                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Great warriors of Talahya!

     Well, The Butcher had no idea, when he got up this morning, that he was going to
be fighting for the Title.  But a random match catapulted the savage young lunger
straight to the top.  SNAPPY GEORGE (42-4015) (61-57-0,300) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought
THE BUTCHER (21-5374) (46-23-0,245) of NASTY MOB.  SNAPPY GEORGE was viciously
subdued by THE BUTCHER in an exciting 4 minute Title bout.
     No one died.  Good.
     The guild including the teams Un, Rescue Rangers, Trial & Error, Errata, Eratum,
and Get (currently ranked #21), was responsible for both avoids this cycle.  Well
done!  Nickel and Pelican, congratulations to your alert and caring manager!  Let's
see how the two of you did...
     * CEREBRAL JANITOR (18-7729) (72-61-0,231) of CENTER FOR OLDS fought NICKEL (26-
4240) (37-36-0,195) of ERRATUM.  CEREBRAL JANITOR overpowered NICKEL in a crowd
pleasing 2 minute one-sided duel.  What's this?  A random match?  Your manager posted
an avoid for you but not a challenge?  How strange.  Nickel avoided Letter Bombs, by
the way.
     * SLEEPWALKER (74-2843) (24-36-1,119) of DARKLINGS fought PELICAN (41-3949) (27-
27-0,137) of BIRDS.  SLEEPWALKER was devastated by PELICAN in a 1 minute one-sided
battle.  Once more, a random match.  I confess, I do not understand this strategy.
Don't you avoid who might challenge you, in order to increase the chance of your own
challenges going through?  Why avoid Neverwake then?
     Oh my stars and garters!  Talk about a mismatch!  HO-CHAN THE AXE (75-670) (163-
179-3,282) of SAND DANCERS fought JR. GORK (48-1909) (48-28-0,191) of THE BEARS.  HO-
CHAN THE AXE overpowered JR. GORK in a popular 3 minute brutal one-sided duel.  Of
course, Ho-Chan is our top-ranked Striker, actually having more recognition points
than the Tower Guardian himself.  And he is, as always, our Overall Popularity
Leader.  He fought today in a suit of sky-blue silk, which was not marred with his
own blood although I suspect some of JR. Gork's may have spattered on it.  Ho-Chan
now has 303 points.
     Butcher, I'd like to draw your attention to the fact that, at 255 recognition
points, you actually have four warriors ranked above you, three of whom you could
challenge.  So you have the rare chance, as an arena leader, to challenge UP.
     Let's look at those warriors.  Ho-Chan we've already discussed...
     * Youcankeeptheduck, our taciturn and enigmatic Top Aimed Blow, is our third-
ranked warrior at 263 points.  THE NOTHING (1-3297) (56-58-0,215) of FANTASIA fought
YOUCANKEEPTHEDUCK (18-7355) (93-56-0,252) of CENTER FOR OLDS.  THE NOTHING was
overpowered by YOUCANKEEPTHEDUCK in a 1 minute one-sided fray.  Look, Butcher.  He
didn't challenge or avoid.  You could arrange a fight with him easily.  I wouldn't,
but you could.
     * Third Omen, at 259 points, didn't fight this cycle and so he can't be
challenged.
     * Ack Vert, at 256 points, is our premier Slasher, and possesses a very
formidable record!  ACK VERT (18-7429) (92-51-1,241) of PENTARCHIE-18 fought HAYWIRE
(65-5413) (19-7-1,193) of WHO ARMED THEM?.  ACK VERT handily defeated HAYWIRE in a
popular 1 minute one-sided duel.  That was a very uneven match in terms of
experience, so I wouldn't discout Haywire's competence.  Still, it looks like Ack
Vert is extremely formidable.
     And there, Butcher, are your three choices for an up-challenge.  Looking at
them...I wouldn't.  You're obviously a tough man and a fine gladiator...but I
wouldn't.
     In other news, Ty Del-Wave won the Scum Sympathy vote for managing not to be put
to sleep by Fog.  Fog has that effect on me, too.  I love it.  TY DEL-WAVE (29-3539)
(47-52-0,191) of FORCE OF NATURE challenged FOG (21-4416) (84-93-0,205) of EVENGATE.
TY DEL-WAVE savagely defeated FOG in a crowd pleasing 7 minute bloody Challenge
match.
     And let us not judge Nikita too harshly.  NIKITA (36-6639) (14-8-1,28) of BABES
fought AMBITIOUS GUARD (100-9) (0-0-0,0) of ARENA STAND-INS.  NIKITA was vanquished
by AMBITIOUS GUARD in a 1 minute one-sided struggle.  Nikita is new to the Isle, and
contrary to what you might think by that 0-0-0 record, that particular guard is
anything but inexperienced.
     That's it, I have to go.  Thanks for your time, my friends, enjoy this fine
autumn weather, and I'll join you for a cup of hot spiced cider in a fortnight.

