                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  The boys at THE BLUES 50 left the arena 
dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by 5280 HIGH.  Good show!  5280 HIGH 
had cause to celebrate, after WENDY T got 17 points by beating KARRAGIT SLAVE.  Win 
some, lose some.  Speaking of which, DANGEROUS CRIMINAL was winsome, after beating 
BLIZZARD and seeing him lose 3 points.  Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were 
disappointed by SNOW PLOW, of MIDDLE WAY 6, who despite a 13-9-0 couldn't overcome 
SNOWBOUND's Number 1.  So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and 
challenging dead trees?  Someone's got a basic problem...   
     My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. 
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights!  Like the noble eagle soaring amongst 
the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of SATAN'S CHILDREN, alone and unchallenged.  
The warriors of SATAN'S CHILDREN found their efforts at combat frustrated as OPEN 
SESAME apparently had more important things to do than fight.  Everyone is famous for 
fifteen minutes, and MURRAY MONSTER is it right now.  Most challenged warrior.  Isn't 
OPEN SESAME proud!   
     Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.  
Justice was served as MURRAY MONSTER fought METAL ANGELO in bloodfeud.  Well done, 
OPEN SESAME!  Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you 
have fallen into an unconscious stupor.   
     Do not think spyreporting in SNOWBOUND is the highlight of my life.  My fingers 
tire and I fear my incessant prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable 
character.  Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid SNOWBOUND 
farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
