                                      SPY REPORT

     Hail LIN TIRIAN!  Warriors of the arena, prepare to be praised and blamed for 
your deeds.  And let's see, MY RULE OF THUMB fought MEDIO CUR and gained 22 points 
and contributed to SS03 03's 2-0-0.  MEDIO CUR has lost to MY RULE OF THUMB, falling 
19 points, while helping make SAND DANCERS a 2-3-0 turn.  And not without some honor, 
MARCH HARE now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of LIN TIRIAN.  Can someone 
confirm a rumor for me?  I hear the top team makes their losing fighters do dishes at 
The Lost Hope Inn until they win.  Maybe?   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  SAND DANCERS has cause to stand 
tall, as they were LIN TIRIAN's most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a 
team to beat.  And guess who avoided SAND DANCERS stable the most?  Believe it or 
not, it was PERRY COUNTY.  Anyone surprised?   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover 
or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     Remember, blood on the purple robe does not change it from a purple robe.  Dare 
to fight bravely.  Always good to rest in LIN TIRIAN, but never good to wear out my 
welcome.  Look for me in future turns.  Until you see my quill in LIN TIRIAN again, 
farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

I thought I was an uninvolved manager, but it never seems to fail, if my attention 
wavers, the teams go to hell.  Losing to standbys!  The shame. -- Jorja
P.S.  Not that they have far to go.

Okay, I redeem myself--but not the rest of the team, let 'em do their own work! By 
defeating the Dwarf today.  Every dog, or hare, has his day. -- March Hare

The concubine was a guy, crossdressing.  I hate that.  I like things to be visibly 
what they are. -- Medio Cur

A win and some skills.  About time. -- Bobwhite

That thief tried to pick my pocket!  He'll think twice before he does THAT again. -- 
Jenson

Headhunter -- This is great.  You can lose to me any time you want. -- Ephraim

Boss Orc, and good luck to you. -- Smitty of Perry County (A Consortium affiliate)

My Rule Of Thumb, I guess I should have kept my mouth shut! -- Leopold

My Doctor, that was fun! -- St Croix

Note: To whomever loaded me into Terrablood, you might check, because I am probably 
not an aimer. -- St. Croix

Stunning Inlay, you wear on me! -- Cannelton

Stunning Inlay, I would salute you as Duelmaster, but without a DM Column, I am told I 
should withhold any kudos. -- Smitty

Perry County land of a bunch of little towns and villages, a lot of creeks and streams 
and The Ohio River, and some hills and mines and forests. -- Smitty
