                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out NIANIA to see 
what's new.  MVP award for HARDY BART?  THE RUNAROUND's proud of him after beating 
TEH HADDOCK and getting 14 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  TEH HADDOCK's match 
with HARDY BART cost him a loss of 4 points!  And I was just getting used to the 
ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome PIKESTAVE.  Aren't THE GOLDEN FISH 
proud.  (Oh, my.) I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours 
sleep.  They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All NIANIA ever talks about is fighting!  Me, 
I'm more laid back.  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out of a 
job, that's what!!!   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really 
should stop.  I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

Three-two, MUCH better.  I had the biggest win, defeating an actual managed
gladiator; Peter and Haddock beat standbys.  But we can go with this.  This is pretty
good.  I like it. -- Sam the Whale
P.S.  Peter thinks HE should get to do The Personal, because he's the Popularity
Leader, but what's the good of that?  HE only defeated a standby.
