                                      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!.  For every winner there is a loser.  Speaking of 
losers, lets take a look at MENTOR DEMENTOR, who went down to 2nd from 7th.  Life is 
tough.  Coming up with a solid 1-1-0 outing, OBELISK 002 has advanced 3 places in the 
rankings.  THE RUNAROUND is no joke as it posted a 3-1-1 week advancing from 3rd 
place to 2nd place.  Hey everybody, watch out for GOLDEN DRAKE, who flew up 35 points 
in the rankings after mashing BITTER PILL like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  
Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  KITTY KAT lost to TRUE 
COLOURS and drops 11 points.  Well, everybody's pal HEAD CHEESE moved his record to 
11-3-0 by defeating KHALHUMS DWARF in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 13 
recognition points.  Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this 
stuff?   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!  
Did you hear that THE RUNAROUND was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the 
personal hygiene of THE RUNAROUND's warriors, I'm not surprised!  And you guys like 
to boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, cause STINKY MEAT beats feet every time 
THE RUNAROUND smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?   
     Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the 
most interesting, though!  Proving again that NIANIA is not rated G, HARDY BART of 
the THE RUNAROUND slew the warrior SAM THE WHALE in a rather bloody bout.  Let's look 
for a bloodfeud.  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 NIANIA 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

Four-one-one.  That's... a little scary.  Of course, *I* would have won, TOO, if my
NAME had been spelled right.  Jorja and her "it's amusing," ha! -- THE Haddock
P.S.  And only one standby for us today.

Mentor Dementor and Ghost of Chaney -- I *was* annoyed, and I had every intention of
winning, but... not like that. -- Guppy, just an innocent little fish
