                            RAMBLINGS FROM WITHIN THE KEEP

     Yer goody-two-shoes Myrtle ain't here today, so you gotta listen to me, Snide 
Clemens.  I have got better things to be doing than talking to you meatheads, so yer 
not gettin' much outta me.
     MAIMED went out hunting and bagged a quezitalla.  What the heck is a quezitalla?  
A sneeze wrapped in a tortilla?  I hope you brought the head back for Myrtle.  Serve 
the wench right for sticking me with this report.
     Two other su--warriors went out after monsters.  FURIOUS IMPALER poked holes in 
an aikaharr and FERNDOK got a shadowed demon.  I'm sure that's very impressive, but 
I'd be more impressed if I knew what the bloody things were.  They might be breeds of 
rabbit, after all.
     A little dissention in the ranks, which I like to see, even if She doesn't.  
MANDRAKE was offed by KAHANAMOKU.  What's with the godawful names?  I'm rootin' for 
names I can pronounce!
     HELPLESS ANIMALS run for the hills when SUPERIOR FORCES come into view.  Heh, 
guess that's all you can do when yer helpless, innit?
     Unknown should have his pen taken away from him; he's a bleedin' idiot.  I think 
he was trying to say UMBRA was the most challenged warrior but he might just have 
been scratching his...ear and written stuff accidentally.  Probably make more sense 
that way.  Going under the "most challenged" assumption, DARIUS skinned that cat but 
good.
     I ain't got time for more.  If yer lucky, Myrtle will be back next time.  If yer 
not, well, you know.
     Snide Clemens

Doc Steele -- 4-7 overall, 3-0 bashers.  Sorry for missing the fight, but it wasn't 
my fault.  I went out exploring and got lost and completely missed the fights.  
Luckily, my exploration was eventless. -- Mrs. Butterworth

Doc Steele -- Are you sure you want to continue this?  Your two bashers now hold the 
bottom two spots in Gateway and I certainly don't see them contributing in any 
positive way to your win/loss percentage.  But hey, we like the wins!  Nice try, btw.  
I liked that strategy and liked even better how I won. -- Lord Lightspeed

T'sain -- I don't remember much of those days in Talcama.  Too many parties in 
Darkholm, you know.... -- Tom Thumb

28 September 2001
     Maccabaeus The Hammer [known to his friends and friendly foes as Hammer] invites 
one and all to send a team to Niytyole Island [DM 33] to compete in the upcoming 
Hammer 2002 contest which begins with Turn 404 [Duedate: November 7th, 2001] and 
concludes with Turn 433 [Duedate: December 18th, 2002] for 30 rounds of DM 
mayhem!!!!!!!
     Hammer has decided after much deliberation and some friendly consultation with 
Zalgor Prigg that the Hammer 2002 will be open to every active team in DM 33; thereby 
waiving the usual registration procedure and thus eliminating the usual "gift" that 
was sent to participants [such as The Hammer 400 Program Guide] for their enthusiasm 
of being registered in one of the famous Hammer contests.  However, there were 
usually late comers who also expressed interest in the various Hammer contests, but 
they were historically excluded due to the time limit set for participating in the 
contests.
     By opening The Hammer 2002 to the entire Niytyole Island active stables, this 
would make things more interesting over the next year.  Especially if Drake of 
Drake's Petting Zoo continues to write his famous Niytyole Island Ten Turns in Review 
which ranks a variety of the major and minor achievements of DM 33 teams and 
warriors.  Throw into the mix that every active team in the Fiercest and Best Free 
Blades Arena in Alastari will help to determine the outcome of this contest [while 
qualifying for award recognition] and one can readily imagine the potential for 
interesting team spotlights and personal ads that are bound to proliferate throughout 
the course of the contest [which translates into more bang for your buck!!!!!]
     So what are the 15 categories of competition for the Hammer 2002 that would draw 
one's interest to compete?
     By popular demand, the Hammer 2002 is featuring another FID race [First Initiate 
Duelmaster] from among the warriors listed in the ranks of the Initiates on Turn 404+ 
in the DM 33 newsletter.  The Greek Guy of Lurocians II will be going for his 3rd 
straight award.
     Hammer is also pleased to announce another Highest Ranked Fighting Styles 
competition from among the 10 Fighting Styles available.
     Once again, a warrior's name and fighting style must be declared in the personal 
ads either on or before the first turn he/she/it competes for the first time in a 
Basic Arena battle.***
     For this contest, the Highest Ranked Fighting Style will win its category by 
either becoming the first Duelmaster of its style, the first Graduate of its style or 
be ranked the Highest in Recognition for its style in the DM 33 Turn 433 newsletter 
in December, 2002.
     ***Remember, These Warriors must not have fought in a Basic Arena prior to 
entering DM 33, but are allowed to have Tourney experience.
     Team With The Most Wins will also be determined during The Hammer 2002 as will 
the Team With The Most Kills.
     The Greek Guy of Lurocians II will be looking to break his Hammer 400 record of 
75 wins while Sucyr of Harrowing Heroines claimed the H-400 category with 7 kills.  
Who out there thinks they can top these records?  Especially with an extra 5 rounds 
of H-2002 action.
     Also during The Hammer 2002, the DM 33 newsletter listing the five (5) Teams On 
The Move each cycle will provide the added excitement of determining The Top Point 
Gainer from the Team accumulating the most points from the Top 5 Teams On The Move 
listed each DM 33 cycle.
     Finally, Turn 433 will determine who will be crowned victor as the Warrior 
Ranked As Duelmaster On The Final Turn Of December 2002 from among all the active 
stables in Niytyole Island, better known as The Fiercest and Best Free Blades Arena 
in Alastari!!!!!!!!!
     Zalgor Prigg had volunteered to contact RSI regarding any possible special 
awards that could be offered during The Hammer 2002, but any news regarding his 
accomplishments have not been forthcoming as of this writing, although New Team 
Rollup Sheets are expected to be purchased by Hammer during the months ahead to be 
offered as awards for the 15 different categories of the Hammer 2002 contest.
     So while you are studying your New Team Rollups and trying to decide where to 
place that bizarre team after the October Rookie Tourney, how about you and your 
friends taking a walk on the wild side and sending your collection of misfits to the 
Fiercest and Best Free Blades Arena in Alastari to compete in the Hammer 2002 to show 
everyone why DM 33 is such an offbeat arena to compete in?
     Niytyole Note:  The preceding announcement was brought to you by Hammer, the 
former manager of his original team Milchamah (413) that graduated from Noblish 
Island after turn 23 and transferred to Niytyole Island.  Hammer will be introducing 
a new DM 33 team on turn 404 after the October Rookies Tourney featuring an all new 
theme for future team spotlights after his historic run of NIPS Niatoli Notebook.

     The Enchiridion is 115 pages of charts and graphs with all the explanations, 
which show you what every single line of a warrior overview is, what it does for your 
warrior, and how to be able to make a warrior knowing what it looks like before you 
ever get it back from RSI.  Along with the chart systems, there is a lot of other 
information about DM-theory and strategy that you would only be able to get with a 
lot of experience in the game.  The handbook goes into intricate detail, step-by-
step, with a complete analysis about each subject.
     I made the Enchiridion to help new managers know everything they may ever desire 
to know about this game, and most importantly to get them on par with the experienced 
managers of the game.  The handbook is VERY detailed, however I wrote it so that it 
would be easy to follow and understand.  $10 (US dollars) is what it costs me to 
produce and ship the handbook, so that's what it'll cost you.
     The handbook is a COMPLETE look on how to create any facet of a warrior 
overview: handedness, intelligence, wit-statements, activity, coordination, 
endurance, hit-points, encumbrance, quickness, damage, and a skill chart along with a 
detailed description of the Bagman 2 skill system.  There are also things which don't 
apply to the warrior overview such as:  tactics, most up to date weapons chart, 
warrior style favorites, Basic/ADM/& Dixie warrior designing, and MANY other things.  
This handbook will open up your mind to the intricacies of the game and make you a 
better manager because of it.
     Make checks, or money orders payable to me.  As for cash, I have received all 
orders of cash in the mail up to now.  There's just a risk of it not getting to me.  
You'll have to decide for yourself if its worth the risk.  If you'd like to ask me 
some questions about the handbook, or DM in general then feel free to contact me via 
mail or e-mail.

                                  The Godling Heresy

                                         Or
                    An Argument for Giving Every Warrior a Chance

     It came to me in a flash, but I'd like you to bear with me while I lay a little
groundwork in this article, because it's going to take just a little longer than a
flash to explain it.
     As I understand the term, a godling is a warrior who is expected to be superior
at all levels of play, but especially once he graduates and reaches the Isle (and
thus is safe from death).
     When you do a roll-up, you arrange the stats and choose the style, and from
these two factors, the computer calculates starting (base) skills.  The number
crunchers have done a LOT of research on this, and they can fairly well tell you what
the normal (mode) base skills for any warrior are, given his starting stats and his
style.  But sometimes, a random factor will kick in, and a warrior may be bonused
over the skills that would be expected and have more than expected, or, of course,
the reverse.  This you can't know until you get the overview and compare the
statements on it to one of the charts produced by a number cruncher.
     Note that this means that if you send the warrior directly to the Dark Arena at
the same time you send in the roll-up, you won't know about any possible bonuses
until it's too late.
     A warrior increases skills over his base during fighting by a) training skills
and/or b) training stats.  By training nothing but skills, you can learn twenty in
each of the six skill areas; then you're "maxed."  But you can also gain skills at
some points in the stat-training sequence, and if you train stats and gain skills
that way before you max skill trains, they will be counted against your twenty for
the skill in question.  So you still get twenty skills, what's the difference?  Ah,
but if you max the skills and THEN train stats, you get MORE than twenty!  This is
the argument behind all those admonitions not to train stats early in a warrior's
career.  The skills earned by training a stat to, say, 17 are calculated on exactly
the same chart as the skills earned by having a starting stat of 17.
     If two warriors, both of the same style, both entirely mode, start out as Abel:
7-8-8-17-17-12-17 and Baker: 17-17-8-10-11-12-9, by the time they have maxed skills
and trained all their stats up to 21, they will be exactly identical in skills!
Where's your godling then?  Abel may have been more exciting to run, he may have
taken off faster and had some rather spectacular wins, but he is equally likely to be
dead.  So what's the big deal with the trip-17?  Instant gratification, maybe, or
maybe just muddy thinking.
     But wait, there's more!
     Each warrior has a favorite weapon, a favorite rhythm, and sometimes a favorite
tactic, and THAT makes a lot of difference...but you don't find out (for sure) until
the warrior graduates.  Suppose you had two warriors with Abel's stats as given
above, both slashers, let's say, and one had scimitar, high/low favorites and the
other had hatchet moderate/low favorites.  The one with the scimitar is most likely
to do better than his twin.
     So that makes two things you can't possibly know when you send in your roll-up
sheet: bonuses and favorites.  Both of these are critical to the state of being a
godling, and my heretical opinion is that any reasonably good warrior should be given
a chance to demonstrate the presence or absence of bonuses and allow at least an
intelligent deduction as to favorites before being declared "worthless."  It seems to
me that the managers who engage in the wholesale use of the Dark Arena on unproven
roll-ups are missing a good bet.  If they're only interested in high-end play and
don't care about their win/loss record in Basic, why don't they give the half-way
decent roll-ups a chance?

