                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report.  Sit 
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis.  Advancing in 
the rankings was GOLDEN CANYON who went from last turn's 564-725-21, to this week's 
record of 568-726-21.  Hey everybody, watch out for MOLDRAUN, who flew up 22 points 
in the rankings after mashing GUARDIAN NAGA like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy. 
Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  GUARDIAN NAGA lost to 
MOLDRAUN and drops 21 points.  Unlike most arenas, ARTHUR BEYER managed to get his 
challenge off against the 21-21-1 CLEMMIE.  Going for the gusto and coming up with 
aught but bloody knuckles was GOLDEN CANYON's CLEMMIE, who was turned away from the 
Duelmastership by ARTHUR BEYER.  4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so 
try and avoid aiming at that location.   
     Here is other news that is of note.  Well dang howdy, but if challenges were 
votes, CLEMMIE would be president.  Although it may be a contest she doesn't want to 
win.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Carrion Bird Cinematic Humor:  SCARLET 
SKINK II:  THE REMATCH.  Here's some advice:  warriors with little wit and will may 
encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     I think I had better cut this one short.  It's been nice chatting to those of 
you whom I have not offended yet.  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks.  See ya 
next time I'm on this circuit!-- The Unknown Spymaster

Arthur Beyer -- To put it bluntly, you're too short.  I know, not your fault, and you
probably have a sterling character, but I just can't see myself going out with
someone nine inches shorter than I am. -- Clemmie

Speckled Gecko -- Hmm, someone had the fire too hot, there are specks of charcoal
here.  Or maybe just ash, but still...not tasty.  Oh, I know people sometimes
deliberately use charred seasonings, burned sesame seeds, for instance, but that
doesn't mean I have to like them or use them myself. -- Loris Key

Guardian Naga -- No, don't tell me, fried snake "tastes like chicken."  Well, I know
that rattlesnake does, more or less, which is just to say, "mild, almost tasteless,"
but...nah.  Don't care for it, myself. -- Pike

Soldier 3 -- If that's steak sauce, I think I'll take mine bare. -- Moldraun

9 July 2007
I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately.  If there
are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good.  So if you send me
a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I
have not gotten it (yet).  If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com.
If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos.  We are working on this
problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta
P.S.  If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
