So what's the story on 107? No hidden FE or prizes to enter, and tourney means exile to another ADM arena?

It is not just no hidden FE, but NO tournaments, NO prizes, and exile if you run in the tourney. I will have to verify with Lee, but I thought she mentioned the warrior would be locked until splits if it ran in tournaments while in 107. Or to put it another way, it couldn't run in 107 but it also wouldn't be able to transfer until a regular ADM split.

Please enforce the no tourney policy as I have seen it worded in such a way to imply no hidden FE .... We dont need guys trying to die in ADM so they can match their record to their FE to skirt the no tourney rule. thank you.

I would think those would be disallowed as well. They are DYO and essentially tourney prizes themselves (you have to special order their RU's; only the top 3 make it; and this only occurs at tournaments).
2-2! I am not sure how much longer I can stand running a bad BA here but we will see lol.

I kind of expect more people here. There was so much talk of support.
I may add a few of my guys to get the population up, but most of them are semi-terrible.

I didn't run this turn because my stuff didn't make it in on time (verified with Sandy it was late). I kept waiting for my Turn 1 to come in and apparently waited too long. Will be there next turn hopefully if my stuff has made it yet.
37 warriors fought this turn. Jim/Suave (Center for Olds, etc.) added 10 veteran no-tourney warriors, so that should add some stiff competition for everyone.
I issued the only two challenges this turn.
You no tourney guys better step it up!

I was pumped to see Suave in there!
Hopefully it will be more next time (fights and challenges)! I always actively manage my warriors (e.g. tweak them) but I usually hold off on challenges in ADM until I get a feel for the arena and where my guys actually stand on the totem of development.

I will likely start challenging this turn. I was on vacation (without ability to mail in strats) and it's ADM, so I just let my guys run on maintenance. Conveniently, this and DM 3 were the only arenas I had to worry about for sending in turnsheets.
However, I'm not sure I can challenge next turn, since most of my warriors are not ranked

They can still issue challenges even if they can't be seen in the NL.

A quick search of my database revealed only nine warriors eligible for 107, and most of them suck or got awful favorites.

Welcome to the club in 107 where our motto is, "If we were better warriors we would be participating in tournaments!"
