                             Notes from the arena champ.

Fun fight with Hurricane which showed what happens when a basher breaks his weapon.  
Fists against steel are not a good matchup.

My challenges this turn go to Colonel Klink, who is top contender and a decent style 
matchup for me.  Quite frankly, I'm OK with losing the throne so I don't graduate 
before the October Mail-In.

Good luck on the sands...  Well, except against me!

                                      SPY REPORT

    It was a very bad (and in one case sad) turn for the undefeated warriors in the 
arena.  Two such warriors were victims of rising up too fast through the ranks and 
having to face much more experienced warriors.  The third just blew it.
    TANTRUM, who has been throwing one for 4 weeks because the commission moved him up 
so fast, issued a challenge to lowest ranked (and sub .500) champion, SERGEANT 
SCHULTZ.  Sound reasoning, but a loss it was.  SCHULTZ moves up to .500 and TANTRUM 
will now be mostly forgotten until/unless it can gain my attention again.  DODGE'EM 
DUDE made a mostly insignificant down challenge (If you're going to DC, why not do it 
all the way...  VICTORIA WHITE was ripe for the picking -- some offense intended) and 
lost his first fight to SNARKEY LIME PIE.  Finally, GUMBALL, after a very impressive 
win last turn giving loss #1 to WITCHING HOUR, met with a most disagreeable RED 
PEPPER. RED PEPPER may not be a very good warrior, but experience matters and RED 
PEPPER's 27 fights were more than a match for GUMBALL's mere 4 wins.  And it appears 
that GUMBALL was like a gum ball in more ways than just a name.  When you're finished 
with a gum ball, you dispose of it.  GUMBALL has been disposed of!  It was a fun and 
glorious time watching all of you undefeated warriors these past months!  Now I must 
wait for someone else to rise to the occasion. You are all (like LADY SMITH) mostly 
dead to me now (and in GUMBALL's case fully dead).
    RAVAGED challenged COLONEL KLINK.  COLONEL KLINK challenged RAVAGED. While RAVAGED 
claimed being ok with not graduating, he certainly didn't let his fighting go soft.  
RAVAGED stayed on top in a very nice two minute fight. Both of these fine warriors 
were recognized by the commission as Chimlevtal's newest Lord Protectors.
    In team news, CARTOON NETWORK went 4-1.  They continue their pattern of 
challenging way up the ranks.  I'm not up during the WITCHING HOUR, but I'm certainly 
going to stay away from CARTOON NETWORK during that hour!  WITCHING HOUR was perfect 
until the CARTOON NETWORK opened up.  The NETWORK pulled in 4 awards as well.  
OTTOBAHN and CANADA EH! both returned to the sands in very unmemorable and dismal 
performances.  I would have hoped for more so they wouldn't be inclined to leave 
again.  Plus I'm always happy to see veteran teams run by the Consortium, Assur, or 
any other mega manager lose to such returning teams.
    NORISON ROSE was reported as most challenged warrior.  Avoids were flying all over 
the place.  A full 31 warriors made 58 avoids.  As usual, the technology couldn't 
handle the tie.  It also makes no reference to the fact that TWO other teams were only 
a single avoid below the tie.  ASSASSIN NATION and JUST DESSERTS each received 10 
avoids.  USEFUL WEAPONS and AFTER MIDNIGHT each received 9 avoids.  It is nice to see 
managers paying attention and using the tools they have available.  I still think the 
down challenge is a much under utilized tool, but I understand that making enemies is 
also a thing.  Just choose your enemies well and life will continue.
    The Smithy's are multiplying.  They brought their little brother to town. At least 
it is a brother.  I cannot imagine another lady!!!  One female SMITHY is too much.  
Thanks to Channel Master, the Smithy crowd, Jorja, Ghab, and Weirdo for their 
contributions to the newsletter.

        -- Belinda, in a kinder, gentler mood of late (unless your name is Lady Smith)

                       TURF WAR XII -- TW12       (Rev 8-8-20)
                      (Start turn after FTF or Mailer JAN 2021)

                   Bring acclaim and glory to the North Fork (DM47)

TURF WARS is a team event and unlike all other events in D2, involves "certs."

Anyone may participate; known alliances, new alliances, thrown-together alliances, or 
temporary alliances created solely to compete in the Turf War!  To participate, each 
alliance or participant must:

1.  Announce an Alliance Name, Captain, and Assistant of the alliance in the North 
    Fork (DM 47) newsletter or on the RSI site. 

2.  Determine and submit either 1 or 2 or 3 certificates per participant. Amounts can 
    be different per alliance participant. (See Scoring section for more details.)

3.  Each participating team must run in DM47 on one of the three turns prior to the 
    start of TW12 so that the team shows in the last newsletter prior to the 1st TW12 
    turn.

At the end of the game, Captains are responsible for distributing any winning 
certificates to the team participants.

No alliance scores can be tabulated until the chosen amount of RSI Gift Certificates 
are received, the teams are listed in the newsletter, and participant indication and 
captain confirmation are posted in the North Fork newsletter.

All entry certs should be sent to Oz or The Consortium via RSI.

Only one (1) team per player/manager may compete in the Turf Wars, and only one team 
per player/manager may compete in North Fork DM47 during the Turf War. No arena 
multiple teams or aliases will be allowed. Violations will result in immediate manager 
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). NOTE: Since alliances require two teams, this would mean the remaining 
alliance member cannot score in the TW.

Any Turf War team must show/be posted/listed in the DM47 Newsletter just prior to 
their actual scoring/participation. (E.g. New teams, transfers, current teams must 
show up in the newsletter prior to the beginning of participation, allowing opponent 
knowledge and challenging/avoiding.) Manager/teams may not participate/score in the 
Turf War the same turn they are first posted in the newsletter. (So get your team in 
the newsletter early.) Teams do not have to run that turn prior to TW12-T1, but will 
have had to run shortly before to allow their warriors to be visible in the newsletter 
just prior to TW12-T1.

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, confirmation, NL listing, and Gift 
Certificate received.

No declarations or confirmations will be accepted after Turn 2 of the Turf War. 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.)

No warrior may be substituted without the proper use of the DA or arena death or death 
in a tournament or graduation. There must be a maximum of five only on a team at any 
point and time. (The penalty for such substitution is -25 points.)

SCORING will be as follows: Only three things affect scoring. Number of initial certs 
submitted, wins, fighting all five warriors, and the round modifier. (Later rounds 
have higher modifiers.)

NUMBER OF CERTS SUBMITTED

1. Alliances will start the competition with the amount of points based on the amount 
   of certs submitted.

          Two certs (1 each, the minimum required) = 0 points.
          Three certs total = 3 points for the alliance
          Four certs total = 6 points for the alliance
          Five certs total = 10 for the alliance
          Six certs (the max) total = 15 for the alliances

2. After the sixth and after the eleventh round those same amount of turn starting 
   points are awarded to each alliance.

3. Hence, alliances may earn up to 45 points through the event via certs. (Note: cert 
   points are not impacted by the Round Modifier.)

NUMBER OF WINS

1. Each teammate win per round is worth 3 base points. (e.g. 1 win = 3 points, 5 wins 
   = 15 points)

FIGHT ALL FIVE WARRIORS

1. Each turn there is a +3 base point bonus for each teammate fighting all five 
   warriors

2. Each turn there is a -3 base point penalty for each teammate not fighting all five 
   warriors.

ROUND MODIFIER

1. The first 6 rounds of TW12 are scored at 1x base points. (Base points includes win 
   scoring, and any all-5 bonus/penalty, but not any cert scoring)

2. The 7th through 11th rounds are scored at 2x base points.

3. For the final and 12th round, base point scoring is at x3.

Special Considerations:

1. There will be NO alliance or team changes once the contest has begun.  If you begin 
   the Turf War with Alliance X, you must end the Turf War with Alliance X.  If you 
   begin the Turf War with Team X, you must end the Turf War with Team X.

2. Each alliance is comprised of two and only two managers.

3. The Dark Arena may be used without penalty. (Limit twice per warrior.)

4, If at any time, the Moderators determine that any non-TW team in the arena is 
   aiding and/or abetting any TW alliance or team, the affected points won by the 
   gifted team/alliance will be disallowed and the aiding non-TW team will be asked to 
   desist from play in the arena until after the Turf War concludes.

PRIZES

Certs:  The winning alliance gets 70% of the pooled certs. Second place alliance gets 
20%, and third place gets 10%.

It is the responsibility of the Captain of the winning alliance to distribute Gift 
Certificates to his alliance. Moderators will mail them shortly after the final round.

mailed to the winning alliance by the Moderators within two weeks of the end of the 
TW.

Moderators:  The Moderators for this event will be Oz, Master Darque, and Assur. (The 
TWX Triumvirate) They will arbitrate all dealings during the course of the contest.  
Their decisions will be final.  All questions, comments, and scoring disputes may be 
directed to Land of Oz or Darque Forces or Bash Bros Park via diplo in DM 47.  
Managers with internet access may send a private message to [The Consortium] or 
[Darque] or [Assur] on the Duel2 Forums.  Lastly, you may also email questions,
