SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for ILLIS. Uncool, ISLANDERS. I mean 0-3-0
is bad. Will they will be allowed to fight? I say use 'em for training practice!
The guys at FAR TRAVELERS like really pulled together to get a 1-0-0 this turn,
moving up by 5. MVP award for I CAN QUIT? BASHAHOLICS ANON's proud of him after
beating ZAK STORM and getting 27 points. Talk about yer big time losers! ZAK STORM
got smashed by I CAN QUIT, and lost 23 points! What a putz! 12 STONES fights so
hard to be Duelmaster, then quits fighting and loses the title. No one said it was a
genius... And I was just getting used to the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh
well, welcome TOM BLIGH. Aren't ISLANDERS proud. (Oh, my.) I hear the top team
insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They want photogenic fighters for
PR photos.
So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway? It can't be for these
really neat Spyreports can it? ISLE OF SKYE was ILLIS' most avoided team. Is there
some award for that? I don't know what BASHAHOLICS ANON's been doing. They
certainly haven't been accepting many fights from ISLE OF SKYE, that's fer sher. Can
ISLANDERS' TOM BLIGH be more popular than me? He was challenged the most, but is
that really the same? I'm not so sure D'ARTAGNAN knew all the facts when he
challenged TOM BLIGH of ISLANDERS. I saw D'ARTAGNAN stumbling and dribbling at The
Swinging Aardvark last week... D'ARTAGNAN was so studly out there in the sands!
Beating TOM BLIGH and getting 21 points. ISLE OF SKYE must be proud, for sure!
Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds. All ILLIS ever talks about is fighting! Me,
I'm more laid back. 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 gotta leave. ILLIS is like such a dump, and you guys smell
too much! I had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte
