                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  He who laughs last didn't get the joke.  
Speaking of laughing at jokes, observe FEARSOME FIVESOME.  Last week they got 1-1-0 
to drop by 4!  Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive 
observation?) as ABOMINATION can attest...  Say what you will about blind luck and 
dirty fighting, but JAY-Z will tell you 131-127-8 is nothing to laugh at...  Practice 
pays for ADALBJORN, who pummelled PURPLE HOOTER, to pocket 21 points.  PURPLE HOOTER 
certainly had a baffled expression on his face, after losing to ADALBJORN and losing 
19 points in the process!  Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were disappointed by 
HILLARY, of THE MENTORS, who despite a 13-9-0 couldn't overcome KOLACT's Number 1.  
So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last week and ordering milk?  
Sounds like a PR stunt to me.   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?  To quell some nasty rumors, the guys in 
ABOMINATION are not carrying any incurable diseases.  No need to avoid 'em.  Like a 
pup with its tail between its legs, VIKINGS scurried away from ABOMINATION.  Oh, the 
shame!  Is it charming personality?  Conversational abilities?  Good oral hygiene?  
Whatever it is, JHAARAN is the most challenged warrior.   
     Ah, the duel!  The roar of the oppenent, the smell of the crowd!  Q:  What's a 
record like 12-12-0 get you?  A:  A free trip to the Dark Arena!  This week's winner: 
YOUNG HOV of JAY-Z!  Citizens of KOLACT, be sure to settle your debts with THE 
PLUMBER of THE CLUB.  He's relocating to the Dark Arena and has other things on his 
mind!  Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.   
     Do not think spyreporting in KOLACT is the highlight of my life.  As if buffeted 
by forces of nature beyond my control, I must take my leave of this place.  KOLACT, I 
leave you now.  The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at Don Corleone's.  'Til 
next time-- Novgorodny Vir
