Notes from the Isle

November 12th - November 18th

-Week 5 of 9-

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Thanks to an overwhelming amount of support, the otter pup names are now up for voting here! There’s so many cute and fitting names, it’s hard to choose! Whatever is picked, we know that they’ll enjoy a protected and comfortable life here on Twilight Isle!

This past week the city held Dueler Appreciate Week, and Twilight Isle just wants to extend a resounding thank you to all of our casters! We wouldn’t be here without you coming to visit, live on, train, and cast on Twilight Isle, so from the bottom of our hearts, Thank you!! We hope to keep providing a fun and informative environment for many years to come!

Note: Salvador Delahada won Leaf on the Wind on 09/17/2023 in the Fall All Ranks tournament. This awards the usage of Elemental Fury in regulation matches until the next All Ranks tournament.

AROUND THE CITY

As mentioned earlier, Dueler Appreciation Week was this past week and concluded last night with an Armsgiving celebration! Did you pop by the Red Dragon Inn for some of those delicious cocktails which were inspired by the sports put out by Governor Gatito? Or maybe you participated in the weapon donation and exchange which had numerous interesting offerings! If you haven’t gotten a chance to participate in the exchange, there’s still time. Be sure to stop by Lemnos Craftworks and bring food donations!

IFL is going strong and Conner and the Line wants to know how you’re betting this IFL season! Remember to stay up to date, do your research and get those bets in, there’s money to be made! After all, you need to have funds for your Icabod plushie collection and your Gren Blockman is number one pine scented pennant!

NEWS FROM OTHER VENUES:

In the Arena, fighters were out on Thursday night to enjoy the Twin Wins in the Arena, but it seems like folks are in their quiet focus times right now before issuing any more challenges. We’re confident that after one challenge is issued, another or two will follow as that’s always seemed to be the trend in the bloodsands!

In the Outback, Rachael’s efforts to become Terra Master is underway, challenging PathFinder’s Holder Droet who is also just as focused on getting an Opal defense under his belt. The challenge is set for next week, Monday November 27th! One way or another the results are sure to be groundbreaking! Are you Following the new rules? Diamond Rules that is! Diamond Salvador wants you to get out there and duel! Did you win one of the t-shirts for dueling in fists last week? Be sure to train in it in style! The Opal Excavation Week looked super successful! Thanks for running it Salvador and thanks to all who participated! Don’t forget to sign up for the All Ranks Tournament here! It takes place Saturday Night November 25! Slugfest rules so you know there will be lots of punching! Study up if you’re not familiar with the format here! Good luck everyone!

DEBUTS: No debuts this week.

ADVANCEMENTS: Mew advance to Mage!

THE RING OF KLYTUS: The holder for this cycle is VACANT! The ring grants an additional focus over the normally allotted amount, but is still limited to the maximum of 3 foci.

Cycle Ranks Through Week 5

Cycle rankings show how duelists perform over the course of the cycle, with the top performer earning the Ring of Klytus (provided they began the cycle below the rank of Mage). To balance percentage performance duelists are broken into 3 brackets based on number of duels fought, with top accolades achievable by only those in the upper tier. Duelists are ordered first by bracket, then by winning percentage, followed by the number of wins and lastly by low rank to high.
