     A standby?  How embarrassing.

                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  The boys at TMM EXPERIMENTS 23 left the arena 
dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by SAND DANCERS.  Good show!  
Nothing works for a team like victory (How's that for a perceptive observation?) as 
VELA can attest...  TMM EXPERIMENTS 23 had cause to celebrate, after HIGH-END BUN got 
13 points by beating SAGAT OF PAIDAN.  A certain someone should cut down on the 
drinking and practice more, after losing 4 points to KAPPA VELORUM.  (Discrete 
enough, WHATLEY?) Our Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost to CAPTIAN LENSAR, BUT CHAEGO 
TEN SELAH is still the Duelmaster because he has the most recognition points!  Word 
has it one team in DAL SHANG is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent 
to death.  I'll bet it works.   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?  Perhaps the warriors of POSSE should take up some 
hobbies, as they are the most avoided team...  Like a pup with its tail between its 
legs, TMM EXPERIMENTS 23 scurried away from POSSE.  Oh, the shame!  If challenges 
were horses, KAPPA VELORUM could open up a fast food joint!   
     The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on...  Oh hard!  that to 
strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!   
     All good things must come to an end.  Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards 
fat!  Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for DAL SHANG?  On 
that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir
