SPY REPORT
Greetings, warriors of SHADOWSPIRE! Once again I've been called out of
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting. Bein' on top is great
while it lasts, THE WILLBURYS II. But how many friends do you have now? Hmmmph! I
always thought SUMMERBORN was an over-rated team and they proved it with a 3-2-0! Up
'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be...
Well, CLAN LONGBEARD's 1st moved them up to 4-1-0 place. Some people say I ramble
too much, I don't say anything relevant. I repeat myself. I ramble. Well CULT OF
BACCHUS moved up 5, to 4th. What's with JULIETTE? She actually beat LA PENTARCHIE's
MOLLUSQUOME, and walked away with 19 more points from the fight. Major screwup at
FOOD. BRUSSEL SPROUTS lost 19 points to SUMNER. Some new strategies, perhaps?
Maybe BRUSSEL SPROUTS will provide more easy wins... I can barely restrain my
enthusiam for WARMASTERS' outstanding member, Duelmaster MAXENTIUS. I suppose you
want to hear some rumors and dirty gossip about your fellow fighters? Tough!
Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges... SHADOWSPIRE thinks CULT
OF BACCHUS and their 167-138-7 is too much! If at first you don't succeed, give
up... In my day, no team with a 163-137-6 would scare me off! What's the problem,
DARQUE AGES? What do people see in JAKLAK? His 24-17-0? CLAN LONGBEARD ain't
talkin', but he's got 94 points. KNUT SUNDERHELM didn't quite know what to make of a
challenge he received from ODDJOB of BOND-AGE, who is 24 points below him. ODDJOB
perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he subdued KNUT SUNDERHELM and ended up with
83 recognition points.
A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing. Some fighters
don't accept this. The best do. Hmm... More surprises must remain in store for me,
if ANGEROO can return from the Dark Arena. I like to see warriors put young
whippersnappers in their place. I guess you could say CULT OF BACCHUS'GIGI DIVINE
did just that. Right FURRY FURY? SNOW SQUIRREL found himself really over-matched
when he faced GIGI DIVINE. SNOW SQUIRREL found himself grossly dead at the end of
the match. TROLL HAND was plum wore out after GLABRIO pounded 'im silly in a
Bloodfeud. SAVAGE HORDE'll have to get a little better before going after GLABRIO
again! How long have I been here? I got people to see, places to go...
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

The "weak but cute" trick has been a very successful attempt to bring back our
scentered splendors! -- LP
Now I will say "cute but weak"! Zoum is very lazy and will be pleased to welcome all
the gals around the throne. Deadly Rage just loves my guys. -- LP
Incredible... my bloodiest turn ever in Shadowspire! Sorry and condolences, it's
really the place where I do NOT want to kill... -- Le Pentarque
I will regret you, my friends! I was supposed to die young in the Dark place and you
gave me a splendid career under the sun! Why crappy me, and not worthier ones? Who
knows? Time to work on my garedening skills. -- Five
Nicely done, Ziggy. Your style will no more be a despised one. French doors are
sure unknown in France, DeGotti! -- Le Pentarque
Close one, Redfang! Would I be getting lucky at least? -- Ingrat
Boooooooooo to Junebug for not writing an column! -- DeGotti
Boooooooooo to everyone but Hawk for not writing ads! -- DeGotti
Charkor -- Tough to match up with someone who has 9 more FE than you! -- DeGotti
Jaklak -- I didn't think anyone could take that many BA hits and live! Thanks for
making Baltaire the most popular last turn and the skills! -- DeGotti
Snow Squirrel -- You are a tough little guy to bring down! Salute to you and Grimm
for training you so well! -- DeGotti
Tee Hee Johnson -- If only Meda had a bit more init I might have stolen that fight
from you! -- DeGotti
Impressive wave of graduates this turn! Congrats to you all. -- DeGotti
INGRAT -- I had you desperate, feel free to challenge me again. -- Redfang

Degotti -- Not another turn of BF'ing. Well, teach me some good skills this time,
will you. -- Snow Squirrel
Congrats to all the Graduates. -- Grimm
Martiln -- We shall meet again. -- the mighty Hare Binger
Troll Hand -- I suppose I should thank you. I told myself that if Pelagius lost
again, he'd be going to the DA the following turn. By killing him, you saved me the
hassle. Despite the favor, I intend to bloodfeud. See you on the sands! -- Vanek,
Manager of Warmasters
Ziggy Pike -- Well, well, well...do my eyes deceive me? Did a Piker just take the
title for a second time? Nice work despite the marginal record. -- Vanek
DeGotti -- Welcome back! -- Vanek
DeGotti -- I've been sending in personal ads and HAL has been eating them. I sent
these directly to Jorja, so they should be good to go. -- Master Darque
P.S. Enjoy that Parry rating. It's better than what I have been getting lately.
Failed Dog Trick -- Not how I expected to win that one, but I'll take it. -- Lady
Godiva
Tossed Salad -- It was worth a try, but no luck. -- Julian of Norwich
Tom Wolfe -- That was our fourth meeting. It is 3-1 my favor. Care to do it again
until one of us leaves this place on a boat or in a pine box? -- Charles Martel
Eborius -- Our teams have been matching up a lot lately. I'm not really sure how to
avoid it either. -- Tamerlane
WellaWellaWelluh -- Boy, is that a work out for the voice. It was equally one on the
sands. Good show! -- The Black Prince
Great Goblin -- Yes, looks like I turn it around at the end. Not sure I want to win
all of my fights that way, but it's a start. -- The Black Prince
Graduates -- I'll have to double check, but I think that is the largest graduating
class we have ever had in Shadowspire. Congrats to all of you and your managers. --
Master Darque and the Darque Ages guild.
