Well, Black Eye, that's what you get when you fall on your face. Try falling

SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of ERINIKA! Once again I've been called out of retirement
for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Biff! Pow! ERINIKA watched with
glee as KIWI CONNECTION got knocked off top spot by MIDDLE WAY 18! Phhbltt! Too
much drinking and too little dodging gave BLACK & BLUE a 0-1-0! I got a good laugh
out of it! Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think
I'm gonna be... Well, BLACKMAIL's 2nd moved them up to 2-0-0 place. What's with
SKIN PEELER? He actually beat FOUND IN THE SAND's BURIED TREASURE, and walked away
with 29 more points from the fight. Laughs were big at MIDDLE WAY 18 while they
watched NOLAN MARRIK clobber THOMAS. He lost 9 points and got bruised from objects
thrown from the stands. Try as he might, BLACK EYE wasn't good enough at persuading
LAELKORISSA 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. The
most avoided team was PLAY BALL. The bums at FOUND IN THE SAND couldn't face the
challenges from PLAY BALL! No excuse for that! How well I know the feeling of being
the most challenged warrior, GORDON! Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to
haunt you.
There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit. Do you want the fighters
to walk away, or not? Here's some advice: study your opponent, master many skills,
fight dirty.
Well, I'm pretty much through. You guys need to get back practicing. ERINIKA
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
