DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
The thick cloud cover finally broke as bright radiant sunshine rained down upon
the fair city of Osksi. Gone was the greyness, the annoying misty rain, the brisk
cold winds. Cheer and disbelief spread wildly across the arena stands as the beast,
covered head-to-toe in Platemail armor... Cadillac Dundee, was savagely defeated by
THE VOICE INSIDE in one dominating, devastating, catastrophic and convincing minute.
Babies were kissed, leppers were cured, water turned to wine and doves flew overhead
in droves.
Marma Duke could be seen grinning wildly as another of his top dogs ascended to
the throne and donned the purple robes. The Muffin Man's minions quickly whisked the
defeated Cadillac from the sands... who knows which evil magic he would bestow upon
his defeated stallion for his next match. What witches' brew would he apply to make
Cadillac stronger and more powerful... only time would tell. No matter the tonic
applied, THE VOICE INSIDE was ready for their next meeting.... or would TMM send
another of his evil warriors to challenge for the throne yet again.
"TRY NOT!!! Do or DO NOT! There is no try!" were the words or wisdom whispered
into the ears of The Voice Inside from Marma Duke.
Till next turn.....
SPY REPORT
So why do I have this bag over my head? Because I am The Unknown Spymaster and
I'm going to give you a spy report!. Say good-bye to GAMES LIBRARY, as they are
pushed from the coveted top team spot by the GENERATION X stable. It looks like the
guys(?) at ASTRAL KIN had a good week as they went 3-1-0 to put them in 4th place. I
guess steroids help! Hey everybody, watch out for KAREOKE KILLER, who flew up 16
points in the rankings after mashing FALRONDIAL VOTH like a melon. Keep your eye on
this guy. And falling like a basher in the top ten was FALRONDIAL VOTH, who dropped
13 points after a disappointing (to say the least) bout with KAREOKE KILLER. In
front of all the crowds, BOB THE INHALER took the Duelmaster's crown for his own. I
give the bum two weeks. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day
keeps T.P.s at bay.
Let's dig a little deeper into what's happening in the OSKSI arena. Here's a
song for you: Who's afraid of the big, bad STATE OF MIND? Big bad STATE OF MIND.
Big bad STATE OF MIND. OSKSI's afraid of the big bad STATE OF MIND. Tra la la la
la! Okay, so I may not be funny, but catch GENERATION X's act in the arena. Those
acrobats seem to be fairly deft at running from STATE OF MIND. Well dang howdy, but
if challenges were votes, BOB THE INHALER would be president. Although it may be a
contest he doesn't want to win.
Death is kind of like a new puppy: he's always around wanting to play. (Ha
Zontani, how's that for a wise saying?). In the 'Oops, What Have I Done?' category,
FUNNY FARM FIEND was mashed by COFFEE HOUSE POET, who let FUNNY FARM FIEND know that
killing members of GENERATION X is a no-no. Well, the dead guy SHUB NIGGUARTH just
took DREAMS OF KADATH off his Christmas card list. The poor guy's bloodfeud just
expired with zippo results. Here's some advice: warriors with little wit and will
may encounter problems on the trail to the Isle.
Well, that wasn't too bad; Alarond told me that the people in OSKSI have no
sense of humor. Or maybe that they were senseless. Well, there goes another Spy
Report. Good luck in next week's fights. Its been real, and its been fun, but it
hasn't been real fun...-- The Unknown Spymaster

Cadillac Dundee -- Something told me that if I gave it another go, I'd have your
number. -- The Voice Inside
Mega Pixel -- You were an ambitious challenge, but I decided to go for it anyway....
pass the chips? -- Stoned Immaculate
Gamma K Grad -- Do the hustle!!!! <dance> -- Hustlers Ambition
Cobblestone -- Well done... losses like that drive me mad!!! -- Funny Farm Fiend
Markessian Sko -- Savagely..... savagely??? -- Artificial Courage
Obregon -- Welcome back to the bloody sands! -- Marma Duke
Coffee House Poet -- Hmm. Do you suppose it was wearing the "poet shirt" under your
armor that did the trick? If so, I might try that myself. Of course, I night have
to actually write or at least recite poetry to make it work. Horrid thought. I'm
not sure I want a win that badly. Anyway, congratulations on yours. You earned it.
-- Falrondial Voth
You wouldn't look as good in a poet shirt as she does.
Kareoke Killer -- Perhaps if we gave you a bucket, you could use it to carry a tune
in? I gotta tell you, I feel good about that win. Like I'm doing something right...
for once. -- Skaevolovian Kor
Ha! The Ambitious Guard thought he'd intimidate me with his height, but! I'm as
tall as he is! And a better fighter. -- Daeromenzian Val
Many are.
