                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.  
I doubt ARDIVENT will ever be the same.  And let's see, STUDEBAKER fought DORITO and 
gained 19 points and contributed to FANDILS' 4-0-0.  DORITO has lost to STUDEBAKER, 
falling 13 points, while helping make PUPPY SQUAD a 0-1-0 turn.  Due to his absence 
and inability to defend the throne, THROW THUNDER has lost the title of Duelmaster.  
And all eyes were on STUDEBAKER this turn as it ascended to the throne of Duelmaster. 
ARDIVENT has a new victor!  By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last 
night, cramped under the table at The Seaside Manor?   
     Oriental wise man once say, 'Hiding behind shields prevents proper sun tanning.' 
Inscrutable, but true.  FATA LEGIO has cause to stand tall, as they were ARDIVENT's 
most avoided team.  A smart manager knows this is a team to beat.  And avoiding FATA 
LEGIO more than any other team we find FANDILS.  ARDIVENT, are we going to accept, or 
respect this sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior this turn was GENERATION D's 
warrior CHAD.  More fighters challenged him than challenged the Duelmaster!   
     We only live a short time in this world, so why not take a sharp blade, and 
shave it close?  We'd like to remind certain teams not to rob the graves of their 
enemies.  You know who you are; and it's considered rude.   
     I like this place, ARDIVENT, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls. 
Who could ask for more?  It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet again, keep 
your swords sharp and your hammers heavy.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets 
to paper-- Alarond the Scribe
