SPY REPORT
Good day, friends and fiends, welcome to your friendly neighborhood spyreport.
I doubt STORMCROWE will ever be the same. Now, what did these guys have for
breakfast this morning? THE LION'S DEN has turned a 3-2-0 into 5th place from 16th.
Give me the recipe! I want to know who's buying the drinks for who tonight at The
Shadow's Fountain, seeing as MIRACLE WORKSHOP's 11-15-0 has earned them 7th place in
the ranks. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for there are sorrows to drown
for MIDDLE EARTH, whose 1-4-0 this turn dropped them by 9 into 14th. The PACIS EX
NEX guild has had a 5-0-1 turn and deserves to be watched in the future. You never
know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's see, DEVASTATOR fought SMACKY and
gained 20 points and contributed to NOSTALGIA's 4-1-0. SHADOWCAT HAMMER has lost to
MERCED, falling 16 points, while helping make MUTANT HAMMERZ a 1-4-0 turn. This turn
COLOUR COMMENTATOR challenged TUNDRA in what was STORMCROWE's Title bout. We should
ask TUNDRA about the thrill of victory, and what being the new Duelmaster does for a
warrior, he's now the one to ask. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from
unimpeachable sources that The Shadow's Fountain uses trolls in their stew. Talk
about gristle!
I tell you, a green quarterstaff lasts longer than a seasoned sapling. A basher
friend of mine assures me this is true. RAPTOR has cause to stand tall, as they were
STORMCROWE's most avoided team. A smart manager knows this is a team to beat. And
avoiding RAPTOR more than any other team we find THE DAMNED II. STORMCROWE, are we
going to accept, or respect this sort of thing? The most challenged warrior this
turn was SRETSAMLEUD II's warrior LEND. More fighters challenged him than challenged
the Duelmaster! JOHNNIE WALKER from JGW PERISHABLE 1 took a risk this turn by
bravely challenging up 31 points in a TV challenge against THE AMAZON. And crowds
were on their feet when JOHNNIE WALKER claimed a victory from THE AMAZON, and now has
63 points for his efforts. I don't know about you, but FLYING DUTCHMAN challenging
down 22 points to MAIDEN JAPAN's THE TROOPER, is not really worthy of PHANTOM
REGIMENT. We're not surprised to hear that FLYING DUTCHMAN won victory over THE
TROOPER, but I bet it would be interesting to hear why PHANTOM REGIMENT made such a
challenge. JACOB MARLEY of PHANTOM REGIMENT had better have a good reason for
challenging down 15 points in a challenge which he lost. I thought JACOB MARLEY
showed great skill and promise when he was defeated by MERCY FOR NONE. All right, so
I slept through it! Big deal!
The Dark Arena is for those who cannot win, not who cannot lose with grace.
Dignity in life or death is the warrior's creed. SRETSAMLEUD II has lost SPY to the
arena in the sky, but they don't seem to be worried. What do you expect from 5-4-1?
CYBELL TROUPE has departed STORMCROWE, leaving JGW PERISHABLE 1 without their 4-4-0
warrior. Question, just what was its team doing at the taverns last night? I guess
it was coming sooner or later, PHANTOM REGIMENT has lost BONES, and STORMCROWE is
bound to miss him. For a little while, at least. The Shadow's Fountain declares a
free round for HESPERORNIS and all of RAPTOR, for having revenged DARQUE FORCES'
PAYNE for killing one of their comrades. Kudos go out to YUFFIE this turn, for
revenging DARQUE FORCES' bloodfeud against KELLUMBO'S KIDS' warrior ROS. Well done.
Congratulations go out to RAPTOR, with HARPY revenging a bloodfeud against LEOPARD of
THE LION'S DEN. 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, STORMCROWE, the taverns have old wine, and young serving
girls. Who could ask for more? It's been nice chatting with you, until we meet
again, keep your swords sharp and your hammers heavy. Until you see my quill in
STORMCROWE again, farewell-- Alarond the Scribe

Ghost of Marie -- The "nahhh" was that I really am not that nice of a guy. We are
sad to see you go.... -- Wither Faith
Angel Dust -- I see skills from below.... -- Reaper
Jacob Marley -- Gotta work on my game. -- Mercy
Jagermeister -- I thought I had you. Who said you got to riposte?! -- Bones
Stik -- Second Place!? We don't belong in second place! Blades up so we can move on
up! -- Nomad
Puma -- You crazy cats. Perhaps next time on my challenge. -- Prowler
Mercy for None -- Nice challenge. I love it when someone just sits there and lets me
pound on them. -- Jacob Marley
Trucido -- I guess it was the turn for Phantoms to take out guys from your team.
Perhaps that style match-up isn't in your favor. Now if only I could get these
stupid trains figured out. -- Ichabod Crane
T'Kala -- Really, it was nothing personal, I just thought it was a fight I could win.
And it was. -- Flying Dutchman
Medussa -- Well, one of us had to go. Of course I was kinda hoping it would be you.
-- Medussa
All -- Sent some teams in blindly after a long break, did not intend to barge in on
your contest. I will wait it out. Darque, I apologize for the fear that must have
overwhelmed you at seeing my return. Another time my friend, another time. -- Bill
Flying Dutchman -- Well, Santa Maria in Arkers is listed as a 'ship,' so why aren't
you a 'ghost ship.' You certainly spooked me! -- T'kala
Aragorn -- I'm filing a complaint with the 'Fellowship'.... -- Lorax
Atra Astrum -- I learned that trick 'gigging' frogs when I was young. Never thought
it'd be useful on the sands. -- China Syndrome
Madd Dwarf -- Look, I ain't drunk, and I'm definitely not driving anything. So next
time cut me a little slack will ya? -- Redline
My, my! Quite the turn for our new Duelmaster's team. No problem, Stik. I get
bored and run stat checks all the time, just happened to note the three point
anomaly. Thanks Darque for the nod. Whew! Not a lot I can add as I'm struggling in
this arena. Keep the faith Lady Martilo, it's not over yet. *wry grin* Salute to
all. -- Michael Eldritch

*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
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;
2. Renaming of Dark Arena Monsters (one 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 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
AND 45 fights of the Turf War. Bonus potion must be applied to a living
warrior from (DM 47)
These awards will be listed by the Moderator for claiming from RSI (Lee) within 4
turns of the end of TW VI.
Moderators:
The Moderators for this event will be Oz and Master Darque. 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 via diplo in DM 47. Managers with internet access may send a private message
to [The Consortium] or [Darque] on the Duel2 Forums. Lastly, you may also email
