SPY REPORT
Much has changed in NIYTYOLE HOLD since last I was here. Never fear, Olaf
Modeen adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters. Biff! Pow!
NIYTYOLE HOLD watched with glee as LAND OF OZ got knocked off top spot by BAD BEATS!
Phhbltt! Too much drinking and too little dodging gave CHEERS a 0-0-0! I got a good
laugh out of it! Ya gotta be quick on yer feet! Keep your elbow off the table!
Thrust! Block out the pain! SPECTRAL STEEL is now ranked 9th with a 1-0-0 turn.
What's with ACE MERRILL? He actually beat BAD BEATS' THAT'S POKER, and walked away
with 20 more points from the fight. Major screwup at LAND OF OZ. HUMBUG lost 15
points to DATABASE EDITOR. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe HUMBUG will provide
more easy wins... Apparently NIYTYOLE HOLD isn't filled with as many gutless wonders
as I thought. The Dreaded Duelmaster got 5 challenges this turn! See how the
Duelmaster challenged WEIRD ALCHEMY's FAST EEEK? That sort of initiative is how he
got where he is now. FAST EEEK was reminded on the sands why ONE TIME! 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.
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... How well I know the
feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of practive, CHEERS! The
bums at LAND OF OZ couldn't face the challenges from CHEERS! No excuse for that!
GOLDEN CAP didn't quite know what to make of a challenge it received from BLINDING
MAN of BIG LAKE GROOVE, who is 21 points below it. BLINDING MAN perhaps got his just
desserts, seeing as he was bested by GOLDEN CAP and ended up with 90 recognition
points. I hate going to the effort of writing about the kind of fights that MARATHON
MAN gets in. He fights people like MADCAP, 9 points below. I thought MARATHON MAN
showed great skill and promise when he won victory over MADCAP. All right, so I
slept through it! Big deal!
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? 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. NIYTYOLE
HOLD 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

A salute to Duelmaster Bad Beat. -- Oz The All Praising
What a fine and enjoyable FTF it was in KC. The fellowship was terrific as the right
mix of managers were there in person. It helped that the riff-raff stayed home. -- Oz
The All Truthful
Hobo Casserole, I was hungry; you made my day. -- Golden Cap
Belisarius, I enjoyed the tussle. Luckily I won it on heart and skill rather than by
brains. You think? -- Brains
Blinding, ho hum. -- Munchkin
Don Quixote, I say "uncle". Maybe even uncle, uncle, uncle. -- Humbug
Den the Dump, what an ugly and despicable thing to say the Ziggy, Ni Gul, Lulu or any
newbies to our competition. Perhaps you should take your bacon and mosey on home?
What a scuzzball you are. -- Oz The All Disgusted
Ziggy, Ni Gul, Lulu, we, and many other teams, welcome you to North Fork. It is such
a pleasure to have newcomers. I salute you. Try not to let the riff raff get you
down. -- Oz The All Greeting (Consortium affiliated)
Health. Humility. Honor. -- Oz The All Philosophical

I am undertaking a fiction-writing project on the Patreon website, under my own name
of Judith Solberg. It isn't the kind of story I might put in the newsletter, but I
think some of you might enjoy it. I don't know how much you can see if you just
cruise by, but they tell me it's up and open. -- Jorja
