                                      SPY REPORT

     There seems to be frost in the air!  What a glorious turn we saw this week!  We 
started the day with BUFF CREAM PUFF getting kill number 3 in a bloodfeud by KENINA.  
6-2-3 seems like a way better record than 8-0-0 (let alone a measly 4-0 that VENGEANCE 
currently has)!  That was the first of SIX deaths!  Yes!  You heard that right.  SIX!  
ST-EAMROLL got steamrolled by CRUTCH!  NEW YORK SNOW finally found the right 
temperature and offed ST-IGMATA.  I'd never heard of an ERN before today and had to 
look up what kind of bird it was.  With DEMONICRUG's assassination, I can probably 
forget that information.  OZCANN REJECTS killed a second time, too.  CHASING SQUIRRELS 
(now why would someone want to do that!?!?) easily killed OAR, putting USEFUL WEAPONS 
on both sides of the death lists.  And finally ASTARTELYNN passed judgment on one of 
the convicted thieves.  Wow!  You're all making me giddy inside after this turn! 
     LASAGNA wanted the throne back (understandably).  I had to go back and look, 
curious if these two had fought before.  They have not.  HAOMARU defended the throne 
from LASAGNA's challenge, one of only three challenges for the turn. Unfortunately, 
AVENGERS gets four awards for the turn, but all four fall to HAOMARU.  One short of 
the magic five awards!
     Was the lack of challenges due to the frost, the avoids, the tourney, or 
something else entirely?!?  Certainly 29 avoids from 17 warriors doesn't help 
challenges go through.  8 avoids went to SOLIS MILITES, with JUST DESSERTS being the 
team that avoided the most.  In spite of all those avoids, SOLIS MILITES had no 
trouble finding ways to win, going 4-1.  I assumed that no other team would touch a 4-
1, especially with the team on the move listing, but I was wrong.  ASSASSIN NATION 
also went 4-1 on the turn in their return.  WELCOME BACK!!!  That left plenty of 
losses for the rest of the teams.
     BUFF CREAM PUFF was listed as the most challenged warrior.  We also saw a rare 
display of scumming with a 35 minute contest between TIRAMISU TERROR and SUNKIST.  
That was one of the challenges, but not a successful one. 
     In another rare sight, bashers have the best record over the last ten turns.  
WHAT?!?!?  That frost might be more serious than I thought.
     I forgot to ask for the tourney results, but I don't even care because of all the 
glorious blood running!!! Thanks for the most enjoyable turn I can remember!!!

Haomaru -- I have already recovered from the disappointment of losing such a great 
opportunity when I lost to you. I didn't think there was any way you could dodge one 

of my shots -- but you proved me wrong. I was overconfident because I'm full of nougat 
-- Abba
Zaba

Tui -- Such weak talons you have. Do you fall out of the trees often? -- Wacky One

Chimlevtal -- One of the Desserts will be presented to the commission for 
consideration into the champions tourney (which will be part of history when this 
personal ad hits the "wires"). Good luck and huzzah to Lemon Barrio who will be 
fighting with 30 FE exactly-- but is underskilled to have any real shot to TV. -- D.
