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 CLAYBORN, who flew
up 21 points in the rankings after mashing PEARL like a melon. Keep your eye on this
guy. Going for the gusto and coming up with aught but bloody knuckles was ISLANDERS'
FISHHOOK, who was turned away from the Duelmastership by JUST ONE IS OK. Can you
believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff?
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid BASHAHOLICS ANON, please raise you
hand. Wow. Does ILLIS really have that many liars? For those of you who like math,
try this one: BASHAHOLICS ANON + Weapons That go Boom = NEXUS 5 + Avoid City. Well
just about everybody wants a piece of PEARL, who was this week's most challenged
warrior. In a touching display by a 'touched' warrior, KRYSMOPOMPAS went after
WITHDRAWAL, who was higher by 19 points. Well, when the dust settled, KRYSMOPOMPAS
beat WITHDRAWAL.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Ask not the elves for counsel, for they
will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh?
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian,
but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. See ya next time I'm on this
circuit!-- The Unknown Spymaster

HALLOWEEN TOURNAMENT UPDATE
It has come to our attention that a warrior, Voodoo Toad 85-14776, was sent to
the Dark Arena and slain in order to be classed as a Dead Challenger in this past
Halloween Tournament. As this warrior is a Zombie, this was against the rules because
immortal warriors may not challenge the Dark Arena. (An exception is granted so a
warrior may challenge the Dark Arena on his very last turn after receiving an
invitation to Advanced Duelmasters, so he can show his prowess with the Dark Arena
monsters, but this may not be used as a method of classing in the dead tournament if
he happens to die in the night fight.)
To correct this injustice, we changed the fight result for all warriors who
lost to Voodoo Toad to a win for that turn. This gave two warriors, Crazy 54 84-11494
of Crazy 88 15 and Sarokith 84-30929 of Dub O Dubs, an ending record of 8-3, which
grants them Tournament Victor status and resurrection.
We realize this is not a perfect solution but hope it will make some amends
for the warriors who lost to this misclassed warrior.
