SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! PUNNY AMINALS had cause to celebrate, after MAREY D'NUIT got 17 points
by beating THE USEROUS MERCHANT. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, STINGING
NETTLE was winsome, after beating CRICKET and seeing him lose 13 points. BUDOKUMO
found out being WILLAF's Duelmaster isn't all nuts and berries, receiving 6
challenges! You could cut the tension with a scimitar as ON GOLDEN POND of GOLDEN
GLADIATORS met the Duelmaster. Those who hoped for a new Duelmaster were
disappointed by ON GOLDEN POND, of GOLDEN GLADIATORS, who despite a 19-9-0 couldn't
overcome WILLAF's Number 1. Word has it one team in WILLAF is using psychics to
predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
And how sociable are WILLAF's warriors? Come, let us see. To quell some nasty
rumors, the guys in PUNNY AMINALS are not carrying any incurable diseases. No need
to avoid 'em. Like a pup with its tail between its legs, GOLDEN GLADIATORS scurried
away from PUNNY AMINALS. Oh, the shame!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not for whom the
sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
All good things must come to an end. My fingers tire and I fear my incessant
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character. Do not despair!
I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir

Shucks, Marey. You again. But I thought I had you figured. Musta been your great
strategy last time to not teach me any skills. Hopefully at least THAT changed. --
Gold Cache (Harkeny hands on hips in disgust)
Hmmmmm, Soap Eating Mouse, you are getting better and better. Less lie in the soap
nowadays? -- Silence Is Golden
He's really cleaning up.
Ondo -- Well, at least you didn't make it three in a row. Finally the water flows!
-- On Golden Pond
Baabra -- Life is feeling pretty golden for the moment. -- Goldbrick
Budokumo -- Congratulations on your Duelmastership. Will it be you and Cricket? --
Midas
Marey -- If there is such a thing as a sound fiscal policy, it certainly has not been
evident for a while. Now in my days .... -- Goldwater
On Golden Pond -- We meet again, what a surprise. I think this arena is too small.
And I certainly didn't want to go swimming in THIS weather, there's ice on the water
barrels! -- Ondo Fleur, shivering
Goldbrick -- You could teach better, curse you! -- Baabra Lammont
P.S. Or would that be too much work?
P.P.S. You know what they say, under the surface of every gold brick beats a heart
of lead.
Dorobo -- A fast one, my favorite kind. At least, when I win. -- Beau Ramn
Fratsfa Slave? Heck. -- Silvia Minno
Gold Cache -- No skills for either of us? Damn. Looks like we aren't cashing in on
this properly. -- Marey D'Nuit
Goldwater -- Well, water does tend to go downhill. -- Marey D'Nuit
