Hello!

Ten fights, no challenges, no avoids... hmm.  The stylemasters are exactly the same as 
last turn, and so is the Champion of the Horn.  

THE HYPHEN-DASH (42-4499) (98-84-1,343) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought SYE THE BEARDED (81-
801) (41-32-1,208) of BIG LAKE OUTCASTS.  THE HYPHEN-DASH devastated SYE THE BEARDED 
in a 1 minute mismatched Title fight.  Mr. Dash is our top Lunger and, of course, the 
holder of the Horn.

BEDDER (18-10043) (72-106-4,326) of CENTER FOR OLDS fought TELGOR (107-27) (0-0-
0,200).  BEDDER lost to TELGOR in an action packed 1 minute brutal battle.  Bedder is 
top Striker.

1977 AMC MATADOR (42-4116) (130-92-0,247) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought MOD COD (55-2638) 
(285-192-4,189) of RHYME TYME.  1977 AMC MATADOR was overpowered by MOD COD in a 1 
minute mismatched duel.  The Matador is top Wall of Steel.  The Cod, as always, is 
overall popularity leader.

JELLO KNUCKLES (42-4554) (102-92-0,233) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought RIRORNI COOK (107-24) 
(0-0-0,181).  JELLO KNUCKLES savagely defeated RIRORNI COOK in a crowd pleasing 4 
minute match.  Mr. Knuckles is our premier TP and this turn's favorite.

CHATROOMMATE (18-10034) (47-36-0,187) of CENTER FOR OLDS fought BURM WOLFSNARL (81-
113) (46-32-0,180) of BIG LAKE OUTCASTS.  CHATROOMMATE vanquished BURM WOLFSNARL in an 
exciting 2 minute bloody mismatched fight.  Chatroommate is top Parry-Lunge.

HARD KNOCKS (42-4555) (38-38-0,171) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought THE BLACKSMITH (107-22) 
(0-0-0,181).  HARD KNOCKS was overcome by THE BLACKSMITH in an action packed 1 minute 
fight.  Mr. Knocks is our reigning Aimed Blow.

TANTRUM YOGA (42-4563) (41-36-2,174) of COLOR ME SUAVE fought CPT. BUZZY (20-65) (44-
44-0,164) of I'M NOT EGGBERT.  TANTRUM YOGA vanquished CPT. BUZZY in a 1 minute uneven 
duel.  No stylemasters here.

INIGO MONTOYA (33-8054) (40-34-2,180) of BIG LAKE BANDITS fought MR RIGHT HANDED (72-
6876) (27-34-1,140) of BASH BROS TIRES.  INIGO MONTOYA vanquished MR RIGHT HANDED in a 
1 minute uneven fight.  Mr. Montoya is top Slasher and Mr. Handed is top Parry-Strike.  
Mr. Right-Handed won a big, wet raspberry from the spectators.  It was probably 
because of the way he lost.  Looked like he didn't want to fight today at all.  
Montoya waved a blade at him and he surrendered.

DIRTY DIAPERS (38-5071) (50-50-2,100) of BASH BROS CHILDREN fought RAYNER (20-182) 
(30-28-2,79) of DEADLINE.  DIRTY DIAPERS vanquished RAYNER in an exciting 1 minute 
gruesome one-sided fight.  Top Basher, top P-R.

I'M POWERLESS (59-2629) (37-71-0,44) of BASHAHOLICS ANON fought SPICE (7-6640) (24-23-
5,57) of LADIES OF QUALITY.  I'M POWERLESS was overpowered by SPICE in an exciting 1 
minute one-sided fight.  And this is our second fight with no stylemasters.

Well, you poozers aren't showing much life on the sands these days.  I guess if you 
show up to get hit with weapons that's something.  More than I would care to do, 
really.  So, I salute you for training to keep Alastari safe.

                        FIRST INAUGURAL ARVAT CONTEST SUPREME

Who can join?  Anyone with a team in Arvat as of 2/1/2018.

When does it start?  First turn due after 2/1/2018.

How long does it run? 13 turns.

How do I join?  Announce your manager name and team name in the Arvat newsletter prior 
to 2/1/2017 and state that you are entering the contest.  Prior to the contest 
actually starting you need to have 2 rollup certs sent to the Dark One care of RSI.

How do I win the contest? The team which has accrued the most points as of the end of 
the 13th turn is the winner.  The team which has the 2nd most points is declared the 
runner up.  And the team which has the 3rd most points is declared honorable 
contender.  Everyone else is a loser and should be ridiculed.

How do I score points?

1)  Every challenge you win vs. another team in the contest = 10 points, as long as 
    that challenge is to a warrior equal to or above yours in the rankings.  Except 
    for the Duelmaster who can challenge anyone he wants.

2)  You also earn bonus points for every challenge won.  For every point of 
    recognition your target is ranked above you, you earn one bonus point.  This is 
    for challenges only.

3)  If you are challenged by a warrior below you and defeat him, you will gain 5 
    points.

4)  Also every random matchup against a contest team that you win will earn you 5 
    points -- up or down.

5)  You CAN downchallenge, however you get no points for doing so, and if you are 
    beaten, your opponent will earn 10 points and the right to ridicule you in the 
    newsletter.

6)  Bloodfeud challenges count just like regular challenges during the contest.

7)  In addition there are the following bonus points that are awarded each turn:

    A)  Duelmaster earns 10 points

    B)  Graduating a warrior earns 10 points

    C)  Recognition Leader (Chartered or Unchartered) earns 5 points (if the 
        Duelmaster is the recognition leader as well, then only the DM points apply)

    D)  Popularity Leader earns 5 points

    E)  Turn's most popular earns 5 points

    F)  Top team on the move earns 5 points

    G)  Current Top team earns 10 points

    H)  Any warrior that earns a Tournament Champion in either the April Mail In or 
        July FTF tournament earns 20 points

    I)  Any warrior that earns a Tournament Victor in either of those tournaments 
        earns 10 points

    J)  Note that Top Chartered and Unchartered team awards do NOT earn points

What are the rules regarding other teams in the arena?  If you challenge any warriors 
not participating in the contest you LOSE 20 points, unless the challenged warrior is 
the Duelmaster.  If any manager has a 2nd (or 3rd) team in the arena they may NOT 
challenge any warrior of any team participating in the contest or they are 
DISQUALIFIED.

What do I win if I win this contest? 

1)  The winner wins all of the rollup certificates given as entry fee for the contest.  
    In addition, the winner gets to pick 3 of the prizes below.

2)  The runner up gets to pick 2 of the prizes below.

3)  The honorable contender gets to pick one of the prizes below.

In addition, all competitors in the contest who run all 13 turns and at least 62 total 
fights will earn 1 potion of +1 bonus, which must be used on a warrior who 
participated at least 1 fight in the contest.  

Also, the team that scores the most points on any one turn of the contest (other than 
the winner, runner up or honorable contender) can pick one prize that was NOT selected 
by those three.

Prizes:

1)  Limited stat switch (You can swap any 2 stats you want on an Arvat replacement 
    rollup that you received within the next 6 month)

2)  Extra replacements (Next time you get a replacement (or whenever you want within 6 
    months) in Arvat you can ask RSI for 5 additional replacements and select the best 
    one for your team)

3)  Limited damage bump (You can pick one warrior on your Arvat team to move up one 
    damage class -- as long as he remains in-bounds for his ST/SZ stats)
