                                      SPY REPORT

     It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters.  Look on my work, ye mighty, 
and despair!  The boys at PHILANTHROPISTS 3 left the arena dejected, after being 
kicked out of the top spot by BIG STRONG MEN.  Good show!  Like a chunk of francium 
heaved into a wet pond, DEADWOOD blew up the rankings to 16!  Rumor has it an 
incurable disease has swept the stable of SCARLET CHAPEL.  Note their drop in the 
rankings from 4th to 19th.  Watch out!!!  The boys at ROOKIE CULT 42 aren't the 
happy-go-lucky bunch we all know and love, after suffering a 13 drop last week.  
Thinking about sending their team manager to the Dark Arena is TRIBAL COUNCIL 9, 
after suffering a 11 drop in ranking.  DEADWOOD had cause to celebrate, after BULLOCK 
got 32 points by beating MAGE ARMOR.  DHRUN certainly had a baffled expression on his 
face, after losing to RANDOM HENCHMAN and losing 23 points in the process!  You could 
cut the tension with a scimitar as AGON of PHILANTHROPISTS 3 met the Duelmaster.  
What can be a greater victory?  AGON has taken his place as the top, as DWES EG's new 
Duelmaster.  So who was the warrior seen charging into immovable walls and 
challenging dead trees?  Someone's got a basic problem...   
     A Zenmaster once told me, 'Does not the spinning wheel turn?  And do not the 
little birds cry out?'  Any ideas?  Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and BLACK 
FEATHER is it right now.  Most challenged warrior.  Isn't TRIBAL COUNCIL 9 proud!  
Call 'im brash!  Call 'im brassy!  Call 'im brave!  Call 'im sassy!  STRING THEORY 
will face BLACK FEATHER, up by 31.  Aaaah, just call 'im dead meat.  Fixed fights?  
Paybacks?  Blind luck?  Whatever, STRING THEORY challenged BLACK FEATHER, STRING 
THEORY the underdog by 31 points.   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  Questions are being raised about the disposing of severed body parts in the 
arena.  A certain tavern in DWES EG would I avoid!   
     All good things must come to an end.  As the seasons change, and the creatures 
of the wild change also, so do I feel a yearning to leave this place.  Like a mixed 
metaphor, and an overtaxed simile, I now bid DWES EG farewell-- Novgorodny Vir
