Local News July

sugarvalves [1963573] — Find out why Monarch and IBB nearly went to war, which stock's market cap has risen over 300%, and what the members of Natural Selection have been doing for the environment in our Local News roundup. Some news has happened. I cannot make it unhappen. Here, in no particular order, is that news. MONARCH BACK DOWN? In the last week of July, we received news that the newly-formed Monarch faction family was about to war against IBB and Aftermath. Aftermath is a 2.1m respect faction ranked 125th in the HoF, and while we have not seen anything to suggest they are allied to IBB, they do appear on more than friendly terms. The following faction message from Aftermath's leader Ozarks proves that his side are happy to work with IBB, and that they were readying themselves this week for an imminent attack. IBB, who occupies 17 territories in Sector 5 on the east side of the City, beat Natural Selection II in a closely fought termed war over at FBG and EBG in mid-...

Salvia wins Summer URT

sugarvalves [1963573] — 17th ranked driver pulls off major shock to win Torn's biggest racing competition. Semi-finals marred by Federal Jailings. Tournament rankings and Soybean award winner annouced. Salvia won the 2021 Summer Ultimate Racing tournament last weekend after a nail-biting finalé at Stone Park. The URT's 17th-ranked driver was a last-minute addition to the final after one racer was disqualified in dramatic style, but Salvia proved she deserved to be there on merit with a determined performance that saw her crowned the Ultimate Racing Tournament Champion. "Thank you and thanks to everyone for their kind words. There are many racers that, honestly, should have placed before me. To them, I give humble acknowledgement." - URT 2021 Summer Champion, Salvia The Knockouts Begin! Salvia qualified from Group A in third behind fellow finalists Bee-jesus and Storm1968. She then followed this up with a third-place finish in Quarter-final 3 at Two Islands, with 7t...

Mr and Ms Torn Crowned

sugarvalves [1963573] — QuietSilence and _Krysis_ have won the Mr and Ms Torn crowns for 2021, but what were their entries about, what are their goals, and why is Nova so fibrous? Find out as we interview Mr & Ms Torn 2021! The great unwashed have made their decision, with _Krysis_ and QuietSilence having been voted as Mr and Ms Torn 2021 . There were many excellent and creative entries sent into this year's competition, but in the end, it seems a combination of medical care and elderly abuse was what the public truly wanted. Pictured: Ms Torn (left, sitting gracefully) and Mr Torn (right, battering a friend).

Rare Animals Spotted in SA

sugarvalves [1963573] — Highly endangered species set to be released outside Joburg ahead of World Tiger Day. Six-seven figure sums paid for their corpses. Hunting experience boost in effect for 48 hours of the event. The Torn City Times has been informed that several endangered species have been imported to South Africa in recent days, with rumours suggesting that the presence of these animals is linked to next week's World Tiger Day event. What an Absolute Hunt! World Tiger Day runs from noon on the 28th to noon on the 30th and sees all hunters able to boost their experience by a factor of five while taking part in bloodsports. Hunting in South Africa is limited to players level 15 or over, but its energy cost versus the benefits gained means that not everyone sees the slaughter of wild animals as a good use of their time. Beginner hunters can earn between $250 - $500 on every individual hunt depending on which animal they bag, with this increasing to $1,000 - $3,000 for stan...

The war for pride, honour and 25b

Rum4nyby [1567187] — Find out how one man sparked a multi-billion-dollar betting ring ahead of one of the fiercest and closest faction wars to date. Standard Torn knowledge dictates that wars begin and end in the forums, and the recent fight between Itsi Bitsi Bikini and Natural Selection 2 is no exception. The history between the two factions and a hunger for victory promised that this would be one of the bloodiest wars this year, and the pre-fight banter did not disappoint. Whatever your taste in humour, there is most likely a joke tailored for you that can be found in the discussion thread. But this war had even more spice to it. Another layer of excitement. Another factor in play, which brought with it anticipation, motivation, and the promise of great riches. The source of this extra element was Rum4nyby, who also happens to be me, for this reporter had the distinct honour of being the creator of the largest betting ring in Torn ever seen for a single war in Torn. Here's ho...
