                                      SPY REPORT

     Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills?  Well 
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for JADE MOUNTAIN.  Like, HEROS OF HAGUS had 
to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by JADED WARRIORS!  Way to go 
JADED WARRIORS!  MVP award for MILES?  THE B TEAM's proud of him after beating 
GUARDSMAN TAN and getting 11 points.  Talk about yer major upsets!  LADY CHAO's match 
with JADE MASTER cost her a loss of 8 points!  What a putz!  COLD STEEL fights so 
hard to be Duelmaster, then quits fighting and loses the title.  No one said he was a 
genius...  Was that a tear I saw in HAN KI's eye, as he took over Duelmastership?  
And wasn't CAPTAIN MONDINOR fit to be tied!  Who was the wiseguy that said JADE 
MOUNTAIN's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Green Axe?  Don't look at me!   
     I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies.  Really, I just 
wing this stuff.  The warriors of EASTERN HORDE 2 must be getting lonely.  They were 
the most avoided team.  Do you guys know something that I don't?  Hhmph!  What kind 
of warriors are JADED WARRIORS?  EASTERN HORDE 2, an easy team to beat if I ever saw 
one, can't get them to accept an invitation!  Can EASTERN HORDE 2's CROWBAR be more 
popular than me?  He was challenged the most, but is that really the same?   
     Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other!  Don't you guys ever give 
it a break?  D'ya think TOMTOM is feeling guilty for killing JADED WARRIORS' 
CHEWBACCA, a mere boy?  Naah, I doubt it.  It was so gross when TOMTOM of HEROS OF 
HAGUS killed CHEWBACCA.  They should start making warriors use safer weapons, or more 
shields, or something...  Fight, fight, fight.  Is that all you guys can do?   
     I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid.  Who would've guessed I'd be 
a famous Spyreporter?  I gotta leave.  JADE MOUNTAIN is like such a dump, and you 
guys smell too much!  Remember you guys, ease up sometimes!  Chill out!  Later, Debby 
Tonte
