SPY REPORT
Well, what are you looking at, TALCAMA? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens
before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, WIZARDGUARD, since IMPURE
THOUGHTS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Now keep the
taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown for WIZARDGUARD, whose
2-3-0 this turn dropped them by 6 into 7th. Ha! CAULDRON OF HATE turned their 4-1-0
turn into a 2nd place rank in the listings this turn. Any better than this, and you
get put on hit lists. Now let's all watch BURN N' PILLAGE's heads swell from their
3-1-0 this turn. Haa ha ha ha! Big shots, big talk, big deal. Of course, we're all
terribly impressed to see YELLOW TANG win a fight and gain 21 points, terribly. Tsk,
tsk, AKAI beat THE CLOSER and THE CLOSER lost 16 points. You're breakin' my heart.
And it's out with the old, in with the new, as THE PHILANDERER takes the Title and
last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster. Heh, heh. Kickbacks and bribes,
kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights?
Skill? Ha!
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.
TALCAMA, I am losing what little hope I had in you. CENTER FOR OLDS the most avoided
team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And it looks like SHEPHERDS avoided
them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me. Hmph. Ooh,
I'm frightfully impressed, HOFFA was this turn's most challenged warrior. Watch that
ego swell, sports fans. Now look at this. GAD challenged down 19 against BURN N'
PILLAGE's PEZ. What a weasel! And sorry to say, GAD subdued PEZ, leaving a bad
feeling with the crowd. I think exploitive snob is the term I'm looking for. JB
BLAH was challenged by one of WIZARDGUARD's warriors this turn, with SKYWALKER having
a lead of 22 points going into the fight. Question now is, will TALCAMA accept this
sort of tacky behavior? SKYWALKER beating JB BLAH. The insult, the....yech! I
guess I can give a little credit to ADAM of SHEPHERDS for challenging up by 25 to
HOFFA. ADAM lost to get 78 points of recognition.
Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and
gone, and get to see if their team cared. I could say I saw this coming, but so
could anyone else. Anyway, this turn it came. SCARLET SKARAB's 4-8-1 has earned her
the Dark Arena. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines through use.
Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
There's got to be a better place in TALCAMA to get a drink than The Original
Arthur's Last Stand! Any suggestions? Just wait 'till next time I show up here, I
won't be so nice! So nyaaah! I see the crowds are getting restless, I must leave
now-- Snide Clemens

PERSONAL ADS
All -- It's nice to see that at least one arena has maintained a decent number of
teams. I'm back. -- The Druid
20 April 2007
All -- I've been...out of circulation for the last couple of months, and my lists
are not up to date. If you've announced a manager name, a new alliance, or changed
a manager name or alliance since the middle of February, let me know in the ads, via
diplo, or in an e-mail (Sue (at) solberg-mathews (dot) com). For that matter, if
you just want to make sure I've got things right, you can always do the same. -- The
Saint, keeper of lists
