                             Notes from the arena champ.

I fought the standby Ming-Chang the Sly and Excessively Tedious, and I osterized him.  
Probably a lawyer in his day job.  I feel no remorse for that win.  Of course, I 
should NOT feel remorse for winning.  That would be perverse.  As a spokesman for 
sausages, I don't 'do' perversity.

                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report.  Sit 
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis.  Say good-bye 
to SAND DANCERS, as they are pushed from the coveted top team spot by the JADED 
WARRIORS stable.  Hey everybody, watch out for GAMMA SAGITTAE, who flew up 20 points 
in the rankings after mashing TALK-TO-DEATH like a melon.  Keep your eye on this gal. 
Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  FELLING POWER was beat 
by EGGCRACKER and drops 9 points.  Our last turn's Duelmaster has lost, folks, lost 
to TO-FU BACKSTABBER, and HOTDOG has made the way for a new Duelmaster!  With HOTDOG 
clearing the throne, SAND DANCERS of PLUM BLOSSOM takes a proud seat as JADE 
MOUNTAIN's new Duelmaster, by virtue of recognition points.  Can you believe they are 
paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff?   
     Here is other news that is of note.  Did you hear that CRITICALS was most 
avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the personal hygiene of CRITICALS' warriors, 
I'm not surprised!  And you guys like to boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, 
cause JADED WARRIORS beats feet every time CRITICALS smiles at them.  Try farming, 
eh?  And who is this FELLING POWER you ask, with 20 points and a 2-1-1 record.  Ooh, 
the tales I could tell!   
     Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the 
most interesting, though!  Here's some advice:  warriors with little wit and will may 
encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in JADE MOUNTAIN have 
no sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  Well, there goes another Spy 
Report.  Good luck in next week's fights.  See ya next time I'm on this circuit!--

It is incredibly embarrassing to have been killed by an unarmed standby.  I can't look 
anyone in the face, not even myself. -- ghost of Hai Tai

William Wallace -- You were, of course, blinding by my beauty.  That is acceptable. -- 
Plum Blossom
P.S.  Oh.  Oh, dear, I did NOT intend or desire to kill you.  My sincere apology.  I 
will light a prayer in your name.

These lawyers get beyond themselves. -- Jo Ming

Felling Power -- Right, a young Critical, and I lose.  Typical. -- Eggcracker

Ho! My kind of round for the Jaded Ones. Killed one; one killed.  1-1-1-1! Has a ring 
to it. -- Cleopatra (The Ultimate Jaded Warrior)

Some arena fiends care about warrior make-ups. But I say, "They're dead!" But being as 
nice as I can be, I offer William Wallace, 6-3-11-15-17-11-21 AB 6-1-2 and now kaput. 
-- Cleopatra

Ruby Tortellini of Criticals, I didn't mean it nor want it, no matter what jaded 
Cleopatra might imply. Sorry. -- Geronimo (who was interpreted and really said 
something like "me no wantum killum)
