                                      SPY REPORT

     Thankyouthankyou.  It's great for me, The Unknown Spymaster to be back in 
BLACKSTONE.  Hope you enjoy the show.  Oh, who am I kidding?  I already got paid!  
Take a look at THIRSTY THUGS 1302's act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 22 places 
in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit 
it's corny) is ROOKIE QUEEN 11, who swept up 20 places in the ranks.  Hey everybody, 
watch out for GOD SAVE THE QUEEN, who flew up 19 points in the rankings after mashing 
HTN like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to 
walk out on the sands.  MORGANOR was beat by ROBERT PAULSON 40 and drops 8 points.  
In front of all the crowds, ASTROSMASH took the Duelmaster's crown for his own.  I 
give the bum two weeks.  An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day 
keeps T.P.s at bay.   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the BLACKSTONE arena.  Did 
you hear that PROJECT MAYHEM 12 was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the 
personal hygiene of PROJECT MAYHEM 12's warriors, I'm not surprised!  And you guys 
like to boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, cause APRIL MAIL-IN 14S beats feet 
every time PROJECT MAYHEM 12 smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?  Well dang howdy, but 
if challenges were votes, PROPHET'S SONG would be president.  Although it may be a 
contest he doesn't want to win.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Remember:  alliances are great, 
but try and take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens.   
     I think I had better cut this one short.  It's been nice chatting to those of 
you whom I have not offended yet.  Okay, so I may not be the world's best comedian, 
but then you guys aren't the world's best warriors.  And remember, you can pick your 
friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), oh, you've heard that one already!-- The 
Unknown Spymaster
