                                      SPY REPORT

     I was going on vacation, see?  Surf, sun...  But what do those bums say?  "Hit 
the road, Debby Tonte.  ARDIVENT needs a spyreport."  Oh, well.  MVP award for 
BERNICE?  FANDILS' proud of her after beating POLITE BEGGAR and getting 14 points.  
Talk about yer big time losers!  POLLY got smashed by OVERREACHING ACAI, and lost 10 
points!  Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most popular guy in all ARDIVENT.  
He got the most challenges.  (But what about proposals?) Don't you think the 
Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think BOGGART should let BUSTED FLUSH be Duelmaster 
for a while, without fighting about it.  I hear the top team insists all their 
warriors get nine hours sleep.  They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  WILD CARDS was the most avoided team.  Is a 21-14-3 
record really that scary?  I don't know what FANDILS' been doing.  They certainly 
haven't been accepting many fights from WILD CARDS, that's fer sher.  For sure, I was 
holding my breath when I found out KITALPHA challenged ROSIE.  After all, haven't 
EQUUS PRIMUS and FANDILS had a long standing duel in ARDIVENT?  It wasn't a 
spectacular fight, or anything, but ROSIE wants me to write about it since she bested 
KITALPHA.  Satisfied?   
     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 really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really 
should stop.  Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
