SPY REPORT
You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf
Modeen. I return to RIZTAB once again! What's with ARISTOTLE? He actually beat
ARENA FELINES' ABYSSINIAN ASSASSIN, and walked away with 16 more points from the
fight. Laughs were big at DREAMERS while they watched ARISTOTLE clobber ABYSSINIAN
ASSASSIN. She lost 13 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.
I'm sure RIZTAB is excited about TOMAX, the new Duelmaster from PHOENIXGUARD 1015243.
(remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... I suppose you want to hear
some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... How well I know the
feeling of being the most challenged warrior, SWALLOW! Don't make idle boasts, they
may come back to haunt you.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You
young rapscallions, take note!
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here?
RIZTAB is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time for my
medication, so I'll leave now. Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Welcome back Arena Felines! Hopefully all your warriors learned their lesson after
enduring such a lengthy suspension for what some called herbal supplements and others
called performance-enhancing drugs. On the plus side since your last time in Riztab,
recreational catnap is now allowed everywhere except on the sands. I'll look for you
at Riztab's favorite tavern for that drink you owe me after this week's fights! --
