                                      SPY REPORT

     Much has changed in VALAMANTIS since last I was here.  Never fear, Olaf Modeen 
adapts to many situations, as do all successful fighters.  What's with PUNCH DRUNK?  
He actually beat STRIKER FORCE's AUXILIARY, and walked away with 14 more points from 
the fight.  Laughs were big at ALTERED STATES while they watched PUNCH DRUNK clobber 
AUXILIARY.  He lost 2 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the stands.  
Try as he might, VENOMOUS CONCUBINE wasn't good enough at persuading BETA EQUULEI to 
step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects 
to practice on?  I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  
VALAMANTIS thinks STRIKER FORCE and their 300-207-16 is too much!  If at first you 
don't succeed, give up...  The bums at ALTERED STATES couldn't face the challenges 
from STRIKER FORCE!  No excuse for that!  What do people see in AUXILIARY?  His 
1-3-0?  STRIKER FORCE ain't talkin', but he's got 14 points.   
     Warriors of VALAMANTIS unite.  You have only your games to lose!  How long have 
I been here?  I got people to see, places to go...   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  The end 
of another Spyreport!  That's cause for celebration in my book!  Time for my 
medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

                                     PERSONAL ADS

Of course the fans cheered wildly.  No one likes the Userous Merchant. -- Pamela Rose

Delta Equulei -- Uneven, but it was uneven in my favor.  I like that. -- Louis Ohia

It's just WRONG that a standby should defeat me that easily.  I'm thinking malign 
magics at work here. -- Pete Moss

Yeah, in my fight, too. -- Neosha Palmer

Punch Drunk -- Yeah, and you punched holes in me.  Good fight. -- Marina Quinn

Beta Equulei -- Of course I didn't give it my best effort.  They wouldn't have let ME 
have title. -- Karogedh of Rithakar, Mercenary

Epsilon Equulei -- This whole town discriminates against me.  It is seriously unfair, 
but I suppose no more than I should expect. -- Molgisse Redbeard, skilled concubine 
and cross-dresser

Pamela Rose -- See if I ever sell YOU anything at a good price. -- Chelous Tiram, 
modestly usurious merchant

Pete Moss -- Take that!  How good would you be out in the forest, eh? -- Morfain 
Greenwood, Guardsman

Neosha Palmer -- How about dinner? -- Al 'Sinj, tall, blond, and dangerous, but not 
really a criminal

Auxiliary -- We appreciate you not killing your opponent.  Good beggars can be hard to 
find. -- Sigrimor, Master of Beggars