The Userous Merchant was hopelessly over-matched. He obviously didn't realize that
back home, we start haggling in the market place as soon as we can talk, regardless
of our station in life. -- Saldorinivan Kiro
Artificial Courage -- What is it with these Commission people? How can I be a dwarf?
I think it must be the mustache, but I'm not going to shave it. -- Markessian Sko
P.S. Ah, I believe the proper comment here is "Good fight."
Cobblestone -- We didn't figure it was deliberate, and we honor your willingness to
be bloodfeuded. But that's unlikely to happen except by accident. Way too much
going on here to mess around with strategy changes, much less challenges for
pointless revenge. Go and sin no more. -- Jorja, Games Library
Artificial Courage -- You showed up to fight, that was courage enough. --
Daeromenzian Val
Mega Pixel -- I always, well, often strive for the impossible goal. -- Falrondial

POSTED: Arena recruitment effort, DM 32, Arvat -- seeing as our arena Participation
has dwindled in recent months, we're offering the following incentive to any new
teams looking for a new home arena. We will GIVE a Free Rollup to any manager
willing to agree to fight in Arvat for the next 10 turns. We have a number of VERY
solid arena teams stockpiled, and while we don't promise tournament godlings, we are
certain we can come up with teams with 3, 4 or even 5 solid arena warriors to start
out with.
In addition we'll honor any no-challenge requests by relatively new managers to
help you get off on the right foot.
If interested, please contact the Devil Advocates via Diplo or contact
theDarkOne via IM on the www DOT reality DOT com site. We will even give a choice of
teams available if requested.

THE TURF WAR IS HERE AGAIN!!!!!
*************************************************************************************
*TURF WAR VII RULES*
Starting Nov 2010 (12 turns)
Bring acclaim and glory to the North Fork (DM47) arena.
Anyone may participate; known alliances, new alliances, or temporary alliances
created solely to compete in the Turf War! To participate, each alliance must:
1. Announce the Captain of the alliance in the North Fork (DM 47)
newsletter.
2. Indicate in the newsletter which Captain/alliance you will join.
3. Announcements made on the D2 Forums or elsewhere will not be accepted.
Captains are responsible for:
1. Verifying/authorizing, in the North Fork newsletter those who wish to
participate under the banner of their alliance. (Lack of participant indication of
joining and/or lack of lack of Captain confirmation will delay a team's participation
in the Turf War.)
2. Distribution of prizes should their alliance win the Turf War.
3. Submit two (2) RSI Roll-Up Certificates to participate. (Note: Captains
may, if they wish, submit certs for all potential members of their alliance.)
Participating managers who are not Captains must:
1. Submit two (2) RSI Roll-Up Certificates to participate (Unless already
submitted by Captain. Note: extras will not be returned, but will go into the winning
pool of prizes.)
2. Announce their intent to compete with manager name, team name, and
alliance they will represent in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter. Announcement made
on the D2 Forums will not be accepted.
a. No scores will be tabulated until an RSI Gift Certificate is
received, and participant indication and captain confirmation are posted in the North
Fork newsletter. NO EXCEPTIONS.
b. Before a manager can compete, he/she must declare themselves in
the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter as stated above AND be verified in the newsletter
by the alliance Captain they will represent.
c. Only one (1) team per player may compete. No multiple teams or
aliases will be allowed. Violations will result in immediate disqualification
(including team point adjustments) from the Turf War (so be sure to take any multiple
teams OFF of Team Maintenance and be certain not to run any other team warriors).
d. Scoring will NOT be retroactive for teams/alliances that do not
properly declare or get captain confirmation or fail to send a Gift Certificate by
Turn 1. In other words, if your Gift Certificate is not received until Turn 3 of the
Turf War, and you have fought on Turns 1 and 2, your score will not begin until Turn
3. All conditions must be met before scoring will begin--declaration, verification,
and Gift Certificate received.
e. No declarations or verifications will be accepted after Turn 5 of
the Turf War.
f. For purposes of scoring, the moderators will score the Turf War
and settle any and all disputes as they arise. Their decisions will be final. (Note:
the intent is to have a very thorough set of rules so that few decisions, if any, are
required from the moderators.)
