SPY REPORT
So why do I have this bag over my head? 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. PHILANTHROPISTS now holds the crown and they are betting they can
keep it. Hey everybody, watch out for PATRICE, who flew up 10 points in the rankings
after mashing M. CHARDINEE like a melon. Keep your eye on this gal. Ya know, some
days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. LUNK HEAD was defeated by MORDANT
DESERTER and drops 9 points. Well here's a duelmaster that doesn't sit back and say
'Challenge me'! ALE'CHAI TALLSKY made a challenge against TOURNEY SCUM this week.
Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was BUSY, BUSYTOWN's
TOURNEY SCUM, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by ALE'CHAI TALLSKY. 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. Did you hear that LOST CAUSE was most
avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of LOST CAUSE's warriors,
I'm not surprised! For those of you who like math, try this one: LOST CAUSE +
Weapons That go Boom = PHILANTHROPISTS + Avoid City. Well dang howdy, but if
challenges were votes, PANE would be president. Although it may be a contest he
doesn't want to win.
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! Remember: alliances are great,
but try and take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.
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. Hasta la
bye-bye. (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster

31 May 2008
Any and all who live in the 805 area, I would like for you to call me so we can get
together for BBQ's, softball games, and so on. It has been a while since the last
get together (several years). It was a blast and I am sure the next one will be
also. We just have to do it. All alliances are welcome. Just because my warriors
leave your warrior beaten and bloody in defeat does not mean we can't have a beer or
five together. I'll even buy the first round. So call 805-588-3419 and ask for Dave
a.k.a. Misfit, former member of the Green and Purple Polka Dot Alliance (GAPPDA).
