SPY REPORT
Much has changed in SOLVEN since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf Modeen
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Biff! Pow! SOLVEN
watched with glee as NEON TREES got knocked off top spot by RED SECTOR A! Hmmmph! I
always thought DOIN THEIR THING was an over-rated team and they proved it with a
0-0-0! Ya gotta be quick on yer feet! Keep your elbow off the table! Thrust!
Block out the pain! 249 BOURBON ST is now ranked 5th with a 1-0-0 turn. Some people
say I ramble too much, I don't say anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble.
Well RED SECTOR A moved up 1, to 1st. What's with WHEEZY? He actually beat
PROTECTORS' 790, and walked away with 18 more points from the fight. Major screwup
at MIDDLE WAY 15. MEBIAN lost 12 points to SLOW DRIP. Some new strategies, perhaps?
Maybe MEBIAN will provide more easy wins... Try as he might, ZEEK wasn't good enough
at persuading UNFINISHED to step down from the Duelmaster's throne... I suppose you
want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. The most avoided team was
THE REPUBLICANS. In my day, no team with a 562-546-31 would scare me off! What's
the problem, SNOT QUITE RIGHT? How well I know the feeling of being the most
challenged warrior, GIULIANI! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt
you. FIFI of PROTECTORS knows how to pick 'em. He challenged MEDAN of MIDDLE WAY 15
who is up by 20. Now was this a wise move? FIFI perhaps got his just desserts,
seeing as he was subdued by MEDAN and ended up with 28 recognition points.
Warriors of SOLVEN unite. You have only your games to lose! WIST looked pretty
sick and surprised when she learned PROTECTORS is sending her to the Dark Arena!
Whadd'she expect with a 6-14-0? BLACKBURN proved too determined for SGT
STERNUTATION. SGT STERNUTATION was lucky to go in the ring, with 6-4-0 to hers
credit. She will be remembered. SGT STERNUTATION found herself really over-matched
when she faced BLACKBURN. SGT STERNUTATION found herself grossly dead at the end of
the match. 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? The
end of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book! Remember--a good
fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Neon Trees -- Oh man, you guys completely destroyed my master plan by not playing last
turn! See, I was going to bloodfeud challenge Willow Reaver (who was Duelmaster at
the time) and beat him ('cause I had bribed the Arenamaster) and then I was going to
bloodfeud challenge Bam-Boo waaaay down in the Initiates and probably lose to him
because I'm not that good but then Bam-Boo would be Duelmaster at something like 4-0-1
which would be hilarious and all the old, crappy guys would be freaking out! Anyway,
that was the plan. Now, if you play this turn and Willow Reaver somehow beats
Unfinished the plan is back on but you need to forget that you read this, OK? Or at
least act surprised. -- Slow Drip
