                                      SPY REPORT

    BREXIT remains the focal point for the day!  RONDOR SENDAL will happily leave our 
fine arena and BREXIT behind, because our title fight was yet another rematch with a 
similar outcome to last turn.  NUMBERS GAME therefore gets the turn honors since they 
also topped the Team on the Move with 29 recognition gained.
    We are now down to 5 teams in the rankings, which might be the lowest number since 
I've been reporting.  Fortunately all 5 teams were active and that generated 13 fights 
from 21 warriors.  MIDDLE WAY 7 and AVENGERS fought 5 each.  Two of the fights were 
challenges (both up in the rankings). The only death was in the Dark Arena.  For 
undefeated warriors, I have nothing to report.
    I personally enjoy knowing how people are avoiding.  This turn only 6 warriors 
sent avoids.  I'm not sure how to read this, but BASH BROS OCEAN avoided USEFUL 
WEAPONS, 6 avoids from 3 warriors.  Do double avoids really help?!?  No clue, but that 
is what happened.  RONDOR SENDAL was the most challenged warrior, but was that 1 
challenge?  2 challenges?
    Your memory is solid, Jorja.  I, of course, was joking about NELLIE and referring 
to JOB's 0-72 start, which is a remarkable number without a single win.  LIFE and DUFF 
certainly had a large number total.  But you should thank me.  I encouraged NELLIE to 
get off that train this very turn!
    Lady Smith, how can I even respond to your claims and demand.  I will turn it back 
on you, in fact.  Keep Smithy to yourself IF YOU CAN!  Prove how much of a lady you 
are not to me, but to him!  When his eyes and desires are satisfied by you and you 
alone, we'll know you've succeeded!  As for me, I may not deserve a thing, but that is 
not for me or you to judge!  For what I have, I have this arena, which I love dearly.  
And to the extent which your participation makes the arena a better place, I count you 
in that appreciation. For what I desire, I'd like three times the teams, three times 
the participation in personals, and a DM column every turn!

               -- Belinda, looking forward to reading about all our arena's exploits 
                  in the upcoming tournament (ha ha ha ha ha)

Sure, sure, Belinda, you feel sorry for Smithy because he has lovely me, and you have, 
and deserve, nothing. Keep your roving eyes and your third-grade words and your smelly 
hands off my man! -- Lady Smith

Jorja, "good warrior"? I can't answer that now, but I will know it when I see it. -- 
Lady Smith

Hey flunky Belinda, if you ever see that Assur around (like at night) tell him to go 
take a Bender. -- Lady Smith

Luv muh wepuns. Shure do. --Smithy

Creampuff, you were; you were. And raising on a small pair.... tsk; tsk. -- Poker, 
Useful Weapon (Counting his winnings and playing his alter ego.)

Storm season, go stick a shard up your b&. nose! -- Shard, Useful Weapon

Wham, bam, thank you ma'am. (Did y'all know Dangerous Criminal was drag?) -- 2 X 4, 
Useful Weapon

One of the jesters told this joke the other day in Court:  "How many Freshman ASU 
athletes does it take to change a light bulb?" Answer: Don't know. Changing Light 
Bulbs is a Sophomore class. personals for dm 31

Lady Smith -- I'm not sure what to make of your comment that this is "my" arena, and 
that the town and arena have "gone to pot."  I didn't do it! -- Jorja

Belinda -- The biggest loser ever, so far as I know, was Life of Games Library in 
Osksi.  He graduated on receiving his, well, its fourteenth win.  It was, I think, 14-
97 at that point.  This led to Green Eyes saying "Never again!" and arranging that 
other gladiators would absolutely graduate after one hundred fights.  Duff of 
Islanders in Illis graduated at one hundred fights, but without fourteen wins.  Job of 
Shepherds in Talcama had a good long run, too. -- Jorja, remembering stuff unreliably

Hanzo -- Whatever you're avenging, *I* didn't do it. -- Norison Rose

Tanken -- How can somebody so little be so mean? -- Nellie Purr
P.S.  And stingy!  Only one skill?

Brexit -- Go play with your numbers.  I'm outta here. -- Rondor Sendal

3 Nights in Vegas -- How did I teach you all that?  I didn't think I knew it! -- 
Nearly Parker

Poker -- You're so much more experienced.  Ouch! -- Creampuff, not a dwarf
