                      1996 All-Alastari Manager's Choice Awards

     This turn you should all be receiving your ballots for the Third Annual Manager's 
Choice Awards.  Please complete them and get them back to me (the Dark One, c/o 
Satan's Kingdom ADM 102; Primus or Angels of Pain ADM 108; Gateway) as soon as 
possible.  I will tally all votes on March 1, 1996, so you have that long to get them 
back.  Also, please, note a team of origin or manager name on your ballet to help 
prevent ballot stuffing.
     As you examine your ballot, you will note that there is a new section: the HALL 
OF FAME.  This is in tribute to the old Hall of Fame which was a prime attraction of 
the surveys of old and as a feature to help satisfy those of you who have been seeking 
an official one for a while.  While there is no official honor, I hope it will be a 
source of pride for those who have been inducted as well as an item of great interest 
to the general public.  This is how it works: Choose 5 warriors you seem worthy of the 
honor of induction, in order.  These votes will receive points: 10 for a #1 vote, 8 
for a #2 vote, 6 for a #3 vote, 4 for #4 and 2 for #5.  Warriors also get two "bonus" 
points for each ballot they appear on.  A #4 vote really is worth 6 pts.  The "bonus" 
points are only going to be added this year, since I'm sure everyone has a number of 
"greats" in mind who deserve to be in the Hall.  Each warrior who averages 6 points or 
more will be inducted into the Hall of Fame.  You need not fill all five slots.  Both 
past masters and current greats are eligible.
     Also, as always, please vote seriously for the awards and the Hall of Fame.  It 
hinders everyone else's fun for a few to cast a bunch of joke votes (i.e., no votes 
for any 0-20 warriors in regular DM!).
     Finally, if you wish, add a description of what you and your warriors will wear 
to the banquet, what alliance you belong to or anything else which might help me write 
an awards article which will amuse everyone.  Let's make this the best ceremony yet!

=====================================>>>>>*<<<<<======================================

     To the bold: The week began on a pleasing note, as Teetotaler and Trebonius 
arrived to augment our numbers.  The confidence of the men was greatly boosted, 
knowing the such a mighty warrior as Teetotaler would be at their sides when battle 
drew near.  While Trebonius decided only to take up the task of being our 
quartermaster and supply officer--the beasts of the gate are not for him--he, too, 
helped to hearten our ranks.
     We immediately organized a patrol sequence, hoping to prevent any surprise 
attacks by the enemy, and continued to solidify our defensesw.  Before long, our 
fortress will be complete and we will be able to take up residence there full time.  
It should prove to be a fairly safe refuge from the Chaos Hordes, particularly withthe 
cloaking field spell "borrowed" from the official representatives of Lady Greywand.
     About mid-week--or so we judged; time is a strange thing here in the Gate--we 
spotted a group of warriors from the settlement on their way to face the beast.  I 
healed them and told them what we had learned, and of our plan to begin picking off 
enemy troops in the area, rather than clumsily assaulting their Temple, but they 
elected to try their own hand.  Billy later reported that they had suffered some 
grevious losses and were fleeing before an enemy offensive.  I had Louis retrieve what 
bodied he could fine, then I called the men together to work on our plan of attack.  
We divided into two attack groups, the first which included me, Billy and Shawn.  
Teetotaler, Louis, and Jeremy were to be held in reserve, a rear-guard, in case we bit 
off more than we could chew.
     Having discovered that the Chaos beasts' Temple was but an outpost of their 
greater empire, we guessed that there had to be a system of courtiers between the 
Temple and their homeland.  Louis pointed out that intercepting their intelligence 
could be of the greatest use, so we decided to set up an ambush in the jungle.
     Lurking beneath a bed of ferns, we lay, hiding from the eyes of the dragons they 
use for scouts.  Before too long, a party of Jaguar Warriors, some fifty strong, slid 
into view, moving like shadows.  Deeming them to be an advance guard, we bided our 
time, waiting for bigger fish.  
     The the courier appeared--a demon so foul we nearly fled in spite of ourselves.  
It rode upon a huge phase lizard and was flanked by Jaguar Priests and warriors.  In 
its right fist it grasped a bone scroll-case, clearly the information we sought.
     Silently, we attacked.
     Three of the enemy were felled before they knew what was upon them, but then they 
set up a determined defense, shielding their master from attacks.  They knew, as did 
we, if we took too long, their advance guard would circle back and catch us unawares.
     Grimly we fought on, but then Billy fell, followed by Shawn.  I summoned up the 
reserves, but the enemy was too cunning.  Their defense was too strong.  As two more 
of our number fell, I signalled the retreat.  Teetotaler and I gathered up our 
comrades, save for Billy, who we could not find, and slipped back into the jungle.  
Though we slew a number of the beasts, we had failed.  We did not claim the enemy 
reports.
     Before long we returned to our camp and summoned Skek to restore our fellows.
     The next day, Trebonius found Billy in the jungle, his body defiled by the 
Jaguar-men.  It took some doing, but he, too, was healed.
     Though we did not achieve our original goal, we were successful in one respect.  
I doubt that the enemy anticipated us to have penetrated so far into their lands as to 
menace their officials.  Indeed, they must fear us!
     Next week we shall hinder them even further.

