Chaos Dawns! Tournament Inspires Mob Revolt!
This just in from the planet's administrators; They relay to us that one of their teams of field operatives has brought in a worrying report. From analysis of the behaviour of some of the more intelligent species found on Calypso, it has been discovered that a growing resentment has formed within Mob ranks, a resentment against what has become for them a relentless annual slaughter; the WoF.
Included in the report is evidence that the Tribal Mobs had been planning a retaliation against the Tournament for some time. A widespread operation of applying a herbal accellerant to dozens of different predatory beasts had been in place for months. The report mentioned Mobs in cages and held in underground bunkers, hundreds upon hundreds of a size very rarely seen, but we cannot verify any of the findings as yet.
More worrying was the mention of the construction of a transmitter in Tribal Lands. Although hastily dismantled after a single day, the operatives fear it was being used to summom re-inforcements of some kind. Their fears were compounded when the signal was traced to Robot Ships fleeing to Akbal Cimi after the recent conflict. We can only hope the signal was not answered.
We also have reports of people being killed by something so small and quick it has yet to be identified, doubtless another part of the vengeful plan of the Tribal Mobs.
The Company have responded to this news by adding as yet unspecified Weaponry and Winners certificates to the existing prize of this years WoF Champions Jackets for each Main Team member. Runner-Up prizes of Weaponry and Attachments and Certificates will also be supplied.
From WoF HQ comes the announcement that mystery prizes will be given to Support Teams who are first to Global on both support team mobs and the bonus mob in selected matches in later stages. It is hoped with these further incentives we can overcome whatever dark end the Mobs have in store. The only translation of their final edict came out simply as "the age of panic".
Scoring will also be amended to include an extra variety boost for scoring each possible number of points (5, 6, 7, 8 ,9+10) as well as each species of mob, and the Support Variety Boost will be doubled from last year.
The last advice in the report was to be ready for anything. Anything at all.
We at WoF HQ ask you brave competitors to stand firm in these tumultuous times and remember what you fight for....
For Flag, For Fun, For Glory!

P.S. The first release of the Qualifier A Moblist for March 7/8 will be at the Launch Party on Feb 28th (approximately 21:00). It will be posted in the Forum later that night.
Yes, things just moved up a notch...
