Mark your schedule for Jan2021 (the first turn after The FACE)
Probable:
Two Man Teams
12 Rounds (IT IS TURF WAR 12!)
Rather simple scoring based on:
Winning
Full Warrior Participation
Turf Wars have long had prizes and certs.
Of course this will continue.
Final rules will be posted in the near future. (Sometime this summer.)
Plan now, so you don't get left out!

TURF WAR XII … TW12 (Rev 8-8-20)
(Start turn after FTF or Mailer JAN 2021)
Bring acclaim and glory to the North Fork (DM47)
TURF WARS is a team event and unlike all other events in D2 involves “certs”.
Anyone may participate; known alliances, new alliances,
thrown-together alliances, or temporary alliances created solely to
compete in the Turf War! To participate, each alliance or participant
must:
1. Announce a Captain and an assistant of the alliance in the North
Fork (DM 47) newsletter or on the RSI site.(Also designate an alliance
name.)
2. Determine and submit either 1 or 2 or 3 certificates per
participant. Amounts can be different per alliance participant. The
significance of the choice will be explained under scoring.
3. Each participating team must run in DM47 on one of the three turns
prior to the start of TW12 so that the team shows in the last
Newsletter prior to the 1st TW12 turn.
At the end of the game, Captains are responsible for distributing any
winning certificates to the team participants.
No alliance scores can be tabulated until the chosen amount of RSI
Gift Certificates are received, the teams are listed in the
newsletter, and participant indication and captain confirmation are
posted in the North Fork newsletter.
All entry certs should be sent to Oz or The Consortium via RSI.
Only one (1) team per player/manager may compete in the Turf Wars, and
only one team per player/manager may compete in North Fork DM47 during
the Turf War. No arena multiple teams or aliases will be allowed.
Violations will result in immediate manager disqualification
(including team point adjustments) from the Turf War (so be sure to
take any multiple teams OFF of Team Maintenance and be certain not to
run any other team warriors). NOTE: Since alliances require two teams,
this would mean the remaining alliance member cannot score in the TW.
Any Turf War team must show/be posted/listed in the DM47 Newsletter
just prior to their actual scoring/participation. (E.g. New teams,
transfers, current teams must show up in the newsletter prior to the
beginning of participation, allowing opponent knowledge and
challenging/avoiding.) Manager/teams may not participate/score in the
Turf War the same turn they are first posted in the newsletter. (So
get your team in the newsletter early.)Teams do not have to run that
turn prior to TW12-T1, but will have had to run shortly before to
allow their warriors to be visible in the newsletter just prior to
TW12-T1.
Scoring will NOT be retroactive for teams/alliances that do not
properly declare or get captain confirmation 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 score will not begin until Turn 3. All conditions
must be met before scoring will begin--declaration, confirmation, NL
listing, and Gift Certificate received.
No declarations or confirmations will be accepted after Turn 2 of the Turf War.
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. (Note: the intent is to have a very thorough set of rules so
that few decisions, if any, are required from the moderators.)
No warrior may be substituted without the proper use of the DA or
arena death or death in a tournament or graduation. There must be a
maximum of five only on a team at any point and time. (The penalty for
such substitution is -25 points.)
SCORING will be as follows:
Only three things affect scoring. Number of initial certs submitted,
wins, fighting all five warriors, and the round modifier. (Later
rounds have higher modifiers.)
NUMBER OF CERTS SUBMITTED
1. Alliances will start the competition with the amount of points
based on the amount of certs submitted.
Two certs (1 each, the minimum required) = 0 points.
Three certs total = 3 points for the alliance
four certs total = 6 points for the alliance
five certs total = 10 for the alliance
six certs (the max) total = 15 for the alliances
2. After the sixth and after the eleventh round those same amount of
turn starting points are awarded to each alliance.
3. Hence, alliances may earn up to 45 points through the event via
certs. (Note: cert points are not impacted by the Round Modifier.)
NUMBER OF WINS
1. Each teammate win per round is worth 3 base points. (e.g. 1 win = 3
points, 5 wins = 15 points)
FIGHT ALL FIVE WARRIORS
1. Each turn there is a +3 base point bonus for each teammate fighting
all five warriors
2. Each turn there is a -3 base point penalty for each teammate not
fighting all five warriors.
ROUND MODIFIER
1. The first 6 rounds of TW12 are scored at 1x base points. (Base
points includes win scoring, and any all-5 bonus/penalty, but not any
cert scoring)
2. The 7th through 11th rounds are scored at 2x base points.
3. For the final and 12th round, base point scoring is at x3.
Special Considerations:
1. There will be NO alliance or team changes once the contest has
begun. If you begin the Turf War with Alliance X, you must end the
Turf War with Alliance X. If you begin the Turf War with Team X, you
must end the Turf War with Team X.
2. Each alliance is comprised of two and only two managers.
3. The Dark Arena may be used without penalty. (Limit twice per warrior.)
4, If at any time, the Moderators determine that any non-TW team in
the arena is aiding and/or abetting any TW alliance or team, the
affected points won by the gifted team/alliance will be disallowed and
the aiding non-TW team will be asked to desist from play in the arena
until after the Turf War concludes.
Prizes:
It is the responsibility of the Captain of the winning alliance to
distribute Gift Certificates to his alliance. Moderators will mail
them shortly after the final round. Moderators will submit a list of
each manager winner to RSI at the completion of the contest for the
RSI awarded prizes, to then be claimed by the manager from RSI
Customer Service within 6 months.
PRIZES
Certs
Winning alliance gets 70% of the pooled certs. Second place alliance
gets 20%, and third place gets 10%.
RSI awards: (all must be applied to DM47 warriors, cannot create
out-of-bounds warrior, and one max prize applied to any warrior – all
within 6 months)(one max prize means that if you win two prizes they
cannot be applied to the same warrior.)
1. Winning alliance captain may choose three (each manager/team
receives same prize as chosen by captain):
* Limited Damage Bump (bump one level damage) (warrior must have
fought in the TW)

must have fought in the TW)
* Choice Replacement (Receive 5 replacements, choose 1, delete 4)
* Replacement stat swap (Replace/flip any 2 stats on one new
replacement)(may not use in combination with Choice Replacement.)

2. 2nd place alliance captain may choose two (each manager/team
receives same prize as chosen by captain)
*Favorite weapon knowledge (warrior must have fought in the TW)
*Favorite rhythm knowledge (warrior must have participated in TW)
*Free stat raise of choice except size (may not create out-of-bounds warrior)
3. 3rd place alliance captain may choose one (each manager/team
receives same prize as chosen by captain)
*Favorite weapon knowledge (warrior must have fought in the TW)
*Favorite rhythm knowledge (warrior must have participated in TW)
*Free stat raise of choice except size (may not create out-of-bounds warrior)
Participation Award

These RSI awards will be listed by the Moderators within two
weeks of round twelve for individual claiming from RSI within 4 turns
of the end of TWXII. The certs will be mailed to the winning alliance
by the Moderators within two weeks of the end of the TW.
Moderators:
The Moderators for this event will be Oz, Master Darque, and Assur.
(The TWX Triumvirate) They will arbitrate all dealings during the
course of the contest. Their decisions will be final. All questions,
comments, and scoring disputes may be directed to Land of Oz or Darque
Forces or Bash Bros Park via diplo in DM 47. Managers with internet
access may send a private message to [The Consortium] or [Darque] or
[Assur] on the Duel2 Forums. Lastly, you may also email questions,
comments, and scoring disputes to rebelnerfherder@yahoo.com or
wfms101@aol.com or or mikey.alexander@hisstrengthandwork.com
