SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
SOLVEN. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! We now
have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. KELLUMBO'S KIDS now holds the
crown and they are betting they can keep it. Hey everybody, watch out for SHUX, who
flew up 23 points in the rankings after mashing EDGILES KAPP like a melon. Keep your
eye on this gal. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. RED
STATE lost to PEWTER and drops 15 points. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit
back and say 'Challenge me'! HOT TUB JOHNNY made a challenge against BILBRAY this
week. It's a proud day for the THE REPUBLICANS stable, as their warrior, BILBRAY,
ascended the Duelmaster's throne. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get
a bigger halberd!
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
Here's a song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad THE REPUBLICANS? Big bad THE
REPUBLICANS. Big bad THE REPUBLICANS. SOLVEN's afraid of the big bad THE
REPUBLICANS. Tra la la la la! Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch WILD OATS' act
in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from THE REPUBLICANS.
And who is this KIDNERGUARDIAN you ask, with 57 points and a 12-9-1 record. Ooh, the
tales I could tell! Was it guts or an overtaxed mental capacity that had MASOCHIST
challenge up 29 points in the rankings to take on KIDNERGUARDIAN? This week
MASOCHIST 2-1-0 fought KIDNERGUARDIAN 12-9-1 and in losing gained 3 points. I know
several gladiators who could go for a few fights like that.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Remember: alliances are great, but try and
take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Well, there goes another Spy Report. Good luck in
next week's fights. See ya next time I'm on this circuit!-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Kellumbo -- Nice downchallenges last turn. Your Duelmaster gets beat badly in a fair
fight up challenge so you resort to two downchallenges of my guys, including one with
a 10 fe difference. Congratulations on continuing to bring dishonor to yourself and
this arena. -- Judge, mgr. the Republicans
Cadmus -- Welcome back! -- Judge, mgr. the Republicans
Kidnerguardian -- Keep trying, and you'll figure it out eventually. -- Chucker Istta
P.S. Must be tough, being so short.
M. Chardinee. Oh, well, into each life a few standbys must fall, and at least he
wasn't the Dangerous Criminal. -- Belissa Hough
Trump -- Yeahyeahyeah, I know, you like doing solos. I gotta tell you, those high
notes just go right through my head. Ouch. -- Edgiles Kapp
Nafisah -- I still think you're some kind of fish in your other life. -- Dolby Jossel
P.S. A mean kind.
Birdbrain -- Refusing to "give in" just demonstrated how accurately you were named,
hmm? -- Gallantins Morik
Josephine -- Me, too, but not in PUBLIC. I know a quiet spot behind the barn,
though...? -- Gallantins Morik
Jorja -- Our dear Maid of Orleans. Dead at nineteen and still able to fire the
imagination. ON a related note, remember when the French questioned our WMD
evidence and we got freedom fries? Any country with a chick-in-chain-mail national
hero is OK by me. The ripper? I vaguely remember her but still can't recall our
conversation. -- Cadmus
Callantins -- Take that you...oh, I lost. Never mind. -- Birdbrain
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
