SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. SUNSET needs a spyreport." Oh, well. I don't wanna hurt
anybody's feelings or anything, but 420 B.C. really goofed with their 0-0-0. The
guys at NOMADIC TRIBE like really pulled together to get a 5-0-0 this turn, moving up
by 9. One team deserves special mention 'cause they moved up 0 after going 5-0-0.
Keep it up, DARK AT HEART! MVP award for BATWAMBA? NOMADIC TRIBE's proud of him
after beating MINAMI TORI and getting 21 points. Talk about yer major upsets!
CRIXUS' match with BOORAY cost him a loss of 15 points! The Duelmaster isn't going
to stop just cause he's Number One! WILD knows this. He was challenged by the
Duelmaster. Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think TOO BIG TO FAIL
should let WILD be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. I hear the top
team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters
for PR photos.
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff. The warriors of GRIM FANDANGO must be getting lonely. They were
the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? Hhmph! What kind
of warriors are NOMADIC TRIBE? GRIM FANDANGO, an easy team to beat if I ever saw
one, can't get them to accept an invitation! Like, is ELISE ISLA popular, or what?
She was challenged the most in all of SUNSET! She's got a 9-16-0, is that good?
People were asking me did YUEDEBAHL LITHA REALLY challenge FRITERSATAFATFARM? (all
right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded good!) It wasn't a spectacular fight, or
anything, but FRITERSATAFATFARM wants me to write about it since he was bested by
YUEDEBAHL LITHA. Satisfied?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. Hey, warriors get killed by other
warriors, not by their manager sending them to the Dark Arena. What's wrong with
LORD NOTSONICE's 5-1-1, RAGING LORDS? BLAKSKUL really fought hard against BLOODSONG.
That'll teach GOLGOTHA'S BLOOMS not to go and kill any of GRIM FANDANGO's guys again,
huh! Fight, fight, fight. Is that all you guys can do?
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. SUNSET is like such a dump, and you guys smell
too much! I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
All -- Guess who's back?!?!? -- The Cajun
Good! Ah... which team, please? For the List, you know. I'm guessing The
Blues?
Another dozen Aimers ran last turn! That makes four turns in a row! Far more than
any other style. Do any of you deaf, dumb, and blind kids find that fascinating?
The Primus Godling Fixation made manifest?
Stik -- I could make the case that the "rut" you're in is due mostly to unfounded
arrogance. If you have any presumption that you're somehow better than anyone else,
then your vision extends no further than the end of your lengthy nose. -- Kano
Furthermore, really hate to see you dump roll-ups on the DA without making an attempt
at running them. Sometimes those wierd ones will surprise you. Been there, done
that.
Stik -- You stayed on top of the 100 wins better than I did! Thanks much. Next I've
got to close the gap with the loss column... -- Bill the Bard
Ice, Sasquatch -- Congrats Lord Protectors! -- The Red Blades
Time -- You silly goose! As everyone knows... -- Hope Springs eternal
Ice -- Yes, absolutely I'm avoiding you this turn. -- Hope
Darkness -- Nice fight again. Maybe we'll get the rubber match before one of us
leaves. -- Ophelia
Blakskul -- You should have made that "Rokskul." -- Yuedebahl
A blak rok, surely.
Machide Shou -- I had a bad feeling about that one when I saw the matchup. You had
several nice attacks with it, but I'm surprised at your weapon choice. -- Bruno
Ben & Jerry's, Blood and Sand, The Blues -- Welcome to Sunset! -- Bill the Bard and
The Red Blades
Yuedebahl -- I do so enjoy it when it's MY turn to swing....(evil grin)... --
Blakskul
Kallia May -- The least you could've done was teach better. A whooole helluavalot
better! -- Like Water
Plague -- Can't say I minded that matchup. I can give you some pointers on how to
hold that weapon if you like. -- Helrazor
Our congrats to Ice and Sasquatch for making it out alive! Sasquatch we'll have to
find another new bouncer at the double B but you've earned it! -- Grim Fandango
Hurray, runnable recruits!! -- Stik
Action and Golgatha's -- Nice three turn, my friend. Sorry no BFs last turn, don't
know what happened there. We will try to correct the situation this cycle. -- Stik
and G.F.
