                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt TALCAMA will ever be the same.  It seems the training can make the 
difference, as UNTOUCHABLES is pushed out of top team by THE BIKE SHOP, who came from 
2nd with a 3-2-1 this turn.  ELECT.NITE SPECIAL stable has parlayed this turn's 1-0-0 
into a 3 space move up the rankings.  This brings them up to 5th place.  Good work, 
guys!  And let's see, PHOUKA fought ROCKSHOX and gained 14 points and contributed to 
THE EMERALD ISLES' 3-1-1.  KANOR has lost to RIMTRUE, falling 9 points, while helping 
make RUNE a 2-3-0 turn.  Due to his absence and inability to defend the throne, 
ANOMALY has lost the title of Duelmaster.  And not without some honor, MASON FRUITBAT 
now claims the title and throne of Duelmaster of TALCAMA.  Tell me, is nothing 
sacred?  I have heard from unimpeachable sources that The Original Arthur's Last 
Stand uses trolls in their stew.  Talk about gristle!   
     The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more 
could a warrior ask of life?  Well, besides that.  I also notice that the THE BIKE 
SHOP stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on TALCAMA, what are you 
afraid of?  And avoiding THE BIKE SHOP more than any other team we find THE EMERALD 
ISLES.  TALCAMA, are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  Well, sports 
fans, take notice that MINOR from RUNE was TALCAMA's most challenged warrior this 
turn.   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  Kudos go out to THE SELKIE this turn, for revenging THE EMERALD 
ISLES' bloodfeud against COSMIC KARMA's warrior COSMIC CITADEL.  Well done.  A brave 
warrior does not carry a red shield, he has nothing to cover or hide when the fight 
is over.  Consider well.   
     I like this place, TALCAMA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.  
Who could ask for more?  Well, I'm burning daylight here in TALCAMA and I've a long 
road ahead of me.  Happy Trails.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to paper--
