SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
ARKERS brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. Later days, THE CHOSEN, since BLOODY
HAND CLAN took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Gee, I'm
impressed, a 3-0-0 is nice, but don't get cocky, SMITHSONIAN, the Fates teach
humility, and the Fates are proud. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see
BASIL HAYDEN win a fight and gain 27 points, terribly. CHESHIRE MOON challenged
ARKERS' Duelmaster for a shot at the throne. And it's out with the old, in with the
new, as CHESHIRE MOON takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old
Duelmaster. Heh, heh. The Welcome Wench, humph! I've tasted better ale at
mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From ARKERS' trash dumps?
My mother always told me, 'If you don't have anything nice to say, start
talking.' I loved that woman. THE OUTLAWS 2, 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 THE CHOSEN. Ha ha ha ha! CLAY ALLISON was challenged more times this turn than
the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. I guess I can give a
little credit to TEXAS RED of THE OUTLAWS 2 for challenging up by 22 to LISA
YAKVIGOR. TEXAS RED won to get 92 points of recognition.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for ARKERS'
morgue. More variety. And sending ZEKE to the Dark Arena was supposed to be one of
your better ideas, Z GLADIATORZ? It's about time CLAY ALLISON got beat for picking
on warriors like MODEL T. Bravo, SMITHSONIAN. See you at The Welcome Wench.
Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds
of weapons?
What does the ARKERS 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! I see the crowds are getting restless, I
must leave now-- Snide Clemens

Yikes! A Mild opher and one dead?! Not my favorite type of round. -- Curator
Oregon trail was an 11-14-9-21(+1)-15-4-11 plunger norm endu/good damage. In general,
her manager did not know what he was doing. Perhaps he should go back to curating? --
