                                      SPY REPORT

     Welcome NOBLISH ISLAND.  I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well.  Many the 
fights have I fought here.  The celebrations, the disappointments...  What's with 
SPOILED?  He actually beat NOBLISH ISLAND's THE USEROUS MERCHANT, and walked away 
with 19 more points from the fight.  Laughs were big at PLANETARY FORCES while they 
watched ROTATION clobber HUGS.  She lost 4 points and got bruised from objects thrown 
from the stands.  I'm sure NOBLISH ISLAND is excited about COLD, the new Duelmaster 
from BASH BROS SUPPER.  (remember?)  But when you've seen as many as I have...  
Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on?  I hear some team is 
looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.   
     No matter the time or place, men will always duel.  NOBLISH ISLAND thinks BASH 
BROS SUPPER and their 15-10-2 is too much!  If at first you don't succeed, give up... 
Management must be dealin', as the boys at PLANETARY FORCES ain't reelin'!  BASH BROS 
SUPPER's mad!  What do people see in BURNED?  His 3-2-0?  BASH BROS SUPPER ain't 
talkin', but he's got 11 points.  Keep challenging up 26 points, OIL, and I won't 
have to write about you much longer.  BURNED always accepts those kind of 
challenges...  Sometimes what you expect to do (like in the fights) doesn't expect to 
turn out like you thought.  OIL overcame BURNED.  It don't make sense.   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  MUSHY was plum wore out after INCOME TAXES pounded 
'im silly in a Bloodfeud.  BASH BROS SUPPER'll have to get a little better before 
going after INCOME TAXES again!  MUSHY larned his lesson (INCOME TAXES taught it 
well), and we right likely won't be seein' 'im fight any DON'T AVOID US members with 
the same gusto.  How long have I been here?  I got people to see, places to go...   
     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