                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

Hail and Greetings warriors of Gateway!

     Once again Gate Commander Hangover entered the gate to emerge red and victorious 
over the butchered carcass of a Chaos creature.  I really am starting to think that 
Hangover is the ideal candidate for his post (whereas I used to think that he was more 
in the line of a reject from Ale Drinkers Anonymous).  How long can he go before he 
ends up on the wrong end of a barbed tail?!?  Incidently, anyone who doubts the 
potential lethality of Gate combat need only consider the fate of Falstaff, a fine 
warrior, who this turn returned from the Gate carrried on a shield (at least what was 
left of him)!
     Has anyone noticed that amongst guilds with a significant number of fights, Doc 
Legrand's Lab is basically dominating!  Or to use more common parlance, the good 
doctor is really kicking some butt?!  With 50 fights under his belt, he is averaging 
72% win/loss, a very respectable average I must say.  Does this prove once and for all 
that Legrand is King?  Or is it simply that the rest of the guilds have just not yet 
had a chance to really show their muscle?  I tell you what.  Even though none of the 
great managers were able to make the crossing to this land with us, I kind of miss 
them.  I think we should build memorial statues at the center of the Keep to 
commemorate the three managers that have shown their greatness here through the 
auspices of how well their warriors do in the training games.   Around turn 15 let the 
rankings point the way to who is deserving of such  grandiose elevation.
     There is a vicious rumor circulating in the keep that NODONN has such terrible 
body odor that even if there were women of ill repute in the city they would not share 
his bed for either love or money.  At least this is what the Mule was heard to say 
quite loudly at a recent gathering of the Gateway knitting society.  Apparently NODONN 
did not take too kindly to the remark bacause he posted a TV challenge against the 
Mule.   Unfortunately for him the challenge ended in disaster.  Remember Nodonn, a 
good cold shower might do much to cool your intemperate spirit!
     Well that's all for now.  I can hear the Keep watch approaching and somehow I 
would rather not be around when they get here.  Until next time please 
remember...jokes may be funny, but a good insult is sharper than any wit you'll find 
around here!

                               PERSONAL CORRESPONDENCE

Doc LeGrand -- Who have I beat lately?  Do you mean other than the Couatl? Well... 
everybody I've fought so far... was I supposed to do better?  I admit that I can't 
quite complete with the likes of Donatello, Gypsy Moth, and Teetotaler yet.  But I did 
TV in the last tournament despite only having a 16 SP, 17 DF and 94 skills. I would 
say that's not doing too bad considering... and geez I've only got 90 frickin' 
fights... give me a bit of time and I'll thrash all those losers. -- Furious Impaler, 
future Gate Commander

Zontani -- Neon brings up a good point!  How the hell would Hangover ever lose his 
post if he continued going to Defend the Gate every turn??? -- Scrag

Neon -- You are the disgusting gooey stuff that grows under the skin when you have an 
ingrown-toenail. -- Scrag

Hey how'd I get ranked so frickin' high?? I might actually get matched up in a fair 
fight! That would suck! -- Furious

