SPY REPORT
Welcome JADE MOUNTAIN. I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the
fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... What's with
DEBBIE GREEN? She actually beat SAND DANCERS' KASTENMAR, and walked away with 20
more points from the fight. Major screwup at SAND DANCERS. KASTENMAR lost 14 points
to DEBBIE GREEN. Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe KASTENMAR will provide more
easy wins... SUNSET THUNDER was reminded on the sands why JAGUAR JON is Duelmaster.
Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!
If at first you don't succeed, avoid. That'll get you in the Spyreports. How
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team! Don't fall out of
practive, KIWI CONNECTIONS! In my day, no team with a 3-1-0 would scare me off!
What's the problem, GREATS OF TROY? What do people see in KORTO LU? His 14-44-1?
SAND DANCERS ain't talkin', but he's got 87 points.
Warriors of JADE MOUNTAIN 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!
Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt.
JADE MOUNTAIN is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. I
don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
Jaguar Jon -- Not exactly a surprise, and a nice restful match for both of us. --
Korto Lu
Debbie Green -- It's the season for mowing down the greens, so what could I do? --
Sunset Thunder
Rod Dedeaux -- I got the first blow and the last one, and nothing in between really
matters. -- Kastenmar
Downer -- A new face! But unfortunately (for me) not attached to a loser. Oh, well.
-- Lensi Tu
Queen -- (panting heavily) Not bad for a flatlander. -- Jandina
P.S. Oh, hey! The Commission says I'm irresistibly charismatic. How about coming
with me to find out what happens after dark down around the Market Square? I know
there are some eateries there.
Rod Dedeaux -- Looks like your manager's expectations didn't work out, so how about
we meet for a drink to drown your sorrows? -- Korto Lu
P.S. The Keystone is good.
Debbie Green -- I'm not going to the Isle, perish the thought! But I, too, am glad I
graduated. Even Jorja's glad, she says that "makes all ten styles from this arena."
As if I care! Join me for drink somewhere? -- Jade Ring
