                             REPORT FROM WITHIN THE TOWER

Hi there.

     No one died, no one avoided, and no one challenged except for Evil Elmo who used
his Tournament Victor challenge.
     EVIL ELMO (99-1222) (75-37-4,238) of TWISTED SESAME TV challenged CHIEF
STORMCLOUD (51-4306) (39-18-1,208) of RAINDANCE.  EVIL ELMO was viciously subdued by
CHIEF STORMCLOUD in a 3 minute Challenge fight.  This makes Chief Stormcloud our most
challenged warrior, as well as the victor in this fight.  Congratulations to you
both!
     Ah, the title fight.  Needless to say, it was a little on the... how shall I say
it... uneventful side.  NEOSPHINCTER (18-7317) (106-38-1,483) of WASTELAND fought
GATEWAY (82-15631) (48-36-0,214) of ATTACK OF THE CLONES.  NEOSPHINCTER demolished
GATEWAY in a popular 1 minute one-sided Title melee.  *yawns*  Sure would be nice if
the sphincter would challenge.
     Longest fight:  TWIG (82-25226) (63-41-0,201) of POWER PLAY fought SUPER BUM
(82-18411) (89-50-2,206) of FLAT BROKE.  TWIG was narrowly defeated by SUPER BUM in a
popular 5 minute gruesome fight.
     Overall popularity leader:  Crack is Cheap.  CRACK IS CHEAP (82-18422) (58-78-
0,205) of NEGATIVE CASH FLOW fought LAUGHING BARMAID (104-9) (0-0-0,170) of ARENA
STAND-INS.  CRACK IS CHEAP unbelievably bested LAUGHING BARMAID in an exciting 2
minute fight.
     This Turn's Favorite:  Tallahasse Tina.  TALLAHASSE TINA (7-4889) (17-73-0,58)
of BEACH BABES fought PRISONER 0103 (82-33733) (22-56-0,30) of DUNGEON CELL 21.
TALLAHASSE TINA was luckily beaten by PRISONER 0103 in an exciting 5 minute fight.
It really was an exciting fight.  I decided to do an interview with Tina, and met up
with her as she came out of the locker room.  "What did you think of that fight,
Tina?" "Good fight," she said.  And that was it.
     Least popular was Patch.  PATCH (36-7297) (15-8-0,45) of SEA DOGS fought DEATH
MAGE (62-2115) (16-7-1,68) of DEATH MOB.  PATCH was vanquished by DEATH MAGE in a 1
minute mismatched duel.
     Our top Total Parry is One a Day.  ONE A DAY (98-799) (93-52-3,296) of MY DRUGS
fought LOCAL CONSTABLE (104-22) (0-0-0,181) of ARENA STAND-INS.  ONE A DAY viciously
subdued LOCAL CONSTABLE in a crowd pleasing 3 minute brutal fight.  It wasn't the
longest fight.  Everyone knows that the best examples of the defensive styles are
anything but scummy.  They just use more finesse than the all-offense warriors.
     Speaking of offensive styles, our top Lunger is Goku.  GOKU (7-5628) (74-33-
0,239) of WASTELAND II fought SHEWISH GIANT (104-25) (0-0-0,181) of ARENA STAND-INS.
GOKU viciously subdued SHEWISH GIANT in an exciting 2 minute brutal contest.  Two
minutes!  Wow.
     My very favorite style is the Wall of Steel, and for that, we need to look at
??RADAR?? (82-20310) (38-56-1,210) of DYSLEXICS UNTIE! II fought WORK IN PROGRESS
(38-4193) (42-144-2,170) of JUST BECAUSE.  ??RADAR?? overpowered WORK IN PROGRESS in
an exciting 1 minute one-sided fight.  ??RADAR?? (82-20310) (38-56-1,210) of
DYSLEXICS UNTIE! II fought WORK IN PROGRESS (38-4193) (42-144-2,170) of JUST BECAUSE.
??RADAR?? overpowered WORK IN PROGRESS in an exciting 1 minute one-sided fight.
     One of the older spyreporters keeps pointing out that blood on a purple robe may
stain.  And then Debby Tonte always mentions that you should soak it in cold water,
and hand wash.  Yeah, yeah.  In the arena, wear reddish-brown clothes -- the color of
dried blood.  Then you can just wash them the same as everything else.  We're not
Adantri.  Don't wear your pretty things into the arena.

