SPY REPORT
Greetings warriors! It is I, Zontani Sharp Eyes, here to bring report of the
clash and bustle of the weekly CHIMLEVTAL games. Former top team THE STORMBRINGERS
was unseated this week as WAR moved up from 11th ranking to take the top spot with a
5-0-0 record for the round. Did only my eyes note the 4-1-0 record which CAESAR'S
POOL HALL managed to post this round? I don't doubt that such a record will draw
challengers! Unwilling to wait upon the will of others, Duelmaster EXECUTIONER
challenged LOWLY WORM last week in a match to decide the fate of the throne. Not for
nothing has EXECUTIONER in the past laid claim to the Duelmaster's throne, and this
week he's proven his combat skill yet again. No confirmation, but my sources claim
that the top team has gained their position using magical aids. Charmed weapons
perhaps?
Many and various are the arts of battle. In CHIMLEVTAL "art" is a word that has
long since passed from the language! CHIMLEVTAL, city of gladiators! Mighty among
the names of thy guilds is LORDS OF VALHALLA, a guild shunned and avoided by many in
the weekly duels. Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that
spent the better part of last week avoiding LORDS OF VALHALLA. Indeed it was THE
STORMGUARDS. Loose talk at the arena has reached my ears and it but confirms the
knowledge that many fighters are after DIRDEN I. Watch your back! For some warriors
honor is not important--only empty victory. See, gladiators, how VINDICATOR of
RETRIBUTION challenged down 24 points to BADGER. All the city knows the duel went in
favor of VINDICATOR. I shall not fail to spread the word in other cities of this
"mighty" victory. A match that raised a few eyebrows at the games this week, it
seems that STARVATION posted a challenge against the more highly recognized HLOTHYN.
The results, you ask? Well, the firebrand STARVATION won victory over HLOTHYN.
Remember warriors, this is the discipline of steel. I can not but mention with
disdain the name of GRIM REAPER who this week posted a challenge to a warrior a full
10 points below in the rankings. I thought GRIM REAPER showed great skill and
promise when he overcame ULL HARDHAMMER. All right, so I slept through it! Big
deal!
Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser? Warriors, may this counselor stand
ready at your right hand forever! Look no more for BOB CAT in the arena or on the
streets of CHIMLEVTAL. His fate was sealed in the Dark Arena. Inevitable for one at
5-8-0. This week marked the last days of MUSH OX who at 2-11-0 was dispatched to the
Dark Arena by the command of THE ANIMALS' demanding management. Some say a warrior
is judged by the way he bears arms. One thing is sure, better a dagger in hand then
a sword on the belt!
If it were not for my skills as a spy I would have been mugged three times
already in CHIMLEVTAL. Nice atmosphere you have here! More than a sharp eye must I
keep, indeed a stout pair of legs must I keep as well! The endless paths of Alastari
await me! Till next we meet remember - the pen is mightier than the sword, but a
maul is a different story!-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

PERSONAL ADS
Major Pain -- Oh, yeah, I know you. And all your carbon copies in real life and all
sorts of body parts. I could wish that defeating you this once was an omen for other
situations, but it seems unlikely. -- Kolum Marod
P.S. Good fight.
Team Captain -- Ah, trying to be a good example, I see! My team didn't think much of
it, however. -- Oswell Quirn
P.S. Not that they were surprised.
Private Lapdance -- (blushing hotly) I should think so! Not the kind of thing
anyone wants to do in public. Well, anyone with a little decency. -- Loden Norvis
P.S. And I do have a little.
Ulthar Redblade -- (sigh) Good fight. -- Ghost of Norbel Perde
Cumulus -- I dreamed about you last night, and when I got up in the morning, the
streets were wet. Don't do that. -- Mandin Orle
Bobby -- I remember when you first noted the problem with getting personals in and
said you were tired of fighting that battle. But it was a long time ago, as I
recall, and things have changed in the way the office of the Commission handles these
things. I don't know whether the change is "for the better" or not, but it is
different. It would be a pleasure if you'd speak up occasionally. -- Jorja
P.S. Other arenas, too!
9 August 2008
All -- We are currently looking for capable manager that will give the Desolate
Empire Alliance a full roster for the Turf War. We currently have four (4) roster
slots that are open to capable managers without questionable morals. If interested
for the Turf War, contact: Lamar Treas-Wilson, Dok Sik, Dok Sik Killas DM 47

*TURF WAR VI RULES*
Starting Nov 2008 (10 turns)
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 alliance and the Captain of the alliance in the North Fork
(DM 47) newsletter.
2. Announcements made on the D2 Forums will not be accepted.
Captains are responsible for:
1. Verifying those who wish to participate under the banner of their
alliance;
2. Distribution of prizes should their alliance win the Turf War.
3. Submit one (1) RSI Roll-Up Certificate to participate
Participating managers who are not Captains must:
1. Submit one (1) RSI Roll-Up Certificate to participate
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 a Gift Certificate is received.
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
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 from the Turf War (so be sure to take any
multiple teams OFF of Team Maintenance).
d. Scoring will NOT be retroactive for teams that do not properly
declare 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 scoring
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.
Scoring will be as follows for Fights:
Win Loss Kill Die
Challenge +2 -2 +5 -5
Match Up +1 -1 +1 -5
Bloodfeud +2 -5 +5 -10
Champion x2 x2 x2 x2
Dark Arena* +10 -5 xx xx
*After 2nd win, warrior scores no points for wins
Special Scoring Considerations for the Turf War are as follows:
Spy Report mention (team name only) +2
Style Master +2
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 be in the Adepts bracket or lower on the turn they are
declared, and may NOT have gone above Adepts level at any time; this
includes teams transferred into North Fork for the Turf War.
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 points. This bonus will apply EACH time a
