                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  The boys at PLANETARY FORCES left the arena 
dejected, after being kicked out of the top spot by DON'T AVOID US.  Good show!  
Those betting on FINAL WRECKONING lost their shirt, as FINAL WRECKONING lost their 
fighting abilities:  0-0-0.  What's a move up by 4 you ask?  (alright, maybe you 
didn't ask)  Cause for celebration, according to ETERNAL ABYSS.  Say what you will 
about blind luck and dirty fighting, but DON'T AVOID US will tell you 23-20-2 is 
nothing to laugh at...  ETERNAL ABYSS had cause to celebrate, after JAINA got 21 
points by beating EMBEZZLING SCRIBE.  SHEEBA THE FIERCE certainly had a baffled 
expression on hers face, after losing to ALEXA and losing 13 points in the process!  
COLD successfully staved off a grab for the roses by M. CHARDINEE of NOBLISH ISLAND.  
Does NOBLISH ISLAND have no one talented enough to dethrone him?  Word has it one 
team in NOBLISH ISLAND is taking speech lessons to try to bore their opponent to 
death.  I'll bet it works.   
     My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter. 
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights!  Like the noble eagle soaring amongst 
the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of FINAL WRECKONING, alone and unchallenged.  
Like a pup with its tail between its legs, DON'T AVOID US scurried away from FINAL 
WRECKONING.  Oh, the shame!  Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and TARA THE 
WISE is it right now.  Most challenged warrior.  Isn't THE LUCKY ONES proud!  Take 
heed NOBLISH ISLAND, of the unprincipled action of SLEEP.  By challenging BART 
BLACKSKULL, 28 points below it, SLEEP besmirches the noble art of dueling.  SLEEP 
beat BART BLACKSKULL.  The whole thing leaves a bitter memory.  Them's the breaks, 
TARA THE WISE.  Expecting fair challenges from DON'T AVOID US is evidently too much 
to ask.  Warriors of NOBLISH ISLAND!  Do you wish your reputations tainted by the 
base challenge of HUGS?   
     The moving sword slashes, and having slashed, moves on...  Ask not a spymaster 
for counsel, for he will pontificate long after you have fallen into an unconscious 
stupor.   
     All good things must come to an end.  Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards 
fat!  Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for NOBLISH ISLAND?  
On that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir
