SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt WILLAF will ever be the same. It seems the training can make the difference,
as PUNNY AMINALS is pushed out of top team by GOLDEN GLADIATORS, who came from 2nd
with a 2-1-0 this turn. And let's see, HEART OF GOLD fought PENNY LOPEZ and gained
17 points and contributed to GOLDEN GLADIATORS' 2-1-0. PENNY LOPEZ has lost to HEART
OF GOLD, falling 15 points, while helping make PUNNY AMINALS a 3-2-0 turn. The
attempts to dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and TANOSHII remains WILLAF's top
warrior for another turn. Can someone confirm a rumor for me? I hear the top team
makes their losing fighters do dishes at The Welcome Wench until they win. Maybe?
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 PUNNY AMINALS
stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on WILLAF, what are you afraid of?
And guess who avoided PUNNY AMINALS stable the most? Believe it or not, it was
GOLDEN GLADIATORS. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that KILDILLI
DALL from PUNNY AMINALS was WILLAF's most challenged warrior this turn.
We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and
shave it close? A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover
or hide when the fight is over. Consider well.
Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe. Dare
to fight bravely. Always good to rest in WILLAF, but never good to wear out my
welcome. Look for me in future turns. Until you see my quill in WILLAF again,
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Dorobo -- Thanks for the challenge. I needed an easy fight to allow me to rest up
for the real thing. Ho, hum. You and Kinyobi are so nice to me. -- Golden Retriever
Kinyobi -- Good choice! Wurm Kin was probably a good call. -- Golden Retriever
Kildilli -- I knew I could. I knew I could. I knew I could. -- On Golden Pond
Convicted Assassin and Dangerous Criminal -- It is nice to know the inmates will chip
in when needed. Thanks. -- Heart Of Gold and 24 Carat
Dunroe -- Sorry to spoil your reputation, but now you know how to enjoy life. (wink)
-- Heart Of Gold
RUG #57912 -- I am willing to trade gold and other goodies for rolls, but, from what
I have seen, I don't think you have or can provide anything I want. -- Midas
Don't want gold. -- RUG #57912
Ondo Fleur -- Try as I may, try as I might, I just can't seem to get the first
strike! -- Lyra
Heart of Gold -- Us ladies will be here a long time. I am sure we will be seeing
each other on the sands again. Breaking hearts is what I am good at...well
sometimes. -- Anis
On Golden Pond -- I looked very closely, and it looks to ME like what makes you
golden is, you know, some kind of algae. Well, not algae, because it's got little
yellow flowers, like mustard, but it's a water plant anyway, the kind that wraps
around swimmers and DROWNDS them. So I'm not going to, like, swim in your old pond,
so there! -- Kildilli Dall
P.S. Even if it's warming up nicely, which it is, because the ice is ALL gone,
although there was a heavy fog this morning.
Lyra -- Ah, you are indeed a lovely flower of a woman. I've always been partial to
tall women, you know. They don't need help getting things off high shelves, which
saves a lot of tedious interruptions in a man's life. -- Ondo Fleur
P.S. Why did you learn only one skill? That is hardly a maximum result, young lady!
Tanoshii -- I salute you; you not only retain the title--deservedly--but have
parlayed into an Invitation to the Isle. Excellent work. -- Penny Lope
M. Chardinee? I believe I may have been insulted, but it moved me to a winning
record, so maybe not. I rather like having a winning record. -- Penny Lopez
Anis -- Oh, don't tell me! You knew I had a couple of skills squirreled away (I
usually gopher them, that being more secure), and you thought you'd take a chance, so
you bribed the Match-Up Gods. (grumble mutter) Good fight, actually. You got me
coming and going. -- Dunroe Minh
Our congratulations to Tanoshii. -- Jorja and the Punny Animals
As threatened, here is a current manager list for this arena. Let me know if
I've gotten anyone's name wrong! -- The Saint, keeper of lists
