                                      SPY REPORT

     Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in KOLACT this turn, and let's start 
with a look at some of the teams.  It seems the training can make the difference, as 
ABOMINATION is pushed out of top team by CHUCK'S PINUPS, who came from 5th with a 
4-0-0 this turn.  Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to 
drown for ANTHROPOS KRATOS, whose 2-3-0 this turn dropped them by 4 into 8th.  
CHUCK'S PINUPS stable has parlayed this turn's 4-0-0 into a 4 space move up the 
rankings.  This brings them up to 1st place.  Good work, guys!  The THE MENTORS guild 
has had a 4-1-1 turn and deserves to be watched in the future.  You never know where 
this kind of thing can lead.  And let's see, JOBS fought SY FY and gained 26 points 
and contributed to THE MENTORS' 4-1-1.  DROCK has lost to ALLY YEAR MONEY, falling 9 
points, while helping make THE MENTORS a 4-1-1 turn.  We should ask SALTY DOG about 
the thrill of victory, and what being the new Duelmaster does for a warrior, he's now 
the one to ask.  Tell me, is nothing sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources 
that Don Corleone's uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     He who challenges well, fights well.  He who avoids without cause, shall lose 
for good reasons.  My mama told me that one.  I also notice that the ANTHROPOS KRATOS 
stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on KOLACT, what are you afraid of?  
And avoiding ANTHROPOS KRATOS more than any other team we find GLORY HOUNDS.  KOLACT, 
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior 
this turn was ABOMINATION's warrior SY FY.  More fighters challenged her than 
challenged the Duelmaster!  In a brave attempt, HILLARY from THE MENTORS challenged 
up 23 points to fight HAMMER from the GLORY HOUNDS stable.  HILLARY perhaps got hers 
just desserts, seeing as she beat HAMMER and ended up with 84 recognition points.  
SCRAPY DORK of ORL 2013V had better have a good reason for challenging down 10 points 
in a challenge which he won.  I thought SCRAPY DORK showed great skill and promise 
when he subdued IRON MAN 2.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once.  Wise men know this to 
be true.  SY FY has departed KOLACT, leaving ABOMINATION without their 9-6-0 warrior. 
Question, just what was hers team doing at the taverns last night?  A brave warrior 
does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.  
Consider well.   
     I like this place, KOLACT, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.  
Who could ask for more?  Well, I'm burning daylight here in KOLACT and I've a long 
road ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until you see my quill in KOLACT again, farewell-- 
Alarond the Scribe
