SPY REPORT
Oh, what a sad state of affairs we find ourselves in today! Woe is me! Woe is me!
Why am I lamenting so much? The Shadowspire is down to single-digit teams for the
first time. Yes, you read that correctly, The Spire only had 9 active teams this
cycle. It has taken 422 turns, but it finally happened. I am distraught and
inconsolable, but the spy report must go on.
:::Sigh::: Let's start with the Duelmaster of this near-empty wasteland we call an
arena. Otto's Sous-Chef sat atop the arena as our day started. It is nice to report
our Duelmaster was the most challenged warrior this turn, but that is where the good
news will end for OS-C. Dr. Robotnik was the lucky challenger that was able to face
our champion the sands, and he emerged victorious. Congrats to our newest Duelmaster,
Dr. Robotnik.
I have mentioned the most challenged warrior already, so let's move our attention to
those who avoid. I hear they are having a time over in Seam with avoids and avoiders,
but at least they have people to avoid. That was a low blow, but I stand by it! I'm
sad and I lash out at those I care about most. It isn't you guys, I'll yell at my
family when I get home. Until then, I'll just continue to be snarky and share my
disdain for you until then. Okay, Big Lake Solution was jumping at shadows, rather
long shadows if I do say so but shadows nonetheless. The inactive NBA Legends was our
most avoided team, and they were mostly avoided by, you guessed it, Big Lake Solution.
There is little else to report. Only one death occurred this turn and that in the
Dark Arena. Literate Loons had a wonderful 4-1 turn that caused them to jump up 7
spots in the rankings. NBA Legends, Pray the Gods, and Arduin were inactive this
turn, leading to a rather dismal showing overall for The Spire. Darque Ages remains
the top team over the last 3 turns after a 3-1 showing today.
Whelp, that is all that I have today! Hopefully, more of you bums will show up next
week and I will have more to talk about. I know that there is an ebb and flow to
activity in the arenas, but I think we have been doing too much ebbing and now enough
flowing - or growing rather. Invite a friend, shadow run a second team (not really),
or just show up next time. I will hopefully see all of you AND MORE in two weeks!

failed to mention my guild's 5-0 record for the day. It happens so rarely and my clan
worked so hard to attain perfection, that I feel they should be recognized. --

I forgot to mention I used the ChaptGPT on both my Unforgiven chapters, with a little
