                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, NIYTYOLE ISLAND?  Ain't you never seen Snide 
Clemens before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, XXX BANDITS, since 
CARESS OF STEEL took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  If this 
keeps up, MISFIT TOY MAKERS, you'll have to shine swords instead of use them.  A drop 
of 7 in the rankings?  FEAR OF THE DARK turned their 2-0-0 turn into a 6th place rank 
in the listings this turn.  Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists.  Gee, 
I'm impressed, a 3-1-1 is nice, but don't get cocky, ALASTARI AMIGOS!, the Fates 
teach humility, and the Fates are proud.  Of course, we're all terribly impressed to 
see ELF ON SHELF win a fight and gain 22 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, ALVAREZ beat 
REXXAR and REXXAR lost 17 points.  You're breakin' my heart.  And if variety is the 
spice of life, NIYTYOLE ISLAND may be getting bland, as SUN RISE stays top dog in the 
city.  I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to 
know what's new, don't you, NIYTYOLE ISLAND?   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.  What's 
the big D?  OLD HOBBITS was the most avoided team?  Bunch of lily livered... 
grumble... mumble... curse...  And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice?  
Let's see, well, whatcha know?  It was BRASH BROS XMAS.  Ha ha ha ha!  JA PET OH was 
challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.  Now was the DM insulted or 
feared?  Heh, heh.  I suspect either a 21 will or a 21 ego on this one, but BALI-RAJ 
has challenged up by 42 in an attempt against WALKURE.  My sides still hurt from 
laughing about WALKURE losing and giving BALI-RAJ 24 points of recognition.  Ha ha ha 
ha!!  I notice STEELY STANZA challenging down 17 points to fight MONTOYA, HEROIC 
VERSE doubtless has some rotten excuse for such an insult to honor.  This is the sort 
of thing that makes the price of admission to NIYTYOLE ISLAND's games worth it!  
STEELY STANZA lost to MONTOYA!!  I guess I can give a little credit to ROBBER of FEAR 
OF THE DARK for challenging up by 24 to GRANNY'S BOY.  ROBBER won to get 61 points of 
recognition.   
     Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and 
gone, and get to see if their team cared.  Ya gotta go sometime, and ADAHLIA's time 
was this time.  Hmmm, not a bad fighter, had she lived... (what?  me pity?).  And now 
a passing thought on a warrior dying young (WHATCHU TRYIN of JOHNNY TAKES):  You had 
your chance and now you're dead.  Oh well...  Let's see, 11-5-2.  Pretty good record 
for a living warrior.  A sad one though, for a dead one.  Such is the case for 
BUTCHER of FORCE OF FIVE.  Tsk.  I can't say as I'm proud to find out that NYE 
MAULERS' SMITHERZ has killed ADAHLIA from EMU'S BROOD.  I can say I wish EMU'S BROOD 
good luck in their bloodfeud.  A big yahoo goes out to SMITHERZ this turn, for 
revenging NYE MAULERS' bloodfeud against EMU'S BROOD's warrior ADAHLIA.  Heh, heh, 
heh.  Not that I'll be buying the drinks, but I'll be glad to see MURGATROYD and THE 
ILLEARTH at Loucas Lounge tonight celebrating their bloodfeud victory over MISSES 
ANDY CAWS.  Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing 
these kinds of weapons?   
     What does the NIYTYOLE ISLAND arena have in common with the inns?  It's just as 
comfortable to sleep in either place.  Ha ha ha ha!  Phlllt!  Just had to do that 
before I leave the fine city of NIYTYOLE ISLAND.  I feel much better now.  Paste this 
one in your scrapbooks, you'll need the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens
