                                     DM 45 VERSION

Do you want to join an arena contest with cool prizes, but always have trouble finding 
a partner?  Fret not!  I have just the contest for you!  No partners needed.  
Stormcrowe (DM 45) will be hosting a contest for single teams.  The rules are exactly 
the same as the current WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE contest in Kolact (DM 10), but for single 
teams!

Here is all the pertinent information so you can join us for a festive time in 
Stormcrowe!

Overview

A contest for Stormcrowe (DM 45) that runs 10 turns (starting turn 424, due 
05/19/2020).  One (1) team per manager.  Participating managers may not run multiple 
teams in the arena during the contest.

Premise

Master Darque is fiddling with Chaos Gates again, which creates CHAOS and randomness 
during the contest.  Turn 1 (Stormcrowe turn 424) and Turn 10 (Stormcrowe turn 433) 
will be scored using STANDARD scoring (explained below).  Turns 2 through 9 will use a 
wide variety scoring mechanisms and will be randomly determined as the contest 
progresses using a random generator.  The scoring mechanisms will be posted in 
Stormcrowe's newsletter two (2) turns in advance, as well as on the D2 website under 
the contest forums.

Entry

Entry into the contest is open to anyone who meets the following criteria:

1) Bring a team to Stormcrowe (DM 45).

2) Each manager must declare their intention to participate in the contest BEFORE Turn 
1 of The WHEEL OF MISFORTUNE contest (No exceptions will be made).  Declarations must 
include A) TEAM NAME and B) MANAGER NAME.  You can submit a declaration by:

        the Subject Line)
     d. Private Message in the Duel2 Chatzy channel

**NOTE:  Failure to meet these criteria by the deadline will result in NO ENTRY into

to avoid any misfortunes.

     warriors' list (e.g. +10 for second least popular, + 9 for third least popular, 
     etc)  Only warriors listed on the least popular list will score points (between 
     +10 and +1).

Option 5 -- Slaughter Priest Memorial (DM 54)

 No Challenges (DA fights scored regularly; avoids allowed)
  3 points for winning
  3 points for killing (giving 6 in total, 3 for the win and 3 for the kill)
  3 points for at least one of your warriors writing a personal (regardless of number 
     of personals beyond one you still only get three points).  Make sure it is 
     written from one of your team's warriors and not simply the manager entity or you 
     will not get the points.
 -3 points for losing
 -3 points for being killed (giving -6 in total, -3 for losing and -3 for being 
     killed)
Special Note:  Challenging during an SPM scoring turn will result in disqualification.

Option 6 -- Turf War (DM 47)
 Team Points:
     Fights made:
          1 = 0 points,  2 = 0 points,  3 = 1 point,  4 = 3 points,  5 = 5 points
     Wins earned:
          1 = 1 point,  2 = 3 points,  3 = 6 points,  4 = 10 points,  5 = 15 points
     Down Challenge = (-5) points each (DM is exempt from DC rule)
     Team with most wins per round earns 4 additional points (If ties, no points 
          awarded)

 Alliance Points:
     Fights made (DA fights count as a fight made)
          All (each) team of the alliance fights 1 to 3 warriors = 3 points
          All (each) team fights 4+ warriors = 6 points
          All (each) team fights all five warriors = 9
          Alliance with most wins per that round = 5 points (If tied, no points 
          awarded.)

Option 7 -- Morya Madness (DM 28)

 +3 points to the highest ranked warrior of each style.  Highest ranked is the highest 
    recognition total, regardless of record.  If case of a tie in recognition points, 
    win/loss percentage will be the tie breaker, followed by total kills (warrior).
 +5 Top Team on the Move descending scoring down to #5 (e.g. +5 for first, +4 for 
    second, etc).
 +2 Successful Bloodfeud.  Bloodfeud victories for kills that did not occur during the 
    contest do not count to this total.
 +5 Most Avoided Squad (teammates avoiding one another will not be counted)
 -5 Most Avoiding Squad
 +5 Most Turn's Most Favorite
 +5 Most Turn's Least Favorite

Option 8 -- Mordant Olympics (DM 1) -- Only Available Turns 6-9

 The three teams with the best win-loss record from the previous contest turns (who 
 meet minimum fight criteria).  Cumulative kills and total recognition will serve as 
 tie breaks if needed.

