                       Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse Turn 9 Scoring

     Turn 9 was an interesting and exciting one (possibly frustrating for a few squads 
too).  We had a lead change as Conscrips take over the top spot.  Can they hold on for 
the final turn or will Shewish Drive Thru reassert themselves for the win?  It is 
possible another team can win it all with a spectacular turn as well.  I look forward 
to seeing how it all plays out!
     Here is the scoring breakdown for last turn.

                            *****************************

     THIS IS THE END! We return to traditional Slaughterhouse scoring with increased 
values. The scoring for this final turn will be:

                                        +5 Win
                                       -5 Death
                                        +5 Kill

Wins and kills against Arena Stand Bys and Squad-mates will not be scored (Please 
note: Death against any opponent will be scored with a -5). Dark Arena fights will be 
scored regularly.

                           *******************************

     I hope you all have enjoyed the contest.  I will issue a prize list next turn in 
the newsletter.  This includes the grand prizes and the endurance awards.  Please 
remember that all prizes must be used in a timely manner, as established by RSI, and 
must be applied to warrior(s) in DM 45.

     Until the next time,

                                          -- Master Darque

                             Notes from the arena champ.

     And so it seems our wonderful little contest draws to a close.  A fine thing that 
it should enter its final turn with a Phantom on the throne.  The plan was to not 
graduate until it was done and, well, mission accomplished, I guess.  The contest is 
complete and I am off to the Isle.  I suspect that Ichabod and perhaps others from my 
team will soon join me as well.  There is no way Scrawny old Crane would last another 
10-turn contest.  But whatever happens to them, for myself I can rest assured that I 
have run the gauntlet and join Jacob Marley as arena 45 Phantoms in AD. 
     As for the contest, I was quite pleased to see that the Regiment held strong -- 
maintaining the second best overall record through the contest of any team.  Indeed, 
never take a ghost for granted.  Alas, the wins apparently did not always come at the 
right time and under the right circumstances as our Phantom Blades squad will not be 
taking home any hardware from this contest.  Still, a chilly Phantom 'congrats' and a 
'thank you' go out to our partners on the contest squad -- the Abattoir 5 Blades run 
by Master Hammer.  We did not, perhaps, reach expectations, but it was an honor 
competing with your blades.  We salute you!
     I would also be remiss if I did not issue a congratulations and a thank you to 
the Master of Ceremonies, Master Darque.  You run a fine contest, Sir.  Things went 
smoothly and it was good to be back in Stormcrowe.  A contest to honor a manager is a 
good thing.  A well run contest is a great thing.  And this contest was well run and a 
pleasure to be a part of.  I can not take all of the credit for that, and so must 
shine some well deserved light upon yourself.  Step into the spotlight, Master Darque!
     And finally, like any good contest, we head into the final turn not yet knowing 
who the victor will be.  There are plenty of points out there to be had.  Best of luck 
to those in contention and best of luck to the warriors -- may your opponent not earn 
those 5 points for a kill!

                                      SPY REPORT

     Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, 
I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again!  INTERNATIONAL?  Who?  HOWLIN SLAUGHTER is the 
top team these days, buddies!  BIG LAKE KILLERS after a sorry 0-5-0 might want to 
consider abandoning the sands and taking up singing the 'Can't fight no more' blues!  
Good things come to those who fight well, as CSU COLLEGE RADIO can attest, moving up 
by 9.  PONY BRIGADE had cause to celebrate, after RAINBOW DASH got 25 points by 
beating MONGOLIA.  A certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice 
more, after losing 18 points to RAINBOW DASH.  (Discrete enough, MONGOLIA?) 
Duelmaster PROWLER from PHANTOM REGIMENT is going for the gold, as he Dark Arena 
Challenged DARK ARENA's BLACK ORC.  Ooh, the excitement!  Those who hoped for a new 
Duelmaster were disappointed by BLACK ORC, of DARK ARENA, who despite a 0-0-0 
couldn't overcome STORMCROWE's Number 1.  Word has it one team in STORMCROWE is using 
psychics to predict wins.  They lead a charmed life!   
     And how sociable are STORMCROWE's warriors?  Come, let us see.  Like the noble 
eagle soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of BASH BROS CARS, 
alone and unchallenged.  The warriors of BASH BROS CARS found their efforts at combat 
frustrated as AVID FANS apparently had more important things to do than fight.  
Everyone is famous for fifteen minutes, and LEMON is it right now.  Most challenged 
warrior.  Isn't BASH BROS CARS proud!  Take heed STORMCROWE, of the unprincipled 
action of SYLVIA PLATH.  By challenging RASAM, 19 points below her, SYLVIA PLATH 
besmirches the noble art of dueling.  Bookies and SYLVIA PLATH were more than a 
little surprised, as RASAM snatched an easy victory from SYLVIA PLATH, gaining 22 
points.  Them's the breaks, PELOSI.  Expecting fair challenges from SHEWISH BUFFET is 
evidently too much to ask.  FAMILY RECIPE slew PELOSI.  The whole thing leaves a 
bitter memory.  As a confidence booster, FEEDER challenged SHRIMP SCAMP, down 16 
points.  Do you also slay vicious rodents in your spare time, FEEDER?  Warriors of 
STORMCROWE!  Do you wish your reputations tainted by the base challenge of FEEDER?  
Take heed STORMCROWE, of the unprincipled action of CLAWRENCE  DARROW.  By 
challenging MARY KRUEGER, 28 points below him, CLAWRENCE DARROW besmirches the noble 
art of dueling.  CLAWRENCE DARROW subdued MARY KRUEGER with a point difference of 28. 
So this is what STORMCROWE calls a duel.  This will make an interesting tale.  Them's 
the breaks, STICKY BLUE BLADE.  Expecting fair challenges from ICE-N-FIRE is 
evidently too much to ask.  Warriors of STORMCROWE!  Do you wish your reputations 
tainted by the base challenge of THE MOUNTAIN?  As a confidence booster, SNOW 
challenged STRANGEWORLD, down 18 points.  Do you also slay vicious rodents in your 
spare time, SNOW?  Yes, Virginia, sometimes the little guy wins, as STRANGEWORLD 
proved, beating 18 point higher SNOW.  Take heed STORMCROWE, of the unprincipled 
action of TOBIR BATTER.  By challenging UNION LOVER, 17 points below him, TOBIR 
BATTER besmirches the noble art of dueling.  Next time TOBIR BATTER walks with his 
head high remind him of the fight where he challenged down 17 points and lost to 
UNION LOVER.   
     Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors.  
BLACK ORC in the Dark Arena wasn't enough for PROWLER of PHANTOM REGIMENT.  Maybe 
that certain serving girl(?) at The Shadow's Fountain will be!  Those who owe HUMAN 
BEAN of SHEWISH BUFFET money and had written him off, take note:  he'S BACK FROM THE 
DARK ARENA!!!  AND he'S MAD!!!  BLACK ORC in the Dark Arena wasn't enough for DEAD 
BATTERY of BASH BROS CARS.  Maybe that certain serving girl(?) at The Shadow's 
Fountain will be!  FAMILY RECIPE of SHEWISH BUFFET spared PELOSI (5-6-1) from having 
to lose any more fights.  What's your next plan, SIMPLETONS?  LIVE CATTLE of HOWLIN 
SLAUGHTER sends SKETCHY JEFF of OTTODROME XLV goes to the Weary Warrior's Retirement 
Home.  STORMCROWE has no place for weaklings!  BRAVE NEW WORLD of MAIDEN JAPAN, 
possessing a sorry record of 8-16-3, lost his last battle to L'APPRENTI of LA 
BOULANGE.  Young warriors, take note!  Such is a failure's lot!  Death in the arena!  
In a cheap quest for a cheap victory, FAMILY RECIPE faced PELOSI in an uneven fight.  
SIMPLETONS, we expect bloody revenge!  Does WRATHMEN 1.1 care so little for their 
fallen comrade, KELLI?  EDMUND KEMPER was heard at The Shadow's Fountain sneering...  
Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.   
     All good things must come to an end.  My fingers tire and I fear my incessant 
prattling may cause unfair judgement upon my impeccable character.  STORMCROWE, I 
leave you now.  The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Shadow's Fountain.  
'Til next time-- Novgorodny Vir
