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
JADE LOTUS? She actually beat CRITICALS' DEADLY FORCE, and walked away with 14 more
points from the fight. Laughs were big at SAND DANCERS while they watched JADE LOTUS
clobber DEADLY FORCE. He lost 9 points and got bruised from objects thrown from the
stands. I'm sure JADE MOUNTAIN is excited about JADE LOTUS, the new Duelmaster from
SAND DANCERS. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... I suppose you
want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
No matter the time or place, men will always duel.
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.
The end of another Spyreport! That's cause for celebration in my book! Remember--a
good fighter needs both good skills and good luck. Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen

PERSONAL ADS
All -- While I wouldn't necessarily call it amazing, OT should be plentiful at work
for the next few months, so I decided to stay active here, at least for a bit. I
haven't, however, run this plan past the Secretary of the Treasury (better to ask
forgiveness than permission, and all that) so I may be on a turn-by-turn basis. --
Guido
Jorja and the Sand Dancers -- Thank you! -- Teaser
Jade Lotus -- Yeah, I'm thinking I need to stick with what works. Not to say you
wouldn't beat me, anyway, but Guido's been "tweaking" again... -- Nareen
Winter Rose -- Ouch! You hit pretty hard with that little thing. -- Nareen
Angel -- Sure, take all your angst out on me. And skills weren't exactly plentiful,
either. -- Archenax
Stone Hammer -- I'd try one made of steel, personally. -- Melrose
Grus -- So, I couldn't hear the arena announcer. How do you pronounce your name? --
Whetmore
Guido -- I do hope you return, though I understand your concerns. It makes a
difference to have someone to talk to. -- Jorja
Nareen -- Wives! You just can't explain things to them. -- Jade Lotus
P.S. Funny, I never thought of myself as a home-wrecking femme fatale, but there's a
strange, almost perverse attraction to it.
A one-four turn, not something to boast about. Still, we all survived it. A sad
farewell to False Overtures. -- Winter Rose, for the Sand Dancers
The Fall Mail-In Tourney is DUE on the 30th of October and will run on November
2nd. Turns received later than the 30th may not get input.