     For a few examples of the things that might be hiding behind an untried set of
numbers, I'm going to give you the facts on some real warriors.  These are decent but
not extreme, ones I've graduated and have the numbers on.  All are slashers, so there
will be no style-based differences.

A:  16-10- 9-15-17- 7-10                G:  13-17- 9-17-10- 9- 9
B:   9- 8-13-17-17- 9-11                H:   9- 8-13-17-15-11-11
C:   9- 5-14-15-17-11-13                I:  10-12-12-15-13-13- 9
D:   9-12-13-17-17- 3-13                J:   9- 9-13-15-15-11-12
E:  17- 9- 7-11-17-13-10                K:   9-13-10-15- 9-15-13
F:  12-13-15-13- 9- 9-13

None are "godlings" in the sense of having outstanding numbers.  Many of them would
never have seen the light of day under other management.  If you could only run two
of these warriors, which would you pick?

     Here's the rest of the facts--
     A:  16-10-9-15-17-7-10, favorites are scimitar, very high/very low.  +1 init, +1
def, +4 dec.  Good potential.  A lot of skills waiting for an increase in DF.
     B:  9-8-13-17-17-9-11, favorites are broadsword, high/low.  +2 rip.  Good
potential.
     C:  9-5-14-15-17-11-13, favorites are hatchet, high/low.  +4 init, -4 rip, +1
dec.  Junk, because of the favorite weapon.
     D:  9-12-13-17-17-3-13, favorites are longsword, moderate/low.  +1 init.  Same
as C, junked by his favorites.
     E:  17-9-7-11-17-13-10, favorites are scimitar, moderate/moderate.  +2 def, +4
dec.  Rhythm and weapon are excellent, but he'd have been better with a bonus in
attack.  Still, there are a lot of skills just waiting for the stat raises in DF and
WT.
     F:  12-13-15-13-9-9-13, favorites are great axe, moderate/moderate.  +1 rip, +3
att, -2 def.  Mediocre, the penalty in defense offsetting the bonus in attack.
Raising stats will be hard, too.
     G:  13-17-9-17-10-9-9, favorites are great axe, very high/low.  +1 ini, +4 rip,
+2 att, +2 par, +2 def, +1 dec.  An interesting oddity (bonuses in ALL skills), but
basically mediocre, and the low WL will give trouble when it comes to raising stats.
     H:  9-8-13-17-15-11-11, favorites are broadsword, high/very low.  -1 rip, +1
par, +4 def.  Not bad at all.
     I:  10-12-12-15-13-13-9, favorites are battle axe, high/very low.  +2 dec.  Not
bad, but not great, either.
     J:  9-9-13-15-15-11-12, favorites are scimitar, moderate/very low.  -1 rip, +3
par, +3 dec.  Possible.
     K:  9-13-10-15-9-15-13, favorites are shortsword, very high/low, slash tactic.
+1 init, -4 rip, +2 att, +3 def, +3 dec.  Unfortunate weapon, but otherwise quite
possible.  Favorite or no, I'd give this one a scimitar to fight with.
     I forget off-hand which ones I'm actually running of these, if any, but just
looking at the list, I'd pick E and probably H.  But you see what I mean about not
being able to tell the warrior's potential from the initial roll-up sheet?  These
warriors weren't sorted by anything except style; they're simply the first eleven
slashers on my list of graduates.  None of them have "great" numbers.  None of the
DIED.  Not ONE of them is mode.  There's variation in favorite weapons and rhythms.
My recollection is that all of them did reasonably well in Basic.
     I'm not advocating running every rotten replacement that comes down the pike (I
do it, but that's a different story), but give those so-so roll-ups a chance to show
their stuff.  They might surprise you.
