                                      SPY REPORT

     You elder fighters surely remember me.  The younger ones may call me Olaf 
Modeen.  I return to LYRATILAN once again!  Up 'n down.  Up 'n down.  Rankings always 
change.  Up 'n down.  I think I'm gonna be...  Well, THE BLUES 25's 5th moved them up 
to 4-1-0 place.  GONE COUNTRY showed LYRATILAN what they were made of as they fought 
with a vengeance to walk off with 4-1-0.  Major screwup at NEON GRATITUDE.  OBRIGADO 
lost 18 points to GARTH BROOKS.  Some new strategies, perhaps?  Maybe OBRIGADO will 
provide more easy wins...  Another fighter (BIG MOJO ELEM 12-17-2) challenged another 
Duelmaster (JADE 16-10-0).  Life goes on.  Try as he might, BIG MOJO ELEM wasn't good 
enough at persuading JADE to step down from the Duelmaster's throne...  Advice to 
fighters with a 1 will--give up fighting!   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  How well I know the 
feeling of being in the most avoided team!  Don't fall out of practive, WORKING 
GIRLS!  Management must be dealin', as the boys at GONE COUNTRY ain't reelin'!  
WORKING GIRLS' mad!  What do people see in MORGAN WALLEN?  His 4-4-0?  GONE COUNTRY 
ain't talkin', but he's got 49 points.  BLACK IS THE NIGHT didn't quite know what to 
make of a challenge he received from ROY ROGERS of THE BLUES 25, who is 22 points 
below him.  ROY ROGERS perhaps got his just desserts, seeing as he overcame BLACK IS 
THE NIGHT and ended up with 24 recognition points.   
     Warriors of LYRATILAN unite.  You have only your games to lose!  Here's some 
advice:  study your opponent, master many skills, fight dirty.   
     Well, I'm pretty much through.  You guys need to get back practicing.  LYRATILAN 
is a nice place to live, but I don't like to live in nice places.  Remember--a good 
fighter needs both good skills and good luck.  Until next time,-- Olaf Modeen
