So glad to finally get to sit on the throne.  Now if everyone would just cooperate and 
let Axle have a turn here, boss would really be happy.   But we all know that's not 
going to happen!

                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  2111 BOURBON ST had cause to celebrate, after 
MICHTER got 14 points by beating MARY CHRISMESS.  MARY CHRISMESS certainly had a 
baffled expression on hers face, after losing to MICHTER and losing 10 points in the 
process!  Duelmaster CAL LIPPER from OTTO'S MECHANICS is going for the gold, as he 
challenged BIG LAKE PURE's ROSE PURITY.  Ooh, the excitement!  CAL LIPPER 
successfully staved off a grab for the roses by ROSE PURITY of BIG LAKE PURE.  Does 
MORYA have no one talented enough to dethrone him?  Word has it one team in MORYA is 
using psychics to predict wins.  They lead a charmed life!   
     And how sociable are MORYA's warriors?  Come, let us see.  Like the noble eagle 
soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of BIG LAKE PURE, alone and 
unchallenged.  The warriors of BIG LAKE PURE found their efforts at combat frustrated 
as OTTO'S MECHANICS apparently had more important things to do than fight.  Everyone 
is famous for fifteen minutes, and DALE AUTRY is it right now.  Most challenged 
warrior.  Isn't DODGE BULLETS proud!  Willing to win at any cost is BAWNER THE PURE, 
who challenged BORNUNDERADARKSTAR, 12 points junior.  Our sympathies, 
BORNUNDERADARKSTAR!  I thought BAWNER THE PURE showed great skill and promise when he 
overcame BORNUNDERADARKSTAR.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  Ask not a spymaster for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have 
fallen into an unconscious stupor.   
     Do not think spyreporting in MORYA is the highlight of my life.  As if buffeted 
by forces of nature beyond my control, I must take my leave of this place.  Do not 
despair!  I shall return!-- Novgorodny Vir

Rose Purity -- Come on, you surely have something measurable in reserve after the 
first minute -- Cal Lipper

Mary Chrismess -- Small arena, I guess your team has earned a standing avoid. -- Gus 
Tank

Replacement Knee -- Normally that means you lose a step or two, not the other way 
around -- Manny Fold

Reality Stimulation -- Well, that was interesting to say the least. Super-high 
percentage of off-hand weapon attacks, quitting after accidentally punching the locker 
door 4 times. -- Axle Foley

I don't know if these'll get in, I'm writing them late.  But I enjoyed taking 
yesterday off. -- Jorja, Dodge Bullets

Bawner the Pure -- How did you get the big lake so pure?  Strict anti-pollution 
controls, I suppose.  Oh, well, good on you for that. They told me the arena was no 
place for little boys, but I was sure they were wrong. -- ghost of Little Boy

I sang to the concubine, and that was all it took. -- Dale Autry

Michter -- Anyone but an orc would know not to drink before a fight. *I* didn't know, 
and I figured I'd need it. -- Sturdevant

Scar -- My thanks for the win and the skills. -- Born Under a Dark Star, but not too 
dark

Hair Mess -- At least it isn't in the sink.  That'd be a problem for BB Bathroom, 
right? -- Weep No More

I'm not going to send in the replacement this time, they always get lost if they 
report during a tourney. -- Jorja
P.S.  But he's par for what I've been getting lately.
