                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, VALAMANTIS?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, RANDOMNESS 3, since 
KEYBOARDS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  If this keeps up, 
SMITTY'S B&G, you'll have to shine swords instead of use them.  A drop of 4 in the 
rankings?  CHEER CAMP turned their 1-0-0 turn into a 5th place rank in the listings 
this turn.  Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists.  Now let's all watch 
KEYBOARDS' heads swell from their 4-0-0 this turn.  Haa ha ha ha!  Big shots, big 
talk, big deal.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see DUCKY ONE win a fight 
and gain 18 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, DUCKY ONE beat FIGHTBOT and FIGHTBOT lost 16 
points.  You're breakin' my heart.  Due to absence, and inability to defend the 
throne, EMBER LION has lost the Title of Duelmaster.  Start setting that alarm 
earlier!  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as REDRAGON takes the Title and 
last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  I'm not in a very good mood 
today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to know what's new, don't you, 
VALAMANTIS?   
     Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.  
SMITTY'S B&G, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided 
team.  Care to know who is the most afraid of you?  And who led the way in this mass 
act of cowardice?  Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was I'D BE GOOD.  Ha ha ha ha!  
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only 
shines through use.  Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.   
     I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for 
an epee.  Forgive me for writing with a dagger.  Well, I've had enough of this 
drivel, and I'm sure you have too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  Glad 
to see the back of this place-- Snide Clemens
