                                      SPY REPORT

     I can't believe the violence in ARDIVENT!  I still haven't told Mom I'm writing 
Spyreports.  She'd have a cow!  Well, here we go...  MVP award for STUDEBAKER?  
FANDILS' proud of it after beating DORITO and getting 26 points.  Talk about yer 
major upsets!  DORITO's match with STUDEBAKER cost her a loss of 20 points!  What a 
putz!  MAMITU fights so hard to be Duelmaster, then quits fighting and loses the 
title.  No one said she was a genius...  And I was just getting used to the 
ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome THROW THUNDER.  Aren't GREATNESS 
APPEALS proud.  (Oh, my.) Is the Duelmaster really being a real snob to his 
teammates?  Don't ask me!   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  The warriors of PUPPY SQUAD must be getting lonely.  
They were the most avoided team.  Do you guys know something that I don't?  Hhmph!  
What kind of warriors are GREATNESS APPEALS?  PUPPY SQUAD, an easy team to beat if I 
ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation!  Like, is CHAD popular, or 
what?  He was challenged the most in all of ARDIVENT!  He's got a 7-19-0, is that 
good?  DOLT must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights.  He challenged 
BRUCE.  9 is a big difference.  (Well, that's what they tell me.) I thought DOLT 
showed great skill and promise when he subdued BRUCE.  All right, so I slept through 
it!  Big deal!   
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give 
it a break?  What if they had a fight and nobody showed up?  I'd be out of a job, 
that's what!!!   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop.  I had 
a fun time, see you later-- Debby Tonte
