                                      SPY REPORT

Welcome back, my sweets!  Good to see each of you back in the arena and ready for 
today's fights!  It is always such an exciting day in the arena when the gladiators 
are dressed and ready to fight!  Ah, an awe-inspiring sight to see these brave men and 
women put themselves in mortal danger for our entertainment!  Of course, we know it is 
not all for entertainment, but also for the protection of Alastari!  May we never 
forget the important role these "games" and gladiators play in guarding us from the 
forces of chaos!

Looking quite comfortable on the throne, Scarred had his first opportunity to defend 
his title today.  Having lost his teammate, Gravel, gave him the perfect challenge 
against Bloodmoon from Phantom Regiment.  There is a significant experience gap, but 
all is fair in the revenge game, and Scarred set about letting Bloodmoon know that 
killing his friends is a no-no!  It only took 1 minute for Scarred to defend his title 
and remain Duelmaster in Seam!  Congrats to Scarred of Oakleaf, who is managed by 
Ganolus.

Pixelbenders is the most avoided team for the second turn in a row. For variety 
though, we have a different team avoiding them the most today.  Box in the Attic was 
running away from the Pixelbenders stable with all haste.  The most challenged warrior 
is once again Sir Read-a-Lot.  One has to admire Huckle Cat's patience with the 
warrior after so many losses and the constant barrage of challenges!  John Johnson 
challenged to fight Mr Read-a-Lot and won in a 1-minute bout!

Darque Knights take over the top team spot with a kill.  Record-wise, we have a three-
way tie at 11-4 between Darque Knights, Oakleaf, and 80s Fantasy.  To think, the only 
thing standing between all those teams was a frail, polite beggar!  For shame, Darque 
Knights!  How could you kill a beggar, and a polite one at that!?!?  Big Lake Names 
comes in at number 4, and Huckle's Cats finish out our top 5.  Lost Sentinels 8 spot 
plummet from 2nd to 10th is the turn's biggest loss, while Darque Knights climbed 4 
places for the largest gain.

Time for me to go, my darlings!  Do enjoy this wonderful arena day! Visit the various 
vendors, try the wonderful food, and even stop by the press booth to see me if you 
have time.  I'm sure we can find something to talk about over drinks!  I hope to see 
all of you next time!