Scoring will be as follows for Fights:
Win Loss Kill Die
Up Challenge +2 -2 +5 -5
Down Challenge 0 -2 0 -5
Match Up +1 -1 +1 -5
Bloodfeud Challenge (Up or Down) +2 -5 +5 -10
Champion ** x2 x2 x2 x2
Dark Arena* +10 -5 xx xx
Tournament Death*** -5
Halfway (6 round total) best alliance win/loss percentage ****
Final (12 round total) alliance w/l% percentage ****
*After 2nd win in DA, warrior scores no additional points for wins,
** A Champion's double score applies to his score only -- not to the opponent.
*** No warrior may be substituted without the proper use of the DA or arena death
or death in a tournament. There must be a maximum of five only on a team at any point
and time. (The penalty for such substitution is -10 points.) Points awarded for
tournament participation are 5 for any entrant, 15 for a TV and 25 for a TC. Death in
a tournament negates any tournament points gained and results in a-5 score.
***** Halfway points scored are 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 5, 5 (etc) for 1st, 2nd, 3rd
(etc). (to qualify for any of these points the alliance must have fought 75% of its
possible fights.) Final 12 Round points scored are 40, 30, 20, 15, 10, 5, 5, 5 (etc)
for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd (etc). (to qualify for any of these points the alliance must
have fought 75% of its possible fights.)
Special Scoring Considerations for the Turf War are as follows:
Spy Report mention (team name only) +2
1. No matter how many mentions or stylemasters, an individual team can score
only +2 in each category per round
Style Master +2
1. No matter how many mentions or stylemasters, an individual team can score
only +2 in each category per round
Duelmaster +2
Champions:
1. A Champion may be declared, but one is not mandatory.
2. Only one Champion allowed per manager at any given time.
3. Champions that graduate or are killed by another warrior in the arena, but
not the Dark Arena, may be replaced.
4. Champions must have fought at least one previous fight in the North Fork
(DM47 arena) to be able to be declared a champion.
Bloodfeuds:
1. Bloodfeuds will score points on all four (4) turns.
2. There is no limit to which warrior may bloodfeud or how often.
Tournament Considerations:
1. Tournament participation is ALLOWED and encouraged.
2. Tournament Victors won during the course of the contest will gain a one
(1) time bonus of 25 15 points. This bonus will apply EACH time a warrior(s) wins
such status.
3. Tournament Champions won during the course of the contest will gain a one
(1) time bonus of 50 25 points. This bonus will apply EACH time a warrior(s) win
such status.
4. Points awarded for tournament participation are 5 for any entrant, (15
total for a TV and 25 total for a TC.) However, death in a tournament will result in
a -5 score for that tournament. (If a warrior TV's and is subsequently killed in a
tournament the points scored are -5 for that tournament.)
5. Points for TVs and TCs and tournament deaths will be applied the Turn
after RSI posts tournament results in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter (i.e., if the
results post on North Fork turn 275, points will be credited on North Fork turn 276
to the applicable teams).
Special Considerations:
1. Each alliance begins the Turf War with zero (0) points.
2. There will be NO alliance or team changes once the contest has begun. If
you begin the Turf War with Alliance A, you must end the Turf War with Alliance A.
If you begin the Turf War with Team A, you must end the Turf War with Team A.
3. There will be a maximum of five (5) teams allowed per alliance for the
Turf War VII.
4. The Dark Arena may be used on the first turn only, of every warrior,
without penalty.
Prizes:
The Turf War is normally a "winner take all" contest. However, for TWVII, a prize
will be awarded each of the twelve turns to the individual team/manager that fights
five fights and has the best w/l record that turn. (Tiebreakers are in order - kills,
recognition points earned.) All prizes and 100% of the Gift Certificates will be
awarded to the Captain of the winning alliance at the end of the competition. It is
the responsibility of the Captain to distribute Gift Certificates. Moderators will
submit a list of each manager on the winning alliance to RSI at the completion of the
contest for the non-Certificate prizes.
All entry fees (rollup certs) are awarded to the winning alliance, except for
the twelve reserved for the individual winning manager each week.)
The following prizes have been secured from RSI:
1. Renaming of the North Fork (DM 47) arena;
2. Renaming of all Dark Arena Monsters (two for each manager in the winning
alliance);
3. Known Favorites for one warrior on each team of the winning alliance
(warrior must be ranked Initiate or above, must be alive, and must have at least one
DM47 arena fight to receive this award).
4. +1 Skill bonus potion for each manager on the winning alliance. Bonus
potion must be applied to a living warrior from (DM 47)
5. +1 Skill bonus potion (one) for each and every individual manager who
fights in all 12 rounds AND 54 fights of the Turf War. Bonus potion must be applied
to a living warrior from (DM 47)
These RSI awards will be listed by the Moderator for claiming from RSI (Lee)
within 4 turns of the end of TW VI. The certs will be mailed to the winning alliance
by the Moderators within two weeks of the end of the TW.
