SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of STORMCROWE! 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! JESTER'S BROOD
is now ranked 2nd with a 5-0-0 turn. What's with DAN MACK GRU? He actually beat
MUTANT HAMMERZ's ANGEL HAMMER, and walked away with 23 more points from the fight.
Laughs were big at ARCTIC WASTES while they watched TUNDRA clobber AUNTY ENTITY. She
lost 18 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands. SHADOWCAT HAMMER
was reminded on the sands why RAGGEDY ANN is Duelmaster. Wouldn't it be nice to have
live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted
prisoners.
No matter the time or place, men will always duel. How well I know the feeling
of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, ARCTIC WASTES! The
bums at DARQUE FORCES couldn't face the challenges from ARCTIC WASTES! No excuse for
that! How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, BEAST
HAMMER! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you. THE BRIDE expects
the easy win by going 19 points down. BEAST HAMMER will find this a hard lesson! I
have to get this off my chest. What a low dog, THE BRIDE! She can't set herself up
in a real match. I was sorry to see BEAST HAMMER lose. FROSTBITE didn't quite know
what to make of a challenge she received from YUFFIE of DARQUE FORCES, who is 21
points below her. YUFFIE perhaps got hers just desserts, seeing as she beat
FROSTBITE and ended up with 64 recognition points.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You
young rapscallions, take note!
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
STORMCROWE is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.
Remember--a good fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,--
Olaf Modeen

I have not been receiving my physical turns in a reliable manner lately. If there
are diplos with the turns that go missing, they're gone for good. So if you send me
a diplo and do not see an acknowledgement of receipt in the personals, know that I
have not gotten it (yet). If you have email, contact me at Livia AT reality DOT com.
If you don't have email, keep trying with the diplos. We are working on this
problem. -- the Scribe/Jorja/Leeta
P.S. If you email me, put "Re DM" on the subject line.
