LOST: BALLS: the updatening

Hey, everybody! We haven't forgotten this weekend's little crackplot, it just got a little sidetracked by RL. As such, we're going to start it up tomorrow morning; I'll ask Quinn if she's open to letting it go through Monday given the late start/holiday weekend.

The whammy: WC Fields' juggling balls. Three or so are going to roll through the door. If you pick one up, you are whammied. If it bounces off your shoe, you are not whammied. If it bounces off your bare foot... Rule of Funny says you probably are whammied. If one of the balls is packed into a static bag while you're whammied, the whammy is canceled. Of course, until such time as all three are collected you can always pretend it wasn't that ball.

If you pick it up, you get all of the mental effects of being blackout drunk without all that pesky drinking first. You have anywhere from two to five hours of consciousness (subject, again, to rule of funny), and then once you've slept it off the whammy is over, no hangover. While the whammy is over, the consequences of what you did in your Artifact-drunken state may not be...

Who can play: Anyone you want to have pick up a ball. Yes, this includes kid characters because hey, it's a ball, not a beer. For those of you with recovering alcoholics on your roster, whether you take on that particular flavor of Bad Idea Theatre is up to you (but canon did it, so you wouldn't be alone).

The cleanup: Joshua and Helena, and possibly Claud if she gets disentangled from her half of canon in time, will have gloves and static bags to round the damn things up and take them home.

The tinytag: Quinn has proposed BALLS as the tinytag, as you do. XD

Definitely read that as Balls: The Tightening.

Forgive me, I'm twelve. >_>

I will definitely chuck someone at this when I've done enough other stuff to allow it! Sounds like a great laugh. :D

And now I am struggling to figure out how you tighten balls. Do you use a crescent wrench or...?

You use a hex key, obviously.

(Side note: Haha, MINK SAID BALLS. Let me join you in being twelve.)

Yes, I fear Teja will simply be the safer choice. Because of what you said...