 Gold -- 25 points
 Silver -- 15 points
 Bronze -- 10 Points

 + 3 Points for an Attacker [Challenge] Win (Challenges against squad-mates will incur 
     a -2 point penalty)
 +3 Points for a Defender [being Challenged] Win (Challenges from squad-mates will 
     incur a -2 point penalty)

Option 9 -- Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse (DM 45)

 +5 Win
 -3 Death
 +5 Kill
 Wins and kills against Arena Stand Bys and Squad-mates will not be scored (Please 
 note:  Death against any opponent will be scored with a -3).  Dark Arena fights will 
 be scored regularly.

                                      SPY REPORT

     It's me, The Unknown Spymaster, back to give you this week's Spy Report.  Sit 
back in your seats and we'll have more fun than a barrel of Zontanis.  Say good-bye 
to DRIPPING WITH..., as they are pushed from the coveted top team spot by the MEDAL 
OF HONOR AAC stable.  Take a look at PROJECT MAYHEM 39's act, as they have a 1-0-0 
week and gain 15 places in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of 
armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is THIRSTY THUGS 0504, who swept up 21 
places in the ranks.  Take a look at THIRSTY THUGS 1502's act, as they have a 1-0-0 
week and gain 32 places in the team ranking.  Rising in the ranks like a loaf of 
armored bread (okay, I admit it's corny) is 070910H, who swept up 33 places in the 
ranks.  Suffering under a 0-2-0 record and dropping from 9th to 24th place were the 
SUHT YOURSELF.  Keep trying!  A seasoned team is steady in the lists.  But to ERROR 
S, which fell to 40th, it's what you soak in before going to the Dark Arena.  Take a 
look at MEDAL OF HONOR M1's act, as they have a 1-0-0 week and gain 17 places in the 
team ranking.  What goes up, must come down.  Watch out BLACKSTONE!  THE DONALD may 
fall on you as it crushes past the teams below it to fall on the 52nd spot.  
Suffering under a 0-2-0 record and dropping from 7th to 56th place were the ERRFIVE.  
Keep trying!  A seasoned team is steady in the lists.  But to PINKEST OF FLOYD, which 
fell to 58th, it's what you soak in before going to the Dark Arena.  What goes up, 
must come down.  Watch out BLACKSTONE!  MRI may fall on you as it crushes past the 
teams below it to fall on the 61st spot.  Suffering under a 0-1-0 record and dropping 
from 42nd to 63rd place were the ERRONE.  Keep trying!  A seasoned team is steady in 
the lists.  But to ERRTWO, which fell to 64th, it's what you soak in before going to 
the Dark Arena.  Hey everybody, watch out for QUATIN, who flew up 33 points in the 
rankings after mashing EMBEZZLING SCRIBE like a melon.  Keep your eye on this beast.  
Ya know, some days it doesn't pay to walk out on the sands.  WATER was subdued by THE 
RED ROOM and drops 16 points.  It's a proud day for the THIRSTY THUGS 1451 stable, as 
their warrior, VAINLY ASSAULT, ascended the Duelmaster's throne.  An apple a day 
keeps the doctor away, but an onion a day keeps T.P.s at bay.   
     But enough of that bunch, let's get on to the wimps who like to avoid battle!  
Here's a song for you:  Who's afraid of the big, bad 070910H?  Big bad 070910H.  Big 
bad 070910H.  BLACKSTONE's afraid of the big bad 070910H.  Tra la la la la!  For 
those of you who like math, try this one:  070910H + Weapons That go Boom = THE 
DONALD + Avoid City.  Well dang howdy, but if challenges were votes, BILLY JOE would 
be president.  Although it may be a contest he doesn't want to win.  In a touching 
display by a 'touched' warrior, FAT OLD SUN went after UNION, who was higher by 22 
points.  Well, when the dust settled, FAT OLD SUN was beat by UNION.   
     Being a spy is great--other people die and you spend the rest of the day 
drinking to their memory.  Better tanked than dead!  Ask not the elves for counsel, 
for they will say both yes and no.  Silly buggers, eh?   
     Well, there's the manager of the BLACKSTONE giving me the 'cut' sign (or is that 
'They're going to strangle you in the alley?).  C'mon, Leadfoot, let's make some 
tracks.  Its been fun, and I'm sure you enjoyed it (boos).  Now that I've got you 
worked up for Snide Clemens, I'll be leaving-- The Unknown Spymaster
