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. Say good-bye
to EQUESTORS, as they are pushed from the coveted top team spot by the CROC FILES
stable. Hey everybody, watch out for HYDROPONICUS, who flew up 26 points in the
rankings after mashing MARIUS like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. Well,
everybody's pal DOMITIAN moved his record to 13-8-1 by defeating KOJIRO in the
Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 12 recognition points. Advice to bashers--never
force anything, just get a bigger halberd!
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the LAPUR arena. Here's a
song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad EQUESTORS? Big bad EQUESTORS. Big bad
EQUESTORS. LAPUR's afraid of the big bad EQUESTORS. Tra la la la la! And you guys
like to boo me? Well, unsling your rasberries, cause ANGRY ANIMALS beats feet every
time EQUESTORS smiles at them. Try farming, eh? Well just about everybody wants a
piece of BLACK TIGER, who was this week's most challenged warrior. In a touching
display by a 'touched' warrior, WENDY went after STONETOOTH, who was higher by 20
points. Well, when the dust settled, WENDY bested STONETOOTH.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Here's some advice: warriors with little
wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in LAPUR have no
sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. 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

Cardow Hunters -- Thanks. Though I'm wondering if you're just glad that I'm gone....
--Cassie
Lapur -- 12-9-8-17-17-4-17; Can't Take (or carry) a lot; Normal Endurance, Good
Damage. Master Ini/Def, Adv Ex Atk, Expert Rip. Short Spear, VH/VH Learn Defense, No
tactic. It's been fun trying to eat you all, especially the Cardow Hunters. --Cassie
Black Tiger -- <groaning> Let's try that again.... --Charlie
Charlie -- You didn't need more strength, wretched reptile, since your sole purpose
in life is to provide the material for lizard-skin boots. -- Black Tiger, reckless in
victory
Fighting Cock -- Well, listen, tell your manager that it's WRONG to make angry
golems. It's DANGEROUS. Who knows what it might lead to? -- Stonetooth
Marius -- (bows) Well done, sir. -- Quick Stinger
Stubborn Ass -- Oh... I thought you were a manager, and it's strongly impressed on us
not to hit managers. (sigh) I didn't realize your true nature until it was too late
to recover the lost initiative, or whatever the proper phrase is. -- Walks Softly and
limps a lot
Molly -- Here a croc, there a croc, everywhere are crocs, and if you think I'm
getting anywhere near a bathtub, you can think again! -- Mad Dog

Amendment for "Fratsfas Quest for the Best!"
Managers that have teams already established in Fratsfa need not have (3) three
warriors in the initiates. FE will NOT be a factor. Stables may be entered at any
time. Just announce your stable in the p-ads.
***************************************************************************
This in my invitation to all managers who wish to prove their mettle against
managers from all over Alastari. We have limited TP's in this contest to one a team
at a time. We DO NOT want this contest to become a scum fest as many others have,
hence the Andorian arena. Good luck to all who come to prove their skills. "May
your enemies' blood flow freely" -- Dark Knight Toker, Desolate Empire Alliance

I am in the process of moving house, and spotlight writing for the next two months
will be very hit-and-miss. -- the Scribe
