                                      SPY REPORT

     Much has changed in ALJAFIR since last I was here.  Never fear, Olaf Modeen 
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters.  What's with N- MOCK?  She 
actually beat MIDDLE WAY's STELRA TIRINS, and walked away with 28 more points from 
the fight.  Laughs were big at 1ST NORTHERN ORCS while they watched N- MOCK clobber 
STELRA TIRINS.  She lost 27 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the 
stands.  Try as he might, DROGBA wasn't good enough at persuading ATTILA THE HUN to 
step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up 
fighting!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  The 
most avoided team was HEROESANDFOUNDONES.  The bums at DEATH INCARNATE couldn't face 
the challenges from HEROESANDFOUNDONES!  No excuse for that!  What do people see in 
VIOLET ORC?  His 20-26-0?  HEROESANDFOUNDONES ain't talkin', but he's got 86 points.  
Taunt your opponent ROONEY!  That was my lucky charm when I was unfairly challenged.  
(and by 21 points!)  CALIGULA should have an easy win.  I have to get this off my 
chest.  What a low dog, CALIGULA!  He can't set himself up in a real match.  I was 
sorry to see ROONEY lose.   
     Warriors of ALJAFIR unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Here's some 
advice:  study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty.   
     Who knows what the future holds for a warrior.  More fights, there's no doubt.  
ALJAFIR is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.  I don't 
want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

given any thought to who's going to mend all the stuff you rip? -- Tamarin Mellirn

Attila the Hun -- Why am I not surprised to see you here? -- Vinn Wulf
P.S.  And people say Detective Kellumbo down-challenges!

glaring.  Let's go over to the fabric warehouse and look over the stock. -- Stelra
Tirins

The Red Baron -- Damn, and I don't even fly off the handle, much less through the
air.  I must be doing something wrong. -- Grishort Hurm

Vercingetorix -- You overrate yourself. -- Xaviora Yohl
