                             Notes from the arena champ.

Thanks for the challenge, Super Spook. Perhaps you should have done a better job 
spying? But I do appreciate the thought. Anything anyone can do to get me out of this 
league and up to the majors would be wonderful.

                                          -- Goalie, Duelmaster

                                      SPY REPORT

     I can't believe the violence in ARVAT!  I still haven't told Mom I'm writing 
Spyreports.  She'd have a cow!  Well, here we go...  Like, SECRET SQUIRRELS had to be 
so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by DEATH BY DESIGN!  Way to go DEATH 
BY DESIGN!  I don't wanna hurt anybody's feelings or anything, but ANGELS OF PAIN 
really goofed with their 0-3-0.  I just can't say enough good things about 
WOJOWNIKOW.  They went 3-0-1 their first time, don't slouch, and they've got good 
oral hygiene!  MVP award for OWUSU?  WOJOWNIKOW's proud of it after beating 
PERSISTENT BEGGAR and getting 15 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  SUPER SPOOK's 
match with DEE MOGORGON cost him a loss of 6 points!  And I was just getting used to 
the ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!)  Oh well, welcome SILVER LINING.  Aren't KHORS 
PHILOSOPHERS proud.  (Oh, my.) I hear the top team insists all their warriors get 
nine hours sleep.  They want photogenic fighters for PR photos.   
     So just why would someone becomes a warrior anyway?  It can't be for these 
really neat Spyreports can it?  The warriors of DEATH BY DESIGN 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 SECRET SQUIRRELS?  DEATH BY DESIGN, an easy team to 
beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation!   
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give 
it a break?  STYGIAN bloodfeuded (is that a word?) C.N. ENEMY for revenge over some 
guy's bad fortune.  Was it really worth it?  Hey you guys, don't you think your 
families would like to hear from you?  Write!  (Or have someone write for you.)  
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.  I had a fun 
time, see you later-- Debby Tonte