Lungpuncture -- Challenge away! -- Furious

King Steele -- Well the Wardens are 24-6 so far in Gateway... how are you doing your 
Royal Highness? <snicker> Well don't worry about it... 24-9 still sounds pretty good. 
We can carry you... -- Scrag

Dealer -- Bringing the Mechanic would be the most stupid move you have ever made... it 
just makes no sense at all... seriously.  Like what are you saying... he certainly 
wouldn't take many beats in Primus right now! -- Scrag

Eve -- 4 fights... 9 skills (4-3-0-2)... 47 to go. -- Furious

Thanatos -- Wow, what a fight!  What, don't you believe in backup weapons? -- 
Char$(3008)

Anyone else think it might be a better idea to use, oh, I don't know.... gunpowder or 
ranged weapons against these monsters?  Reach out and touch someone, I always say.  
Whaddya say, Zonny?  A crossbow at 30 metres beats a dagger close-up, eh? -- 
Char$(3008), rabblerousing

Billy -- Yes, it's what we're here for, but why do it in such an ineffective fashion? 
-- Char$(3008)

Neon -- Apparently, you are fighting the wrong opponents, as am I.  I have been 
learning slowly with everyone the last two turns.  But even though my warriors have 
fewer fights I think they have more development the others at the level my guys are 
currently at.  If Psycho, Furious, and Lungs were Captains of the Gate we would be 
learning better.  Also, not the change the subject, but I think this arena is just a 
way of putting off a greater problem.  It is real apparent that in order to win in the 
gate you have to be a 12th rounder or above, and I'm willing to bet Hangover, Donnie, 
Teetotaler, Vengeance, and the rest ain't gonna lose much in the gate. -- The Dealer

Doc LeGrand -- You know, I should have just brought The Mechanic, fought in the gate 
every turn, and then I could be ranked above you, too. -- The Dealer

Hey!  Not a bad turn.  5-0-0.  But it was the last fight I got to before Goldilocks 
made it past the first minute.  I thought this place was gonna be tough. -- The Dealer

Guardian -- Wanna have our own little race to 100? -- The Dealer

Ragamoffyn -- Stay away from me!  You don't teach very well! -- Pretty Maid

Master of Anime -- Well, Pretty Maid has fought two fights and went for skills.  She's 
also averaging 2.5 a fight and only has a 17 wit.  She had 54 more skills to go! -- 
The Lunatic

Neon -- Like I told M.A., Pretty Maid has a 17 wit and learned 5 skills on her second 
fight and none on her 3rd.  She was training stats on her first.  Good enough? -- The 
Lunatic

Doc LeGrand -- Just a couple of questions.  What did you really expect and what would 
you do to fix it?  I think this thing will get ironed out in time.  Should the Gate 
Beasts all have 6 Archmasters? -- The Lunatic
P.S.  Not that I don't agree with ya!

Mannequin -- Hey, girly man!  When you gonna send that "blow up thing" to the gate?  
Or was dying once enough for him?! :) -- The Lunatic

Pretty Maid -- So, my dear, we finally meet.  I must say, you look as lovely on your 
back as I was told you would. -- Ragamoffyn

Eusebio -- Hey, at least you got the skills. -- Doll

Pregrine Falcon -- You want a piece of me?  Okay, bad boy, here we go again! -- Doll

Doc LeGrand -- I can't argue with you on the quality (or lack of) of the dead, 
although I noticed Reggie Jackson fared none too well.  It seems as though the Jaguar 
Priests and Warriors are faring quite well versus the majority of the field, posting 
an 18-8 record to date.  Teetotaler, Hangover, Gypsy Moth, Vengeance, etc., have 
posted the 8 victories.  Reggie and the rest of the field have come out on the short 
end.  Perhaps there are more surprises in store for us, though I doubt they'll prove 
to be more than brief curiosities. -- Mannequin

Neon -- For what it's worth, I think the learning rate is akin to a 21 WT warrior 
trying to max out.  My guys are averaging 2 or less skills a fight so far and both 
have a 25 wit. -- Mannequin

Vengeance -- I'd just be happy if the big mouths who keep saying how "easy" it is in 
the Gate would actually dare to come out and see for themselves, actually. ;)  Thanks, 
Captain. -- Billy

