Just so everyone knows...I have 55 Roll-up certs in the pot. There are 37 teams
registered. This means I have 18 Certs left over.
After discussing this with the managers who sent more than they needed to, they
(AND I MEAN THEY) decided that the extras should go to the team which is in FIRST
PLACE at the mid-point of the Turf War.
I would personally like to thank Oz, Master Darque, and Toker for their
awards...they are the managers who put up the extra certs.

Mysteries
Hanghin stood silently in the darkened room, waiting for more orders to come.
He held no illusions about his role or his status. He was required to be obedient
without question, that was a lesson that had been painstakingly delivered.
The room lightened perceptibly as a soft blue glow began to spread in the middle
of the room. Dropping to his knees, the old form prostrated himself before the
light. His hands were outstretched to be as close as possible to the light, without
touching it, another detail which had been "reinforced" to him.
"You may look up."
His head swung up, finding the harsh features which made his stomach lurch every
time he saw them. The face was of the one he now called "Master". His eyes searched
for his true goal, but saw no sight of his Virilia in the background was to be found.
"Report?'
"All is moving toward readiness master. Those who you have named are being
watched closely, with special attention being paid to the 'Rookie Confederation'.
They had an adequate turn on round 1, but per your instructions we have not
interfered to date. The Desolate Empire may need special attention as well, my
master."
"I see...."
"Master?'
"Are you now my equal? Do you claim to understand my purpose? Do you presume
to be able to surmise what warrants *MY* attention?!"
Trying hard to burrow into the earth, the weight of his mistake pressed down on
the old man as he groveled. His face tucked into the ground, he could not see the
maniacal smile on the apparition's image. The laughter which echoed through the room
served as a poignant counter-point to the screams which began.
<Offices of the Pink Playhouse>
"Tell me some good news."
"Sorry, sir. No word on the paint."
"WHAT?! I have been to the new No-Tourney Arena. I know they are just about
done out there! Surely everything that is needed has already been bought."
"Quite correct sir. But unfortunately, that has been so successful to date that
the call has gone out to start a SLOW arena with the same rules. As such, the
merchants say all the supplies are already beginning to route to this new arena."
Master Beru leaned back in his chair, elevating the front legs of the chair off
the floor and hearing a warning "creak" from the wood. Reconsidering his position,
he set the chair back on all four legs, cursing in his head at the lack of paint.
Once again it appeared he would have to wait.
"Any word on the actual city?"
"None sir. Although there are plenty of rumors. It appears the arena will be
one of the grandest architectural marvels ever. Three competitive bids have been
made already and are all supposed to be grandiose on a scale unseen before. At
least, that is what is said."
Master Beru let that sink in. "Grandiose" sounded like "highly profitable" for
the right people. He smelled a big payoff.
"Do those who have said so much, also happen to know what would be used to make
this arena 'grandiose'?"
Arden suppressed a smile as he instead put a look of surprise on his face. He
was amazed how easily he could draw in his prey sometimes. The bait was taken, now
he merely had to set the hook.
"Well, incidentally...."
<Dressing Room B, The Pink Playhouse>
The sounds were soft and mostly consisted of gasps of breath, although other
"telling" sounds escaped occasionally. The candle light cast shadows across the
small cot in the back where two forms moved, the starting point of the sounds. Their
statures were small, but both had the muscled bodies of those used to hard physical
activity.
Their fitness allowed their activities to continue for several minutes. When
their movements finally slowed to a halt, their bodies lay entwined around each other
intimately. The entire rendezvous was over in less than an hour.
As the two figures finished dressing, the female pulled a cloak up over her
features. Leaning forward, she kissed the male deeply, lingering for a moment
longer. With a last lustful look, she turned and took the servant's route out of the
building.
Watching her leave, the short man lasciviously imagined running up to her and
pulling her into another dark corner to have his fill of her once again. But they
had both decided that they had to be strict about their meetings. It was only
because his training schedule had been changed that she had agreed to meet him here.
Of course it did add a bit of excitement that they could be interrupted at any
moment, but he did not want her to suffer. Finishing with the buckles on his boots,
he stamped his feet firmly home. Swinging his jacket around, he slid his arms into
the fine fabric. As he moved down the hall, he heard the called greetings from the
other workers of the playhouse.
Seeking out the director of the next play, he dodged a piece of the last set as
he approached to get directions.
"Napoleon, good. We are about to get started. Have you read over your part?"
"I have indeed. Let me know when you are ready."
"Excellent! I don't think it is a difficult part, although it is meant to be
the lead. Really, where Master Beru gets these plays from I will never know....
JACKSON!! STOP RIGHT THERE! Excuse me. WHAT ARE YOU DOING!!"
As he walked away, the short actor walked over to the stack of scripts on the
edge of the stage, picking one up for the first time. Flipping through, he looked
for his parts, reading spots as he went. Flipping back to the front, he wondered
what this waste of paper was called. On the front in big letters it proclaimed
itself as, "Hamlet".
SPY REPORT
I was going on vacation, see? Surf, sun... But what do those bums say? "Hit
the road, Debby Tonte. DOUBLE-X needs a spyreport." Oh, well. Too bad, CHEERS, but
DOOMWOLVES was just too good to be stopped. I couldn't believe it. Did MYSTIC ORC
FEAST really go up by 26? If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth...
Gross! SECOND BANANAS had like a really albendranius week! Those hunks got a 3-2-0
and wound up as 6th team! I couldn't believe it. Did ABYSMAL RITES really go up by
15? If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth... Gross! OF WOLF AND MAN
had like a really albendranius week! Those hunks got a 3-2-0 and wound up as 12th
team! Really, just how far can one team drop in one round? CHEERS dropped 14, which
I think's more than all the other teams combined! I couldn't believe it. Did EMPIRE
RISING really go up by 15? If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth...
Gross! BORN TO MACK had like a really albendranius week! Those hunks got a 3-2-0
and wound up as 20th team! I couldn't believe it. Did OLD HABITS really go up by
12? If only those guys didn't have so may missing teeth... Gross! Wanna hear about
a real loser? Listen to this--NATURAL B. KILLERS 2 got 1-3-0 and dropped 15. Didn't
see much of them after the fights! INDIFFERENCE had like a really albendranius week!
Those hunks got a 3-2-0 and wound up as 30th team! See if I even talk to any of
those losers in STRANGE BREW again! Didja see where they got 2-3-0? Somebody musta
won a lotta fights! Wanna hear about a real loser? Listen to this--THE SERPENTS got
1-4-0 and dropped 20. Didn't see much of them after the fights! Really, just how
far can one team drop in one round? OBSCURE LEGENDS dropped 25, which I think's more
than all the other teams combined! Wanna hear about a real loser? Listen to
this--THE BEAR'S PAW got 1-4-0 and dropped 20. Didn't see much of them after the
fights! Cut this out and put it in your scrapbooks, DARK PINNACLE! 'Cause they got
3-0-0 and moved up to 33rd! MVP award for ICHORID? SALEM'S LOT's proud of him after
beating BOQ and getting 24 points. Talk about yer big time losers! DON KING got
smashed by CUP OF TOE, and lost 22 points! Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the
most popular guy in all DOUBLE-X. He got the most challenges. (But what about
proposals?) Like, OPAI must be pretty gutsy! She challenged the Duelmaster from OLD
HABITS. Does this gal have a death wish or what! And I was just getting used to the
ex-Duelmaster's habit of...(!) Oh well, welcome OPAI. Aren't DARK PINNACLE proud.
(Oh, my.) I hear the top team insists all their warriors get nine hours sleep. They
want photogenic fighters for PR photos.
AAARRGH!!! I HATE SPYREPORTING!!! Sorry. I just had to say it. ABYSMAL RITES
was the most avoided team. Is a 16-25-1 record really that scary? Hhmph! What kind
of warriors are DREADBLADE? ABYSMAL RITES, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one,
can't get them to accept an invitation! Ooh! Did ORC PLAGUE really know what he was
doing when he challenged PROHIBITION? A 10-4-2 speaks volumes. (Zontoni said that.
I don't know what it means.) Do you think ORC PLAGUE knew something before he
challenged PROHIBITION? He got a win and 9 points. What will the guy do next?
People were asking me did MY SLEEP REALLY challenge LAST CALL? (all right, maybe
they didn't, but it sounded good!) It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but
LAST CALL wants me to write about it since he was subdued by MY SLEEP. Satisfied?
SISTER SAM must not be a good enough fighter to get in fair fights. She challenged
JOHNATHAN THOMPSON. 11 is a big difference. (Well, that's what they tell me.) I
thought SISTER SAM showed great skill and promise when she overcame JOHNATHAN
THOMPSON. All right, so I slept through it! Big deal!
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? How cruel! BAAL'S MINIONS heartlessly sent his to STORMSTRIKE certain
fate in the Dark Arena. Is a 5-6-0 bad or something? THE RAMPAGING BULK really
fought hard against ASP. That'll teach THE SERPENTS not to go and kill any of
DRAKE'S COMICS' guys again, huh! GAELIC STORM let DON KING of ROYAL FLUSH kill IRISH
CAR BOMB unpunished. That's really low. (Even if IRISH CAR BOMB was kind of a
jerk...) JETHRO bloodfeuded (is that a word?) SWAMP MUDD HAMMER for revenge over some
guy's bad fortune. Was it really worth it? What if they had a fight and nobody
showed up? I'd be out of a job, that's what!!!
I really didn't, you know, study when I was a kid. Who would've guessed I'd be
a famous Spyreporter? I gotta leave. DOUBLE-X is like such a dump, and you guys
smell too much! Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby
Tonte

Sister Mary Sarah -- That DM habit looks very nice on you. Congrats. -- Oz The All
Envious
Killing Joke -- How nice of you to call. I needed that easy one. Bah. -- Humbug
Father O -- Congratulations on your TC performance with Sister Sam. Superb! -- Oz
The All Excited
Spectre -- I shall tell my fellow Munchkins of your aggressive transgressions. -- BOQ
Devout Christian -- You'd best go with magic. That prayer stuff doesn't seem to work
for you. -- Magic Wand
Wow! JGW had a 4-1! Was that his first? (smirk) -- Oz The All Mischievous
Norm -- I wouldn't watch you on TV if my life depended on it! So there! -- Miss
Gulch
Mr. Confused Crip -- Mayhaps thee art befuddled? (Great 3-2, BTW. It is good to
have the real Crip back.) Marriage does that. Slugbait lost no character in the
late rounds in Tempe and does have a great TV working for The Fellowship. It is
probably that west-coast Mannequin fellow of whom you are thinking who sacrificed his
SCOMSS aimer TV to the gods (and TGG) in order to bring home three personal TC's.
Greedy, greedy. -- Oz The All Envious (and falsely accused)
A little Storm is not going to hold up the great cat. -- King Of Beasts
The Opera? Now who would have thought that, Manager? Nice choice of champ on the
first round with Wozzeck. Do you think he can win any? Thank the gods, for you that
is, that Wozzeck does not qualify. If you need some help figuring out this game and
event, I understand that Street Legal is available for tutoring. -- Oz The All
Helpful
Mannequin -- Death, J. Peterman, and The Almighty are beyond me. I shall, however,
discourse with Glenda, the Good Witch Of The South. -- Oz The All Humble
Slugbait, Crip, Oz, Mannequin, Soultaker, Snuln -- and to you Father O -- a nice
first round. But NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Second place sucks! -- The SCOMSS Scintillating
Scribe
Father O'Malley -- We of the Iron Council do not consider each other on social levels
above or below each other, we are all equals inside the Council. We do not share
that same view with others however. Andorians and other such pitiful rabble are
normally beneath our prescence or are simply ignored and beaten into submission and
slavery when we deem to notice them. As you will soon find out, The Iron Council
will eventually be here in full force. And this competition will come to a crashing
and devestating end when we think it is time. -- Tripwire
SCOMMS -- Speaking of unworthy! Nicely done challenging your own teammates to ensure
the throne stays in your team's hands. Is that another "honorable" Andorian
tradition? Never would I dishonor my warriors or nation by bringing that yellow and
cowardly stain to the sands. -- Tripwire
Malt -- Nicely done. Bad matchup for me in my first fight. I am sure we will see
each other in the future -- Samglant
Chris Turner -- Forgive my clumsy attempts at offense. I am still working out the
kinks. It seems that second minute was much better than the first, no? -- Asylum
Rigormortis -- Man I love the sound of the broadsword rending flesh, don't you? --
Fade to Black
Sister Mary Sueellen -- Whoopsie! I'm not as think as you bad I am! -- Justice for
All
Siege Best -- Didn't give you a chance to use that nice attack. Hope we meet again
soon! -- Blackened
DESOLATE EMPIRE TAKES TURN 1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dark Knights -- Let's keep this up, brothers!! I have a replacement for Heathen if
we need one. I fear Heathen may have some difficulties and may not be able to assist
us. Let me know asap!! -- DK Blackstorm
All -- Ok, my first champ was ineligible, so I'm not declaring Medee(5642) as my
Champion. (49 points going into Turn 1) -- Manager
Drake -- Thanks for the welcome. -- Wretch
Rookier Confederation -- Good start, all. Let's just keep it going now. -- Wretch
Dark Knight Kon -- Thanks for the best wishes. A very impressive first turn you and
your Desolate Empire had. Congrats. -- Wretch
Father O'Malley -- Mass is for those weak minded souls that require hope. Life and
death is decided on the sands. There is no escape from the knowledge that death is
just one moment away. We welcome you and yours to the church of the sands were
swords are welcome and bibles are not. Where all soul are lost, no hope, no dreams,
just death and pain await. -- Wretch
Two -- It's is a sad thing that you did to me but I can handle it even though I don't
like to lose. :) -- Hops
Badger -- A cross and irritated badger you must be after that fight. -- High Test
Samglant -- Not a every good start for you but another malty beverage is just the
cure for you. -- Malt
Polaris -- If you are gonna beat me at least you could have been a better teacher.
Could have been my fault I guess I might have lingered a little long over the ale
barrel last night. -- Ale
Woody -- So close but I guess that doesn't count. Seems you keep bumping into my
team, this time to your advantage. May the next time be to ours. -- Pilsner
Court Jester -- I am unhappy in Ahringhol...but...at least I was a good
teacher...even in death! -- Ghost of Bane
Malaria -- After that fight, I might need some quinine. -- Roger L'Beau
Stiffler -- You get the win, I get the skills..or most of them. -- Antione L'Joi
Chris Perry -- They said I was cowering, but I was avoiding kicking the snot out of
an alliance mate. -- Michele Clough (sheepishly making excuses)
Smokescreen -- I was blinded by the mist...and no wonder you outjumped me with that
rating! -- Galius
Swamp Syndicate -- I apologize for such a poor showing last turn. Hopefully, I won't
make you sorry you joined forces with me. I'm working on things as I write this. --
Baphomet (the blunderer)
Kon -- While I was dismayed at losing Bane, I am quite pleased with his replacement.
No worries, though...you'll get to meet him in a couple turns. I own Court Jester
for the next 3 anyway. Of course, you could sit him out...but...would you really do
that? -- Baphomet (looking forward to the points) (grin)
Baphomet -- This is my declaration for my stable "smoked out" to fight under the
banner of the Desolate Empire! -- DK Toker mgr. Smoked Out!!!
P.S. Use the extra roll-ups for the halfway prizes.
DE -- Good first round! Keep it up. I won't miss a turn again, my apologies for
missing this one. It snuck up on me. -- DK Toker
DK Heathen -- I'm back, had some things going on. Letter enroute! -- DK Toker
DK Wasby -- Let's handle the cowards! You know who. Miss you, bro! -- DK Toker
DK Dok Sik -- Write me or call, foolio! -- Toker
DK Blackstorm -- Got your emails, brother! Good first round! Let's
keep it going.
DK Goat -- You old goat! Call me so we can discuss your old compatriots! Let's
smash all who stand before us. -- DK Toker
All -- This should prove to be fun! Good luck to all! -- Toker
Abraxis -- I won't say anything in the p-ads but check the diplo! I did see you and
CFH patched things up. That's good considering the things you told me. Let's just
say the DE is better off without you! You know forget the diplo, cuz you're not
worth the time! Coward! -- DK Toker
Dark Knights -- Provided RSI finally sent my cert to Baphomet and he scores me, we
should be in first place by my calculations. Good solid initial turn! Do not allow
it to lull you into relaxation -- if anything we will be targets now and must
maintain the dominant attitude of the Desolate Empire! Be strong in seeking glory!!
-- DK Kon, DEA
Baphomet -- I must admit it is frustrating to think I may not receive my points
because of RSI's error -- I wrote them twice about the cert, in the beginning and end
of December, so you should have had it by now! I'll send the money to your street
address if you need me to! -- DK Kon
P.S. Incidentally, Bane was accidentally killed so you have my condolences. I will
prepare Court Jester the best I can for Galius' bloodfued.
Dark Knight Wasby -- It's about time! Where is Toker and Heathen? Good first turn--
get settled in and show no mercy! This one's for real. -- DK Kon
DK Blackstorm -- Good show, Bro! If we can keep pace we'll outdistance the
competition in no time! -- DK Kon
DK Dok Sik -- Not bad for a series of matchups, now show me what you can do with a
few creative challenges! Yeah, those guys over there (nods to competition). -- DK
Kon
Goat -- Dammit, this is no time to be hanging out at the Horn-n-Wench! We need your
sword here now! Step up, dude!! -- DK Kon, rallying the troops
All -- The FTF saw the demise of our beloved Lord Desolate -- please observe a moment
of silence...into the void I hope you'll give a warm welcome to Turf War Tuffie, our
newest recruit with a nod to Hammer for the inspiration. -- DK Kon
Rookie Confederation -- Sandbagging the avoids for the team mention points? I
thought perhaps you were a group of veterens in disguise, but that's a rookie move if
I ever saw it! -- DK Kon, amused
P.S. Since there's no penalty for it maybe I'll give it a try myself -- it's not as
though I need to avoid anyone! I welcome all challengers!!
Queen of Tarts -- Perhaps it's time to abdicate the throne -- the next generation is
now! -- Heir Apparent
P.S. You taught well!
My Pillow -- MY pillow would never... wait, that's your strategy huh? Lull your
opponent to sleep then exchange their weapon for a feather! Care to try that again
when I'm better prepared for you? -- Lonely Son
Mgr. of Black -- I actually though Brianna was a TP! Oops!! Looking forward to the
bloodfued. -- Wretch
Abraxis -- I've heard good things about you and CFH and could come to like you one
day -- don't ruin it by insulting me! Wasby is not the only Dark Knight in the
Empire -- when Goat looks around he finds Blackstorm, Dok Sik, and myself standing
beside him as well!! -- DK Kon, DEA
Evicserator -- Very impressive! Ouch that hurt! -- Tempus
Baph -- Drake's Hardware declares Jugglenot as its champion. -- Drake
Prince Igor -- A Queen apparently beats a Prince. Or, at least, she beats the guy
that beats the Prince. -- Da Ting
Greedy -- Bulk not like Greedy. Greedy too greedy for win and hit too hard. -- The
Rampaging Bulk
Infernal Cabaret's Manager -- Well, I was trying to smack Belerus in the arm, but his
face kept getting in the way. Sorry about that. -- Blunder Woman
SS Guard -- Right, time I retired. -- Booster Pyrite
Ten is Raquet -- Bulk not understand what you mean by "misunderstand". Bulk's
dictionary lost last time Bulk clean room. -- The Rampaging Bulk
Drama Queen -- Geez, and that after I'd bought you dinner and took you dancing. -- Da
Ting
Crip -- I thought the brutal challenges were *because* you'd left things alone. --
Drake
Hammer -- Hey, if mail's got to go half-way around the world it might as well take
the scenic route. -- Drake
P.S. Why do you have to be leaving dead pretenders all over the place? Not only
could someone trip over one but I liked that band.
Words of Wisdom: "The light at the end of the tunnel is a high-powered sunlamp. You
now have skin cancer. Have a nice day."
