                                      SPY REPORT

     So why do I have this bag over my head?  Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and 
I'm going to give you a spy report!.  We now have a new top team for all of you guys 
to dogpile on.  SNOT QUITE RIGHT now holds the crown and they are betting they can 
keep it.  THE REPUBLICANS is no joke as it posted a 4-1-1 week advancing from 3rd 
place to 2nd place.  Hey everybody, watch out for DUNCAN HUNTER, who flew up 21 
points in the rankings after mashing VIRGINAL CONCUBINE like a melon.  Keep your eye 
on this guy.  And falling like a basher in the top ten was VLAD, who dropped 10 
points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with J.D. VANCE.  Well, if ya 
don't shows up at the laundromat, ya can'ts wash yer clothes.  GYMNASTICS did not 
fight this week so his title was forfeit.  It's a proud day for the WRATHMEN 24-10 
stable, as their warrior, BOLD BLIGHT, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  Advice to 
bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd!   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the SOLVEN arena.  Did you 
hear that SNOT QUITE RIGHT was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the 
personal hygiene of SNOT QUITE RIGHT's warriors, I'm not surprised!  For those of you 
who like math, try this one:  SNOT QUITE RIGHT + Weapons That go Boom = THE 
REPUBLICANS + Avoid City.  And who is this J.D. VANCE you ask, with 27 points and a 
4-3-0 record.  Ooh, the tales I could tell!  Can any one out there say 'weasel'?  Oh 
well, just saying COMING ACHOO will do.  She challenged 19 points down to trash 
MEBIAN.  Definition of petty:  COMING ACHOO bested MEBIAN, a mismatch of 19 points.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Here's some advice:  warriors with little 
wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     I think I had better cut this one short.  It's been nice chatting to those of 
you whom I have not offended yet.  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks.  Its been 
fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos).  Now that I've got you worked up for Snide 
Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster
