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 Captain of the alliance in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter. 2. Indicate in the newsletter which Captain/alliance you will join. 3. Announcements made on the D2 Forums or elsewhere will not be accepted. Captains are responsible for: 1. Verifying/authorizing, in the North Fork newsletter those who wish to participate under the banner of their alliance. (Lack of participant indication of joining and/or lack of lack of Captain confirmation will delay a team's participation in the Turf War.) 2. Distribution of prizes should their alliance win the Turf War. 3. Submit two (2) RSI Roll-Up Certificates to participate. (Note: Captains may, if they wish, submit certs for all potential members of their alliance.) Participating managers who are not Captains must: 1. Submit two (2) RSI Roll-Up Certificates to participate (Unless already submitted by Captain. Note: extras will not be returned, but will go into the winning pool of prizes.) 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 an RSI Gift Certificate is received, and participant indication and captain confirmation are posted in the North Fork newsletter. 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 in the newsletter 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 (including team point adjustments) from the Turf War (so be sure to take any multiple teams OFF of Team Maintenance and be certain not to run any other team warriors). d. Scoring will NOT be retroactive for teams/alliances that do not properly declare or get captain confirmation 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 score 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. (Note: the intent is to have a very thorough set of rules so that few decisions, if any, are required from the moderators.) Scoring will be as follows for Fights: Win Loss Kill Die Up Challenge +2 -2 +5 -5 Down Challenge "Challenger" -2 -2 -5 -5 Down Challenge "Challenged" +2 0 +5 -5 Match Up +1 -1 +1 -5 Bloodfeud Challenge (Up or Down) +2 -5 +5 -10 Champion ** x2 x2 x2 x2 Dark Arena* +10 -5 xx xx Tournament Death*** -5 Halfway (6 round total) best alliance win/loss percentage **** Final (12 round total) alliance w/l% percentage **** *After 2nd win in DA, warrior scores no additional points for wins, ** A Champions double score applies to his score only - not to the opponent. *** No warrior may be substituted without the proper use of the DA or arena death or death in a tournament or graduation. There must be a maximum of five only on a team at any point and time. (The penalty for such substitution is -10 points.) Points awarded for tournament participation are 3 for any entrant, 15 total (e.g. not 3 + 15) for a TV and 25 total for a TC. Death in a tournament negates any tournament points gained and results in a-5 score. ***** Halfway points scored are 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 5, 5 (etc) for 1st, 2nd, 3rd (etc). (to qualify for any of these points the alliance must have fought 75% of its possible fights.) Final 12 Round points scored are 40, 30, 20, 15, 10, 5, 5, 5 (etc) for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd (etc). (to qualify for any of these points the alliance must have fought 75% of its possible fights.) Special Scoring Considerations for the Turf War are as follows: Spy Report mention (team name only) +2 1. No matter how many mentions or stylemasters, an individual team can score only +2 in each category per round Style Master +2 1. No matter how many mentions or stylemasters, an individual team can score only +2 in each category per round 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 have fought at least one previous fight in the North Fork (DM47 arena) to be able to be declared a champion. 5. A Champion can be declared on any round and point factors will begin that same turn. (Must meet above 4 conditions prior to declaring) Bloodfeuds: 1. Bloodfeuds will score points on all four (4) turns. 2. There is no limit to which warrior may bloodfeud or how often. Downchallenges: 1. A downchallenge occurs when a warrior challenges a warrior with less recognition points. 2. The Duelmaster is exempted from any downchallenge rules. All challenges by the DM, no matter the recognition, except bloodfeuds, will be considered as up or equal challenges. 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 15 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 25 points. This bonus will apply EACH time a warrior(s) win such status. 4. Points awarded for tournament participation are 3 for any entrant, (15 total for a TV and 25 total for a TC.) However, death in a tournament will result in a -5 score for that tournament. (If a warrior TV's and is subsequently killed in a tournament the total points scored are -5 for that tournament.) 5. Points for entrants, TVs, TCs, and tournament deaths 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 five (5) teams allowed per alliance for the Turf War VII. 4. The Dark Arena may be used on the first FE turn (e.g. no arena or tournament fights)only, of every warrior, without penalty. 5. If at any time, the Moderators determine that any non-TW team in the arena is aiding and/or abetting any TW alliance or team, the affected points won by the gifted team/alliance will be disallowed and the aiding non-TW team will be asked to desist from play in the arena until after the Turf War concludes. Prizes: The Turf War is normally a "winner take all" contest. However, for TWVII, a prize (RU cert)will be awarded each of the twelve turns to the individual team/manager that fights five fights and has the best w/l record that turn. (Tiebreakers are in this order - kills, recognition points earned.) All prizes and 100% of the Gift Certificates will be awarded to the Captain of the winning alliance at the end of the competition. 