Who'd a thought it?! My 2nd Title. Man, I would never have expected to be better than Jastrow or Rhoda, but here I am. Eat your hearts out teammates! Actually, though, they are both better, but apparently not luckier. I will take the results in all modesty. I advise everyone to read Winds Of War and War And Remembrance especially in these tumultuous times in which we live and because of those trying to mislead our great nation. -- Slote DMII SPY REPORT It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report. Sit back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis. It was a tough week for ORDER OF WIND, to drop 4 places in the rankings. Coming up with a solid 3-2-0 outing, LOST ALDERAAN has advanced 4 places in the rankings. Advancing in the rankings was THE MIDDLE WAY 4 who went from last turn's 918-1014-27, to this week's record of 922-1015-28. Hey everybody, watch out for MOLLY JEFFERSON, who flew up 15 points in the rankings after mashing BABY FACE FOSTER like a melon. Keep your eye on this gal. Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands. BABY FACE FOSTER was bested by MOLLY JEFFERSON and drops 12 points. It's a proud day for the THE MIDDLE WAY 4 stable, as their warrior, FLORIDA GAINES, ascended the Duelmaster's throne. Can you believe they are paying me 10 gold to deliver this stuff? Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the LYRATILAN arena. And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid THE BLUES 25, please raise you hand. Wow. Does LYRATILAN really have that many liars? Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch WINDS OF WAR's act in the arena. Those acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from THE BLUES 25. Well just about everybody wants a piece of WASHINGTON VERN, who was this week's most challenged warrior. Can any one out there say 'weasel'? Oh well, just saying JASTROW will do. He challenged 36 points down to trash SNOOKS EAGLIN. Definition of petty: JASTROW defeated SNOOKS EAGLIN, a mismatch of 36 points. In a touching display by a 'touched' warrior, PEACHES went after PETER STOCK, who was higher by 24 points. Well, when the dust settled, PEACHES was killed by PETER STOCK. Remember that an arena is not always a safe place to be, but it is one of the most interesting, though! For those of you who missed it, Death showed up, grabbed PEACHES by the ear and took her away to a place where she won't need a coat. Carrion Bird Heaven: PEACHES was slain by PETER STOCK (The true definition of 'Street Pizza'). Remember: alliances are great, but try and take your ally in the arena with you and see what happens. I think I had better cut this one short. It's been nice chatting to those of you whom I have not offended yet. Well, there goes another Spy Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Its been fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos).
