                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of ARUAK CITY!  Once again I've been called out of 
retirement for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  Biff!  Pow!  ARUAK CITY 
watched with glee as ROHAN got knocked off top spot by THE MYRMIDONS!  Ya gotta be 
quick on yer feet!  Keep your elbow off the table!  Thrust!  Block out the pain!  
BULLDOGS is now ranked 2nd with a 4-1-0 turn.  What's with LIL' ED WILLIAMS?  He 
actually beat ROHAN's EVERMIND, and walked away with 16 more points from the fight.  
Major screwup at ROHAN.  THEODEN KING lost 7 points to LOSER.  Some new strategies, 
perhaps?  Maybe THEODEN KING will provide more easy wins...  Try as he might, STRAW 
SEAL wasn't good enough at persuading AISLING NOON to step down from the Duelmaster's 
throne...  Advice to fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     If at first you don't succeed, avoid.  That'll get you in the Spyreports.  How 
well I know the feeling of being in the most avoided team!  Don't fall out of 
practive, THE BLUES!  Management must be dealin', as the boys at ANIMAL FARM ain't 
reelin'!  THE BLUES' mad!  How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged 
warrior, THANATOS!  Don't make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.  
THANATOS didn't quite know what to make of a challenge he received from COOTIE STARK 
of THE BLUES, who is 18 points below him.  COOTIE STARK perhaps got his just 
desserts, seeing as he was defeated by THANATOS and ended up with 82 recognition 
points.   
     Warriors of ARUAK CITY unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Hmm...  More 
surprises must remain in store for me, if CORNERED WEASEL can return from the Dark 
Arena.  HUNGRY LIONESS looked pretty sick and surprised when she learned TOTEMS OF 
RAGE is sending her to the Dark Arena!  Whadd'she expect with a 12-10-0?  Sending a 
warrior to the Dark Arena reminds the others they'd better shape up.  Tough beans, 
FRENZIED SQUID.  That's what a 10-8-1 gets you.  PISSY PORCUPINE looked pretty sick 
and surprised when she learned TOTEMS OF RAGE is sending her to the Dark Arena!  
Whadd'she expect with a 5-6-2?  Yeah, yeah, ACHILLES II killed HAMA, who was "too 
young to die."  Well, he was a fighter, and that's what you have to face.  Someone 
told CEPHEUS that THE BLUES never Bloodfeuded, that he'd have an easy kill.  Well, 
I'm sure whoever misled you is right sorry.  Is it my imagination, or are fighters 
getting younger every day?  To die so young, so gloriously!   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  Are you 
as tired of reading this as I am of writing it?  Actually, I guess I'm writing it 
before you read it.  Oh, well.  Time for my medication, so I'll leave now.  Practice, 
practice, practice!-- Olaf Modeen
