                                      SPY REPORT

     Thankyouthankyou.  It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in 
KOLACT.  Hope you enjoy the show.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I already got paid!  Hey 
everybody, watch out for SARDINE SALLY, who flew up 24 points in the rankings after 
mashing QUIP like a melon.  Keep your eye on this gal.  And falling like a basher in 
the top ten was ESTRELLA, who dropped 17 points after a disappointing (to say the 
least) bout with SADIE.  In front of all the crowds, CHIEF GREASY HAIR took the 
Duelmaster's crown for his own.  I give the bum two weeks.  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!   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Remember:  alliances are great, 
but try and take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in KOLACT have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  Well, there goes another Spy 
Report.  Good luck in next week's fights.  Hasta la bye-bye.  (Loud choruses of 'Beat 
it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster

Actaon -- I don't think I can hit any harder...but I can try. <grin>  Maybe a bigger
hitter's in order. -- Sardine Sally

Quip -- How'd you do that?  You shouldn't be able to do that.  I'll have to talk to
the boss about firing up the jets another notch or two.  Get both engines really
blasting.  Look you up on the flip-side when I'm shining. -- Waldo

Cynica -- "Wonderfull"  I'm thinking about monikerizing up to "Wanda the Wonderfull".
Or maybe "Wanda the Wicked".  OOOooooOOooo...... -- Wanda

Quasimodo -- Somehow, I'm not surprised you sneaked in and won that.  Way to go!
Write a column. -- Estrella, very glad not to be writing a column herself (I have
trouble with the columnar form and usually end up with a pediment instead)

Sardine Sally -- You came out onto the sands, and I said to myself, "There's
something fishy about that woman."  And by golly, I was right!  It's your tendency to
squeeze yourself into small spaces, crowding others closely, I think. -- Actaon
P.S.  Not to mention the oil.

Wanda -- I suspect, and call me cynical if you must but at your own risk, that there
is a "wand" concealed about you somewhere.  That performance was, after all, nearly
magical. -- Cynica, grudgingly accepting her loss

Sir Cumference -- And around and around we go.  Again. -- Callisto

Quiznos -- Don't think it will always be that easy!  You have the experience edge
over me, but I'll CATCH UP. -- Tiusday
P.S.  Not many people could make me feel short, but you managed.

All -- I support Vendetta Cartel's observation of The Dark Knights!  If war is
declared on V.C. by The Dark Knights, then war is also declared on The Dark Knights
of the Desolate Empire by The Avengers of Light!  We have been quietly awaiting such
a chance to expose ourselves (all interested parties contact me c/o The Barbarians:
DM 31, Attn: Timothias)!  Come, Vendetta Cartel, let us show these broke-down
"Knights" what true warriors are! -- Gemini Goldphoenix, Overlord of The Avengers of
Light
