                                      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!.  It was a tough week for PROJECT MAYHEM 277, to 
drop 7 places in the rankings.  Coming up with a solid 1-0-0 outing, OF WOLF AND MAN 
has advanced 8 places in the rankings.  Hey everybody, watch out for REDRIX, who flew 
up 24 points in the rankings after mashing SABOR like a melon.  Keep your eye on this 
guy.  Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  SABOR was defeated 
by REDRIX and drops 23 points.  The most challenged warrior this week was COFFIN 
SHRED.  If this keeps up, our Duelmaster's going to need more avoids!  LIGDISH BANG 
got through to the Duelmaster this turn.  No doubt he was more than anxious to kick 
COFFIN SHRED's tail out of the throne!  Going for the gusto and coming up with aught 
but bloody knuckles was PHILANTHROPISTS II's LIGDISH BANG, who was turned away from 
the Duelmastership by COFFIN SHRED.  An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an 
onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.   
     Here is other news that is of note.   
     Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the 
most interesting, though!  Here's some advice:  warriors with little wit and will may 
encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     Well, there's the manager of the JASPER GULCH giving me the 'cut' sign (or is 
that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  Well, there goes another Spy 
Report.  Good luck in next week's fights.  See ya next time I'm on this circuit!--
