                                      SPY REPORT

     Thankyouthankyou.  It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in 
ROCANIS.  Hope you enjoy the show.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I already got paid!  Hey 
everybody, watch out for NAVY FEDERAL, who flew up 12 points in the rankings after 
mashing FLUKE HANSOM like a melon.  Keep your eye on this beast.  Ya know, some days 
it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  FLUKE HANSOM was subdued by NAVY FEDERAL 
and drops 7 points.  Unlike most arenas, HUSH managed to get his challenge off 
against the 17-20-2 GILBERT IRDAN.  Well, everybody's pal HUSH moved his record to 
12-1-0 by defeating GILBERT IRDAN in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 11 
recognition points.  An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps 
T.P.s at bay.   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the ROCANIS arena.  And hey, 
kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid KNIGHTS OF NI, please raise you hand.  Wow.  
Does ROCANIS really have that many liars?  For those of you who like math, try this 
one:  KNIGHTS OF NI + Weapons That go Boom = CREDIT + Avoid City.  Well dang howdy, 
but if challenges were votes, ISAM KORL would be president.  Although it may be a 
contest he doesn't want to win.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Here's some advice:  warriors with little 
wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     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

Hush, you did a reasonable job offering a DM Column indicative of your name. Kudos, I 
guess. But, a salute anyway. -- V. P. Finance

Whisper, perhaps, just perhaps, you should have been a little louder? -- Title Max 
(enjoying his collection)

Gilbert Irdan, what a battle! Sadly, you were dominant, and I hope you miss your 
dinner. -- Diner's Club
P.S. Top of whatever.

Pay me now or pay me more later. -- V. P. Finance

Hush -- Can't I even WHISPER? -- Houston Farmer

Diner's Club -- I don't care for a restaurant that comes after me with a club. -- 
Gilbert Irdan

Peace and -- Not what you hand out. -- Isam Korl

Animator -- Your attack did NOT animate me.  Rather the reverse. -- Ringer Simon

A standby is good.  I like a win, even if it's "easy." -- Fluke Hansom

Navy Federal -- A lot you know about it.  There's mages out there making it their 
business to sweep in anyone they can catch to fight in the arena.  I wasn't even 
"deserting," I was just going over to Jhans to visit my granny.  I would've come back, 
I live here, you know? -- Kondor, Trocaran accused of deserting

Fluke Hansom -- You didn't have to be MEAN about it.  Fighting--physical fighting, 
gods!  It is NOT my thing. -- Trigonar, Mage's Indignant Apprentice

Police Sergeant -- Hey!  That was uncalled for.  I have a license to carry that bow. 
-- Halrhuzoi, Rirorni Archer
