SPY REPORT
So why do I have this bag over my head? Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and
I'm going to give you a spy report!. Coming up with a solid 0-0-0 outing, BABA BABA
has advanced 4 places in the rankings. MAUL RATS is no joke as it posted a 3-0-0
week advancing from 4th place to 2nd place. Hey everybody, watch out for CLUMSY
BARBER, who flew up 19 points in the rankings after mashing CHEST PAIN like a melon.
Keep your eye on this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the
sands. CHEST PAIN was defeated by CLUMSY BARBER and drops 16 points. Well,
everybody's pal MAULARIA moved its record to 8-1-0 by defeating NARCOLEPTIC GUARD in
the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 11 recognition points. 4 out of 5 gladiators
surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming at that location.
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the THE STOMPING GROUNDS
arena. Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad CLUB CLUB? Big bad CLUB
CLUB. Big bad CLUB CLUB. THE STOMPING GROUNDS' afraid of the big bad CLUB CLUB.
Tra la la la la! And you guys like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause
MAUL RATS beats feet every time CLUB CLUB smiles at them. Try farming, eh?
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Here's some advice: warriors with little wit and will may
encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, there's the manager of the THE STOMPING GROUNDS giving me the 'cut' sign
(or is that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Okay, so I may not be the
world's best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. Its been
fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you worked up for Snide
Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster

"The period known as the Middle Ages, says the learned Benjamin Guerard, is the
produce of Pagan civilisation, of Germanic barbarism, and of Christianity. It began
in 476, on the fall of Agustulus, and ended in 1453, at the taking of Constantinople
by Mahomet II., and consequently the fall of two empires, that of the West and that
of the East, marks its duration. Its first act, which was due to the Germans, was
the destruction of political unity, and this was destined to be afterwards replaced
by religions unity." -- Paul Lacroix, from "Manners, Custom and Dress During the
Middle Ages and During the Renaissance Period"
And that's what you get for not writing ads. -- Ed.
