHTING IRISH's 
heads swell from their 4-1-1 this turn.  Haa ha ha ha!  Big shots, big talk, big 
deal.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see CAILLEACH win a fight and gain 
13 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, POTTER SANDS beat MICROAGGRESSION and MICROAGGRESSION 
lost 6 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  TICOTIN challenged FELDSPAR for ARKERS' 
Title this turn, and guess what happened?  And if variety is the spice of life, 
ARKERS may be getting bland, as TICOTIN stays top dog in the city.  Kickbacks and 
bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their 
fights?  Skill?  Ha!   
     My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start 
talking.' I loved that woman.  FELDSPAR was challenged more times this turn than the 
Duelmaster.  Now was the DM insulted or feared?  Heh, heh.  I guess I can give a 
little credit to TOKYO ROSE of FAR TRAVELERS for challenging up by 23 to POOKA.  
TOKYO ROSE lost to get 81 points of recognition.   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  Bye bye, warrior, bye bye...  FELDSPAR, a 
glorious 23-25-0 fighter, has passed away.  Gee, too bad FIGHTING IRISH.  And what a 
stunning loss we have here, boys and girls, BERTIE of MIDDLE WAY 11 has added the 
final loss to his 3-22-0.  Tee hee!  We're all going to die in the end, so why worry 
if the fate catches up with you sooner that later?   
     What does the ARKERS arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Phlllt!  Just had to do that 
before I leave the fine city of ARKERS.  I feel much better now.  I see the crowds 
are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens
