SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! BASH BROS EVANGELIST after a sorry 0-0-0 might want to consider
abandoning the sands and taking up singing the 'Can't fight no more' blues! Good
things come to those who fight well, as SAND DANCERS can attest, moving up by 1.
GRIZZLED VETERANS had cause to celebrate, after IDYNY got 15 points by beating
SERGEANT 3. Win some, lose some. Speaking of which, IDYNY was winsome, after
beating SERGEANT 3 and seeing him lose 5 points. A certain someone saw STAR RUBY at
The Blazing Unicorn with the shakes, and now she fails to show up to defend hers
throne. What a pathetic slob! What can be a greater victory? GORBAN TEN SKORA has
taken his place as the top, as DAL SHANG's new Duelmaster. Word has it one team in
DAL SHANG is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life!
And how sociable are DAL SHANG's warriors? Come, let us see. Perhaps the
warriors of SAND DANCERS should take up some hobbies, as they are the most avoided
team... Like a pup with its tail between its legs, GRIZZLED VETERANS scurried away
from SAND DANCERS. Oh, the shame! Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and
KARANZA THE WILD is it right now. Most challenged warrior. Isn't SAND DANCERS
proud!
The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on... Ask not for whom the
sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
Leave me now, you base fools! Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards fat!
Like a mixed metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid DAL SHANG farewell--
Novgorodny Vir
