                                      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 stormcloud is brewing over the MASTERLY SENSE 
guildhouse.  Rumor says any more weeks like this ones 0-0-0 may send the team to the 
Dark Arena.  Coming up with a solid 1-0-0 outing, NAWLINS RU2 has advanced 4 places 
in the rankings.  Advancing in the rankings was DEATH'S  ARMY who went from last 
turn's 98-140-4, to this week's record of 102-141-4.  Hey everybody, watch out for 
CAKE, who flew up 22 points in the rankings after mashing CATWALK like a melon.  Keep 
your eye on this gal.  Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  
CATWALK was beat by CAKE and drops 15 points.  The most challenged warrior this week 
was SUN MONSTER.  If this keeps up, our Duelmaster's going to need more avoids!  
Drawing on all of hers experience as a 12-5-0 warrior, LAMBCHOP OF GOD went for the 
Duelmastership against SUN MONSTER this week.  It's a proud day for the HELPLESS 
ANIMALS stable, as their warrior, LAMBCHOP OF GOD, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  
4 out of 5 gladiators surveyed protect the body, so try and avoid aiming at that 
location.   
     Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the KATI-TEI arena.  Here's a 
song for you:  Who's afraid of the big, bad DEATH'S  ARMY?   Big bad DEATH'S  ARMY.  
Big bad DEATH'S  ARMY.  KATI-TEI's afraid of the big bad DEATH'S  ARMY.  Tra la la la 
la!  And you guys like to boo me?  Well, unsling your rasberries, cause NEON MYSTICS 
beats feet every time DEATH'S  ARMY smiles at them.  Try farming, eh?   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Here's some advice:  warriors 
with little wit and will may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.   
     Well, there's the manager of the KATI-TEI 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.  Hasta la bye-bye.  (Loud choruses of 'Beat it, ya bum!')-- The Unknown 
Spymaster
