     Hail and well met warriors of BLACKSTONE!  Know me for who I am, Zontani Sharp 
Eyes, Spymaster extraordinaire of all Alastari.  The proverbial rising comet can only 
hope to compare with LUROCIAN IDIOTS' team record!  A 2-0-0 week and now a firm grasp 
on a 2nd place ranking.  I have begun to suspect trickery on the part of LUROCIANS 
FTF12F.  How else weeks like this one's 1-0-0?  How else the sudden move to 4th team? 
The proverbial rising comet can only hope to compare with LUROCIAN REPTILES' team 
record!  A 1-0-0 week and now a firm grasp on a 5th place ranking.  I have begun to 
suspect trickery on the part of MEDAL OF HONOR AAC.  How else weeks like this one's 
2-0-0?  How else the sudden move to 8th team?  The proverbial rising comet can only 
hope to compare with MEDAL OF HONOR Y1's team record!  A 1-0-0 week and now a firm 
grasp on a 16th place ranking.  I have begun to suspect trickery on the part of MEDAL 
OF HONOR W4.  How else weeks like this one's 1-0-0?  How else the sudden move to 17th 
team?  The proverbial rising comet can only hope to compare with MEDAL OF HONOR O3's 
team record!  A 1-0-0 week and now a firm grasp on a 18th place ranking.  I have 
begun to suspect trickery on the part of THE DONALD.  How else weeks like this one's 
0-1-0?  How else the sudden move to 19th team?  The proverbial rising comet can only 
hope to compare with THIRSTY THUGS 1413's team record!  A 1-0-0 week and now a firm

LUROCIANS TEMPE 13C.  How else weeks like this one's 1-0-0?  How else the sudden move

DEMONS' team record!  A 1-0-0 week and now a firm grasp on a 28th place ranking.  I

bore the brunt of major assault on their standings this week as they dropped to 63rd 
position as the result of going 0-1-0!  My tutors were fond of telling me that the 
higher you rise the harder you fall.  This week MEDAL OF HONOR AAF went 0-2-0 and 
fell 61 notches into 66th!  WHO DO YA LOVE? bore the brunt of major assault on their 
standings this week as they dropped to 70th position as the result of going 0-1-0!  
My tutors were fond of telling me that the higher you rise the harder you fall.  This 
week BODY BY OTTO went 0-2-0 and fell 36 notches into 71st!  MEDAL OF HONOR GB bore 
the brunt of major assault on their standings this week as they dropped to 75th 
position as the result of going 0-1-0!  JELLYFISH HUSSY caught the eye of many in the 
gladiatorial commission as he skillfully bested SSG 1 and was awarded 27 points in 
recognition.  In one of the week's more notable duels, JUSTALYNE AIRIS put down 
SKOACH, causing him to lose 15 points of recognition in the process.  The city has 
turned out in honor of RUDOLPH DAVILA, for with his arena victory he may now lay 
claim to the highest position in the city!  No confirmation, but my sources claim 
that the top team has gained their position using magical aids.  Charmed weapons 
perhaps?   
     Many and various are the arts of battle.  In BLACKSTONE "art" is a word that has 
long since passed from the language!  BLACKSTONE, city of gladiators!  Mighty among 
the names of thy guilds is THE DONALD, a guild shunned and avoided by many in the 
weekly duels.  Methinks more than a few here could name the guild it was that spent 
the better part of last week avoiding THE DONALD.  Indeed it was LUROCIAN REPTILES.  
Mighty fighters cannot but expect competition from those below.  COTTONTAIL take 
warning!  You have more than a few enemies in BLACKSTONE.   
     Is not Death a warrior's foremost adviser?   Warriors, may this counselor stand 
ready at your right hand forever!  Fate is a fickle mistress.  She showers the 
miserable with fortune but sets enemies against the victorious.  Remember this!   
     The girls are as pretty in BLACKSTONE as ever I remembered them....and the 
fighters as ugly!  Don't let your reputation slip!  Sadly warriors, now longer can I 
keep thy company nor savor the ale of thy fine city.  Depart I must and soon!  Till 
we meet again, remember:  a turtle walks slow, hides head in a shell, and harms no 
one; a lion runs to slay its prey.-- Zontani Sharp Eyes

                                 RSI PANDEMIC UPDATE

We're doing okay out here in Arizona, staying mostly quiet and trying to stay healthy, 
and we hope you and your families are well.  Things are super weird right now.   
Here's a quick update on what's coming up: 

Summer 2020 Face-to-Face:  In case there is any lingering doubt, the 2020 summer face-
to-face is cancelled.  It just doesn't seem wise to hold it, and feedback is that most 
of you would not be able to attend.  Better to stay safe and stay at home, this time.  

Summer 2020 Mail-In:  So we'll hold a mail-in tournament this summer.  It will be held 
on the weekend of July 17-19, 2020.  We are still finalizing the format--look for the 
tournament announcement shortly after the freeze on June 6th. 

Halloween 2020 Mail-In:  Should be able to take place as normal.  We bandied about the 
idea of having a Fall FTF, but that doesn't look like a good idea.  

Winter 2021 Face-to-Face:  We have already secured a contract for the Winter FTF in 
Tempe for our usual Martin Luther King weekend, January 15-17, 2021 and are crossing 
our fingers that we will be able to hold that tournament in person, but there is still 
some chance that we will need to cancel it as well.  I expect we will know for certain 
in November or December.  Please mark it on your calendars and feel free to get hotel 
reservations, but don't buy non-refundable plane tickets!  (We are waiting for the 
group code for reservations and will post it when we get it.) 

Summer 2021 Face-to-Face:  Surely we'll be able to have this one! *crossed fingers*  
We're looking at the midwest cities for this one (Cincinnati or Minneapolis), so stay 
tuned.

                            THE BLOODGAMES HAVE RETURNED! 

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 three will be crowned 
Bloodgames Champions and be invited to the Isle of the Eye!  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!  

By popular demand, we will hold THREE Bloodgames arenas -- a regular and slow 
Bloodgames by mail, and a Bloodgames which will run with the mail-in tourney!  

    DM 95:  slow bloodgames (due every four weeks, due July 20)  
    DM 98:  regular speed bloodgames (due every two weeks, due July 20) 
    DM 99:  mail-in style bloodgames (processed with the tourney, due July 15)

Gameplay in the Bloodgames proceeds according to standard DM rules, except for a few 
notable exceptions: 

* STARTING A BLOODGAMES TEAM -- You don't need a special rollup to enter the 
bloodgames.  Your Bloodgames team is ten warriors, one of each fighting style, each 
warrior designed from scratch!  (All are 84 points, 3-21, as usual.)  Simply list your 
ten warriors and send them to us; we will send you back overviews of your warriors so 
you can submit strategies.  The first turn is due mid-July and subsequent turns will 
be due on Mondays.  

* 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.  There are no 
replacements -- once a warrior dies, that's it!  

* STRATEGIES AND CHALLENGES -- New strategies may be issued for each turn for the 
regular and slow bloodgames, while the mail-in bloodgames will process all ten rounds 
with a single strategy.  The only type of challenge available is a bloodfeud.  

* 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.  Bloodgames 
Champions may write a column for the newsletter at the end of the games. 

* AWARDS -- The Bloodgames last ten rounds.  The top three living warriors with the 
greatest number of kills, only one of each style, are deemed Bloodgames Champions.  
Win/loss records and, if necessary, recognition points will only be used to determine 
awards if there is a tie.  All three Bloodgames Champions fight for free for six 
months and can issue one Tournament Victor challenge each turn, allowing them to 
challenge with increased priority, also for six months. 

* FEES -- A Bloodgames rollup costs a $10 set-up fee.  Managers may roll up additional 
teams but may fight only one team in each arena.  The fee is $49 for all 10 rounds. 

* 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 Bloodgames Champions:  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!
