Session 7: Goblin Hunting Season
The Hunt Begins
The goblin mission turned into a full competitive event. Two teams — The Royal Fuck Ups and AirBnB — descended on the goblin territory with a scoring system:
| Target | Points |
|---|---|
| Goblin | 1 pt |
| Hobgoblin | 2 pts |
| The Bugbear (Bazza) | 5 pts |
| Assist | 0.5 pts |
| Wolf | −1 pt |
Wolves, it should be noted, cost points. They were explicitly not the target. This did not stop everyone.
The Scoreboard
| Player | Goblins | Hobgoblins | Assists | Wolves | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gauthak | 4 | 3 | — | — | 10 |
| Bazza | 2 | — | — | — | 7 (inc. Bugbear) |
| Barry | 4 | 1 | — | — | 5 |
| Dorian | 5 | 1 | — | 1 | 2 |
| Reggie | 4 | — | 1 (−0.5 for violently stabbing a cute dog) | — | 2 |
| Twiggy | 1 | 1 | 3 | — | 2 |
| Eimador | 3 | — | — | — | 2 |
| Wolf | — | — | 1 | — | 0.5 |
Reggie earned a special notation for "violently stabbing a cute lil dog to death" as an assist, which the scorekeepers felt warranted a penalty.
A wolf, somehow, earned half a point for an assist. No one questioned this.
Final Score
AirBnB: 12 — Royal Fuck Ups: 17
The Royal Fuck Ups took the victory, proving that enthusiasm and questionable ethics can overcome most obstacles.
