SPY REPORT
Thankyouthankyou. It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in
ERINIKA. Hope you enjoy the show. Oh, who am I kidding? I already got paid! We
now have a new top team for all of you guys to dogpile on. BLACKMAIL now holds the
crown and they are betting they can keep it. Coming up with a solid 0-0-0 outing,
PLAY BALL has advanced 3 places in the rankings. Hey everybody, watch out for
EXTORTION, who flew up 18 points in the rankings after mashing SALINDA RENN like a
melon. Keep your eye on this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was
SALINDA RENN, who dropped 12 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout
with EXTORTION. Unlike most arenas, DEATH SUCKS managed to get his challenge off
against the 15-16-0 ROS QUIN. Our battling duelmaster DEATH SUCKS has managed to
hold the title, fending off ROS QUIN's none too subtle advances. Better luck next
time, MIDDLE WAY 18. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this
stuff?
But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!
Did you hear that SUE'S BOYS was most avoided team this week? Well, knowing the
personal hygiene of SUE'S BOYS' warriors, I'm not surprised! For those of you who
like math, try this one: SUE'S BOYS + Weapons That go Boom = BLACKMAIL + Avoid City.
Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day
drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! Ask not the elves for counsel,
for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh?
I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of
you whom I have not offended yet. Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian,
but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors. And remember, you can pick your
friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one already!-- The
Unknown Spymaster
