SPY REPORT
If you were disturbed from your beauty rest only to have to watch a bunch of
ARKERS brutes like you, you'd be grouchy, too. ARKERS saw the first turn for FAR
TRAVELERS, a 4-1-0, and some teams are scared, others are too arrogant to notice.
Take note friends, take note. Of course, we're all terribly impressed to see TICOTIN
win a fight and gain 21 points, terribly. Tsk, tsk, DRESDEN beat UNCUT RUBY and
UNCUT RUBY lost 10 points. You're breakin' my heart. And if variety is the spice of
life, ARKERS may be getting bland, as BARE KNUCKLES stays top dog in the city. The
Warty Toad, humph! I've tasted better ale at mortuaries. Where do they get this
stuff? From ARKERS' trash dumps?
He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward. What's
the big D? OTHERWOOD was the most avoided team? Bunch of lily livered... grumble...
mumble... curse... And who led the way in this mass act of cowardice? Let's see,
well, whatcha know? It was BAUBLES, INC.. Ha ha ha ha! POTTER SANDS was challenged
more times this turn than the Duelmaster. Now was the DM insulted or feared? Heh,
heh.
Some people like volunteer work in the hospitals. I volunteer for ARKERS'
morgue. More variety. And now a passing thought on a warrior dying young (CRUSHER
of BAUBLES, INC.): You had your chance and now you're dead. Oh well... Titanium
shields and bamboo daggers, guess what brave team is developing these kinds of
weapons?
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! Paste this one in your scrapbooks, you'll need
the kindling come this winter-- Snide Clemens
