                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  Nothing works for a team like victory (How's 
that for a perceptive observation?) as CELLULOID HEROES can attest...  ENLIGHTENERS 
had cause to celebrate, after BABAYKA got 23 points by beating DA1.  Win some, lose 
some.  Speaking of which, BABAYKA was winsome, after beating DA1 and seeing him lose 
10 points.  SERGEANT 3 found out that ZORPUNT isn't a democracy.  You've gotta be the 
best to be Duelmaster here!  So who's the team that's been walking into taverns last 
week and ordering milk?  Sounds like a PR stunt to me.   
     So much to report, so little time!   
     Is there life after death?  Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after 
life!  Oh hard!  that to strike a flame, the match itself must needs be wasting!   
     Do not think spyreporting in ZORPUNT is the highlight of my life.  More 
important duties call me.  ZORPUNT, I leave you now.  The Duelmaster has agreed to 
foot my bill at The Welcome Wench.  'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir
