TEAM SPOTLIGHT
The swamp reverberated with the sound of Voo-Doo's cry, "No!"
No sooner had Marais's head been dragged under the swamp, the painted one threw
himself prone and began to kick and scream. To Goat he looked like nothing more than
a two year old throwing a temper tantrum. But suddenly the swamp began to bubble,
almost as if it were boiling, and the creature that had grabbed Marais surfaced,
thrashing wildly.
Soon, it lay still.
Goat could see see something wrapped around the creature's throat. Marais's head
came up and she slowly unwrapped her tongue from around the creature's neck.
Voo-Doo's sobs turned to sniffles as he wiped the tears from his eyes, then he
held his arms out to the karragit.
Goat raised his arms and a glowing sphere surrounded the pair. They dissipated
in a flash and Goat was left standing in the swamp holding ABRAXIS's precious mud.
The cry of "No!" had now been replaced by Goat's musical laughter.

NORTH FORK YELLOW RAG
Well, do I feel like a complete idiot, or what?! I usually get called an idiot a
lot, but not completely. Anyway, I reported last turn that Slugbait won the Jhans
Death Fest. OOPS!!! Sorry, that was Shocking Toad! Sorry Slugbait, no disrespect or
insult meant. Musta been the "crawling on the ground" thing, ya know? Geez, what an
idiot! Nah, not Slugbait...nor even Shocking Toad. Just *ME*!
Okay, now that I"ve straightened that junk out, on to Turn 213 news!
Three Bloodfeuds and each challenge revenges. Three DAs and everyone loses.
Unless, of course, the replacement was of superior quality (like the RUGS often do
that!). Then everyone actually wins. Okay, more Boolean Algebra. (I know...nobody
understands such complex mathematics. I understand.) Twenty-two challenges posted.
More lost than won. Challenges posted went 9-13-0. Less than half won. Ain't that
disgusting! Of course, the matchups went 50/50. Some won, some lost. Ain't that
cool?
The only death came as a result of a matchup! Our condolences to Crip and Royal
Flush for the demise of Queen of Denail at the hands of My Day's Frustration. Better
watch out for Slaughter Priest. Crips Flush don't play fair. Well, that's what I
hear, anyway.
Only two compruns last turn. And, the managers not participating were: Drake,
Phat-Phat, Abraxis, Bartender, and Doc Mabuse. (Three of these were Vendetta Cartel!)
(Sorry, only two! The other's Vendett@United!)
Okay, on to my Turn 213 awards:
Best Manager goes to The Mun for his 5-0-0 turn with All-Star Nanas. What in blazes
is an "All-Star Nana"? I've been trying to figure that out for some time now. Just
thoguht I'd ask, ya know?
Whiner of the Month...again, Eddy the Gimp and Bob the Bard. Like we care who you
made anygry wherever you were before here. You're here now, and the past don't mean
much. Write, fight, whatever suits your fancy.
Most Improved Manager goes to Hammer!@ He posted a 3-2-0 on Turn 213 and appears to
be taking the Turf War III a little more seriously. Ya'll might want to watch it
'cause Hammer can be competitive when he chooses!
Funniest P-ad goes to Mannequin for his quip on Drew's Crew (managed by Abraxis). I
won't repeat it, but Mannequin thinks his own alliance is more detrimental to him than
the Vendett@United boys.
Okay, that's enough blathering for one month. Plus, I gotta go replace my quill
point. The darned hippgryph quills just ain't what they used to be. Until then,
remmeber...it ain't personal... it's just business.
Baphomet, TCB
**-----*-----*-----*-----*-----*-----**-----*-----*-----*-----*-----*-----**
* * * * TW 3 -- #6 * * * *
OK... Questions answered first:
Baphomet -- Art Pendragon earned 100 tps for his TV as a champ, which was added to the
*alliance* total, not the warrior or team. It is done.
Hammer -- My head was up somewhere dark... the rest of me was absent. As for TW 4,
there probably will *NOT* be one. That's why I changed the prize.
Skullagrim -- No problem changing leaders, but the last declaration for new teams must
by in by turn #216's newsletter, as stated in the rules (turn #208).
Now, if there are not more answers... on to the scores!

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Greetings Fellow 'Forkers and those visiting us for the Turf War. First off, thanks
to Paula for a good fight. Not looking forward to going through THAT again.
Secondly, I'm hoping to hold onto the throne for a bit, but there's an awful lot of
fight experience ranked just below me. My luck for being an overachiever, eh?
Lastly, I just want to say that I'm glad this is my home arena. Plenty of talented
teams, and a slew of great managers make me proud to call North Fork home. Best of
luck, folks!
