                                      SPY REPORT

     Good day, in NIANIA a quiet thief gets rich, but a quiet spymaster gets poor.  
So bring me ale and harken to my tidbits of news.  MASTERS OF SAND stable has 
parlayed this turn's 2-0-0 into a 4 space move up the rankings.  This brings them up 
to 2nd place.  Good work, guys!  And let's see, DOLOVOR fought IRON GYPSY and gained 
15 points and contributed to THE GOLDEN FISH's 3-2-0.  IRON GYPSY has lost to 
DOLOVOR, falling 11 points, while helping make TEAM HAVOK a 1-4-0 turn.  And all eyes 
were on PAUL ATREIDES this turn as he ascended to the throne of Duelmaster.  NIANIA 
has a new victor!  By the way, was that our Duelmaster that I saw last night, cramped 
under the table at Jim's Tap Room?   
     He who challenges well, fights well.  He who avoids without cause, shall lose 
for good reasons.  My mama told me that one.  I also notice that the THE GOLDEN FISH 
stable was the most avoided team this turn.  Come on NIANIA, what are you afraid of?  
And avoiding THE GOLDEN FISH more than any other team we find TEAM HAVOK.  NIANIA, 
are we going to accept, or respect this sort of thing?  The most challenged warrior 
this turn was THE GOLDEN FISH's warrior KORONEDUS.  More fighters challenged him than 
challenged the Duelmaster!  Building dreams on hope, HAND OF GOD challenged up 30 
points this turn to take on PITER DEVRIES from MASTERS OF SAND stable.  Sad to say, 
HAND OF GOD lost to PITER DEVRIES, and the attempt ended up costing HAND OF GOD 1 
recognition points.   
     A coward dies a thousand deaths, a brave man only once.  Wise men know this to 
be true.  SWEETS has some questions to answer.  Like 'why did you kill your fighter, 
ECLAIR, who had a record of 2-0-1?' Hearty mugs of ale were raised in NIANIA today as 
VENDETTA was bid farewell to a 10-3-1 warrior, with EJ DOME of OUT THE WINDOW 
standing silent and pensive.  A brave warrior does not carry a red shield, he has 
nothing to cover or hide when the fight is over.  Consider well.   
     I like this place, NIANIA, the taverns have old wine, and young serving girls.  
Who could ask for more?  Always good to rest in NIANIA, but never good to wear out my 
welcome.  Look for me in future turns.  Until the sun next rises and my pen sets to 
paper-- Alarond the Scribe

Vendetta -- Hmm, vendetta...havok.  Yes, I see the connection.  You humans go in for
it a lot, from what I've observed.  It needs tempering, though.  Not every instance
of, well, insult and injury, I suppose, calls for a full vendetta, yes?  It's the old
"pick your battles," thing.  We of the swamp understand this.  I'm sure you can learn
it, if you try.  Come on by my place--not the guildhouse, I have a little place of my
own down on the shore--and I'll give you lessons, eh? -- Koronedus

Hand of Hell -- I would like to see that hand tied behind your back! -- Dolovor
P.S.  Seeing as how your other hand is just an ordinary human hand and I'd at least
have a CHANCE of beating it.
P.P.S.  Thanks for the skills.  I needed those.

Yukio Okutsu -- You always confuse me.  I keep thinking you should be female,
probably exotic besides, and you keep being a big, mean, Shewish trouble-maker of a
guy.  It's hard. -- Gallordin

Osksi Noble?  (pause to check the program)  That's Wellondry, right?  Or maybe I
should say, it WAS Wellondry.  (cackle)  We swamp dwellers have never liked the
Osksians, you know.  Oh, sure, you haven't ever been as bad as the Karnhorns (cursed
be their name), but you've never accepted us as equals in the world, either.  So eat
that steel and choke on it. -- Sarovond
P.S.  The reason I bother to write a personal to a dead man is that I know you will
be resurrected as part of your contract with the arena.  Ha!  Resurrected to fight
and die again and again and again!  It is a fit punishment.  I love it.

