SPY REPORT
You elder fighters surely remember me. The younger ones may call me Olaf
Modeen. I return to BLACKSTONE once again! Who can explain it? Not you, not me,
not OF WOLF AND MAN 5's opponents, after watching them shoot up the ranks from 18th
to 6th. You know what they say about the herd of lions who studied a judge...
PROJECT MAYHEM 34 moved up 22 places, to 7th. Who can explain it? Not you, not me,
not PROJECT MAYHEM 15's opponents, after watching them shoot up the ranks from 30th
to 8th. You know what they say about the herd of lions who studied a judge...
ROOKIE QUEEN 38 moved up 19 places, to 9th. Looking for a good fight, confident,
skilled, tough opponents. Well don't look at MEDAL OF HONOR GV, cause they dropped
by 16. Who can explain it? Not you, not me, not OF WOLF & MAN 24's opponents, after
watching them shoot up the ranks from 41st to 22nd. You know what they say about the
herd of lions who studied a judge... MEDAL OF HONOR J9 moved up 13 places, to 24th.
Ever take one of those association tests? You know, he says black, you say white.
Water-Lake, Sky-Blue. Try this: Flop. MEDAL OF HONOR O3! ROOKIE STYX 2 bit the big
one as they could not win. They dropped from 8th down to 32nd! Are you guy giving
lessons or what? Looking for a good fight, confident, skilled, tough opponents.
Well don't look at MEDAL OF HONOR 14C, cause they dropped by 13. What's with
OBSCENITY? He actually beat MEDAL OF HONOR 14C's CPT 1, and walked away with 30 more
points from the fight. Major screwup at BRITONS. BOUDICCA lost 28 points to PURIST.
Some new strategies, perhaps? Maybe BOUDICCA will provide more easy wins... I can
barely restrain my enthusiam for ROOKIE QUEEN 38's outstanding member, Duelmaster
BRIGHTON ROCK. 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? Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor. You
young rapscallions, take note!
Many other cities have retirement homes for aged warriors. Any plans here?
BLACKSTONE is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places. Time
for my medication, so I'll leave now. Practice, practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen

WICKED GREMLIN (84-6628) SOUL STEALERS
NAME CHANGE-O-RAMA
The gladiator known as Pretty in Pink Johnson came into the guildhouse in a
state of excitement that sat oddly on his large battered face. "There are goats on
the lawn outside the Commission office!"
His teammate Slinky Silver raised a languid eyebrow. "So?"
"That means a name-change coming! I can finally change my name to Pinkerton and
get some respect!"
"As badly as you fight, who will respect you?" his teammate asked.
"With a new name, I will fight better, just wait, you'll see. Because I will
respect myself!"
Slinky shook his head. "Circular reasoning won't help. You need more
managerial attention."
"If my name isn't embarrassing, I'll GET more attention.
Slinky shook his head again. "You're expecting a lot of a couple of goats that
may have been hired to manage the landscaping."