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. All entry fees (rollup certs) are awarded to the winning alliance, except for the twelve reserved for the individual winning manager each week.) The following prizes have been secured from RSI: 1. Renaming of the North Fork (DM 47) arena; 2. Renaming of all Dark Arena Monsters (two 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 DM47 arena fight to receive this award). 4. +1 Skill bonus (one) 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 and every individual manager who fights in all 12 rounds AND 54 fights of the Turf War. Bonus potion must be applied to a living warrior from (DM 47) These RSI awards will be listed by the Moderator for claiming from RSI (Lee) within 4 turns of the end of TW VI. The certs will be mailed to the winning alliance by the Moderators within two weeks of the end of the TW. 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 questions, comments, and scoring disputes to rebelnerfherder at yahoo dot com or wfms101 at aol dot com. Please note there have been rule changes from the last Turf War. Please read them carefully! This contest will begin in November 2010 following the Fall Mail In. * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * }%|[-----+O+-----]|%{ * Players old and new! Some of you may know that at one point last year, RSI tried to pull together an arena in which role-playing in the personals and in spotlights would be a significant (and rewarded) feature. Though it didn't work out, the idea remains an appealing one. I would like to propose that we, the players, sponsor such an effort. No rules, no prizes, just players getting into the spirit of role-play. I suggest Telorinthe, arena 83, as a place to try this. Telorinthe is the slow no-tourney arena, and it seems like a good place for this experiment. There is no large body of entrenched players with other interests. Although some background work has been done, there is no great, creaking, edifice of old spotlights to deal with. Very little in the way of vested interests. Perhaps if all goes well, the idea might catch on in other arenas. In keeping with the "no rules" idea, I won't say, "Begins on turn ###!" Just show up when you feel like it and jump in. We'll keep a seat ready for you. Jorja and the Middle Way P.S. And I'll try to have at least a short piece each time. No major adventures, just "the adventure of living."

DUELMASTER'S COLUMN Notes from the arena champ. Greetings North Fork, Well, my return was definitely shortened. Something to do with having learned 119 skills over various dead tourneys I guess. Too bad I didn't get the opportunity to fight more turns. Crip always hates it when guys that are actively fighting get pulled by the commission on sandbagging criteria, even if they aren't sandbaggers. And while extensive real life road trips mean he's not paying attention to arena results these days, he did note that my Deftness is 8 points too low to be well suited to my favourite weapon. Go Figure! Ace Frehley Royal Flush Duelmaster of North Fork SPY REPORT Like the magnificent Sun, rising upon the Dawn and exiling the Night for a Day, I, Novgorodny Vir, return once again! Like a chunk of francium heaved into a wet pond, NEW VENGEANCE blew up the rankings to 11! The boys at LAND OF OZ aren't the happy-go-lucky bunch we all know and love, after suffering a 19 drop last week. Rumor has it an incurable disease has swept the stable of AN EPHRAIM. Note their drop in the rankings from 18th to 29th. Watch out!!! Say what you will about blind luck and dirty fighting, but THE MIDDLE WAY 3 will tell you 156-246-2 is nothing to laugh at... CALM AND SEDATE had cause to celebrate, after THORAZINE got 21 points by beating TALKEETNA. KATIE certainly had a baffled expression on hers face, after losing to TEMPTRESS and losing 16 points in the process! Now I can't insult A TALE OF PAIN, as he has gloriously dueled to the top. Oh great new Duelmaster!!! (Stop me if I lay it on too thick) Word has it one team in TEMPLE OF ABARSIS is using psychics to predict wins. They lead a charmed life! So much to report, so little time! Like the noble eagle soaring amongst the mountaintops, so stand the warriors of PALINDROMES, alone and unchallenged. As a woman of good breeding scorns the "warriors" of SERPENTS HOLD, so did that sorry team shy from PALINDROMES If challenges were horses, REQUIEM could open up a fast food joint! KANA BALLISTIC challenged ACE OF BASE! Who says DEVIATION are just a bunch of wimps! KANA BALLISTIC of DEVIATION kept his wits as he was bested by ACE OF BASE. Like the wind whispering among the pines, do hearest I many disquieting rumors. More than one waitress at The Warty Toad was spilling more drinks than usual last week, as IDITAROD TRAIL's early demise became known. What will ALASKAN PIPELINE do??? Perhaps OTTODROME TW were the only ones left untouched by LIMPER demise. Can anyone ever take his place? Or do I exaggerate? BAD NEWS BEAR of THE BEAR'S PAW sends DONAVAN of ALL-STAR NANA'S goes to the Weary Warrior's Retirement Home. TEMPLE OF ABARSIS has no place for weaklings! Charity is unknown in TEMPLE OF ABARSIS, and rightly so. PAWN OF PROPHECY exacted their revenge against TOKEN ENTRY. Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee. Leave me now, you base fools! As if buffeted by forces of nature beyond my control, I must take my leave of this place. TEMPLE OF ABARSIS, I leave you now. The Duelmaster has agreed to foot my bill at The Warty Toad.