-- Bear Acuda
SPY REPORT
Busy, busy, busy, lots of things happening in NORTH FORK this turn, and let's
start with a look at some of the teams. It seems the training can make the
difference, as MYSTIC ORC FEAST is pushed out of top team by ALL-STAR NANA'S, who
came from 4th with a 4-1-0 this turn. Now keep the taverns open late tonight, for
there are sorrows to drown for MYSTIC ORC FEAST, whose 1-4-0 this turn dropped them
by 8 into 9th. The SKELETON KEY guild has had a 4-1-0 turn and deserves to be
watched in the future. You never know where this kind of thing can lead. And let's
see, LATTE fought DEEP FRIED LARD and gained 20 points and contributed to COFFEE
RULES!'s 3-2-0. CLINTONLIKESBUSH has lost to AURRA SING, falling 11 points, while
helping make NATURAL B. KILLERS 2 a 2-3-0 turn. This week's Duelmaster bout was
between KING CRAB and our Duelmaster BEAR ACUDA, making a challenge. The attempts to
dethrone the Duelmaster have failed, and BEAR ACUDA remains NORTH FORK's top warrior
for another turn. Tell me, is nothing sacred? I have heard from unimpeachable
sources that The Welcome Wench uses trolls in their stew. Talk about gristle!
The crowd's roar, the smell of iron and leather, mixed with sweat, what more
could a warrior ask of life? Well, besides that. I also notice that the SKELETON
KEY stable was the most avoided team this turn. Come on NORTH FORK, what are you
afraid of? And guess who avoided SKELETON KEY stable the most? Believe it or not,
it was MY DAY. Anyone surprised? Well, sports fans, take notice that SWEET N LOW
from COFFEE RULES! was NORTH FORK's most challenged warrior this turn. Well now,
what do you expect when someone like GREEDY from RAT SALAD challenges down 17 points
to fight HELLUIN of DUR EDHEL? We're not surprised to hear that GREEDY overcame
HELLUIN, but I bet it would be interesting to hear why RAT SALAD made such a
challenge.
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. The Welcome Wench declares a free
round for ACE BAILEY and all of ROYAL FLUSH, for having revenged MY DAY's FRUSTRATION
for killing one of their comrades. Is it really true that NORTH FORK has more
dishwashers per capita that fighters? Just thought I'd ask...
Thought for the day, a new sword shines bright, but the notched sword sings the
sweetest. Well, I'm burning daylight here in NORTH FORK and I've a long road ahead
of me. Happy Trails. Until you see my quill in NORTH FORK again, farewell-- Alarond
the Scribe

PERSONAL ADS
Kat -- Thanks for the welcome, hope to be here for quite some time! -- Tuff Stuff
(Feathers Flyin')
Wasp -- Don't take that loss so hard, it had nothing to do with Hammer putting undo
champion stress on your shoulders. Sometimes even good match-ups don't make up for a
good warrior! -- (the humble) B.B. Cross .)
Dude Duke -- Nothing like my sister am I? Thought you had an easy downchallenge
there, didn't ya? Wrong answer, Pal!!! -- Minor Blue
P.S. Don't beat up my sister anymore :)
SME -- Just a little to fast for ya there, sis. -- B.B.C.
SMC -- Well sister, you got me, good fight! -- Jay
White Settler -- That's what you get you stinkin' white settler! (just kidding) How
about, how'd it feel to get your butt kicked, or maybe hey man hope I didn't hurt you
to bad. Anyway, see ya around. -- Kelso
Old Buddy -- Well so far so good. We'll see how many feathers I can ruffle. :) --
Tuff Stuff
Frustration -- Ah, yes, so well describing my abbreviated dueling career. 9-9-12-15-
17-9-13 with 50 learned skills, but with extreme shortage on decise and riposte make
for mediocrity. -- Queen of Denial
Mass Stupidity -- Certainly not our day. Time to tweak the strategy as we've been
seeing too much of your type. -- Ace Bailey
Daster Marque -- Well, I can tell by the ratings that you are way way above me in
skills already -- Ten C-O Meter
She-Hulk Hammer -- Don't you ever quit? Ouch, that hurt! -- Jack & Jill
Turf War Tuffies -- Get yer shots at my stable while they are in North Fork! I expect
to have a more permanent stable moved in for the New Year! -- Hammer
Mr Coffee -- Finally finished writing a return letter and mailed it August 25th from
Qatar! -- Hammer
The Unknown Spymaster -- Thanks for mentioning my stable's 3-2-0 turn last cycle! May
they do as well or better! -- Hammer
Mannequin -- If you are trying to have HAWKEYE HAMMER killed then you better get it
done soon! -- Hammer
The Mun -- Looks like FALCON HAMMER did NOT get his strategy revamped and KATIE hogged
the skills! -- Hammer
Crip -- Another unexpected surprise victory performance by SHE HULK HAMMER vs JACK &
JILL last cycle! -- Hammer
Goat -- Your two Down Challenges are noted! WASP HAMMER continues to disappoint while
YLW JACKET HAMMER continues to surprise! Interesting 1-1 results! -- Hammer
P.S. Death Fest awaits you!
Kat -- Congratulations to BEAR ACUDA for claiming the Turf War Throne! May you
continue to claim the Throne thru graduation! -- Hammer
P.S. Hopefully my stable will do their small part to contribute during the Turf War
stretch drive!
Art Pendragon -- Somehow, I thought you'd be a lot taller. Grand-looking, you know?
Not a little red-headed squirt. Oh, well, they also server who are little red-headed
squirts, and having a TV challenge to use is something to be proud of. I congratulate
you on that. -- Folmor Grigg
Viciousness -- Oh, yeah, I've had days like THAT. Gods. -- Pella Rees
Helluin -- It's always a pleasure to meet a good student who also loses. The problem
with people like you is, you get a bunch of skills and then you come back and defeat
me. I don't really go for that part. -- Rondol Quiglo
P.S. But I guess you understand, too.
For a Good Time -- You thought it was? *I* didn't. -- Nin Quire, bruised and sore
P.S. I guess the arena is the ultimate haven of the short Shews, isn't it? At least,
there seem to be more short Shews, and SHORTER Shews here than anywhere else I've ever
seen.
Baphomet -- Okay, the letter has not gone out as of when this is being written (a week
early). Sorry. Can I claim the F2F and Gen Con as excuses? 'Course, it'd be more
fun to make that claim if I actually got to GO to one of 'em, instead of just holding
down the office (which was not about to float away, really it wasn't) while everybody
ELSE went. I was favorably impressed with your handbook and would recommend it to new
players if asked. A substantial piece of work there. -- Jorja
Sweet N Low -- Good effort & luck for the future... -- A.D.
Wasted Effort -- As if to rub salt in the wounds of your wasted efforts against me, I
think the boss has requested a night foght for me this cycle... with my 11 WIT and 6
WILL I can hardly blame him!! -- O'Limey B R
Spawing of Spewn -- Not even close... well won... the boss wanted someone to have a
look see... almost a relief to se you are at least coderately mapable. -- Lud B
Jenna -- Too good for me... -- Ivan the beaten on
Sheldon -- A bad result for me means an excellent one for you. Congrats! -- Mutus B
Coffe Rules -- Thank you for the welcome, it's good to see the city of North Fork
again. -- Natural B. Killers
Nazareth -- You seem to have lost your advantage, or I gained mine. -- Mallory
RSI CS -- Resilient aren't you. -- Sir Killalot
Nahum -- You might not be on the team tommorow with another performance like that. --
The Juice
Trefot -- der Totmann. -- Hitler Youth
Vendetta@United -- As the old saying goes, imitation is the ultimate form of flattery,
you shall learn the meaning of Vendetta. -- Natural B. Killers
Kensai -- Damn STers. -- Cris Columbus
Crip -- How many arenas do we share now? 4? -- Natural B. Killers
Kat, Fizban, Dr. Mabuse, Master Darque, Phat Phat, Firehawk, Street Legal, Slaughter
Priest, Hammer. Nice to see the whole fandamily, who are those upstart copycats
(V.@.U.) anyway, dregs from the past? -- Maximillian
SCOMMS -- Whoa! Nice point jump! Planning on making this a contest I see. Ok, no
more null turns for the Kat Krew representing the Vendetta Cartel! -- Kat
Bob the Retard and Eddie the Limp; You mental widgets missed my point last month.
I'll not care to explain as the noble side of me determines a battle of wits with
unarmed opponents to be tasteless. -- The Clawed Caretaker of Care-Not, Kat
Latte -- I saw it coming, but REALLY! -- Kat
Galdr -- My condolences over your defeat, but my gratitude for ending Halle's slide.
She was getting awfully depressed. -- The Calico of Cool, Kat
Devout Christian -- Shouldn't you be taking on Sister Mary Clarance, rather than my
newbies? -- The Feline of Funtime, Kat
Ventetta Cartellians -- Five style masters, three awards, two of the top teams on the
move, and a kill! (granted, a freaky, unexplainable one, but a kill nonetheless) Way
to apply the pressure! Let's keep it up! -- The Russian Blue of Rah-Rah, Kat
Dastardly Crip -- You probably see it coming, but I'm looking forward to the rubber
match between my 'fighting fish' and your 'crabby patty'. -- The Maniacal Manx, Kat
North Fork Parry Riposte's -- Come now, subtract my warrior and Rippers are 4-24-0 in
the last ten turns. Granted, I despise the style, but a 14% W/L? People are going to
think y'all are pushovers! -- The Tabby of Tally, Kat
*Turf War III New Warriors* Carcharoth and Ithilnaur will fight for Dur Edhel; also
Eldhwen will be my new champion.
P.S. Asmo, why is it that the Individual change scores don't add to equal the team
change score? (Example: Fellowship's of SCOMMS (+1700) pt gain in TW3 #5. What are
the extra 560 pts for?)
She Hulk Hammer -- I shall avoid you forever. -- Talotso's Ghost
P.S. Bad things happen to TP's who can't take a few hits
Rondol Quiglo -- Four skills, wow, maybe I'll win a fight someday soon. -- Hellun
To All -- Kill@t Will is back and they are ready for action. So step back and enjoy
the show, my friends. Ok so let's get this party started. See you at the sands.
That is all. -- Voodoo
To All -- My name is AurraSing. I'm the newest member of Kill @t Will, and I'm hoping
I do well and make my manager proud, also the ones who trained me. Zinella Azron of
Mojo P@trol and also Dagor Savonaleon from that camp. We are all under VooDoo's
tutalege. Thank you all my friends. Be sure not to miss my singing with my weaopns.
Till I see you on the sands later. -- Aurra Side
Hammer -- Looking forward to your snailmail. -- Mr. Coffee
Oz The All Powerful -- Congrats on your 400th win, a 4-1 turn, and all around Ozness!
-- Mr. Coffee
Crip -- Congrats (a little late) on 1000 fights in Northfork. What an accomplishment!
What is that? 15 years? WOW! -- Mr. Coffee
Trebors -- Welcome back. -- Mr. Coffee/Coffee Rules!
Baphomet -- Then there were two. Remember it's not whether we win or lose but that
they remember two stood against many. -- Mr. Coffee
AD -- How about correcting Bev. Inc's SM total to read 4, not 3? Thanks. -- Mr.
Coffee
Kat -- No big deal. Maybe you can give me something next time. I give you 5 skills,
I get a win. Hmph! -- Mr. Coffee
The Jesuits -- I can't kill on command or most of my fights would be death matches.
Sorry I couldn't help you. -- Mr. Coffee
Baphomet -- Your 0-2 is better than the Bartender packing up his watered down bottles
of cheap booze and getting on the first wagon leaving Northfork. -- Mr. Coffee
Baphomet -- And it's definitely better than offering Drake a spot on my TWIII tea,
with a cert even, and him not even acknowledging the offer. -- Mr. Coffee
Ed, The Scribe, All at RSI -- Good job and thanks. -- Mr. Coffee
Thank you. :) -- Ed.
Leviathan, Corpulent -- What was that?! That was no fun. Who wants to battle
teammates? Yuck! And somehow we were lucky in both and shouldn't have won either. --
Hourglass and Humbug
Wyrd -- You had the wrong weapon! You may as well have taken an axe to me! Salute.
-- Wyrd
The Fisher King -- I sincerely thak you for the challenge and the double points for
the win. You are the man, er ah, woman! -- Courage
Osloben Benboben -- Did you think that because I am female that I would be easy? Was
I? Oz loves those double points for lost challenges, me, too! I feel good! --
Rainbow
Mannequin -- Well, the spell still worked for Oz and Father! Where were you last
round. Hmmmm. -- Oz The All-Puzzled (recasts spell)
Fellowship of The SCOMSS -- Well done! A gentle move into first place! If only we
had done well enough this time to have stayed there. The good, the bad and the ugly.
-- Oz The All Excited and Concerned
Avoiding Knights Templar? Chicken Little? -- Oz The All Avoiding (cluck, cluck,
cluck)
Folmor Grigg -- DARN! My manager remembered you from Noblish Island and thought he'd
pull a fast one for a push toward Duelamster. Well, once again, he proves himself an
idiot! -- Art Pendragon
Art -- Keep running off and you go night fighting. -- Baphomet
Baphomet -- Like you'd do that. I'm your first TV, and the best on this team. I'm
kinda indispensible right now. (Not to mention the Champ here.) -- Art
Art -- Okay, point taken. Sheesh! -- Baphomet
Fat-Boy -- Twenty-two minutes? I ain't seen the fight sheet yet, but I'm real anxious
to see that one! -- Sir Galahad
CFH -- If you wanted to konw the styles in my stable, all you had to do was ask. I'd
have told you! Now, go play in someone else's sandbox for a while. Otherwise, I
might take the attacks personally and then we'd be right back where we started four
years ago. Know what I mean? -- Baphomet
Jorja -- Thanks. Haven't received your messenger yet, but am eagerly awaiting its
arrival. Just hope it's not Karrigit (they have a really nasty smell) and ogre's are
just plain FUGLY! -- Baphomet the Grateful
*A.D.* -- My new champ will be...*Marred Teeny*! -- The Bartender, for Mixed-up Mixers
All -- Sorry to miss last turn. I wanted to get my abyssmal showing off the Mr.
Coffee awards! -- The Bartender
AD -- I declare for Vendett@United. My champion is Sara Fister.
Goat -- What's up with the woodpile?

Invitation to Newbie Managers
by Hammer
As a Captain of the Vendetta Cartel, Hammer has recently dissolved the Vendetta
Cartel Crimson Ascension Family. Lady Martilyo and Rook are NO LONGER members of the
Vendetta Cartel.
The Vendetta Cartel is divided into "Families" under the leadership of Captains;
who have been appointed by the VC God Father known throughout the duelingland as
Master Darque.
Hammer is now the Captain of the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe and the veteran
manager extends an invitation for prospective membership as a Probate [ONLY 2 Probate
positions are available in the VC Tarantula Tribe at the present time!] to any Newbie
Manager who qualifies under the following conditions:
1. Newbie Manager MUST have Online Access for Email communications! [Hammer is
presently living in Qatar and Lieutenants Maximillian and Firehawk are living in
Canada; so Email Communication is a MUST for consideration!]
2. Newbie Manager MUST have the time and funds to create 2 new stables to be
placed in 2 separate Slow Arenas [the cost of running 1 stable in a Regular Arena!]
to actively participate on a monthly basis with the other 3 T-Tribe members of the
Vendetta Cartel!
3. Newbie Manager MUST have the DESIRE to be an Active Member of the Vendetta
Cartel as a Tarantula Tribe trainee aka Probate; developing his/her managerial skills
under the mentorship of Hammer and the other VC members; thus proving themselves
worthy to become Vendetta Cartel Lieutenants in the Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe!
The Vendetta Cartel Tarantula Tribe lives by the Feud; thereby prospective
Probates are forewarned that membership guarantees instant Friends and instant
Enemies!
Any prospective Probates who:
1) seek to improve their managerial insights/abilities under the counsel of
Hammer and other Vendetta Cartel members
2) desire to be active members of an Active Alliance that WILL NOT Dissolve in a
Few Months; building lasting friendships while enjoying Feuding with Common Enemies
3) who enjoy sending their gladiators to Tournaments and would strive to see
their manager name listed among the TV and TC winners in the Mailer Tourney
Newsletters as a member of the Vendetta Cartel
MUST DO THE FOLLOWING:
Send an Email to HammerDM@fastermail.com to introduce yourself and provide Hammer
with a short Bio of your managerial successes/failures and favorite/least favorite
fighting styles; with a listing of your active stable/stables for Hammer to verify in
the online newsletters.
Hammer will choose the 2 prospective Probates for membership in the Vendetta
Cartel Tarantula Tribe on the basis of who he decides will be most suited [to Hammer's
purposes as the T-Tribe Captain!] from among those responding to this All Arena Ad on
a first response/first acceptance or rejection basis!
-- Hammer; Vendetta Cartel Captain/WordSmith and WeaponSmith of the Vendetta

Our next Winter Face-to-Face will be held on Martin Luther King weekend, Friday

Rural Rd--this is the same hotel as last year). Room rates are $139.00 per night,
1-4 occupancy, which includes breakfast. The rooms are blocked. The reservations
number is 480-897-7444; tell them you're with the "Reality Simulations Face to Face

sure you reserve your room before then!
Room rates include a full cooked-to-order breakfast and a complimentary two-hour
manager's reception. There is a free shuttle to the airport, as well as free parking.
The hotel is located down the freeway in Tempe. All rooms have high speed internet
(for an extra charge). There is a fitness center, jacuzzi, and pool, and of course a
bar and Mexican restaurant inside the hotel. And there's Denny's right across the
street. Look for transportation info in the tournament information sheet.
The tournament information sheet/strategy sheet should be out sometime in late
November/early December.
If you haven't been to a Face-to-Face before, you're overdue. If you have,
you'll be back. Don't miss this one, it'll be a blast! See you there!
