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!. Hey everybody, watch out for STRYKER, who flew
up 19 points in the rankings after mashing NEUMA like a melon. Keep your eye on this
gal. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. NEUMA was beat by
STRYKER and drops 73 points. Our battling duelmaster YAIWE has managed to hold the
title, fending off FENDER GRALE's none too subtle advances. Better luck next time,
MIDDLE WAY 6. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd!
Here is other news that is of note. Well just about everybody wants a piece of
GERRICK GRIMM, who was this week's most challenged warrior.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Knowing when to use the right tactics at
the proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.
Well, there's the manager of the SNOWBOUND 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
Yaiwe -- Why am I not surprised at the outcome of this fight? Good work on your
part. -- Fender Grale
P.S. I'd be glad to offer you a challenge, but my manager is totally lazy.
Personals, yes, they can be done at the last minute. But a challenge? Not much
chance, I'm afraid.
Gerrick Grimm -- Not much of a teacher, are you? -- Cass Dolan
Tanque -- Oh, great. What a fine beginning to the new year! -- disgruntled Ghost of
Jennis Klure
Now is the time for you all to be very, very afraid for the warriors of Horror Show
stable have arrived! -- Warriors of the Horror Show Gladiatorial Stable
30 December 2005
Just a reminder to all you online type people. It is much appreciated if you send
your personals in PLAIN TEXT, rather than HTML or formatted text. HAL, in his
infinite wisdom, doesn't DO formatting, which means having to unsnarl your personal
ads from bunches of extraneous...stuff. So, if your e-mailer has a plain text
option, let it be your friend. -- Ed.
P.S. Sometimes it's the formatted text which makes ads go astray. Not often, but
sometimes.
