                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out DAL SHANG to 
see what's new.  MVP award for GEORGE PETERS?  MEDAL OF HONOR J8's proud of him after 
beating HEROD and getting 27 points.  Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? 
I think GUNSLINGER should let MALDI STONEBREAKER 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.   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.  The warriors 
of LAUGH TRACK LORDS must be getting lonely.  They were the most avoided team.  Do 
you guys know something that I don't?  Is there some deep dark secret why LAUGH TRACK 
LORDS' been avoiding LAUGH TRACK LORDS so much?  Or is it just that they're too 
scared?  Can SAND DANCERS' NORBEN THE LESSER be more popular than me?  He was 
challenged the most, but is that really the same?  LADY LUCK must not be a good 
enough fighter to get in fair fights.  She challenged KARANZA THE WILD.  12 is a big 
difference.  (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought LADY LUCK showed great skill 
and promise when she overcame KARANZA THE WILD.  All right, so I slept through it!  
Big deal!   
     What does a fighter fight for?  I mean, the crowds don't give a hoot if someone 
gets killed.  Not after four more fights.  I'm always kinda bummed when a decent 
warrior gets killed.  HEROD, of POSSE had a 8-3-0 when he got bumped off by GEORGE 
PETERS.  It was totally gross when GEORGE PETERS killed HEROD.  Blood and itty bitty 
body bits all over the place!  Things weren't too happy at POSSE, either.  Fight, 
fight, fight.  Is that all you guys can do?   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it 
quits.  Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby Tonte

Our congratulations to Gunslinger. -- Jorja and the Sand Dancers

P.S.  Dal Shang arena didn't "become" silent, it's been silent for years.  When the
wind's right, you can hear the waves on the beach from the upper (empty) tiers of the
arena.

And we salute the participants in the recent mail-in tourney, with a special cheer
for Dash Riprock, tourney victor. -- Jorja et al again

Two-three, but no kills this time.  Okay, we can work with that. -- An Yee
