                                      SPY REPORT

     Well, what are you looking at, BLACKSTONE?  Ain't you never seen Snide Clemens 
before?  Ah, shaddup and listen to my news.  Later days, ACID RAIN, since DISPOSABLE 
HEROES took top team from you this turn, you guys are old news.  If The Dripping 
Blade is buying drinks for THE MOTHERSHIP AG's good turn, I'm afraid the place will 
be dry before long.  A 3-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into 
The Dripping Blade and join MEDAL OF HONOR 14C's celebration over their good record 
this turn.  4th place, not bad.  If The Dripping Blade is buying drinks for MEDAL OF 
HONOR 14G's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before long.  A 1-0-0 makes 
for a big thirst.  With any luck, I can sneak into The Dripping Blade and join MEDAL 
OF HONOR 15P's celebration over their good record this turn.  14th place, not bad.  
If The Dripping Blade is buying drinks for MEDAL OF HONOR 14AR's good turn, I'm 
afraid the place will be dry before long.  A 1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  With any 
luck, I can sneak into The Dripping Blade and join BUBBA'S FILTH's celebration over 
their good record this turn.  16th place, not bad.  Why not, I'm having a good day, 
so I feel sorry for MINDCRIMES, who went 0-1-0 and dropped 16 into 18th.  Here's my 
pity, for what it's worth.  Look out below!  SOUL STEALERS is on the way down, 
falling to 21st from 5th with a 1-0-0!  Ha ha ha ha!  If The Dripping Blade is buying 
drinks for THIRSTY THUGS 1332's good turn, I'm afraid the place will be dry before 
long.  A 1-0-0 makes for a big thirst.  Oh, this is too good to be true!  PROJECT 
MAYHEM 34 has fallen to 26th place after going 0-1-0 this turn.  Who's bragging now?  
Why not, I'm having a good day, so I feel sorry for ROOKIE HALEN 18, who went 0-1-0 
and dropped 11 into 30th.  Here's my pity, for what it's worth.  Look out below!  
BRITONS is on the way down, falling to 34th from 22nd with a 0-2-0!  Ha ha ha ha!  
Oh, this is too good to be true!  SISTERS OF MERCY has fallen to 36th place after 
going 0-1-0 this turn.  Who's bragging now?  Of course, we're all terribly impressed 
to see CRYING SAX win a fight and gain 19 points, terribly.  Tsk, tsk, CRYING SAX 
beat ROBERT PAULSON 107 and ROBERT PAULSON 107 lost 18 points.  You're breakin' my 
heart.  And it's out with the old, in with the new, as OF THE BRAVE takes the Title 
and last week's bar tab from the old Duelmaster.  Heh, heh.  Kickbacks and bribes, 
kickbacks and bribes, how else do you think some of these guys win their fights?  
Skill?  Ha!   
     He who fights and runs away will live to fight another day, the coward.   
     Death and Taxes.  The less death I see, the more it taxes my patience.  Let's 
see if anyone's dead or dying.  Bye bye, warrior, bye bye...  JOHN MINICK, a glorious 
6-9-0 fighter, has passed away.  Gee, too bad MEDAL OF HONOR B7.  We're all going to 
die in the end, so why worry if the fate catches up with you sooner that later?   
     There's got to be a better place in BLACKSTONE to get a drink than The Dripping 
Blade!  Any suggestions?  Well, I've had enough of this drivel, and I'm sure you have 
too.  Off like a dirty shirt of padded leather.  I see the crowds are getting 
restless, I must leave now-- Snide Clemens

         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)