Dark Knight Wasby the Great, D.E. -- I thought 'swiftly and with no remorse' was
considered and offensive tactic. I think for defense you're wanting 'steadfastly and
with great vigilance. Of course, good luck fitting all of that onto the strategy
sheet. -- Drake
P.S. Your name's too long. I'm going to call you Fred.
Father O'Malley -- Wouldn't it be more useful for her to bring soap to the unwashed
masses? -- Drake
P.S. What the heck have you done that you need to make a confession every two weeks?
P.P.S. I can't find Everlasting Peace on my map of Alastari. Is that anywhere near
Snowbound?
Liam -- We have one more slot that we can fill. Email me at d_spinella@msn.com or
send a diplo with contact info to find out more. -- Master Beru
Kat -- BBQ, eh? Hmm.... Count me out, kinda fearful of big fires.... -- Joan of Arc
Father O'Malley -- I can only speak for my group, but be fearful of several of the
guys, they have been known to enjoy hitting on women, even if they are Sisters. --
Master Beru
Catha -- Well met! I was nervous for a while there. -- George Washington
Kensai -- You know, I expected that to be a little closer.... I need to look into a
refund on this sling shot. -- David
Ripper -- Fun dance. I am glad we enjoyed ourselves, but now, I think we should
focus on those others in the initiates FROM OTHER TEAMS who are part of the contest.
-- Joan of Arc
Stormstrike -- I guess I outmanuevered the strike, eh? -- Irwin Rommel
Arsenic -- I didn't notice the 'old lace'? Did I miss it, or was that
underneath...well, you know. -- Napoleon Bonaparte
All -- I wish to thank all those whose hard work went into making last turn such a
huge success for us. Please be assured that your sacrifices have not gone unnoticed.
We look forward to being able to thank all of you again soon. -- Master Beru
Sister Mary Sarah -- Well done -- Good to see another SCOMSS on the throne. -- Don
King
Baphomet -- I guess I undeclare Don King for ineligibility under the Turf War Rules.
I will punish myself by not declaring a champion until a new character joins the
team. -- Crip
Suculant -- Is that all you've got. Almost like you've been hibernating through the
winter. -- Jack & Jill
Madame Butterfly -- Some of us actually fight consistently in the arena and improve!

advice, strategy and insight he wants. -- CFH

Master Darque -- Can you help me get in touch w/ Firehawk? -- CFH
Goat -- I heard D.E. holds a raffle to get its new members. -- CFH/Rat Salad/HDFA'$

The Council of Lords would like to propose a rule change in ADM and Primus. We
propose that Lord Protectors ranked "Grand Champions" and below (ADM) and "The Tower
Guard" and below (Primus) be allowed to fight in the Dark Arena. This would not
impact the top rankings or title match. Any managers who never got his fill or shot
at fighting Gateway monsters would have it as an option. We believe it might spark
some interest in the ADM/Primus realm for some managers. If interested, speak up in
the newsletters or on forums under the "rules changes" thread and let RSI know. This
could even be something to try for 12 months and then be re-evaluated. What say you,
managers of Ghea? -- The Icelord sends....

HDFA Mission Statement
"Show me the money!"
This is the battle cry of a newly formed collection of like-minded individuals:
The High Dolla' Free Agent$. We are not a tough guy alliance: No...we offer no
battle without reward. We search for victory and the prizes and accolades that
follow. We are motivated by winning and will freely use whatever means necessary to
obtain our currency. No stuffy rules, no mandates, no constitutions, no leaders,
only a few objectives:
1) Win as often as possible
2) Celebrate freely and revel in your victories; the more meaningless the
victory the more we celebrate. Highsiding and chest thumping are encouraged.
Ostentatious endzone celebrations with prop usage are encouraged, regardless of
fines, penalties, suspensions or arrest by local authorities. It is important to let
your opponent know how great you are; more importantly, you must let your own
alliance mates know how great you are.
This is a 1-up alliance, let the performance of your fellow Free Agent$ motivate
you. If a Free Agent wins a TV, win 2; if a Free agent wins a contest, win a more
prestigious one.
Current members of the HDFA include: CFH and Abraxis. Inquires can be directed
to: CFH/Rat Salad DM 47
