                                      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.  
ASSASSINS now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it.  Coming up with 
a solid 1-3-0 outing, RANDOMNESS 3 has advanced 3 places in the rankings.  Advancing 
in the rankings was ASSASSINS who went from last turn's 24-25-0, to this week's 
record of 28-26-0.  Hey everybody, watch out for RIO SANDS, who flew up 14 points in 
the rankings after mashing FIGHTBOT like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  Ya 
know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  POUNCER was defeated by 
DANGEROUS CRIMINAL 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.  An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a 
day keeps T.P.s at bay.   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!  
Here's a song for you:  Who's afraid of the big, bad  MISSISSIPPI BLUES?  Big bad 
MISSISSIPPI BLUES.  Big bad MISSISSIPPI BLUES.  VALAMANTIS' afraid of the big bad 
MISSISSIPPI BLUES.  Tra la la la la!  For those of you who like math, try this one:  
MISSISSIPPI BLUES + Weapons That go Boom = DARK AGES + Avoid City.   
     Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the 
most interesting, though!  NUPHY defied all odds and slew SHEWISH GIANT in the Dark 
Arena.  The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as SHEWISH GIANT's meat is 
notoriously tough.  For those of you who missed it, Death showed up, grabbed KELPIE 
by the ear and took her away to a place where she won't need a coat.  Here's some 
advice:  warriors with little wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the 
Isle.   
     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