Spring tourney will soon be upon us, let's hope at least one of us can do Sunset
proud and bring home some hardware, it's been a bit of a draught lately... -- Stik
Congratulations to those teams recently joing the ranks of the 100 winners -- the Red
Blades and Ominous Reign. -- Nomad and the Tribe
Too Big for Me to Beat -- Well, I had a chance to swing. That counts for something,
right? Not much, but something. -- Bul
Welcome to the Blues and all other recent arrivals! -- Nomad and the Tribe
Chesterton -- I guess I do like your writing! It was truly an amazing plot --
culminating in my becoming a Lord Protector! The back-woods were nice, but I shall
now only have to return for an occaisonal family visit! No more messing with
Sasquatch!
Silver Haze -- I do believe you got lucky. I'm sure of it. I should have won that
fight. It was a good cahllenge. Right up to the point where I lost. Then it wasn't
such a good challenge. -- Walli
Ninja Barbie -- Yeah, the ninja thing just doesn't do it for me. Or for you, it
seems. -- Hroloc
The Foiler -- We have got to stop giving you easy wins. Honestly, that wasn't the
plan. Apparently they were stupid challenges, but not that stupid. We didn't mean
to lose. It just happened. Time for a new and improved plan. -- Batwamba
Stik -- Yeah, wins have been hard to come by lately. I could send the whole squad to
the DA, but last time I did that most of them came back and I ended up figthing them
for another year anyway. But with Graven Ward dead and Sasquatch graduating, Bul is
the last of the veterans with amazing records hanging out here. Time to make a nice
little offering to the RUGS! -- Nomad
No, make us a nice BIG offering. -- RUG #56762
Too Big To Fail -- At 16-3 I believe you were named correctly, congrats on the throne
and if you retain the throne I would be surprised not to see you get your bid. --
Gentleben
Action and Golgatha's Blooms -- Very nice 3-Turn, buddy. -- Gentleben and Ben's
Bazaar
Spigot -- Hrmph! I was hoping your record was luck, guess not. -- Yodles
Kipling -- Caught ya looking at the speedos, they say one sizes fits all, but for you
I may not chance it. -- Speedo Smurf
Batwamba -- That's what I have been trying to do this whole time, thanks for the ego
boost. -- The Foiler
Level of Malevolence -- I don't remember that level from any of the games Ben plays,
which one is it? -- Barbaric Smurf
Hroloc The Hun -- Listen up, I don't call anyone "Hun", it is either "Honey" or
"Babe." -- Ninja Barbie
Archelf -- No but Smurfbane maybe now. -- Gentleben
Hail, warriors of Sunset -- Last turn was a transitional turn for Blood and Sand. I,
Deep Thought, have hired Batiatus to manage and house my team in this glorious arena.
He owes me a pile of coin and will work it off by leading this stable of fighters to
victory. -- Deep Thought
Sunset -- I, Batiatus, had to take this ragtag group of slaves to my ludus last turn
to receive some proper training in hopes that they may survive at least a fight or
two. They are back now with a new fire in their veins and hearts craving glory on
the sands. -- Batiatus, Dominus of Blood and Sand
Minami Tori -- Spartacus is not my real name, but the one given to me by my Dominus.
Your original name was not able to protect you from the cut of my blade, now was it.
-- Spartacus
The Hunter -- I thank you for dispatching that treacherous gimp Ashur. Be careful
how you treat his replacement, Pietros, Barca is very protective of him. -- Batiatus
Sam Byck -- Bacteria? What are you, one of those superheroes with microscope eyes?
I'm sure there are beauties among the bacteria, but who can see 'em? -- Trelaine
Wild -- Ah. That explains a lot. Bad ph, the garden dies. You either need gypsum
or sawdust. -- Jonisson the ever-helpful
We congratulate Ice and Sasquatch. -- Jorja and the Sword Opera cast
Whirled Peace -- I take that loss to mean that the milkshake was SOOO good that I
just dived in and lost all track of anything but the flavor. -- Trelaine
P.S. But it's disturbing that you're a golem.
Borges -- Wow, do they teach you that kind of hypocrisy in Literate class? I mean,
"You are a fine opponent," as applied to me? Get real! -- Jonisson
P.S. Now, if you were a ballerina needed to be hoisted into the air while singing,
that would be another matter.
Dred -- Well, you know what they say, the first and most dangerous foe is fear and
dread. I was working on that when they called our fight and just... whoosh! -- Elise
Isla
Like Water -- How can something be LIKE water? Either it is, or it is not. -- Kallia
May
P.S. But the skills were good, for which I thank you. Well, for the win, also.
Knuckles -- If you didn't drag them on the ground, you wouldn't have to stop and pick
the sand out from under your fingernails. -- Bitter Dove
P.S. Jorja says to ask your manager whether he is familiar with the City of the
Sharp-Nosed Fish. Don't ask ME what that means, I'm just a messenger.
