                                      SPY REPORT

     Greetings, warriors of VEASTIAN!  Once again I've been called out of retirement 
for my abilities and insights into Spyreporting.  Woof!  POSITIVE ALTERNATIVE were a 
bunch of dogs after ROAD WARRIORS got through with 'em!  2nd ain't so sweet as 1st!  
Welcome to VEASTIAN, OBSCURE LORE!  We need more teams who can get a 4-1-0 their 
first time out!  What's with ENDUSIUM?  It actually beat VEASTIAN's EMBEZZLING 
SCRIBE, and walked away with 15 more points from the fight.  Major screwup at MEDAL 
OF HONOR F1.  SOLDIER 1 lost 9 points to PALADIN.  Some new strategies, perhaps?  
Maybe SOLDIER 1 will provide more easy wins...  VEASTIAN has a Duelmaster who doesn't 
sit back and get lazy.  He challenged THE FAMILY's SELINSIA (15-8-2), which should 
prove (ahem!) interesting.  SELINSIA was reminded on the sands why LEO POWERS is 
Duelmaster.  Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on?  I hear some 
team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners.   
     Speaking of cowardly avoiders and unfair challenges...  VEASTIAN thinks ROAD 
WARRIORS and their 13-7-2 is too much!  If at first you don't succeed, give up...  In 
my day, no team with a 9-6-1 would scare me off!  What's the problem, CIV LEADERS?  
How well I know the feeling of being the most challenged warrior, MERCY ME!  Don't 
make idle boasts, they may come back to haunt you.  I hate going to the effort of 
writing about the kind of fights that SKY HAWK gets in.  He fights people like PRINCE 
CONNOR, 8 points below.  I thought SKY HAWK showed great skill and promise when he 
won victory over PRINCE CONNOR.  All right, so I slept through it!  Big deal!   
     A fighter's lot is filled with strife, revenge, and killing.  Some fighters 
don't accept this.  The best do.  KHALHUMS DWARF proved too determined for WORTH 
LISSANDO.  WORTH LISSANDO was lucky to go in the ring, with 19-6-0 to his credit.  He 
will be remembered.  Many a warrior has met his fate in a hungover stupor.  You young 
rapscallions, take note!   
     Who knows what the future holds for a warrior.  More fights, there's no doubt.  
Are you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it?  Actually, I guess I'm 
writing it before you read it.  Oh, well.  I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- 
Olaf Modeen

Hey folks...I'm late, but I got to the party. -- TigToad

Hawk Nelson -- I'm glad to see that you have that TV challenge, it means you've got
more experience than shows and (slightly) saves my face for that loss. -- Sjordhal
P.S.  You'd think we could've spun the fight out longer, though.
P.P.S.  Okay, maybe you wouldn't think it.  *I* think it.  We should've been able to
go twice as long, easy!  I guess this means wind sprints for me.

Leo Powers -- Darned young upstart!  At least it was a fast fight, and I don't have
to write a column this time.  Not such small favors as all that, and I'm duly
thankful for them. -- Noriltenne

Ah, Svenj, the Kung-Fu Master.  Amazing the way he wriggles when you stick a blade in
his belly. -- Worth Lissando
P.S.  And I wasn't even aiming at his belly, either.  He thrust it out in front of
himself and practically threw himself on my blade.  No, really!

Ah, Lagoldok, the Murskan Dwarf.  Well, he did TRAIN in Khalhums, at least, that's
what he says, but he also assures me that he is from Murska originally and will
return there when "the time is right."  Don't ask me what that means, because he just
gets this smug, closed-mouth look and winks. -- Selnisia

Selinsia may have good things to say about Lagoldok, but that's her.  I think she
might be sweet on him, which is disgusting.  Good thing he doesn't return the
whatever, regard, affection, who knows.  I'd have to REALLY hurt him for that, and I
mean seriously, not just arena-type hurting. -- J'korou

All you other managers -- I like the way you make this arena look alive. -- Jorja,
The Family
P.S.  If you decide you'd rather I shut down for the period of your rivalry, just say
the word.  Until such a word is said, you're stuck with me.

Well can''t really say much when I didn't even fight last turn.  Hope you enjoyed
the easy wins against each other cuz now the real warriors are back. -- TGG

                   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
            warrior(s) wins such status.
        3.  Tournament Champions won during the course of the contest will gain a one
            (1) time bonus of 50 points.  This bonus will apply EACH time a
            warrior(s) win such status.
        4.  Points for TVs and TCs 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 seven (7) teams allowed per alliance for the
            Turf War.
        4.  The Dark Arena may be used on the first turn only, of every warrior,
            without penalty.

Prizes:
The Turf War is a "winner take all" contest.  All prizes and 100% of the Gift
Certificates will be awarded to the Captain of the winning alliance.  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.

The following prizes have been secured from RSI:
        1.  Renaming of the North Fork (DM 47) arena;

            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 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 manager who fights in all 10 rounds

These awards will be listed by the Moderator for claiming from RSI (Lee) within 4