                            Starting Nov 2008 (10 turns)

Anyone may participate; known alliances, new alliances, or temporary alliances created solely to compete in the Turf War!  To participate, each alliance must:
        1.  Announce the alliance and the Captain of the alliance in the North Fork
            (DM 47) newsletter.
        2.  Announcements made on the D2 Forums will not be accepted.

Captains are responsible for:
        1.  Verifying those who wish to participate under the banner of their
            alliance;
        2.  Distribution of prizes should their alliance win the Turf War.
        3.  Submit one (1) RSI Roll-Up Certificate to participate

Participating managers who are not Captains must:
        1.  Submit one (1) RSI Roll-Up Certificate to participate
        2.  Announce their intent to compete with manager name, team name, and
            alliance they will represent in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter.
            Announcement made on the D2 Forums will not be accepted.
               a.  No scores will be tabulated until a Gift Certificate is received.
                   No EXCEPTIONS.
               b.  Before a manager can compete, he/she must declare themselves in
                   the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter as stated above AND be verified
                   by the alliance Captain they will represent.
               c.  Only one (1) team per player may compete.  No multiple teams or
                   aliases will be allowed.  Violations will result in immediate
                   disqualification from the Turf War (so be sure to take any
                   multiple teams OFF of Team Maintenance).
               d.  Scoring will NOT be retroactive for teams that do not properly
                   declare 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 scoring
                   will not begin until Turn 3.  All conditions must be met before
                   scoring will begin--declaration, verification, and Gift
                   Certificate received.
               e.  No declarations or verifications will be accepted after Turn 5 of
                   the Turf War.
               f.  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.

Scoring will be as follows for Fights:
                Win   Loss   Kill      Die
Challenge        +2     -2     +5       -5
Match Up         +1     -1     +1       -5
Bloodfeud        +2     -5     +5      -10

Champion         x2     x2     x2       x2
Dark Arena*     +10     -5     xx       xx
*After 2nd win, warrior scores no points for wins

Special Scoring Considerations for the Turf War are as follows:
Spy Report mention (team name only)              +2
Style Master                                     +2
Duelmaster                                       +2

Champions:
     1.  A Champion may be declared, but one is not mandatory.
     2.  Only one Champion allowed per manager at any given time.
     3.  Champions that graduate or are killed by another warrior in the arena, but
         not the Dark Arena, may be replaced.
     4.  Champions must be in the Adepts bracket or lower on the turn they are
         declared, and may NOT have gone above Adepts level at any time; this
         includes teams transferred into North Fork for the Turf War.

Bloodfeuds:
        1.  Bloodfeuds will score points on all four (4) turns.
        2.  There is no limit to which warrior may bloodfeud or how often.

Tournament Considerations:
        1.  Tournament participation is ALLOWED and encouraged.
        2.  Tournament Victors won during the course of the contest will gain a one
            (1) time bonus of 25 points.  This bonus will apply EACH time a
            warrior(s) wins such status.
        3.  Tournament Champions won during the course of the contest will gain a one
            (1) time bonus of 50 points.  This bonus will apply EACH time a
            warrior(s) win such status.
        4.  Points for TVs and TCs will be applied the Turn after RSI posts
            tournament results in the North Fork (DM 47) newsletter (i.e., if the
            results post on North Fork turn 275, points will be credited on North
            Fork turn 276 to the applicable teams).

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 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.
        3.  There will be a maximum of seven (7) teams allowed per alliance for the
            Turf War.
        4.  The Dark Arena may be used on the first turn only, of every warrior,
            without penalty.

Prizes:
The Turf War is a "winner take all" contest.  All prizes and 100% of the Gift
Certificates will be awarded to the Captain of the winning alliance.  It is the
responsibility of the Captain to distribute Gift Certificates.  Moderators will
submit a list of each manager on the winning alliance to RSI at the completion of the
contest for the non-Certificate prizes.

The following prizes have been secured from RSI:
        1.  Renaming of the North Fork (DM 47) arena;
        2.  Renaming of Dark Arena Monsters (one for each manager in the winning
            alliance);
        3.  Known Favorites for one warrior on each team of the winning alliance
            (warrior must be ranked Initiate or above, must be alive, and must have
            at least one arena fight to receive this award).
        4.  +1 Skill bonus potion for each manager on the winning alliance.  Bonus
            potion must be applied to a living warrior from (DM 47)
        5.  +1 Skill bonus potion (one) for each manager who fights in all 10 rounds
            AND 45 fights of the Turf War.  Bonus potion must be applied to a living

These awards will be listed by the Moderator for claiming from RSI (Lee) within 4
turns of the end of TW VI.
