                                      SPY REPORT

     I was going on vacation, see?  Surf, sun...  But what do those bums say?  "Hit 
the road, Debby Tonte.  DAYLA KIV needs a spyreport."  Oh, well.  Too bad, SPROUT OF 
MY WAY!, but HELL'S PACK was just too good to be stopped.  MVP award for HOWLING 
BEAST?  HELL'S PACK's proud of him after beating JOE SHROE and getting 10 points.  
Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair?  I think SPORTACUS should let BARTRAN 
KLEE be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it.  Who was the wiseguy that 
said DAYLA KIV's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Crystal Wheel?  Don't look 
at me!   
     AAARRGH!!!  I HATE SPYREPORTING!!!  Sorry.  I just had to say it.  SPROUT OF MY 
WAY! was the most avoided team.  Is a 109-37-6 record really that scary?  I don't 
know what HELL'S PACK's been doing.  They certainly haven't been accepting many 
fights from SPROUT OF MY WAY!, that's fer sher.  I'm not so sure CHOPPED LIVER knew 
all the facts when he challenged MARTIN DENNY of SAND DANCERS.  I saw CHOPPED LIVER 
stumbling and dribbling at The Crystal Wheel last week...  CHOPPED LIVER was so 
studly out there in the sands!  Beating MARTIN DENNY and getting 24 points.  SPROUT 
OF MY WAY! must be proud, for sure!   
     Challenges, revenges, Bloodfeuds.  All DAYLA KIV ever talks about is fighting!  
Me, I'm more laid back.  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out 
of a job, that's what!!!   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I gotta leave.  DAYLA KIV is like such a dump, and you guys smell too much!  I 
had a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte

Sportacus -- I suppose I must be to teach skills. -- Bartran Klee

A standby who loses and teaches.  Excellent. -- Lisa tyl Kohl

Any standby with the cognomen "Dangerous" should be avoided. -- Jack Farmer

Good!  The Dirty Ruffian lost.  And he taught me a skill. -- Martin Denny

Leo -- Bedrest is good.  I enjoyed it. -- Joe Shroe

Wow, just... wow.  "We salute the tourney participants. A special cheer for Gumball, 
Champion of Adepts. -- Sand Dancers"  I guess the Sand Dancers have a special thing 
for the adepts class.  Or for Gumballs.  I mean, I get that.  Adepts is cool.  
Gumballs are, well, if not cool at least successful and, let's be honest, sometimes 
that equates to the same thing.  In either instance, you get that fun mix of someone 
who knows their capabilities mixed with a rule-breaker and chance-taker.  Someone who 
walks the streets late at night, as if above the dangers of the shady districts they 
traverse and, in the same warrior, someone deliciously vulnerable to vagaries of 
chance or love.  Or maybe the Sand Dancers' noses are so far up in the air that they 
couldn't see below the Adepts.  Anyway, occasionally, if you take the opportunity to 
look, you might see someone much earlier in their career that... well... just carries 
themselves with the poise, bravado and maturity of someone well beyond their years.  
Say, for example, like someone in the Rookies class.  Now, in fairness, you often get 
that Rookies tool who thinks they are Ahringol's gift to dueling.  You know, looking 
to impress because they discovered which end of their sword to hold.  But, if you look 
hard enough in the most unlikely places -- for example within DAYLA  freakin'  KIV -- 
you might, and the conditional use of "might" is strongly cautioned here, you MIGHT 
find the Rooks freakin' Champion.  You understand the concept, do you not?  The last 
warrior standing from -- oh, I don't know for sure because I surely don't care about 
such things -- but perhaps it was FOUR HUNDRED and THIRTY-SIX warriors?!  That poser 
from Gumball -- aptly named, I might add, given it suggests winning (or applying) a 
prize -- waltzed through one-third of the class of warriors I did. Hey, Gumball, no 
disrespect and bravo to you and yours.  I got nothing but love for you.  Anyway, Sand 
Dancers, I guess it begs the question. What the heck am I, chopped liver?! -- Tree Fu 
Tom, a.k.a. Chopped Liver
