Notes from the arena champ.
Rich Girl was an excellend Duelmaster, holding the Title for many months. I can only
hope to do as well and make TEAM GAMES proud.

SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
KYR'TERR brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. If this keeps up, LIGHT SKIN'D
HONEYZ, you'll have to shine swords instead of use them. A drop of 8 in the
rankings? DARQUE FORCES V turned their 1-0-0 turn into a 6th place rank in the
listings this turn. Any better than this, and you get put on hit lists. Of course,
we're all terribly impressed to see MESSIAH win a fight and gain 166 points,
terribly. Tsk, tsk, RICE 80 beat ROBKE COHUR and ROBKE COHUR lost 6 points. You're
breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of life, KYR'TERR may be getting
bland, as L5R stays top dog in the city. The Dripping Blade, humph! I've tasted
better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this stuff? From KYR'TERR's trash
dumps?
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. THE
GARRISON, I suppose you'll be glad to know you were this turn's most avoided team.
Care to know who is the most afraid of you? And it looks like DARQUE FORCES III
avoided them the most this turn. What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.
Hmph. Ooh, I'm frightfully impressed, ROBKE COHUR was this turn's most challenged
warrior. Watch that ego swell, sports fans.
Death and Taxes. The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience. Let's
see if anyone's dead or dying. Honor is like a chainmail shirt, it only shines
through use. Certain nameless cowards will doubtless rebuke me on this one.
I was about to buy a new quill pen the other day, but some fighter took it for
an epee. Forgive me for writing with a dagger. Well, I've had enough of this
drivel, and I'm sure you have too. Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather. I see
the crowds are getting restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens
