                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report.  Sit 
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis.  Hey everybody, 
watch out for AARGH, who flew up 17 points in the rankings after mashing RUTHLESS 
JAYWALKER like a melon.  Keep your eye on this beast.  In front of all the crowds, 
VANNA WAYFARER took the Duelmaster's crown for hers own.  I give the bum two weeks.  
Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff?   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the AMEN-TEI arena.  Did you 
hear that WHY KNOT was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the personal 
hygiene of WHY KNOT's warriors, I'm not surprised!  For those of you who like math, 
try this one:  WHY KNOT + Weapons That go Boom = EXCLAMATION! + Avoid City.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Remember:  alliances are great, but try and 
take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.   
     Well, there's the manager of the AMEN-TEI giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  Okay, so I may not be the world's 
best comedian, but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors.  Hasta la bye-bye. 
(Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster
