Salutations apes, this is Den. Once again I will be speaking for Ookla, as is customary for Moks, he still does not speak the common language. But, one thing he does know how to do is hold the throne here in Niytyole Hold. I did not have to interpret the belly-laughs that rolled from him after killing Dwes Eg Salad last turn. Have you ever seen a Mok laugh? It is quite a sight. I cannot imagine how angry Shewish Diner is after losing their top warrior. Man, that really sucks, but it pretty much sucks to be them anyway, so no great loss. Ookla did want to say, "Cahp Kuhlnd eq moht ivnmer befd" which is loosely interpreted to mean Golden Cap is going to have a lousy day tomorrow. More next week. Den SPY REPORT I can't believe the violence in NIYTYOLE HOLD! I still haven't told Mom I'm writing Spyreports. She'd have a cow! Well, here we go... WHITE WOLVES had like a really albendranius week! Those hunks got a 3-2-0 and wound up as 10th team! Cut this out and put it in your scrapbooks, FAST FOOD! 'Cause they got 3-1-0 and moved up to 6th! MVP award for HUMBUG? LAND OF OZ's proud of him after beating HIPPSTER and getting 26 points. Talk about yer major upsets! WHIPPED CREAM's match with DATABASE EDITOR cost her a loss of 15 points! Oh, wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most popular guy in all NIYTYOLE HOLD. He got the most challenges. (But what about proposals?) Like, RUNNY LEGS must be pretty gutsy! She Bloodfeuded the Duelmaster from BIG LAKE GROOVE. Does this gal have a death wish or what! This Duelmaster is like something else! OOKLA THE MOK stopped RUNNY LEGS dead in hers tracks! Who was the wiseguy that said NIYTYOLE HOLD's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Dripping Blade? Don't look at me! I gotta admit I haven't been in "deep con caves" with any spies. Really, I just wing this stuff. A'MERKIN INJUNS was NIYTYOLE HOLD's most avoided team. Is there some award for that? Hhmph! What kind of warriors are WHITE WOLVES? A'MERKIN INJUNS, an easy team to beat if I ever saw one, can't get them to accept an invitation! Speaking of challenging 29 points above did you hear about STYLE CHANGER of BIG LAKE GROOVE vs. SHEWISH DINER's HOBO CASSEROLE? (And how was that intro!) What did STYLE CHANGER expect, anyway! Of course HOBO CASSEROLE won. Next time stick to people you have a chance against, dummy! Some fights are really unfair. How do you think HYPER AGGRESSIVE feels about being challenged by STEVE MIKE, 18 points above him? A lotta people lost a lotta money in a lotta bets, when STEVE MIKE challenged HYPER AGGRESSIVE, 18 points below and lost! Send 'im to the Dark Arena! Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give it a break? What a bummer! HIPPSTER got wasted by HUMBUG! But with a 8-9-0, I guess STAR PRAIRIE aren't too bummed. I was SO depressed when I heard SCAURUS got killed. He was just a kid, and didn't get a fair chance in NIYTYOLE HOLD, or anything! Like was that some Bloodfeud, or what? (BROCK TULGREN vs. VARS FOLLEY, that is.) Hey you guys, don't you think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for you.) Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand wash. I know how much you like reading this stuff, but I really should stop. Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out!

