TEAM SPOTLIGHT
"Come to North Fork," they said. "Rest yer old bones in the sun."
Bah! Guess the joke be on me!
Well, here we are just the same. Stuck in yer cold, wet, and miserable burg, and
ye lot don't even got a mead hall worth the price of a jharl. Guessin' I'll have to
break out the still and get the liquid lightnin' flowing, if only to keep me wrinklies
from icin' up and fallin' clean off!
Question for ye all: What be with yer basher-brained scribes in this spit-hole?
A shewish butcher couldnt've botched up me team name any better.
I won't be wastin' yer time er mine with the introductions. Me ragtags'd prefer
to do the introducin' on the sands anyhow. But before I get outta here, lemme find a
nip o' the good stuff....
Ah. Here we go.
A toast to the warriors o' North Fork:
May lady luck find ye on sands and smile brightly on ye whilst me ragtags stuff
yer guts full o' steel.
And fer the rest:
Here's to the folks that seen us at our best, and seen us at our worst, but ain't
able to tell the diff'rence.
-- Frith, manager o' the Abhorrents (or A Boor Rents, for ye rattle brained scribes)
***---------*---------*---------*---------**---------*---------*---------*---------***
Marie is a bit apprehensive as she walks out onto the sands. This is her first
fight. She has prepared for it, studied her opponent, but it's real now. Her opponent
will show no leniency. Her armor, meant to safeguard her, now seems confining and
restricting, not protecting but wrapping and suffocating her. Rooting her to this spot
so that her foe can finish her at his leisure. "Relax. Calm!" she commands herself as
she begins her pre-fight routine. Stretching one hamstring. Now the other. "If you are
distressed by anything external, the pain is not due to the thing itself, but your
estimate of it, and this you have the power to revoke at any moment." These are words
of wisdom from the old masters, passed to her through repetition by her mentor and
manager. She recites them as she continues to stretch her arms in an attempt to loosen
up.
As she does this, she watches her opponent from the corner of her eyes, watches
as he takes a few tests swings with his gleaming scimitar. "Could this be real, is
that a hesitation?" The slight slowness might just be her mind playing tricks. It's
easy to let your imagination run wild when you're staring at a possible death in the
arena. But it's worth noting, and that's all she can do for now. "One minute at a
time, cher," she tells herself.
The arena master gives the signal to start and the combatants move around the
arena, looking for an opening. Each feinting and juking, trying to find a weakness in
the other's defense. Then her rival swings his sword. She dodges easily, sidestepping
the blow, even managing to look graceful in the process. A smile spreads on her face.
Her opponent's timing looks slowed, not his usual form. His attacks look a hair off,
but a hair is enough on the sands.
Her adversary looks confused. "Why is she smiling. Nobody grins like that, at
least not one that doesn't have the fight won yet?" After a few minutes of dodging and
riposting his slowed blows, after she has gotten the timing down, she waits for her
moment. Her opponent swings his scimitar, a sweeping blow aimed at her sword arm. She
dodges left, lashing out with a vicious thrust. A fighter knows when she has hit the
sweet spot, and Marie knows. Her challenger drops his weapon and crumples to the
ground. The arena master looks disgusted as he signals the end of combat.
Her manager greets her as she exits the stadium. Detox was what he was once
called, though, to be fair, not many called him that. He wasn't well known. Those that
did know him, mostly knew him for his parties and drinking, not for his prowess in the
arena. But that was a lifetime ago, and she didn't know him then. Now, though, he had
walked the path of arcane knowledge, he'd put away his youthful indiscretions. His
affinity for nature, and wildlife in particular, has become his trademark, so much so
that passersby call him the Master of the Squirrels. He's fine with that. It makes him
seem a bit odd, eccentric even. His friends just call him Solomon.
The manager presses a doll into her hand, "I told you this would work, you've put
in the time and effort." She looks at the figurine, a miniature of the now-defeated
gladiator, a needle sticking from his right shoulder. "You are a voodoo priestess.
Many don't believe in such things. But you do, and that is what matters."
Marie visits her foe in the infirmary. "Mais cher, I ain't mad that you're
recovering. But if you didn't, we would have chuckled, all things considered. If I
were you, I'd follow my manager around for a bit. He may have you fighting by the
light of them torches with that showing."

Come one, come all! Enter the 11 Turf War team battles. Be the North Fork champs!
TURF WAR XI EXTRAVAGANZA (TWIXIE) RULES (Rev 6-6-18)
(Start T398, OCT 2018)
Bring acclaim and glory to the North Fork (DM47) arena.
Anyone may participate; known alliances, new alliances, thrown-together alliances, or
temporary alliances created solely to compete in the Turf War! To participate, each
alliance must:
1. Announce as Captain of an alliance in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter. (List
teams and managers in the three-team alliance. (Also designate alliance name.)
2. Announce in the newsletter which Captain/alliance your team is joining.
3. Announcements made on the D2 Forums or elsewhere will not be accepted.
Captains are responsible for:
1. Announcing, in the North Fork newsletter, those who are a part of their alliance.
Both Manager announcement and Captain announcement/confirmation are required.
2. Distribution of certs should your 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 an intent to compete with their manager name, team name, and alliance
they will join in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter
3. Announcement made on the D2 Forums or Chatzy will not be accepted.
4. Run the team in any of three turn prior to the first TW round, so the warriors
appear in the NL prior to the TW start.
No alliance scores will be tabulated until two RSI Gift Certificates are received, and
participant indication and captain confirmation are posted in the North Fork
newsletter. NO EXCEPTIONS.
All entry certs should be sent to Oz or The Consortium via RSI.
Only one (1) team per player/manager may compete in the Turf Wars, and only one team
per player/manager may compete in North Fork DM47 during the Turf War. No arena
multiple teams or aliases will be allowed. Violations will result in immediate manager
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). NOTE: Since alliances require three teams, this would mean the
remaining alliance/alliance members cannot score in the TW.
Any Turf War team must show/be posted/listed in the DM47 Newsletter just prior to
their actual scoring/participation. (E.g. New teams, transfers, current teams must
show up in the newsletter prior to the beginning of participation, allowing opponent
knowledge and challenging/avoiding.) Manager/teams may not participate/score in the
Turf War the same turn they are first posted in the newsletter. (So get your team in
the newsletter early.)Clarifying: All teams MUST show up in the NL just prior to the
first TW turn to be allowed to score in the first TW round. Teams do not have to run
that turn prior to TW-T1, but will have had to run shortly before to allow their
warriors to be visible in the newsletter just prior to TW-T1.
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, confirmation, and Gift Certificate
received.
No declarations or confirmations will be accepted after Turn 3 of the Turf War. 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.)
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.)
SCORING will be as follows:
* Only top two base score teams score/count per round per alliance.
* Top one base score team per alliance scores twice (double).
* Lowest team base score per alliance gets a "pass" and does not score.
* Team is disqualified for round scoring if fighting less than 5 fights. (Exception:
The turn after a Mailer or FTF where a death occurred to a TW team/manager, the
manager may fight only four and be scored. If multiple deaths, then multiple "non
fight" exemptions occur for that turn after the tournament.)
* If a team is disqualified from scoring, the remaining top one base score team scores
double and the lowest team gets a "pass" and does not score.
* If two disqualified teams occur, the third team cannot score double and only scores
single.
BASE SCORING = W = +2 L = -1 K = +1 Death = 0
Those scores are the same for match ups, up or down challenges, NPC matches, or Dark
Arena fights. With these exceptions:
--- Each warrior is limited to two DA matches during the TW. A 3rd and subsequent DA
fight during the TW shall be scored at -5 points (win or lose.)
--- Alliance Match Up scored = 0 for each warrior. Kill point disallowed.
--- Intra Alliance Challenge scored = -1 for each warrior; no kill points may score.
(It is not the spirit of competition to challenge fellow members of the same
alliance. Hence, challenges as such will be scored as losses for both warriors
with no kill points awarded.)
First 6 rounds scores 1x.
End of round 6, top alliance adds 6 points. 2nd adds 4, 3rd adds 2, 4th adds 1.
Rounds 7 thru 9 scores 2x.
Final round 10 scores 3x.
Tournament Considerations:
1. Tournament participation is allowed and ENCOURAGED as a great form of recognition
for North Fork.
2. It is an opportunity to gain skills and preferred challenging within the Turf War.
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 X, you must end the Turf War with Alliance X. If
you begin the Turf War with Team X, you must end the Turf War with Team X.
3. There will be a maximum of three (3) teams/managers allowed per alliance for the
Turf War VII. The minimum is three (3).
4. The Dark Arena may be used without penalty.(Limit twice per warrior.)
5. If at any time, the Moderators determine that any non-TW team in the arena is
aiding and/or abettting 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 meant to be a near "winner takes all" contest. It is the
responsibility of the Captain of the winning alliance to distribute Gift Certificates.
Moderators will submit a list of each manager winner to RSI at the completion of the
contest for the non-Certificate and RSI awarded prizes, to then be claimed by the
manager from RSI Customer Service within 6 months.
* Winning alliance gets 90% of the pooled certs.
* Individual Team with most wins in 10 rounds gets 10% of the pooled certs.
* RSI awards: (all must be applied to DM47 warriors, cannot create out-of-bounds
warrior, and one max prize applied to any warrior b all within 6 months)(one max
prize means that if you win two prizes they cannot be applied to the same warrior.)
Winning alliance captain may choose two (each manager/team receives same prize as
chosen by captain):
: Limited Damage Bump (bump one level damage) (warrior must have fought in the TW)
: Stat replace (remove 2 SZ, replace 2 to any other stat) (warrior must have fought in
the TW)
: Choice Replacement (Receive 5 replacements, choose 1, delete 4)
: Replacement stat swap (Replace/flip any 2 stats on one replacement)
2nd place alliance captain may choose one (each manager/team receives same prize as
chosen by captain)
: Favorite weapon (warrior must have fought in the TW)
: Favorite rhythm (warrior must have participated in TW)
: Free stat raise
Participation Award to all teams/managers who fight 46 min fights (of 50) = 2 skills
(to one warrior)
These RSI awards will be listed by the Moderators within two weeks of round ten for
individual claiming from RSI within 4 turns of the end of TWX. 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, Master Darque, and Assur. (The
TWX Triumvirate) 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 or Bash Bros Park via diplo in DM 47.
Managers with internet access may send a private message to [The Consortium] or
[Darque] or [Assur] on the Duel2 Forums. Lastly, you may also email questions,
comments, and scoring disputes to rebelnerfherder@yahoo.com or wfms101@aol.com or or
mikey.alexander@hisstrengthandwork.com
Addendum:
Examples of scoring for clarification.
Code = win-loss-kill-death (W = +2 L = -1 K = +1 Death = 0)
Example #1:
Team A goes 2-3-0-0 (points = +4-3+0-0 = +1)
Team B goes 3-2-1-0 (points = +6-2+1-0 = +5)
Team C goes 2-3-2-0 (points = +4-3+2-0 = +3)
Team B top score, scores twice 2x+5 (+10)
Team A lowest score, does not score and gets a pass.
Team C, then, scores normal at (+3)
Alliance Score = 10 + 3 = +13
Example #2:
Team A goes 4-0-1-0 (points = +8-0+1-0 = +9)
Team B goes 3-2-0-0 (points = +6-2+0-0 = +4)
Team C goes 2-3-0-0 (points = +4-3+0-0 = +1)
Team A is disqualified from scoring having not fought five fights.
If a team is disqualified, then the top remaining team scores double while the lowest
remaining score gets a "pass".
Team B top remaining score, scores twice = 2 x +4 (+8)
Team C lowest score, does not score and gets a pass.
Alliance Score = 8
Example #3
Team A goes 4-1-1-0 (points +8-1+1+0 = +8)
However, Team A fought the DA for the 3rd time = -5.
Team A adjusted to (+8-1=1=0-5 = +3)
Team B goes 1-4+0-0 (points +2-4+0-0 = -2)
Team C goes 1-4+1-0 (points +2-4+1-0 = -1)
Team A top score, scores twice 2x+3 (+6)
Team B lowest score, does not score and gets a pass.
Team C, then, scores normal at (-1)
Alliance score = +6-1 = +5
Example #4
Team A goes 1-4-0-0 (points = +2-4+0-0 = -2)
Team B goes 1-4-0-0 (points = +2-4+0-0 = -2)
Team C goes 0-5-0-0 (points = +0-5+0-0 = -5)
Team A or B is top score and scores twice 2x-2 = -4
Team C lowest score, does not score and gets a pass.
Team B, then, scores normal at (-2)
Alliance score = -4-2 = -6
Example #5
Team A goes 3-2-0 with a winning match-up with Team B alliance mate.
Team B goes 2-3-1-0 with a winning and killing challenge to Team C alliance mate.
Team B also lost the alliance match-up with Team A.
Team C goes 1-4-0-1 having been killed in a challenge from alliance mate Team B
Team A points normally = +6-2+0-0 = +4, but one win was an alliance match-up which
scores as 0, hence score = +4-2+0-0 = +2
Team B points normally = +4-3+1-0 = +2, but one loss was an alliance match up which
counts as 0, and one winning kill was an intra alliance challenge which the win counts
as -1 and the kill is negated. Hence
Team B score = +1-2+0-0 = -1
Team C points normally = +2-4+0-0 = -2; with one loss and kill coming from an intra
alliance challenge, but the IAC (intra alliance challenge) scores (-1)the same as a
loss and there are no points scored for being killed, the +2-4+0-0 = (-2) stands.
Team A top score, scores twice 2x+2 (+4)
Team C lowest score, does not score and gets a pass.
