SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. STORMCROWE needs a spyreport." Oh, well. Too bad, A DEAL'S
A DEAL, but NORTHERN LIGHTS was just too good to be stopped. NORTHERN LIGHTS like
really fought hard to move up to 1st from 4th. Way to go! One team deserves special
mention 'cause they moved up 1 after going 4-1-1. Keep it up, THE LION'S DEN! I
just can't say enough good things about THE LION'S DEN. They went 4-1-1 their first
time, don't slouch, and they've got good oral hygiene! MVP award for THE JANITOR?
AVID FANS' proud of him after beating BERTHA and getting 34 points. Talk about yer
big time losers! AN ARENA DOCTOR got smashed by PUMA, and lost 15 points! ZOEY
thinks hers 13-8-1 and studly character is good enough to face up to the Duelmaster.
Any bets? This Duelmaster is like something else! HOT LIPS stopped ZOEY dead in
hers tracks! Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his teammates? Don't ask
me!
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. The warriors
of DARQUE FORCES 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 ROAD WARRIORS'
been avoiding DARQUE FORCES so much? Or is it just that they're too scared? Can
DARQUE FORCES' RAGGEDY ANN be more popular than me? She was challenged the most, but
is that really the same?
What does a fighter fight for? I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone
gets killed. Not after four more fights. THE JANITOR of AVID FANS wasn't planning
on killing BERTHA, I bet. Now he has to worry about being Bloodfeuded, and getting
put on lists... I was SO depressed when I heard REE FLECTOR got killed. He was just
a kid, and didn't get a fair chance in STORMCROWE, or anything! That was so totally
rude when A TALENT SCOUT wasted REE FLECTOR. I think all you warriors in STORMCROWE
should gang up on AVID FANS! 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 know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really
should stop. I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

PERSONAL ADS
Icelina -- Men! <snort> ...welllll, men?!? ...Icelina? Ho Icelina??? ...where'd
you go? -- Aunty Macassar
Winston -- Oh beat the drum slowly...not me you goof-ball, I'm not the drum...I just
get beat. Or is that beaten. -- Moldy Mort
The Bride -- As if I hadn't been picked on enough, is that ironic or what? Bet-cha
the schedule makers were licking their chops when that particular match-up was
proposed. -- Hen-Pecked Harry
P.S. There's no breaking me in, I'm broke in.
BF Goodrich -- And the band (and I) slog on. -- Aunty Macassar
All -- I hate ze Dwarf. And Khalhum's a beeg nosed joker too you bet. -- Bertha
Hot Lips -- Now I know what toothpaste feels like when it's squoozed from the tube.
Sand to chin time means Plan B time. -- Zoey
Greetings, Stormcrowe. City is a bit empty, the arena stands are half-full, and
you've a sandbagger named, "Hot Lips" on the throne. Only four active teams,
including the lovely Orc-Mistress herself. Surprisingly though--the personals were
relatively active. I think I might like it here. -- Lynx
Henpecked Harry and Moldy Mort -- Ok folks--since you guys are going to be dance
partners, we're going to have to talk about self-confidence and hygiene. -- The
Lion's Den crew
Applejacks, Darques, and Barnabases...oh my!
Raggedy Ann -- You're certainly a darque force. You chilled me to the marrow of my
bones. -- Frostflare
P.S. Not that chilling me does any good. I'm cold-blooded by nature.
Ree Flector -- (hands over his beady little eyes) That blinded me! -- Walrus
Lulu -- You are one. -- Frostbite
I told people and TOLD people that the Dangerous Criminal shouldn't be let loose!
But did anyone listen? No, of course not, because I was just a timorous woman,
easily frightened by shadows. Bah. -- Ghost of Icelinia

We of the Desolate Empire Alliance want to welcome two managers to our fold. Kon of
the Empire Rising, and Osiris! May they be blessed with the blood of their enemies,
and give no quarter in War! -- Dark Knights of the Desolate Empire
11 April 2006
To all those lookin' for some easy pickins: I, Elfwine, manager of The Shallowship,
the most feared team in all of Jhelum, invite all who seek wide open spaces for pubs
and other such establishments of limited debauchery, to visit this deserted city and
help me clear up some of the dust. I'm just about ready to have my guys face off
against each other to get some new action. Guess I'd better join a tournament or
something...hmmmm, there's a thought.
