                             Notes from the arena champ.

     Ok. Ok. I want out of here, too. You all can want me gone, but I want to be gone 
more. And why not? Why is The Commission discriminating against me? 16 DM Titles isn't 
enough? 74 Political Points isn't enough? 31 wins isn't enough? Some Commission flunky 
said it was because I was not skilled enough. Oh, yeah? Then why do I have 31 wins and 
16 DM Titles? Huh? 
     Besides, I AM skilled. I have trained 13 stats and gotten 31 skills from the stat 
trains. Plus, I have trained 13 other skills. Isn't it rather unfair and down right 
unethical to discriminate against me for starting at -1 skill base? Ya think! See! 
And, I am learning skills at a very hot 1.08 skill learn rate. So, what gives?
     I deserve more.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out AMEN-TEI to see 
what's new.  Too bad, EXCLAMATION!, but WAYFARERS was just too good to be stopped.  
Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think NOT A CHANCE should let 
FAMILY TAXI be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it.  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?  WAYFARERS was the most avoided team.  Is a 
1037-1145-22 record really that scary?  Is there some deep dark secret why 
EXCLAMATION!'s been avoiding WAYFARERS so much?  Or is it just that they're too 
scared?  Like, is AARGH popular, or what?  It was challenged the most in all of 
AMEN-TEI!  It's got a 9-3-0, is that good?  People were asking me did SHHH REALLY 
challenge AARGH?  (all right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded good!) It wasn't a 
spectacular fight, or anything, but AARGH wants me to write about it since it was 
defeated by SHHH.  Satisfied?   
     What does a fighter fight for?  I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone 
gets killed.  Not after four more fights.  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.  AMEN-TEI is like such a dump, and you guys 
smell too much!  Its been really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