So, here we are, mini-overs and split sheets.  From what Jorja's been saying, we're
looking at a shake-up in the active rosters in all our adm teams, probably in time
for November's first turn.  Bear that in mind when you set out to challenge any of
us. -- Ho-Chan the Axe

Saionji -- Ah, yes, the quest for perfection.  An old dream, but one that never seems
to fade, despite the fact that it is inherently unattainable.  Oh, well, good try,
young lady.  Better luck another time. -- Ho-Chan the Axe

Fork Ball -- Most peculiar.  I didn't care for it.  I'd rather go with a spoon ball
any day. -- Lini Dawnwind
P.S.  Free ball, fun ball, fire ball, fast ball, fly ball....

Crazed Goblin -- This is probably your fault!  I've been sent a notice of Induction,
and I will NOT go spend my days in frustration among the Primus warriors. -- Lethe

Notthur -- It was not "an honorable fight" if you used sorcery!  No way. -- Tatharli

Big Mac -- Ugh!  Pickles and onions and they slide and bring the catsup out with them
and it's all a total MESS besides hiding the taste of the meat.  Which is probably a
good thing, not tasting the meat.  I doubt it's the highest quality. -- True Blue

Sam -- Wow, six skills!  That's just outstanding!  I don't think I ever learned that
many all at once before. -- Tillise Ulam

Ozymandias -- Well...I suppose if gladiating was the sole focus of my life, I might
despair at losing to you.  But then again, maybe not.  And since it is NOT the sole
focus, this isn't a problem at all!  I haven't decided yet what I want to BE the
focus, but I have time--now--to think about it.  Maybe something with fashion, or
maybe fine cooking, or maybe something that hasn't even occurred to me yet.  We'll
see. -- Belissa Hough

Galen -- No doubt.  But if you haven't gauged the cargo weight very carefully, you
will end up with walnut-and-whatever paste on the street.  And the whatever isn't
usually something you want to eat. -- Ho-Chan the Axe
P.S.  Bear in mind that you have to use paved streets for this.  Dirt won't do it,
especially when damp.

     Oh, yes.  A light cargo wagon.  And the walnut should be placed on a clean
     handkerchief.  And flat pavement.  If you try to do it on cobblestones, the
     walnut may actually get squirted out from under the wheel and strike a large,
     burly candy vendor in the neck, leading to a complete loss of your walnut and
     dire threats, making it necessary to flee.  Not that anything like this ever
     happened to me.  And just in case the walnut DOES fly, even on flat pavement,
     make sure the handkerchief you use doesn't have your name embroidered on it. --
     Galen

Chip -- (grimacing)  Rethinking this career, I am. -- Gazelle

La Tour -- You should've held onto your weapon.  At least it didn't break. -- Rem

Rainsong -- (yawning)  Rain makes me sleepy. -- Sleepwalker

HK-47 -- Woot!  Skills!  Thank you! -- Sandman

15 managers have announced for the Stormcrowe Slaughterhouse!!!!!!  There is still 
time to join and make a name for yourself in one of Alastari's fiercest contests!  I

of the contest.  You may also email or diplo Master Darque.

Certificate.  Only certificates will be accepted for entry.  All certificates 
submitted will be used during the course of the contest as prizes.

*RU certificates must be received on or before the first turn of the contest which is 
Stormcrowe Turn 263 (running approximately November 27, 2007).

Stormcrowe newsletter beginning with Turn 260 and in a final all arena ad in 
November.

PRIZES

ENDURANCE AWARD:  One (1) +1 Bonus Potion will be given to every team that competes 
in 60 of the 65 contest fights.

Special note from RSI on prizes:  All contest prizes must be used within three 
months.  All contest prizes may only be used on a living warrior on the participating 
contest team in DM 45.  The immortality potion may resurrect a warrior one time, 
after a death in DM 45 only, after which time the potion disappears.

diplo in DM 45 (Darque Forces-428).

20 September 2007
Ok, ok, you can stop not-talking about TOGS VI already, it is coming, slowly but
surely, like a giant, over-fed, greased slug sliding down a gravely driveway.  We're
looking for new-comers, old-timers, in-betweeners, fence-sitters and Delarquans to
come on out and participate.  Just think, you could be the next Pinky & the Brain
pairing (a la Creepster & Manager), or maybe you'll be the team that crushes all in
its path on the way TO UTTER AND COMPLETE TOGS DOMINATION!!!!!!  [note:  insert
sinister cackle if it helps you complete the picture]

There will be a few minor changes, so let's recap the rules from top to bottom:

1.  Each TOGS team consists of two managers.  After the contest starts, there will be
no switching partners whatsoever, so choose your teammate wisely.  TOGS VI will last
for 13 turns, so pick a partner you can stand for 6 months or so.