Team B, then, scores normal at (-1)
Alliance score = +4-1 = +3
Remember: (W = +2 L = -1 K = +1 Death = 0)
It only gets complicated with intra alliance match-ups (IAMs) and intra alliance
challenges. (IACs)
DUELMASTER'S COLUMN
Notes from the arena champ.
Yup, little ole me, Munchkin, again. Duelmaster. And master of house landings,
ruby slippers, little dogs, scarecrows, oil cans, and North Fork.
I don't have a lot to offer. After all, this is my THIRD DM Column. Maybe Bully
or Fruit Cup, the two losers, (of three fights) have something to say? Like -- great
job, Munchkin; or yu da man, Munchkin; or wow, you're good, Munchkin. Perhaps?
I will say I am excited about the upcoming TWXI. (They're calling it "Twixie";
how cute!) I am not sure I will be around for it, but I hope. Anyway, don't miss it.
It is bad! (Like me!)
-- Munchkin DMIII
SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for NORTH FORK. Like, BIG LAKE GROOVE had to
be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by BAD BEATS! Way to go BAD
BEATS! I couldn't believe it. Did WEIRD ALCHEMY really go up by 11? If only those
guys didn't have so may missing teeth... Gross! I don't wanna hurt anybody's
feelings or anything, but FAST FOOD really goofed with their 1-3-0. What was the
name of that team who got 4-1-0 this turn for a total 7-3-0 you ask? (Sure) MEMPHIS
MAFIA's their name, and fighting's their game! MVP award for HEADLESS NICK? DEATHLY
HALLOWS' proud of him after beating SLUDGE and getting 25 points. Talk about yer big
time losers! QUEEN LATIFAH got smashed by BLACK CHAOS, and lost 10 points! Like
FAST FOOD's FRUIT CUP is sweating since he got challenged by Duelmaster MUNCHKIN!
Don't you think the Duelmaster is being unfair? I think MUNCHKIN should let FRUIT
CUP be Duelmaster for a while, without fighting about it. Who was the wiseguy that
said NORTH FORK's Duelmaster was paying for drinks at The Welcome Wench? 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. The warriors of BIG LAKE GROOVE must be getting lonely. They were
the most avoided team. Do you guys know something that I don't? Hhmph! What kind
of warriors are DOWNWARD SPIRAL? BIG LAKE GROOVE, an easy team to beat if I ever saw
one, can't get them to accept an invitation! Like, is PARADIGM popular, or what? It
was challenged the most in all of NORTH FORK! It's got a 6-9-0, is that good? See
if I ever talk to LEAF again! THE NORTH FORKIAN was so low when He challenged he.
Hhmph! LEAF beat THE NORTH FORKIAN. No surprise about that. Really I'm not
surprised LEAF would do such a scummy thing, either. People were asking me did MARY
SLACKER REALLY challenge BRAINS? (all right, maybe they didn't, but it sounded
good!) It wasn't a spectacular fight, or anything, but BRAINS wants me to write about
it since he subdued MARY SLACKER. Satisfied? FEATHER must not be a good enough
fighter to get in fair fights. She challenged TIM. 8 is a big difference. (Well,
that's what they tell me.) I thought FEATHER showed great skill and promise when she
dealt death to TIM. 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! BASH BROS PARK heartlessly sent his to BULLY certain fate in
the Dark Arena. Is a 15-14-0 bad or something? Hey! Quit laughing! Just because
DUMBLEGORE had 7-7-1 was no reason for DEATHLY HALLOWS to send him to the Dark Arena!
Stop it! I hear DEATHLY HALLOWS sent RON WE SLAY to the Dark Arena. What, is that
like not well-lit, or what? Like, who is this guy??? BOJ gets sent to the Dark
Arena, battles NOT SO GENTLEBEN, and returns to tell of it!!! I bet SPROUT OF MY
MIND manager is surprised! I'm always kinda bummed when a decent warrior gets
killed. SLUDGE, of DARQUE FORCES had a 9-5-1 when he got bumped off by HEADLESS
NICK. That was so totally rude when LEAF wasted THE NORTH FORKIAN. I think all you
warriors in NORTH FORK should gang up on DOWNWARD SPIRAL! Hey you guys, don't you
think your families would like to hear from you? Write! (Or have someone write for
you.)
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. NORTH FORK is like such a dump, and you guys
smell too much! Remember you guys, ease up sometimes! Chill out! Later, Debby
Tonte

Uh, Bully, congrats on leaving for the Big Time. I wonder, though, if
you are on the wrong team? Shouldn't you be a Big Lake Something? You
know, Scarlet affiliated? Or even on that baseball team on Noblish
Isle where you are bullying Dealer and his Card Sharks? Something is
amiss, but good luck anyway.
