                                      SPY REPORT

     You elder fighters surely remember me.  The younger ones may call me Olaf 
Modeen.  I return to KATI-TEI once again!  Hmmmph!  I always thought KILLERS was an 
over-rated team and they proved it with a 1-0-1!  Ya gotta be quick on yer feet!  
Keep your elbow off the table!  Thrust!  Block out the pain!  WRATHMEN 25-41 is now 
ranked 3rd with a 1-0-0 turn.  What's with BROKEN BRAKE LINE?  He actually beat 
NAWLINS RU2's TROLLEY, and walked away with 24 more points from the fight.  Major 
screwup at NAWLINS RU2.  TROLLEY lost 18 points to BROKEN BRAKE LINE.  Some new 
strategies, perhaps?  Maybe TROLLEY will provide more easy wins...  See how the 
Duelmaster Dark Arena Challenged DARK ARENA's HIGH ELF?  That sort of initiative is 
how he got where he is now.  Try as he might, HIGH ELF wasn't good enough at 
persuading JARCK MYSIR to step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Wouldn't it be 
nice to have live subjects to practice on?  I hear some team is looking into the uses 
of convicted prisoners.   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  KATI-TEI thinks KILLERS 
and their 129-147-20 is too much!  If at first you don't succeed, give up...  
Management must be dealin', as the boys at NAWLINS RU2 ain't reelin'!  KILLERS' mad!  
How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, ZULA!  Don't make 
idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.  I hate going to the effort of writing 
about the kind of fights that FRENCH QTR. gets in.  She fights people like HACHETTE, 
14 points below.  I thought FRENCH QTR. showed great skill and promise when she was 
overcame by HACHETTE.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     Warriors of KATI-TEI unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Who will dare 
fight JARCK MYSIR, after he returned from the Dark Arena?  (For the record 25-16-7 is 
98, and has he points) 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.  
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

Goodbye, Kati Tei.  Jarck Mysir graduated, and the other killers can't do anything 
right except kill NPC's.  I may be back.  For now, find me in Bonsur, Niania, Kolact, 
Homeguard, Talahya, and obviously, Primus.  Good luck and enjoy seeing Jarck Mysir, 
that prick, in the Dark Arena.
