== Musikhjälpen and SteelFM ==
In [https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musikhj%C3%A4lpen Sweden Music Aid (Musikhjälpen)] is held between December 9-15 in [[Västerås]] and of course we will find something on [https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stora_torget,_V%C3%A4ster%C3%A5s Stora Torget]. The theme of the Music Aid this year is [https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Musikhj%C3%A4lpen#Musikhj%C3%A4lpen_2019_%E2%80%93_%22Sex_%C3%A4r_inte_ett_vapen%22 ”Sex is not a weapon”], read more [https://sverigesradio.se/musikhjalpen here]. [[Turf Västmanland]] will ensure that there will be [[Medaljer#Crowdy-1|Crowdy]] takes (2 different attempts to get a [[Crowdy-144]]) as well as a digital collection box from "Turfarna" that everyone in [[Land: Sverige|Sweden]] can contribute to (more info about it will be posted on [https://www.facebook.com/groups/turfgame Turf's Facebook-page]). Perhaps will we see other private Turf initiatives get underway during the week. The turfers of Västerås think it would be fun if the zone on Stora Torget ([[Zon: Aseaströmmen|Aseaströmmen]]) changes owners as often as possible. Come on over to Västerås and help them!
It is not only Sweden's turfers that have the opportunity to take part in charities. This year again, the radio channel [https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steel_FM Steel-FM ] is organizing a collection in [[Region: Åland|Åland]]. This year's collection, which runs from December 2 until the New Year, ends with a long live broadcast the last three and a half days from a cage in the city square of [[Mariehamn]]. This year's money goes to the Food Bank in Åland. Support from the Food Bank is provided to families with children and people who have a temporary or long-term financial crisis and is a complement to society's other forms of support. Turfers have been engaged in this collection both in [[2017 ]] and [[2018 ]] and have been mentioned several times in the live broadcast. Here too there will be a Crowdy attempt, will it be a 144th this year?
== Turf Region Battle==A Turf [[Regionkamper|Region Battle]] is a very special kind of Turf Event. It takes place during one whole round of Turf and it is a battle between at least two different [[region]]s. The first Region battle was more of a inter-city battle between the turfers of [[Västerås]] where West was battling the East of the city. Later there has been several region vs region battles: [[Region: Västmanland|Västmanland]] vs [[Region: Stockholm|Stockholm]], Västmanland vs [[Region: Uppsala|Uppsala]], Stockholm vs [[Region: Skåne|Skåne]] vs [[Region: Åland|Åland]] and the [[Lagkamp 2017|six-region-battle]] of [[2017]].
I asked a member of each region's team to write about the battle from their perspective. The first report comes from [[Användare: Kingslayer|Kingslayer]] in Team [[Region: Skåne|Skåne]]:
”This year’s regional competition in Sweden between [[Skåne vs Västra Götaland 2019|Skåne and Västra Götaland]] introduced two very-much needed novelties: the 80% rule, which meant the result of each sub competition (Points, Takes and Unique) was calculated on the top 80% of the team in that sub competition, and the introduction of total amount of new unique zones as a sub competition. The first one meant that turfers did not have to feel they dragged down the team if they got sick or otherwise could not go all in during a specific week, the second one that turfers that normally don’t show up high in the result lists could excel as well. Possessing [[2500 Unique|Unique 2500 medal]] or higher was a clear disadvantage in the Unique sub competition ;)
The first week was won by VG two to one, the Points sub competition was won with only 94 points per participant, mainly because the turfers in Skåne were lazy getting out of their warm Sunday beds. The second week was won three-null by Skåne, a treat which was repeated by VG the third week. In the last week, Skåne started in full speed and was leading both the final week and the total competition with only three days left. On the last Thursday of October, several Malmö-turfers ran a hamster wheel collecting each over 500 takes. Maybe the whole team got all washed-up and run-down by this performance, because after that the activity in Skåne became very low while VG was raising all their sails and spinnakers. VG cruised up abreast and then ahead and won the whole competition in the last two days. Until next time we need to practice finishing in Skåne. (Or, maybe sailing?)
In order to raise the status of the region competitions as such, the [[Turf Skåne ]] [[Turfföreningar|association ]] decided to donate an impressive cup to the game for the winner to keep. The general idea is that the winner then sponsors a new cup for the next competition they are in. Hence, this first region cup goes to Västra Götaland – well done!
We have had lots of fun in Skåne, we have seen many places while collecting unique zones for the team and many of us have new or upgraded Turf [[Medaljer|medals]] in the medal collection. Turfers who never met before are now well known to each other, and many have accomplished achievements well over their normal turf round performance. We wish to thank VG for an even fight in a positive atmosphere. For example, Pumac did join TXL assisting while TXL was visiting [[Göteborg|Gothenburg]]. We have not heard of any unsportmanship behavior or mean comments in this specific competition. Finally, we also wish to thank [[Användare: Laynus|Laynus]] on [https://turfportalen.se turfportalen.se] for excellent competition support!
[[Användare: HappyF |HappyF]] from [[Göteborg|Gothenburg ]] has a few words to describe the region battle from the West coast's perspective:
”This round, the region battle against Skåne became an extra motivator for many of us in VG. It resulted in many wins in the groups in the series and many beat their personal record. It started a bit tentative on the part of VG, with a 2-1 victory with scarce margins the first week and a 0-3 loss the second week.
We took it a little quieter on Saturday night, but watched the Turf map in case Skåne would respond. But the response was lacking, so we started to celebrate the victory. But of course we kept our eyes open on Sunday until 9 o'clock when we received the official congratulations from Region Skåne who professed to be defeated.
We want to thank Turf Skåne for challenging us in the regional battle and fighting well. The battle gave us a lot of cohesion, not only among Gothenburg's turfers, but from the entire region of Västra Götaland. I think I can speak for many of us when I say that the region battle meant that we had extra energy and joy during a gray autumn month and that we look forward to new challenges, even from other regions.” Thank you Kingslayer and HappyF for contributing with your view of the region battle between Skåne and Västra Götaland!
