                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster here with my bag to give you the news on last 
week's fights.  We now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on.  
THOUSAND SONS now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it.  Coming up 
with a solid 5-0-0 outing, THOUSAND SONS has advanced 3 places in the rankings.  It 
looks like the guys(?) at CHAOS KIDS had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them 
in 3rd place.  I guess steroids help!  Going for the gusto and coming up with aught 
but bloody knuckles was THE MAGNIFICENT MAGS' GALAXY, who was turned away from the 
Duelmastership by BLACK SAFARI.  4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so 
try and avoid aiming at that location.   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the ZUWAYZA arena.  Did you 
hear that THOUSAND SONS was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the personal 
hygiene of THOUSAND SONS' warriors, I'm not surprised!  And you guys like to boo me?  
Well, unsling your rasberries, cause DEMONIC CHILI'S beats feet every time THOUSAND 
SONS smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?  And who is this OBYSIS you ask, with 34 
points and a 5-1-1 record.  Ooh, the tales I could tell!  Can any one out there say 
'weasel'?  Oh well, just saying KUNG PAO will do.  He challenged 16 points down to 
trash RICOCHET.  Definition of petty:  KUNG PAO beat RICOCHET, a mismatch of 16 
points.  In a touching display by a 'touched' warrior, MAULERFIEND went after BLACK 
MAUL, who was higher by 22 points.  Well, when the dust settled, MAULERFIEND won 
victory over BLACK MAUL.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Knowing when to use the right 
tactics at the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in ZUWAYZA have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some 
tracks.  Its been real, and its been fun, but it hasn't been real fun...-- The 
Unknown Spymaster
