                                      SPY REPORT

     You elder fighters surely remember me.  The younger ones may call me Olaf 
Modeen.  I return to JADE MOUNTAIN once again!  What's with VICIOUS SLASH?  He 
actually beat SAND DANCERS' MEADOWLARK, and walked away with 23 more points from the 
fight.  Major screwup at SAND DANCERS.  LADY CHAO lost 9 points to NEO NOIR.  Some 
new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe LADY CHAO will provide more easy wins...  Apparently 
JADE MOUNTAIN isn't filled with as many gutless wonders as I thought.  The Dreaded 
Duelmaster got 2 challenges this turn!  Another fighter (QUIET LONER 11-4-0) 
challenged another Duelmaster (BARRELS 18-10-1).  Life goes on.  I'm sure JADE 
MOUNTAIN is excited about QUIET LONER, the new Duelmaster from SWORD FOR HIRE.  
(remember?)  But when you've seen as many as I have...  Advice to fighters with a 1 
will--give up fighting!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...   
     There have been some calls to lengthen the time limit.  Do you want the fighters 
to walk away, or not?  MEADOWLARK, with hers forgettable 10-11-0,  was killed by 
VICIOUS SLASH in a forgettable match.  SAND DANCERS didn't seem to mind very much.  
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.  
All work and no play makes Olaf a dull fighter.  Work and play no fighter dull Olaf.  
Olaffighterwork and no play.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

Barrels -- Unfortunately, the third time wasn't the charm.  Close, but no charm.  
Become more charming, please. -- Jina tyl Ray 

Meadowlark -- It was that lone fan in the stands that said, "Come on, Quiet Loner, you 
can do it!" that drove me to victory.  I think her name is Loud Extrovert. -- Quiet 
Loner

Lady Chao -- The footing is slippery when combating the peril that is Black Ice. -- 
Black Ice 

Talk to Death -- I see, or rather heard, why you were sent into arena fighting.  You 
sure do talk a lot of "smack" don't you?  How dare you curse my family and my 
guildhouse. -- Neo Noir

Han Ki -- The Han may be mightier than the sword, but it's not mightier than my war 
hammer.  If you think this joke was lame, just wait till next week. -- Gothic