Oh, cheese.  This must be our day to kill standbys.  I didn't mean to do it, honest!
Not because I like or admire the damned Beggar, you understand, but I don't HATE him,
either.  He's a nuisance, the way he never gives up trying to get a donation, but I
'spect it seemed like a good line of work to him when he went into it.  Maybe he
didn't have a choice...?  Nah, of course he had a choice!  There are always choices.
Still, I'll buy him a hangover cure when he comes back from the resurrection. --
Harolue

Gallordin -- Well, buy me dinner and I'll try to teach it to you.  But I'm not sure
you can learn.  You've got it all so easy, being on a regular team and all. -- Biff
Mugg, Late of Mordant

Koroneduss -- That iss remarkably asstute of you. -- Ssothiss, Asssasssin of Note,
with enemiess

Harolue -- I have SUCH a headache after that!  And it's all your fault. -- Ressero,
Certified Beggar, Born Again

Sarovond -- That is just what I would expect of one of you treacherous swamp beasts!
-- Wellondry of Osksi

Piter Devries -- See if you EVER collect on your insurance again, you fiend! -- Arena
Insurance Salesman

15 managers have announced for the Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse!!!!!!  There is still 
time to join and make a name for yourself in one of Alastari's fiercest contests!  I 
must correct a mistake in the previous announcement.  I incorrectly called it the 
Slaughterhouse 2, but in reality, this will be the third installment of the 
Slaughterhouse!

HOW TO JOIN

*Find a Partner

*Declare your intentions in the Stormcrowe newsletter to enter before the first turn 
of the contest.  You may also email or diplo Master Darque.

*Each manager entering the Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse must submit one (1) Team Roll-Up 
Certificate.  Only certificates will be accepted for entry.  All certificates 
submitted will be used during the course of the contest as prizes.

*RU certificates must be received on or before the first turn of the contest which is 
Stormcrowe Turn 263 (running approximately November 27, 2007).

RULES and SCORING

Rules and Scoring information for the Slaughterhouse will be posted every turn in the 
Stormcrowe newsletter beginning with Turn 260 and in a final all arena ad in 
November.

PRIZES

ENDURANCE AWARD:  One (1) +1 Bonus Potion will be given to every team that competes 
in 60 of the 65 contest fights.

KILL MASTER AWARD:  The individual manager with the most kills will receive a Limited 
Immortality Potion.  This potion may be applied to one (1) warrior.  He/she will be 
resurrected ONE-TIME if they are killed in Basic D2.

TOP TEAM AWARD:  Each manager on the winning team will receive the following prize 
pack for their Slaughterhouse Dominance:

*One (1) +1 Bonus Potion
*Favorites Knowledge for one (1) Warrior
*Undisclosed amount of Team RU Certificates

Special note from RSI on prizes:  All contest prizes must be used within three 
months.  All contest prizes may only be used on a living warrior on the participating 
contest team in DM 45.  The immortality potion may resurrect a warrior one time, 
after a death in DM 45 only, after which time the potion disappears.

NEED MORE INFORMATION

Rules questions and clarifications may be directed to Master Darque the contest 
coordinator.  He may be reached by email at rebelnerfherder at yahoo dot com or by 
diplo in DM 45 (Darque Forces-428).

20 September 2007
Ok, ok, you can stop not-talking about TOGS VI already, it is coming, slowly but
surely, like a giant, over-fed, greased slug sliding down a gravely driveway.  We're
looking for new-comers, old-timers, in-betweeners, fence-sitters and Delarquans to
come on out and participate.  Just think, you could be the next Pinky & the Brain
pairing (a la Creepster & Manager), or maybe you'll be the team that crushes all in
its path on the way TO UTTER AND COMPLETE TOGS DOMINATION!!!!!!  [note:  insert
sinister cackle if it helps you complete the picture]

There will be a few minor changes, so let's recap the rules from top to bottom:

1.  Each TOGS team consists of two managers.  After the contest starts, there will be
no switching partners whatsoever, so choose your teammate wisely.  TOGS VI will last
for 13 turns, so pick a partner you can stand for 6 months or so.