The Mail-in Bloodgames that were set to run at Face-to-Face 58 in January did not process because we had trouble with the warrior data for that arena. Unfortunately, the warrior data was irretrievably lost. We have credited everyone for those teams. So here's what we're going to do: We will hold a replacement Mail-in Bloodgames (DM 97) on June 17. To participate, submit your team (10 warriors, design-your-own, one of each style). When we receive your team "rollup", we will send you back warrior overviews. Your strategies for the Replacement Mail-in Bloodgames (DM 97) are due June 17. We will process all ten rounds, one after another, and mail all results later that week. The costs and Bloodgames rules will remain the same. In addition to this, we will also hold another Bloodgames (DM 95), but this one will process as a slow arena. Design your teams in the same way: 10 warriors, design- your-own, one warrior of each fighting style. Managers may submit turn input each round for their warriors, similar to the Face-to-Face style Bloodgames (no challenges, only Bloodfeuds). Your strategies for the first round of the Arena Bloodgames (DM 95) are due on June 24. This arena will run ten rounds, once every four weeks. The Summer Face-to-Face is coming up and we will hold the regularly scheduled Face-to- Face style and Mail-in style Bloodgames there, as well. We hope everyone will enjoy one or more of these Bloodgames arenas! -- RSI BLOODGAMES at the SUMMER FACE-TO-FACE Back by popular demand, we will be having Bloodgames at the Summer FTF! For those of you who always wanted the chance to manage the last warrior standing alive upon the arena sands, your day has come. At the end of the ten turns, even though several warriors, bruised and scarred, MAY yet live, only one will be crowned Champion of the Bloodgames. And in this game mere survival counts for little. A great general once said, "The object of battle is not to die for your cause, but to make your enemy die for his." This general would have greatly enjoyed the Duelmasters Bloodgames. There will be two different arenas: FTF-Style (DM 98): for Face-to-Face attendees, with turn-by-turn strategies Mail-in-Style (DM 99): for all managers, with one strategy for all ten rounds Gameplay proceeds according to standard DM rules, except for a few notable exceptions: BLOODGAMES ROLLUP -- Your Bloodgames team is ten warriors, one of each fighting style, each warrior designed from scratch! (All are 84 points, 3-21, as usual.) DEATH -- As the name implies, the Bloodgames will leave the arena sands somewhat darker before they're over. It's a dangerous sport intended only for the tough and spirited. The Arenamaster will be less likely to intercede on behalf of a dying warrior. Even at a 1 kill desire, kill attempts will occur. REPLACEMENTS AND ROLLUPS -- There will be no replacement characters. CHALLENGES AND STRATEGIES -- In the FTF-style bloodgames, there are no regular challenges, only bloodfeuds. For the Mail-in arena, warriors may not change their strategy from round to round (to make it fair for those who could not attend the FTF). There will be no DA challenges in either arena. TURN PROCESSING AND DUE DATES -- If you are not attending the FTF, we must have your rollups and strategies by the Wednesday before the FTF, else they are due by 9pm on Friday, at the hotel. The Bloodgames will process at the FTF with the regular tournament. MISSED TURNS -- All warriors fight each round. Only the dead may rest. ERRORS -- If we make an input error, that warrior will be awarded a win and kill. Errors must be reported before the next turn processes. NEWSLETTER -- Warriors are ranked according to their number of kills. Champions of Bloodgames may write a column for the newsletter at the end of the games. FEES -- A Bloodgames rollup costs a $10 set-up fee. Managers may roll up more than one team but may run only one team in each arena. The fee for all ten rounds is $49. AWARDS -- The Bloodgames last ten rounds. Only warriors who survive to the end of Turn 10 will be eligible for an award. However, a consolation award of a Bloodgames T-shirt will be awarded to the dead warrior with the most kills. The living warrior with the greatest number of kills will be the Bloodgames Champion. Bloodgames Victor titles, 2nd and 3rd place, and Bloodgames Runner-up titles, 4th through 6th place, will be awarded to those living warriors with the greatest number of kills at the end of Turn 10, with one other important consideration: Each of these six warriors must be of a different fighting style. Win/loss records and, if necessary, recognition points will only be used to determine awards if there is a tie. A Bloodgames T-shirts will be awarded to the manager of the team with the most kills. The Bloodgames Champion fights for free in Advanced Duelmasters, and all Champions and Victors earn Tournament Victor status, which allows them to challenge once per turn with increased priority. These awards last for six months. The manager of the Bloodgames Champion, Victors, and Runners-up will receive Bloodgames T-shirts. AFTERMATH -- Warriors from the Bloodgames may not transfer to any other arena. Once the games are over, the arena and teams will be disbanded. The fighters have won their freedom and will never more be seen in the gladiatorial games. A special bonus will, however, be awarded to the 1st through 3rd place warriors. Lady Sheila Greywand, of the Isle of the Eye, has consented to allow the top three gladiators in each Bloodgames admission to the Advanced Duelmasters games. Any special training required to qualify those three warriors for Advanced Duelmasters combat will be conducted before transfer into ADM. Astute managers will note that this means that three warriors that are designed from scratch will survive the Bloodgames, win one of the top three places, and go on to immortal glory! One of those warriors could be yours! The challenge is yours to take. The final plans are yours to make. When the dust settles, remember: To the victor goes the spoils!
