                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, KATI-TEI?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Now keep the taverns open late tonight, 
for there are sorrows to drown for PHILANTHROPISTS, whose 0-0-0 this turn dropped 
them by 7 into 9th.  Ha!  SUET LEGION 526.3 turned their 0-0-0 turn into a 5th 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 DEADLY DIADEM win a fight and gain 26 
points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, DEADLY DIADEM beat SAINTS and SAINTS lost 17 points.  
You're breakin' my heart.  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as BROKEN 
BRAKE LINE takes the Title and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, 
heh.  I'm not in a very good mood today, but why am I telling you this?  You want to 
know what's new, don't you, KATI-TEI?   
     Well, let's take a look at some more misdeeds of you miserable sword-boys.  
KATI-TEI, I am losing what little hope I had in you.  DEATH'S  ARMY the most avoided 
team?  What insult will suffice, I cannot say.  And it looks like NAWLINS RU2 avoided 
them the most this turn.  What a pack of would be losers, if you ask me.  Hmph.  I 
DRANK WHAT?! was challenged more times this turn than the Duelmaster.  Now was the DM 
insulted or feared?  Heh, heh.  And we have VOODOO in a challenge, going down 9 
points for the fight.  Guess what?  I thought VOODOO showed great skill and promise 
when she subdued DUSTMITE.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals.  I volunteer for KATI-TEI's 
morgue.  More variety.  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.  Just wait 'till next time I show up 
here, I won't be so nice!  So nyaaah!  I see the crowds are getting restless, I must 
leave now-- Snide Clemens

Persad FROM LAST TURN:

Sorry. Possibly? NLs running a little late early this aM. Gotta get strats in the 
mail. If I downchallenge, my bad. Sort of. -- N.O. (Mgr Nawlins)

Persad FROM THIS TURN:

But, then, since DM41 and HW1029 were apparently lost-in-the-mail (same envelope) 
there was no effect and I neither downchallenged nor ran at all. -- N.O. (Manager 
Nawlins)

Oh, Pshaw!!!!!!!!!!!!!
