Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and I'm going to give you a spy report!. It was a tough week for 2159 BOURBON ST, to drop 4 places in the rankings. Coming up with a solid 2-2-0 outing, FAR TRAVELERS has advanced 3 places in the rankings. Hey everybody, watch out for ANDRIANA, who flew up 20 points in the rankings after mashing THE HONEST MERCHANT like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. SNEELY was beat by CONLAOCH and drops 9 points. Well, if ya don't shows up at the laundromat, ya can'ts wash yer clothes. SOULKEEPER did not fight this week so his title was forfeit. In front of all the crowds, THE TRAMP took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I give the bum two weeks. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff? Here is other news that is of note. Did you hear that DRACO was most avoided team this week? Well, knowing the personal hygiene of DRACO's warriors, I'm not surprised! For those of you who like math, try this one: DRACO + Weapons That go Boom = FAR TRAVELERS + Avoid City. And who is this THE TRAMP you ask, with 68 points and a 13-11-1 record. Ooh, the tales I could tell! Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day drinking to their memory. Better tanked than dead! Too bad THE DOGHOUSE won't be eating any crow this week because of GALOOSH's bloodfeud passing. Why? No bloodfeud, no fowl (Drumroll, Groans). Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh? Well, there's the manager of the TOBIR giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). Well, there goes another Spy Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Its been fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos). Now that I've got you worked up for Snide Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME THE TRAMP 5697 13 11 1 68 THE DOGHOUSE (188) CHALLENGER CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -SOULKEEPER 5674 9 0 2 98 WRATHMEN 22-53 (562) CHAMPIONS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -VILE 5657 4 1 1 88 SATAN'S VERMIN (552) -XL 5672 9 7 1 67 WRATHMEN 22-53 (562) ADEPTS W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ANDRIANA 5703 4 2 2 45 FAR TRAVELERS (564) ATLATL 5702 4 4 1 41 FAR TRAVELERS (564) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -ZACH.