2.  The TOGS entry fee is 2 team setups per manager.  This means 4 setups per TOGS
team.  This entry fee is required before the start of the tourney with no exceptions
being made.  This is to ensure that nobody gets screwed if a team or manager decides
to back out early.  To pay the entry fee either:
     a)  send $10 cash/check/money order/ or whatever to me personally at:
          Paul Jokelson
          115 Moss Ave. #201
          Oakland, CA 94611
     b)  get RSI to send me 2 team setup gift certificates.  Sorry, no credit cards
         and no old teams you have lying around will be accepted.

3. TOGS point system:

Fights: 

10 points for winning on your up-challenge against another TOGS warrior.
 7 points for winning on your even challenge of another TOGS warrior.
 7 points for winning on another TOGS warriors challenge.
 7 points for winning a random match-up against another TOGS warrior.
 4 points for winning on your down-challenge of another TOGS warrior.
 4 points for winning a random match-up against a non-TOGS warrior.

Changes this TOGS: 

** 10 points for any challenge by the DM, UP OR DOWN!!
** 4 points for winning a random match-up against your TOGS partner's warrior.
To state the obvious, there are 0 points if you challenge your partner.

** 4 points for winning a bloodfeud attempt against you by a non-TOGS warrior

You will not get any points if you challenge or get challenged by a non-TOGS team
(with the exception of the above-stated rule if you get bloodfeuded), so use your
avoids wisely if you think someone is out to get you.

Spots/Ads

5 points for every spotlight written by any team member.  1 per manager per turn.

The minimum length of a spotlight to receive points is 1/2 column in the newsletter
(that's 31 lines-each line 85 characters across) and we will be completely firm on
this.  In addition to the length criteria, spotlights will not be given points if
they are in any way plagiarized or if they are not Duelmasters or fantasy related.
We will be the sole judge of this.  If you're unsure if we will judge something to be
Duelmasters or fantasy related, then e-mail me before you write the spotlight and
ask.  We reserve the right to take points away from a spotlight after they are given
if we judge at later time that the spotlight has been plagiarized.

-5 points per manager per turn every time a manager does not at least write one
personal ad.

4.  TOGS VI will start in arena 60 shortly after the Winter Face-to-Face (turn due
Feb 21, Aradi turn 436) and as mentioned before will last for 13 turns.  There will
be multipliers in the later rounds, which means that all points accumulated by a team
on turns 10 and 11 will be multiplied by 1.5 and all points accumulated by each team
on turns 12 and 13 will be multiplied by 2.

5.  Soultaker and Nuln will be the sole arbiters of any dispute that may arise, with
props to Sentinel for doing the score-keeping as always.  Whine all you like, we will
be glad to provide comfortable chairs and the cheese of your choice.

And there be the rules.  If you look closely, you'll notice there were a few minor
changes and additions made from the TOGS V rules.  They are as follows:

-- The Snotman & Nuln rule:  Last TOGS Snotman and Nuln randomly matched up something
like 4-5 times, so we basically decided out of pity to now give a small amount of
points (4 in this case) for winning a random against a teammate, so that you're not
completely screwed by having 2 of your 10 warriors get 0 zero points automatically.

-- Scaling Down Points for the DM:  Previously a TOGS DM would get 10 points *in
addition* to whatever challenge points they got.  This was to keep the DM from being
penalized for being at the top and give people something to fight for.  However, it
was a bit too much of an award and we decided to scale it back and eliminate the
bonus, but give full upchallenge credit whenever the DM challenges.

-- Bloodfeuds from outside TOGS teams:  This incident came up last TOGS, and it was
felt that if a person killed a non-TOGS warrior in a random, they shouldn't have to
be potentially locked into 4 turns of getting 0 points.  So we've added an additional
rule which now gives 4 points if you win when bloodfeuded by a non-TOGS warrior, at
least giving you some way to get points if you're locked into a non-TOGS bloodfeud
instead of being basically removed from the contest for 4 turns.

And lastly...

-- Team Names:  This was not listed in the rules, but to make things more festive, at
the suggestion of Manager we have decided to have the added dimension of team names!
Yes, no more boring rankings with Team 4 edging out Team 7.  Just picture reading a
TOGS turn report now, with something along the lines of "Team Fiery Starfish
obliterated Team Superior TOGSlings," just as one example.

We hope to see you all there....