Ya know? -- Kat Kiss of Death -- It wasn't really all that unbelievable, was it? -- Kat Darque -- 'Tis awfully good to see you again, old friend. I'm not too fond that it's across the sands, but no blood spilled is permanent. A hearty congratulations on Salsa! DJI Forever and For Always! -- Kat Kana Ballistic -- Our revenge is complete. I could have wished the timing were a bit different, but our honor remains intact (for now). -- Prowl Velma Xavil -- You were on a bit of a streak that almost discouraged me from challenging. Sorry to ruin the streak and sorry for the challenge, but so is life in the arena. -- Gizmo Rusty -- That went as I had expected and hoped, though I may have to put you on my avoid list in the near future. -- Astrotrain Panther -- Unlike my brother's bout, ours did not go as planned. Perhaps I underestimated your resolve in battle. It is a mistake that will not be repeated. -- Blitzwing Otis the Drunk -- From the Dark Arena report, you were busy last cycle. I guess dying in the first bout of the night motivated you for the remainder of the evening. -- Salsa Elemental, comfortably retired Crip -- Congrats or condolences on Ace's graduation. I guess its a matter of one's perspective on manual graduations. -- Master Darque TW Participants -- Oz and I hope you are enjoying your Turf War experience. There have been some minor hiccups here and there, but nothing major thus far and things are running smoothly. Do not forget about tourney participation points for the upcoming Spring Mailer (due April 2). Points will be assessed as soon as they appear in the DM 47 newsletter. -- Master Darque Ace Frehley -- Got to love those sandbaggers! I was in the challenger adepts, and now you're the Duelmaster!? Sheesh! I guess they don't respect those TV Challenges like they used to. -- Juneau Dawning Big Mac -- I think I'm going to switch to the Whopper! -- Talkeetna Barney Bear -- Well, that was fun! Good to know I can step up my game when I need to. -- Eureka Pride Wicked -- Maybe that little tweak in strategy allowed me to get the jump. We'll see if I can keep that up. Thanks for the skills! -- Iditarod Trail Bengal -- Did you even take a real swing at me? Let's have a rematch in a few. -- Yukon Quest Grimm -- Thanks a lot! You were right, just keep plugging away and try to get just a little bit better every time! Not sure about the summer F2F just yet. But hopefully I can work it out. -- Storm Lord Oz -- Being tourney points leader is nice! Now team LOL just has to match that showing in the regular arena. -- Stormy Tenth Inning -- That's the time for the excitement. -- Dresden Lyre -- I wouldn't call that musical, but you did make me dance. -- Carlos Stretch -- That could be a good name for me. -- Kowalski Artichoke -- Not carrying a spear? -- Luccio Salad Slayer -- And you're mean to buffets as well? -- Morgan Salsa Elemental -- Congrats Lord Protector! -- Bill the Bard and Team Blackstaff North Fork -- With Ace Frehley's early departure, we at the Royal Flush poker table wish to declare Jack Knife as our latest Champion. -- Crip, mgr of Royal Flush Michael Eldritch -- I know, I've got an empty slot on the team.
