                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last 
week's fights.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's 
corny) is END OF THE LINE, who swept up 19 places in the ranks.  Take a look at DON'T 
MAKE SANDY's act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 11 places in the team ranking.  
Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is YEOMAN 
JOHNSON, who swept up 11 places in the ranks.  A seasoned team is steady in the 
lists.  But to STONED ROOKIES 5, which fell to 28th, it's what you soak in before 
going to the Dark Arena.  What goes up, must come down.  Watch out DWES EG!  DAMAGE 
INC. may fall on you as it crushes past the teams below it to fall on the 29th spot.  
Advancing in the rankings was BLOODSWORDS who went from last turn's 105-115-5, to 
this week's record of 108-116-5.  Hey everybody, watch out for DINKROMANCER, who flew 
up 20 points in the rankings after mashing FALLING RAIN like a melon.  Keep your eye 
on this guy.  And falling like a basher in the top ten was FALLING RAIN, who dropped 
17 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with DINKROMANCER.  The most 
challenged warrior this week was GORMU.  If this keeps up, our Duelmaster's going to 
need more avoids!  Drawing on all of his experience as a 15-9-1 warrior, PROTON 
AGONIZER went for the Duelmastership against GORMU this week.  It's a proud day for 
the KNIGHTS OF GLORY stable, as their warrior, PROTON AGONIZER, ascended the 
Duelmaster's throne.  Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this 
stuff?   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the DWES EG arena.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' 
category, FALLING RAIN was mashed by DINKROMANCER, who let FALLING RAIN know that 
killing members of HIDDEN MAGIC is a no-no.  Ask not the elves for counsel, for they 
will say both yes and no.  Silly buggers, eh?   
     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
