SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, DRAGONHEAD? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. If The Swinging Aardvark is buying
drinks for BB SOCCER's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before long. A
2-0-0 makes for a big thirst. With any luck, I can sneak into The Swinging Aardvark
and join GIANTS & GOLEMS IX's celebration over their good record this turn. 7th
place, not bad. Look out below! PLATINUM HORDE is on the way down, falling to 32nd
from 18th with a 0-1-0! Ha ha ha ha! Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see
THE GREAT EVIL win a fight and gain 16 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, SAND GIANT beat
TAILGATING and TAILGATING lost 9 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety
is the spice of life, DRAGONHEAD may be getting bland, as SLOWINFASTLANE stays top
dog in the city. Kickbacks and bribes, kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think
some of these guys win their fights? Skill? Ha!
Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.
WOMEN OF CHATZY, 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 it looks like BASH BROS
COMMUTER avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask
me. Hmph. QUARGOL-SEVEN was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.
Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for DRAGONHEAD's
morgue. More variety. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is
developing these kinds of weapons?
What does the DRAGONHEAD arena have in common with the inns? It's just as
comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Just wait 'till next time I show
up here, I won't be so nice! So nyaaah! Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll
need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens
