SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of XOCHITHLAN! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Woof! WACKY were a
bunch of dogs after KIWI CONNECTION got through with 'em! 1st ain't so sweet as 2nd!
What's with COLLINGWOOD? He actually beat THE MIDDLE WAY's XYOKOR YAHL, and walked
away with 8 more points from the fight. Major screwup at THE MIDDLE WAY. SAML TYNE
lost 3 points to RIRORNI HORSEMAN. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe SAML TYNE
will provide more easy wins... DEELA ELLIS was reminded on the sands why D'URVILLE
is Duelmaster. I suppose you want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your
fellow fighters? Tough!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...
Warriors of XOCHITHLAN unite. You have only your games to lose! Is it my
imagination, or are fighters getting younger every day? To die so young, so
gloriously!
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. Are you
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it
before you read it. Oh, well. Time for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice,
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
D'Urville -- Well, I guess it's fair enough that the Duelmaster should want a real
fight. I wouldn't even mind, except that you won! I find that so annoying. -- Deela
Ellis
P.S. Good fight, actually.
Collingwood -- You remind me of my dentist, which does not make me feel all warm and
fuzzy. -- Xyokor Yahl
P.S. But you're even meaner than he is. Ouch.
Whakapapa -- I wish you'd go connect with a kiwi and leave off beating us up. But
unfortunately, we aren't fast enough off the mark to discourage you properly. --
Rennor Simm
P.S. And it isn't like there are all that many other opponents, though with a new
team, we can hope.
Bunny -- Rabbit stew, my favorite. -- Saml Tyne
P.S. With dumplings.
A salute to the gladiators of Xochithlan who entered the tourney. And may you have
better luck next time. -- Jorja and the Middle Way
