Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and I'm going to give you a spy report!. We now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. THE WARLOCKS now holds the crown and they are betting they can keep it. For every winner there is a loser. Speaking of losers, lets take a look at LENPROS, who went down to 7th from 11th. Life is tough. Coming up with a solid 3-2-0 outing, THE BRIGADE has advanced 3 places in the rankings. It looks like the guys(?) at GAMEHENDGE had a good week as they went 4-0-0 to put them in 2nd place. I guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for UNSCATHED, who flew up 24 points in the rankings after mashing BIG MAC like a melon. Keep your eye on this beast. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. GISSANNIAH was bested by JET'E and drops 30 points. The most challenged warrior this week was TELA. If this keeps up, our Duelmaster's going to need more avoids! ADMIRAL ISO got through to the Duelmaster this turn. No doubt he was more than anxious to kick TELA's tail out of the throne! Our battling duelmaster TELA has managed to hold the title, fending off ADMIRAL ISO's none too subtle advances. Better luck next time, LENPROS. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd! Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the IAYE arena. Did you hear that GAMEHENDGE was most avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of GAMEHENDGE's warriors, I'm not surprised! Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch LENPROS' act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from GAMEHENDGE. Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the most interesting, though! Knowing when to use the right tactics at the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster. Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in IAYE have no sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. Well, there goes another Spy Report. Good luck in next week's fights. And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME FREEDA 4485 12 13 0 107 RED DOG GANG (356) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -SENATOR SEDALIA 4245 15 7 0 121 LENPROS (145) JET'E 2177 20 25 1 105 IRON THRONE (120) ADMIRAL ISO 4202 16 11 2 95 LENPROS (145) DR.

THE DEAD W L K TEAM NAME SLAIN BY TURN Revenge? PERSONAL ADS Admiral Iso -- Admirable! I like the way you lost that one. Definitely, but not too easily. -- Gissanniah Xoxoxo -- Not a golem, I won't! -- Biggfoots The River -- What, you're still here? Why don't you just keep on flowing to the Isle? -- Freeda Vithren -- You didn't have to throw your iron throne at me! That thing's heavy, and such sharp corners! -- Rishteke Monty -- I take it your name is short for "sucks up skills like they were going out of style"? -- Perrojo, who didn't realize he was that good a teacher Dr Rozenzweig -- Ha! Just try it! -- Gissanniah 7 June 2005 I am in the process of moving house, and spotlight writing for the next two months will be very hit-and-miss. -- the Scribe 27 June 2005 ATTENTION ALL YOU ALLIANCE-TYPE PEOPLE: For the purposes of tourney newsletter alliance listings (when I am able to do them), you may only be listed in ONE alliance. In other words, you have to choose! If you are a part of Englebert's Alliance and Englebert's Alliance is "part" of Ruthrauf's Alliance, I will list you EITHER as part of Englebert's Alliance OR as part of Ruthrauf's Alliance, NOT both. The default would be the top-level alliance, Ruthrauf's, in this example. If you'd rather be listed separately, let me know and I will do so, but that will be the only listing you get. -- The Saint, keeper of ever- more-complicated lists 29 Jun 2005 The Company of Brothers (TCB) welcomes two new members to our alliance...Liam the Goth and Buddy Lee. We have no doubt that they will prove to be assets to our alliance and the general dueling community. -- Baphomet, co-founder, T.C.B.
