SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
XOCHITHLAN. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid!
Say good-bye to THE MIDDLE WAY, as they are pushed from the coveted top team spot by
the CHEAP SHOTS stable. KIWI CONNECTION seems to have it's eye on the top team spot,
and if they continue having 3-0-1 weeks they may get it! Hey everybody, watch out
for WHAKAPAPA, who flew up 16 points in the rankings after mashing RIRORNI WOMAN like
a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was
XYOKOR YAHL, who dropped 9 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with
PONY. What does the Duelmaster and Piltdown Man have in common? They are both the
most challenged apes in human history! Heyheyhey! Our battling duelmaster SMIRK has
managed to hold the title, fending off DEELA ELLIS' none too subtle advances. Better
luck next time, THE MIDDLE WAY. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a
day keeps T.P.s at bay.
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
Did you hear that THE MIDDLE WAY was most avoided team this week? Well, knowing the
personal hygiene of THE MIDDLE WAY's warriors, I'm not surprised! For those of you
who like math, try this one: THE MIDDLE WAY + Weapons That go Boom = CHEAP SHOTS +
Avoid City.
Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the
most interesting, though! Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes
and no. Silly buggers, eh?
Well, there's the manager of the XOCHITHLAN giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some
tracks. And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos),
oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster

PERSONAL ADS
Opara Persi -- Glad you were there, but wish there were someone in this arena worthy
of a fight with me. -- Smirk
All -- Consider that personal ad to Opara as my Duelmaster Column, you jerks. --
Smirk
Nakor -- THAT was uncalled for, you dirty, rotten, no-count, Dog! -- Shrug
Rennor Simm -- There was nothing sneaky about that easy victory other than my name.
-- Sneak
Mori Neb -- Ignorance is bliss! -- Ignore
Opara -- Meteoric strike? You don't even know what a meteor is, and toy certainly
can't strike. And cock of the snook? Where do you get this silly gibberish? You
probably mean sock of the cook. -- Smirk
Opara -- One look at you leaves one quite pleased to be a neutered orc. -- Ignore
Smick -- Don't worry! I'll wipe it off your face. -- Nakor
Hey Pete -- There are no Gators in the shower. -- Pony
P.S. It wasn't your skills that beat me, it was your smell.
Xykor Yahol -- You need to teach something for me to learn. -- Talon
Sneak -- Gods, you're dispicable! -- Rennor Simm
Smirk -- Anything to get you out of here faster. -- Opara Persi
Ignore -- There was a fight? I didn't notice. -- Mori Neb
A Veteran Mercenary makes a pleasant change. -- Deela Ellis
Talon -- Bad match for you, but that's the way it goes. At least you didn't have to
duck the Cheap Shots. -- Xyokor Yahl