2.  The TOGS entry fee is 2 team setups per manager.  This means 4 setups per TOGS
team.  This entry fee is required before the start of the tourney with no exceptions
being made.  This is to ensure that nobody gets screwed if a team or manager decides
to back out early.  To pay the entry fee either:
     a)  send $10 cash/check/money order/ or whatever to me personally at:
          Paul Jokelson
          115 Moss Ave. #201
          Oakland, CA 94611
     b)  get RSI to send me 2 team setup gift certificates.  Sorry, no credit cards
         and no old teams you have lying around will be accepted.

3. TOGS point system:

Fights: 

10 points for winning on your up-challenge against another TOGS warrior.
 7 points for winning on your even challenge of another TOGS warrior.
 7 points for winning on another TOGS warriors challenge.
 7 points for winning a random match-up against another TOGS warrior.
 4 points for winning on your down-challenge of another TOGS warrior.
 4 points for winning a random match-up against a non-TOGS warrior.

Changes this TOGS: 

** 10 points for any challenge by the DM, UP OR DOWN!!
** 4 points for winning a random match-up against your TOGS partner's warrior.
To state the obvious, there are 0 points if you challenge your partner.

** 4 points for winning a bloodfeud attempt against you by a non-TOGS warrior

You will not get any points if you challenge or get challenged by a non-TOGS team
(with the exception of the above-stated rule if you get bloodfeuded), so use your
avoids wisely if you think someone is out to get you.

Spots/Ads

5 points for every spotlight written by any team member.  1 per manager per turn.

The minimum length of a spotlight to receive points is 1/2 column in the newsletter
(that's 31 lines-each line 85 characters across) and we will be completely firm on
this.  In addition to the length criteria, spotlights will not be given points if
they are in any way plagiarized or if they are not Duelmasters or fantasy related.
We will be the sole judge of this.  If you're unsure if we will judge something to be
Duelmasters or fantasy related, then e-mail me before you write the spotlight and
ask.  We reserve the right to take points away from a spotlight after they are given
if we judge at later time that the spotlight has been plagiarized.

-5 points per manager per turn every time a manager does not at least write one
personal ad.

4.  TOGS VI will start in arena 60 shortly after the Winter Face-to-Face (turn due
Feb 21, Aradi turn 436) and as mentioned before will last for 13 turns.  There will
be multipliers in the later rounds, which means that all points accumulated by a team
on turns 10 and 11 will be multiplied by 1.5 and all points accumulated by each team
on turns 12 and 13 will be multiplied by 2.

5.  Soultaker and Nuln will be the sole arbiters of any dispute that may arise, with
props to Sentinel for doing the score-keeping as always.  Whine all you like, we will
be glad to provide comfortable chairs and the cheese of your choice.

And there be the rules.  If you look closely, you'll notice there were a few minor
changes and additions made from the TOGS V rules.  They are as follows:

-- The Snotman & Nuln rule:  Last TOGS Snotman and Nuln randomly matched up something
like 4-5 times, so we basically decided out of pity to now give a small amount of
points (4 in this case) for winning a random against a teammate, so that you're not
completely screwed by having 2 of your 10 warriors get 0 zero points automatically.

-- Scaling Down Points for the DM:  Previously a TOGS DM would get 10 points *in
addition* to whatever challenge points they got.  This was to keep the DM from being
penalized for being at the top and give people something to fight for.  However, it
was a bit too much of an award and we decided to scale it back and eliminate the
bonus, but give full upchallenge credit whenever the DM challenges.

-- Bloodfeuds from outside TOGS teams:  This incident came up last TOGS, and it was
felt that if a person killed a non-TOGS warrior in a random, they shouldn't have to
be potentially locked into 4 turns of getting 0 points.  So we've added an additional
rule which now gives 4 points if you win when bloodfeuded by a non-TOGS warrior, at
least giving you some way to get points if you're locked into a non-TOGS bloodfeud
instead of being basically removed from the contest for 4 turns.

And lastly...

-- Team Names:  This was not listed in the rules, but to make things more festive, at
the suggestion of Manager we have decided to have the added dimension of team names!
Yes, no more boring rankings with Team 4 edging out Team 7.  Just picture reading a
TOGS turn report now, with something along the lines of "Team Fiery Starfish
obliterated Team Superior TOGSlings," just as one example.

We hope to see you all there....
