SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of ARUAK CITY! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Ya gotta be quick on yer
feet! Keep your elbow off the table! Thrust! Block out the pain! THE ASSEMBLY is
now ranked 3rd with a 4-1-0 turn. What's with PARAGON? He actually beat BULLDOGS'
BULL MOOSE, and walked away with 22 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at
THE ASSEMBLY while they watched PARAGON clobber BULL MOOSE. He lost 17 points and
got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. ANIMAL FARM's hatred of THE
HITCHHIKERS surfaced again as ROSE ROOSTER challenged ARUAK CITY's top dog. I can
barely restrain my enthusiam for ANIMAL FARM's outstanding member, Duelmaster ROSE
ROOSTER. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow
fighters? Tough!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. How
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of
practive, THE HITCHHIKERS! In my day, no team with a 83-75-3 would scare me off!
What's the problem, BULLDOGS? How well I know the feeling of being the most
challenged warrior, TAPIK! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.
COWABUNGA! didn't quite know what to make of a challenge he received from SHADOW
MEERKAT of FURRY FURY, who is 23 points below him. SHADOW MEERKAT perhaps got his
just desserts, seeing as he beat COWABUNGA! and ended up with 56 recognition points.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. Is it my imagination, or are fighters getting
younger every day? To die so young, so gloriously!
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here? All
work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter. Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.
Olaffighterwork and no play. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

ambitious than you. (In a subtle way.) -- Cowabunga! (Nothing subtle about THAT!)

losing.... -- Bull Moose
Health. Humility. Honor. The Heart and Soul of Andoria awaits. -- Kennelworth
Captured Orc -- You were easier than stealing bait from a hook. -- Claret Crawdad

Cult Members are easy, and it gives me the only win on the team today. Works for me.
