                                      SPY REPORT

     So why do I have this bag over my head?  Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and 
I'm going to give you a spy report!.  A seasoned team is steady in the lists.  But to 
SPACE MUTINY 3, which fell to 19th, it's what you soak in before going to the Dark 
Arena.  Hey everybody, watch out for I'LL WAIT, who flew up 27 points in the rankings 
after mashing ELLIOT SANDY LEE like a melon.  Keep your eye on this guy.  Ya know, 
some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  THRONE lost to MR ROBOTO and 
drops 9 points.  It's a proud day for the ROOKIE HALEN 28 stable, as their warrior, 
CAN'T STOP, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  Can you believe they are paying me 10 
gold to deliver this stuff?   
     Here is other news that is of note.  Well dang howdy, but if challenges were 
votes, LIVE WIRE would be president.  Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to 
win.   
     Death is kind of like a new puppy:  he's always around wanting to play.  (Ha 
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?).  OEDIPUT REX defied all odds and slew DARK 
CHAMPION in the Dark Arena.  The only ones displeased were the buzzards, as DARK 
CHAMPION's meat is notoriously tough.  Knowing when to use the right tactics at the 
proper time is a very important step on the road to Duelmaster.   
     Well, there's the manager of the BLACKSTONE giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some 
tracks.  And remember, you can pick your friends and you can pick your--(loud boos), 
oh, you've heard that one already!-- The Unknown Spymaster
