                                      SPY REPORT

     Oh, hi.  Its just little 'ol Debby Tonte.  Thought I'd check out VALAMANTIS to 
see what's new.  MVP award for VARMILO?  KEYBOARDS' proud of it after beating LA 
CAVALE and getting 18 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  LA CAVALE's match with 
VARMILO cost him a loss of 14 points!  Don't you think the Duelmaster is being 
unfair?  I think STAR DROID should let LINDA VISTA be Duelmaster for a while, without 
fighting about it.  Who was the wiseguy that said VALAMANTIS' Duelmaster was paying 
for drinks at Drunkard's Guild?  Don't look at me!   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.  DARK AGES was the most avoided team.  Is a 116-121-6 record really 
that scary?  I don't know what MY FAULT's been doing.  They certainly haven't been 
accepting many fights from DARK AGES, that's fer sher.   
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give 
it a break?  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys can do?   
     Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain.  Soak it in cold water, and hand 
wash.  I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits.  Its been 
really albendranius!  Later, guys-- Debby Tonte
