                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of JADE MOUNTAIN!  Once again I've been called out of 
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  Bein' on top is great 
while it lasts, ZOMBIE SQUAD 6.  But how many friends do you have now?  Ya gotta be 
quick on yer feet!  Keep your elbow off the table!  Thrust!  Block out the pain!  
CRITICALS is now ranked 1st with a 2-0-0 turn.  What's with DEMONIC FURY?  He 
actually beat SAND DANCERS' STONECUTTER, and walked away with 15 more points from the 
fight.  Major screwup at ZOMBIE SQUAD 6.  JILES lost 6 points to YOAKUM BEDE.  Some 
new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe JILES will provide more easy wins...  I'm sure JADE 
MOUNTAIN is excited about FELLING POWER, the new Duelmaster from CRITICALS.  
(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!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  What do people see in 
STONECUTTER?  His 12-9-0?  SAND DANCERS ain't talkin', but he's got 45 points.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  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!  Time for my 
medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

                                     PERSONAL ADS

We salute the tourney participants. -- Sand Dancers

Eddie Gordo -- I lucked out on that.  Jorja would've insisted I do a "column" instead 
of just a personal.  I'm not sure I can tell the difference, but a personal is easier. 
-- Yoakum Bede

Felling Power -- It says I nearly died.  That's not supporting a sense of community.  
With a little bad luck, Jorja might send me adventuring so I can REALLY die.  I don't 
want to. -- Jo Ming

Lawyers don't belong in the arena.  Maybe in the hall afterward chasing ambulances or 
filing suits. -- Stonecutter

Demonic Fury -- Of course you're an orc.  Type casting.  I shudder to think what kind 
of story Jorja would put you into. -- Hound of the Hills

Warriors and Managers of Jade Mountain -- Jorja here.  I *like* writing fiction for 
the newsletters, and I'm *going* to do it, whether you want to participate or not.  In 
the absence of any clues beyond the warrior and team names, I'm going to establish 
characters for the warriors we face and write about them.  Feel free to make comment.  
If you don't want your warriors involved, a statement to that effect in the newsletter 
will stop me.  If you want input but not to write a personal, send me a diplo, or ask 
CSR for my email address.  Your involvement would be welcome. -- Jorja
