                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings warriors!  It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the 
clash and bustle of the weekly IAYE games.  WU-SAN caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested BACKSTABBATH and was awarded 14 
points in recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, WU-SAN put down 
BACKSTABBATH, causing him to lose 12 points of recognition in the process.  Although 
NEAL made a valiant effort, it did not suffice to topple the reign of victorious 
=^.^=.  Informants "close" to the city champion have told me that he never fights 
without pantyhose on beneath his armor.  Watch out!   
     But come now, let us look deeper into the maze of contention and crossed blades 
that is city IAYE.  My inside sources tell me that the team to beat in IAYE these 
days is CLOWDER W/ CLAWS.  At least, most blades in town are looking to avoid them.  
Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent the better part 
of last week avoiding CLOWDER W/ CLAWS.  Indeed it was LENPROS.   
     Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser?   Warriors, may this counselor stand 
ready at your right hand forever!  The warrior's path is harsh.  For mediocrity there 
is but one reward--death.  This past week IOSO-SAN, at 0-10-0, departed IAYE forever. 
Fate is a fickle mistress.  She showers the miserable with fortune but sets enemies 
against the victorious.  Remember this!   
     If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times 
already in IAYE.  Nice atmosphere you have here!  Ahh, but I can hear the spires of a 
far off city calling to me.  I must away!  Till next we meet remember - the pen is 
mightier than the sword, but a maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes
