                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt MURSKA will ever be the same.  PHILANTHROPISTS 3 stable has parlayed this 
turn's 1-0-0 into a 3 space move up the rankings.  This brings them up to 4th place.  
Good work, guys!  The SATAN'S SWARM guild has had a 3-0-0 turn and deserves to be 
watched in the future.  You never know where this kind of thing can lead.  And let's 
see, FABULOUS FIREFLY fought GEOPHACT and gained 23 points and contributed to SATAN'S 
SWARM's 3-0-0.  GEOPHACT has lost to FABULOUS FIREFLY, falling 14 points, while 
helping make PHILANTHROPISTS 2 a 1-1-0 turn.  The attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster 
have failed, and DELYSSA remains MURSKA's top warrior for another turn.  Tell me, is 
nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Dragon's Hangover 
uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  I also notice that the SATAN'S SWARM stable was the most 
avoided team this turn.  Come on MURSKA, what are you afraid of?  And guess who 
avoided SATAN'S SWARM stable the most?  Believe it or not, it was HOUSE JHEREG.  
Anyone surprised?  Well, sports fans, take notice that TERRIBLE TARANTULA from 
SATAN'S SWARM was MURSKA's most challenged warrior this turn.  In a brave attempt, 
PHACTAMONIUS from LORDS OF DOOM challenged up 25 points to fight ORI OF SMALLCLIFF 
from the HOUSE JHEREG stable.  PHACTAMONIUS perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as 
he subdued ORI OF SMALLCLIFF and ended up with 91 recognition points.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their 
enemies.  You know who you are; and it's considered rude.   
     I like this place, MURSKA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.  
Who could ask for more?  Always good to rest in MURSKA, but never good to wear out my 
welcome.  Look for me in future turns.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to 
paper-- Alarond the Scribe
