SPY REPORT
Oh, hi. Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte. Thought I'd check out MURSKA to see
what's new. Like, SOUND had to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by
CHILDREN OF LLYR! Way to go CHILDREN OF LLYR! MVP award for MAYNARD? NERDS' proud
of him after beating DEIRDRIE and getting 17 points. Talk about yer major upsets!
DEIRDRIE's match with MAYNARD cost her a loss of 13 points! Don't you think the
Duelmaster is being unfair? I think GRINCH should let PRIVATEER be Duelmaster for a
while, without fighting about it. Who was the wiseguy that said MURSKA's Duelmaster
was paying for drinks at The Howling Wolf? Don't look at me!
I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just
wing this stuff. The warriors of SEA DOGS must be getting lonely. They were the
most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? Is there some deep dark
secret why SOUND's been avoiding SEA DOGS so much? Or is it just that they're too
scared? Like, is FINN MAC KARMEK popular, or what? He was challenged the most in
all of MURSKA! He's got a 5-2-0, is that good?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. Hey you guys, don't you think your
families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.)
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. MURSKA is like such a dump, and you guys smell
too much! I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Grinch (DMIV) -- Thanks for the kind words, you're not such a Bad Guy.
Congratuations on your being Duelmaster and invited to AD! If you happen to bump
into Coach Rah Rah on your journey, let him know that he is an inspiration. I owe a
lot to his great articles in the DM-93 Newsletters. Between him and Jorja, I've
rapidly regained my feet on the sands. Grinch, my only advice to you is to be a
"life-long learner" (like "Coach"), and don't eat too much roast-beast with the Who's
of Whoville. -- Trim, Mgr of Sound
"Persistent Begger who entered the arena floor, unfortunate for you... no armor you
wore. If only your funds were not a simple few, then you would still be alive rather
than resting below the dew." -- Epitaph sung by HUM
Blowfish -- Gratz on getting the award for "This Weeks Favorite" even after loosing!
(How's that work?) Very close and exciting fight! -- Mel
Finn mac Karmek -- A dinner invite ** blush **! You were kinda dashing in the arena
even though you lost to Whistle. I'm all for free food, it's a date! Maybe I'll
sing after desert so you'll know why Melody if my full name. -- Mel
Savage Beating -- Come back when you want another. -- Privateer
Mel -- Phbbbt! -- Blowfish
Trim -- But why would Mel want to puch a round house? Or a square one. -- Finn mac
Karmek
Our congratulations to Grinch. -- Jorja and the Children of Llyr
Grinch -- Well, you got your druthers in that challenge. And I'm getting mine that
you're leaving! -- Madon ap Llew
Whistle -- I was... savage? I guess it's because loud, shrill sounds make me really
tense. -- Finn mac Karmek
I think the Fratsfa Slave should BE a Fratsfan. It would be more proper. -- Deirdrie
P.S. And more fun to hit him.
Selene -- Ah, tourney coming up.... -- Jock macBeagh
Timbre -- Are you sure you're cut out for this life? -- Sean ap Kormak