Noelle -- Thank you for the skills and for the challenge, but in truth, I wasn't 
supposed to be in the Keep. -- Louis

How proud are you of your alliance?  There will be a contest pitting the various 
alliances against each other for ten gruelling turns.  At the end of ten turns the 
win/loss percentages will be compared and the winner chosen.  There is no prize, just 
prestige.  The contest will be held in Mordant (DM 1) from turn 281 (due March 3, 
1996) and will run through turn 290.  To participate, declare your team and 
affiliation in Mordant's personal ads by turn 281.  Who will win?  Dark Circle?  
GAPPDA?  Homeland Alliance?  Ivory League?  The Black Regime?  There are many, many 
more.  You are ALL invited.  Only the weak of heart will miss this opportunity to 
prove your alliance's superiority. -- Lord Xiang, mgr Windstorm, DM 1, Sacred Lord of 
the Black Regime

     All -- PLEASE remember to WRITE THE ARENA NUMBER on your diplos (as well as your 
     personals).  We cannot deliver diplos that are not addressed correctly: Name of 
     team and arena number.  Thank you. -- the Commission

 
All -- I just recently moved back to Missouri.  If there is anyone around the area of 
St. Louis please feel free to call or diplo me.  My name is Sam Boyer.  We can discuss 
secrets, plans, or just chit-chat about different strategies.  Boyers Warriors (52),

                                  LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS

Within the Gateway:
    
HANGOVER (29-638) (134-61-5,1) of ABOUNDING AGONY II entered into the jungles on the 
far side of the Gateway entrance, once more hurling himself at the enemy without care 
for his own skin.  There he met the dread creature, XOTHICAN.  Four minutes did our 
stalwart Captain of the Gate do battle--four minutes did he allow the beast's hot 
breath to wear on him.  But when at length the battle was done, Hangover stood 
victorious over the inert body of the dread creature.
     
FALSTAFF (37-899) (113-63-2,8) of ZIG ZAG, great warrior of the Keep, walked into the 
Gateway in search of the denizens of Chaos.  After several days, he did encounter the 
creature of shadows, THE YTHRR.  To the horror of all who witnessed, this fell beast 
woven of jungle shadows and fear killed Falstaff in a two-minute fight.  No one dared 
draw too close to rescue the body, which was recovered, days later, by Skek.
     
TEETOTALER (38-326) (149-60-3,7) of MISCELLANEOUS II, leading a phalanx of warriors
from the Keep into the Gateway, found himself face-to-muzzle with a JAGUAR WARRIOR, 
and the battle was on.  Three minutes did he fend off the beast's fangs and 
claws, and in the end of three minutes, stove off the beast's head with one blow.
     
OPUS (1-1526) (116-69-1,5) of ZIG ZAG followed close after his fellows but soon found 
himself alone in the jungle.  Cautiously, he made his way in the direction he had been
told, working towards the Temple Xuquilatl.  Two days into his trek he met a JAGUAR 
WARRIOR and prepared to fight.  He found himself crowing with victory only a minute 
later, as the beast fell, unprepared for the onslaught.
     
QUICKSILVER (14-857) (116-82-2,4) of NOMADS broke away from his companions and made

facing T'ZEEXIQAL, who opened his maw and dove upon the warrior.  SIR LANCELOT threw
up his weapon and gave up a fierce fight, but after five minutes, lay dead at the 
feet of the creature.

are treacherous, and none more so than AXIQUENDO, who crept up on the Lord Protector
and spirited him away in a cloak of shadow.  Bravely did BILLY THE KID do battle for

and recovered by his companions.

three minutes, JEREMY was put to death at the claws and fangs of the creature.  His 
body was recovered by his companions.

gave vent to his fury and in three minutes had viciously slain the beast.
     
GAMMENON (23-1670) (75-64-3,64) of CELESTIALS found the wide yellow river and saw the 
footprints of the Lord Protector who had walked there before.  Hoping to catch up 
with his companion, he followed the steps as they followed the river, but soon became 
aware of the sound of splashing.  Readying himself, he was in a defensive crouch when 
the WATER DRAGON came hurling out the river at him.  Though he fought hard, the beast 
of the elements was too much, and killed GAMMENON after two minutes.  His body has
not been found.
