                                      SPY REPORT

     So why do I have this bag over my head?  Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and 
I'm going to give you a spy report!.  Take a look at WAR TREK's act, as they have a 
3-2-0 week and gain 17 places in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf 
of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is MONSTER MASH-A, who swept up 13 places 
in the ranks.  Suffering under a 0-1-0 record and dropping from 14th to 28th place 
were the ROOKIE MAIDEN 15.  Keep trying!  A seasoned team is steady in the lists.  
But to TRIBE OF DAWN, which fell to 29th, it's what you soak in before going to the 
Dark Arena.  What goes up, must come down.  Watch out DWES EG!  TEN PRINCES may fall 
on you as it crushes past the teams below it to fall on the 32nd spot.  Hey 
everybody, watch out for JELLYBONE, who flew up 22 points in the rankings after 
mashing DANGEROUS CRIMINAL like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  Ya know, some 
days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  KING OF TWILIGHT was overcame by 
SUNSTEEL and drops 13 points.  Well, everybody's pal HARPY moved his record to 
15-11-0 by defeating BRIDGE OF HONOR in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 12 
recognition points.  4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and 
avoid aiming at that location.   
     Here is other news that is of note.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Knowing when to use the right tactics at 
the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in DWES EG have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  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
