                                      SPY REPORT

     Much has changed in MALCORN since last I was here.  Never fear, Olaf Modeen 
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters.  Biff!  Pow!  MALCORN 
watched with glee as GREENWARDENS got knocked off top spot by SACRILEGIOUS MEAT!  
What's with THE GOVERNATOR?  He actually beat GREENWARDENS' WOODWALKER, and walked 
away with 17 more points from the fight.  Major screwup at SACRILEGIOUS MEAT.  SMOKED 
SOLOMON lost 3 points to CHARISMATIC.  Some new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe SMOKED 
SOLOMON will provide more easy wins...  Try as he might, RUTHLESS wasn't good enough 
at persuading BIRDSONG to step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Advice to 
fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  What do people see in 
SMOKED SOLOMON?  His 7-8-1?  SACRILEGIOUS MEAT ain't talkin', but he's got 30 points. 
     Warriors of MALCORN unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Here's some 
advice:  study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty.   
     Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors.  Any plans here?  
MALCORN 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

     Has anyone seen it in print that the "Goat" is leaving the "Cartel"?  There were
some diplos to the effect of a special branch of the Cartel being formed, like secret
societies, governmental agencies and alliances certain agendas are developed.  To
obtain the desired effect of any agenda only key personnel can be used.  The "Goat"
is "Cartel" so until you see it with me announcing that I am not Cartel, remember,
"The Agenda of the Core is for you to fight for."  I hope this stops the confusion.
