                                      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 DUDES 11, as they are pushed from the coveted top team spot by the JEWISH BUFFET 
stable.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) 
is MEDAL OF HONOR L5, who swept up 11 places in the ranks.  Take a look at ROOKIE 
QUEEN 38's act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 11 places in the team ranking.  
Suffering under a 0-1-0 record and dropping from 8th to 19th place were the 011312R.  
Keep trying!  A seasoned team is steady in the lists.  But to WARRIORS 11, which fell 
to 21st, it's what you soak in before going to the Dark Arena.  What goes up, must 
come down.  Watch out BLACKSTONE!  DARKHEART DUNGEON may fall on you as it crushes 
past the teams below it to fall on the 22nd spot.  Hey everybody, watch out for 
CRANGER, who flew up 34 points in the rankings after mashing PERSISTANT BEGGAR like a 
melon.  Keep your eye on this beast.  Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out 
on the sands.  THE PHANTOM was defeated by MALCORN MATZAH BALL and drops 11 points.  
Our battling duelmaster WORKABLE THERMALS has managed to hold the title, fending off 
PUKE's none too subtle advances.  Better luck next time, 4-LETTER VOMIT.  Advice to 
bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd!   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!  
Did you hear that WARRIORS 11 was most avoided team this week?  Well, knowing the 
personal hygiene of WARRIORS 11's warriors, I'm not surprised!  And you guys like to 
boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, cause 011312R beats feet every time WARRIORS 
11 smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?  And who is this FORCED SUBTEXT you ask, with 98 
points and a 12-8-0 record.  Ooh, the tales I could tell!  In a mismatch, our friend 
SOUL KISS of GET PERSONAL got heroic notions and challenged COBWEBS.  What did it get 
her?  A 3-0-2 record, that's what.  I heard SOUL KISS laughed all the way to the inn 
as hers new point total of 47 was posted in the arena.  I guess beating COBWEBS 
really pays!   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  Carrion Bird Cinematic Humor:  COBWEBS II:  
THE REMATCH.  Carrion Bird Frustration:  COBWEBS in platemail.  Ask not the elves for 
counsel, for they will say both yes and no.  Silly buggers, eh?   
     Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in BLACKSTONE have no 
sense of humor.  Or maybe that they were senseless.  Well, there goes another Spy 
Report.  Good luck in next week's fights.  Hasta la bye-bye.  (Loud choruses of 'Beat 
it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown Spymaster
