Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and I'm going to give you a spy report!. Hey everybody, watch out for IT'S NOT A PROBLEM, who flew up 20 points in the rankings after mashing VENAL CLERK like a melon. Keep your eye on this guy. Unlike most arenas, JESUS MOOTZ 'O'PAIA managed to get his challenge off against the 22-30-0 OIL SPILL. Well, everybody's pal JESUS MOOTZ 'O'PAIA moved his record to 19-16-0 by defeating OIL SPILL in the Duelmaster's Title Bout and gaining 12 recognition points. Advice to bashers--never force anything, just get a bigger halberd! Here is other news that is of note. And hey, kiddies, those of you who didn't avoid KILLER BLUES, please raise you hand. Wow. Does ILLIS really have that many liars? For those of you who like math, try this one: KILLER BLUES + Weapons That go Boom = ISLE OF SKYE + Avoid City. And who is this OIL SPILL you ask, with 97 points and a 22-31-0 record. Ooh, the tales I could tell! D'ARTAGNAN of ISLE OF SKYE had better have a good reason for challenging down 12 points in a challenge which he lost. I thought D'ARTAGNAN showed great skill and promise when he was defeated by TOM BLIGH. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal! Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). Ask not the elves for counsel, for they will say both yes and no. Silly buggers, eh? Well, there's the manager of the ILLIS giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 'They're going to strangle you in the alley?). C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some tracks.
