SPY REPORT
Ready for some action-packed adventure, some thrills, chills and spills? Well
fergit it, cause this is the Spyreport for KYR'TERR. Like, HAZAARDS OF CLONING had
to be so embarrassed when they got kicked off #1 spot by 100% CANADIAN! Way to go
100% CANADIAN! I couldn't believe it. Did THE CODA really go up by 11? If only
those guys didn't have so may missing teeth... Gross! See if I even talk to any of
those losers in SCOTCH again! Didja see where they got 0-1-0? Somebody musta won a
lotta fights! Cut this out and put it in your scrapbooks, SHERWOOD FOREST! 'Cause
they got 3-0-1 and moved up to 2nd! MVP award for BILLY TALENT? 100% CANADIAN's
proud of it after beating EXTRA TALL GLASS and getting 27 points. Talk about yer big
time losers! EXTRA TALL GLASS got smashed by BILLY TALENT, and lost 21 points! Oh,
wow, like the Duelmaster must be the most popular gal in all KYR'TERR. She got the
most challenges. (But what about proposals?) Like DARK ARENA's STONE GOLEM is
sweating since he got Dark Arena Challenged by Duelmaster AMY FARRAH FOWLER! This
Duelmaster is like something else! AMY FARRAH FOWLER stopped STONE GOLEM dead in his
tracks! 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. NERD HERD II
was KYR'TERR's most avoided team. Is there some award for that? I don't know what
HAZAARDS OF CLONING's been doing. They certainly haven't been accepting many fights
from NERD HERD II, that's fer sher.
Man, all these warriors dying and killing each other! Don't you guys ever give
it a break? Pinch me, I must be dreaming!!! AMY FARRAH FOWLER returns from the Dark
Arena, maybe a "little upset" at hers NERD HERD II teammates... What if they had a
fight and nobody showed up? I'd be out of a job, that's what!!!
Remember, blood on a purple robe may stain. Soak it in cold water, and hand
wash. I'm getting tired of writing this stuff, so I'm calling it quits. Its been
really albendranius! Later, guys-- Debby Tonte

*official TURF WAR 14 (TW14) RULES* (revision 9-6-24-WS)
Starting Turn 480 (Feb 10, appx date), just after the FTF, 10 turns
Bring acclaim and glory to the North Fork (DM47) arena.
Anyone may participate: known alliances, new alliances, or temporary alliances created
solely to compete in the Turf War! To participate, each alliance must:
1. Indicate in the newsletter or on the RSI site the three team alliance.
(3 Team names, 3 manager names, and an alliance title)
2. Pay RSI or deduct from account ($15) per manager as entry fee indicating for TW14.
(a change from past TWs). RSI will hold as "certs" in a separate account for TW14
and distribute as Team RUs to winners of TW14.
DO NOT send, or have sent, certs to the Moderators.
Must be completed prior to Dec 31, 2024.
3. Teams and alliances will not start scoring until the turn after they appear in the
newsletter and are announced. This means that to start scoring on turn 1, the teams
must be listed in the newsletter on Turn 479.
Other rules and discussion.
1. Only one (1) team per manager/player may be active in the arena.
2. If at any time, the Moderators determine that any non-TW team, whether a 2nd team
or a non-TW manager's 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/demanded to desist from play in the arena
until after the Turf War concludes.
3. As usual, any Turf War team must be shown/be posted in the DM47 Newsletter just
prior to the actual scoring/participation start on T480 (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). Violations
could 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 teams' warriors.
4. 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.)
5. Definitions:
Team = individual Manager's 5-Team Stable
Alliance = three Teams united
6. 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.)
7. 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.
8. Downchallenges: A downchallenge is defined as a warrior challenging a warrior with
lesser recognition points.
No challenge or bloodfeud by The Duelmaster shall be deemed a downchallenge.
No challenge of the Duelmaster shall be deemed a downchallenge.
Bloodfeuds against warriors with lesser recognition are deemed downchallenges.
9. Tournament participation is allowed and encouraged as a great form of acclaim and
recognition for North Fork and is an opportunity for warriors to gain skills and
preferred challenging within the Turf War.
10. 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.
11. The Dark Arena may be used at any time without penalty. However, only one win
against a D.A. Monster per each stable warrior shall count as a win. Additional
wins will count as a loss for that warrior.
12. It is highly recommended that managers direct RSI to place your team ON
MAINTENANCE for the TW14 duration so that your team will fight (and earn points)
even if your submitted new strategies are delayed or don't make it.
_____________________________________________________________________
SCORING will be as follows for Fights:
Team Points
a. Wins earned:
0 = -1 points
1 = +1 point
2 = +2 points
3 = +4 points
4 = +6 points
5 = =8 points
b. Down Challenge = (-10) points to the challenger and opponent is credited with a
win for point scoring. The DM is exempt from DC rule/penalty.
c. Four teams will score. The lowest scoring team per round will count duplicate as
the 4th team.
d. Team with most wins per round earns 3 additional points; if ties, no points
awarded; no tiebreaker on wins.
Alliance Points
a. If the three-team alliance fights all 15 fights = 5 Points
Team points (from 3 teams plus the duplicate) + alliance points = Total Alliance
Points(TAP) for the round.
Round Modifier:
a. Round Modifiers (Multiplier times TAP(Total Alliance Points
Rounds 1-4 = 1.0; rounds 5-8 = 2.0; rounds 9 and 10 = 3.0.
The Alliance with the most points after turn 10 is THE WINNER!
________________________________________________________________________
PRIZES:
The Turf War is meant to be a near "winner takes all" contest. Moderators will submit
a list of each prize won (by each Manager) at the completion of the contest. RSI
awarded prizes must then be claimed by the manager from RSI Customer Service within 4
months. The team rollups won will be distributed by RSI to the winners shortly after
receipt of the prize list from the Moderators.
Entry Fee Awards:
*** Winning alliance gets 80% of the pooled team rollups.
*** 2nd place alliance gets 10% of the pooled team rollups.
*** Individual Team with most wins in 10 rounds gets 10% of the pooled team rollups
RSI awards may only be applied to DM47 warriors who fought in TW14. These prizes
cannot create an out-of-bounds warrior, and only one prize may be applied to any
warrior, meaning that if you win two prizes they cannot be applied to the same
warrior. All prizes must be used within 4 months.
Winning alliance: Each manager/team receives:
** One Limited Damage Bump (bump one level damage)
** One Stat replace (remove 2 SZ, replace 2 to any single other stat)
** One Favorite weapon knowledge
** One +1 base skill potion.
2nd place: Each manager/team receives:
** One Favorite weapon knowledge
** One free stat raise (not SZ)
Participation Award:
*** to all teams/managers who fight 45 to 47 fights (of 50) = 1 base skill potion
*** if 48+ fights (of 50) = 2 base skill potions (each to a different warrior)
______________________________________________________________________
Moderators:
The Moderators for this event will be Oz, Master Darque, and Assur, the TW
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 [Master Darque] or
[Assur] on the Duel2 Forums. Lastly, you may also email questions, comments, and
