SPY REPORT
It is I, Novgorodny Vir, Spymaster of Spymasters. Look on my work, ye mighty,
and despair! Nothing is certain in BLACKSTONE, with changing loyalties, changing
Duelmasters. Write this down: new top team--AREAS IN FEAR. Perhaps it is AREAS IN
FEAR members' intannibility that enabled them to move from 17th to 3rd last week...
(Less time in the sun...) Like a chunk of francium heaved into a wet pond, FEAR
FACTORY 15 blew up the rankings to 14! Managers were muttering after JONES showed
BLACKSTONE what they could do: 1-0-0 to move up by 15. Perhaps it is ISIS members'
intannibility that enabled them to move from 35th to 17th last week... (Less time in
the sun...) Like a chunk of francium heaved into a wet pond, DAILY DEEDS blew up the
rankings to 20! Managers were muttering after 08JL25A showed BLACKSTONE what they
could do: 1-0-0 to move up by 36. Perhaps it is 115TH DREAM members' intannibility
that enabled them to move from 56th to 22nd last week... (Less time in the sun...)
Like a chunk of francium heaved into a wet pond, GONE OFF THAT TOO blew up the
rankings to 30! Rumor has it an incurable disease has swept the stable of HAPPY
SPRING XXIII. Note their drop in the rankings from 26th to 40th. Watch out!!!
Managers were muttering after DUEL HACKS showed BLACKSTONE what they could do: 1-1-0
to move up by 27. Perhaps it is TEMPE'13 3 members' intannibility that enabled them
to move from 70th to 45th last week... (Less time in the sun...) Like a chunk of
francium heaved into a wet pond, OPEN SHOP blew up the rankings to 20! Managers were
muttering after THINGS I HATE 2 showed BLACKSTONE what they could do: 1-0-0 to move
up by 12. Perhaps it is ROOKIE HALEN 35 members' intannibility that enabled them to
move from 63rd to 51st last week... (Less time in the sun...) THINGS I HATE 2 had
cause to celebrate, after EARLY MORNINGS got 18 points by beating RED'S RYE. A
certain someone should cut down on the drinking and practice more, after losing 13
points to ALPHA KLAUS. (Discrete enough, ROMPER FLOAT?) A certain someone saw
JASMINE SAGE at The Swinging Aardvark with the shakes, and now he fails to show up to
defend his throne. What a pathetic slob! Now I can't insult COMMANDER PANTS, 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 BLACKSTONE is using psychics to predict wins.
They lead a charmed life!
My mother wished me to avoid conflict, and seek the gentle trade of Spyreporter.
But warriors aren't supposed to avoid fights! Like a horde of jackals fleeing from
the lion, so did the "warriors" in BLACKSTONE avoid ERRTWO. Like a pup with its tail
between its legs, 08JL25A scurried away from ERRTWO. Oh, the shame!
Is there life after death? Pragmatics (and warriors) know there is death after
life! Ask not for whom the sword slashes; it slashes for thee.
All good things must come to an end. Keep those sands bloody and the buzzards
fat! Can anything compare to the pleasure of writing Spyreports for BLACKSTONE? On
that giddy note I take my leave-- Novgorodny Vir

* * * * * MEMO * * * * *
From: The Office of Accurate Census Reporting, Gladiatorial Commission
To: All Managers
In the interest of preserving our natural resources and preventing managerial writer's
cramp, the census form has been eliminated, effective immediately. Managers may
register their warriors' races and/or favorite sayings by simply writing them on a
separate piece of paper and submitting them to the Commission. Each warrior may have
up to 15 favorite sayings. Each saying must be categorized Jeer, Gloat, Boredom, Ouch,
Victory and may be up to 70 characters long. For any questions, please contact the
Gladiatorial Commission.
TEAM AND CHARACTER MAINTENANCE SERVICE
As a service to all managers, we offer team and character maintenance. This
option allows you to make sure your team or selected warriors will never miss a turn!
Team Maintenance: This will cause all warriors on that team to fight every
turn; if it's an AD arena, any new warriors who arrive on that team will
fight the turn they arrive. In A.D. or in transfer arenas where you have
multiple teams, each team will need to separately be on Team Maintenance.
(The only exception is new warriors; they will not fight until they have had
their initial strategy input.)
Character Maintenance: This will cause only that warrior to fight every
turn. If the character graduates or changes arenas, he/she/it will stay on
Character Maintenance.
In either case, you may submit strategy sheets for your warriors each turn, if
you wish. The Team/Character Maintenance will make sure your warriors fight each
turn, and they will always use their most recently entered strategy.
Remember that challenges, avoids, and challenge/if challenged strategies will not
carry through from turn to turn. These sections are only used on the turn they are
entered. In order to continually challenge or avoid you will need to submit a
strategy sheet each time.
One other thing to remember about maintenance: Maintenance is not something
that you write on your turnsheet (like in demo tourneys). In order to add or remove
maintenance for a team or warrior, you must send a note to Customer Service. If you
just write things like this on your strategy sheet, they may or may not get done.
Likewise, don't write it on your personal ads. Please, please, please put it on a
separate piece of paper with "Customer Service" written on the top. If you don't,
well, you can imagine.
Thanks for your time. Good luck in Duelmasters! -- Green Eyes
TURF WAR XI EXTRAVAGANZA(TWIXIE)RULES (Rev 6-3-18)
(Estimated 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.
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 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 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 ? 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)
