SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
VALAMANTIS. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! It
looks like the guys(?) at DARK AGES had a good week as they went 4-1-0 to put them in
2nd place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for VIRULINA, who flew
up 19 points in the rankings after mashing RIO SANDS like a melon. Keep your eye on
this gal. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. RIO SANDS
lost to VIRULINA and drops 14 points. Our battling duelmaster EMBER LION has managed
to hold the title, fending off EARTHO's none too subtle advances. Better luck next
time, RIO VISTANS. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff?
Here is other news that is of note. Did you hear that RANDOMNESS 3 was most
avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of RANDOMNESS 3's
warriors, I'm not surprised! Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch ASSASSINS' act
in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from RANDOMNESS 3.
Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, THE DRUID would be president.
Although it may be a contest she doesn't want to win.
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! Congrats to THE DRUID for
revenging the death of hers teammate (but more importantly, feeding LINDA VISTA a bit
of dirt). Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very
important step on the road to Duelmaster.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Well, there goes another Spy Report. Good luck in
next week's fights. Its been real, and its been fun, but it hasn't been real
fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster
