SPY REPORT Well, what are you looking at, DAL SHANG? Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens before? Ah, shaddup and listen to my news. Later days, SERPENTS HOLD, since SAND DANCERS took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news. Now let's all watch CASTAWAYS' heads swell from their 3-1-0 this turn. Haa ha ha ha! Big shots, big talk, big deal. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see SSSKAH win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, HARITH TEN MORU beat MAMBA and MAMBA lost 13 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, DAL SHANG may be getting bland, as ABRA CADAVER stays top dog in the city. I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this? You want to know what's new, don't you, DAL SHANG? He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. DAL SHANG, I am losing what little hope I had in you. SAND DANCERS the most avoided team? What insult will suffice, I cannot say. And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see, well, whatcha know? It was SERPENTS HOLD. Ha ha ha ha! TOES was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh, heh. I guess I can give a little credit to THOR of ROGUE WARRIORS for challenging up by 23 to TOES. THOR lost to get 3 points of recognition. Ah, now we come to my favorite part, where we see all the guys who are dead and gone, and get to see if their team cared. Titanium shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of weapons? What does the DAL SHANG arena have in common with the inns? It's just as comfortable to sleep in either place. Ha ha ha ha! Phlllt! Just had to do that before I leave the fine city of DAL SHANG. I feel much better now.
