FEDDERGORIES
Thursday 5 July
by Cloudbase
Well, the 5th of July being the day after the Independence Day celebrations could only have one theme, so it was "The Day after the Night Before", or "The Aftermath of the Party".
I was joined on the Feddergories Channel by newlyweds Trilleth and DJMayhem, Butters, Fancy and Stiddleficks for the second half of the Game.
We kicked off round 1 by waking up with a hangover from hell and heading off to the bathroom, only to find it occupied by a straggler from the night before, her name started with an 'L' and all four players chipped in with different ones to storm into joint first place! Round 2 saw us seeking the cure for 'the hangover from hell', Trilleth suggested raw eggs, hot coffee, aspirin or drinking lots of water, whilst Butters offered Tylenol, Absolut, sleep, suicide (suicide is a bit radical I thought!!), DJMayhem thought alcohol, asprin, bloody mary, eggs, water, sleep and Fancy came in with aspirin, hair of the dog, drink water, eat, hot bath, ice, sex, steam. Once all the duplicates had been eradicated Trilleth had scored 2, Butters 3, DJMayhem 4 and Fancy, our new leader gained 6 points.
For round 3, our first Feddergory, we sought to head off to a bar in Sol for that hair of the dog - Fancy was off to Godots, whilst DJMayhem and Butters both headed to Chez Diesel, Fancy therefore the only one to gain a point. Round 4 saw us headed back home to start the clean up, we found a bowl containing a substance starting with 'C', Fancy had corn chips, Trilleth cat food, Butters cockroaches so they each scored a point. Round 5 saw us removing stains from a carpet: Trilleth puff pastry, DJMayhem plasma, Fancy punch and Butters puke. Lovely!
So the scores at the half way mark were Trilleth on 5 points, DJMayhem and Butters tied on 6 and Fancy in first with 11 points.
We were joined in round 6 by Stiddleficks as we continued the post party clean up, an item of clothing was found starting with the letter 'B'. Trilleth found bell-bottom jeans, Fancy a baseball cap, DJMayhem a boot, Butters a Bowler Hat, whilst Stiddleficks found a Bikini. In round 7 we identified the empty bottles that had been cleared up, and in Round 8 our second Feddergory, we tried to remember a company name starting with 'A' - only Fancy came up with a legitimate one, though Butters tried hard to convince me that his submission will be the name of his company when he IPOs. Round 9 saw us identify the name of the individual still sleeping in the dog kennel and as a treat round 10 was yet another Feddergory where we identified FED players starting with a 'B'. Butters bravely submitted his own name and everyone scored in this round.
So into the final round we went, a bonus one at that, as we tried to identify the flowers making up a bouquet that had been received as thanks for hosting such a wild party. A lot of answers and quite a few matches saw Butters getting matched out this round, Stiddleficks and DJMayhem both getting 2, Fancy 4 points, but Trilleth showed off her botanical knowledge by grabbing 6 points as she challenged for the lead.
All the points were totted up and the scoreboard looked like this at the end of the game: Stiddleficks (who had only joined halfway) scored 6 points, Butters 11, DJMayhem 13, Trilleth in second place with 16 points and the winner with 22 points, Fancy.
Fancy being a staff member watched on as Trilleth was awarded tonight's Slithy Tove.
If you would like to be awarded one yourself, join me next Thursday night on the Feddergories Channel at 10.00pm eastern and you can battle it out with others seeking the same.
