Watch List
Season Arc · Grey Matter @ Creekside Park
2All-In league: Watch List stays with its holder — only its number moves with each week's standings.
Character Sheet
AI-written · FATE styleThe Watch List emerged from the Bureau's Pattern Recognition algorithm - when the system detects behavioral anomalies that exceed normal thresholds but don't yet warrant formal investigation, players get automatically transferred here for preliminary observation. This makes it a reactive, algorithmic designation rather than a manual one, adding to the paranoia of being flagged by invisible code.
The Watch List appears as a pulsating amber border around a player's digital file, with a small radar-sweep animation cycling continuously in the corner. It transfers automatically when the Bureau's Pattern Recognition algorithm detects behavioral anomalies that exceed normal thresholds. Scorecard submissions from Watch List holders carry a subtle static effect that Bureau archivists can detect. The longer a player remains on the Watch List, the more pronounced these manifestations become.
The Watch List serves as an early warning system that precedes formal Bureau investigation - being flagged doesn't guarantee trouble but signals heightened scrutiny is active, creating persistent paranoia about what actions triggered the surveillance and whether any subsequent behavior appears suspicious.
Season Story
narrated by Flippyadjusts headset The Bureau's algorithm flagged a deviation, and Pat Driscoll responded with a 68 that somehow gained four spots from a field averaging 54.8. A 614-rated round is no miracle, but when your personal average is exactly 68, you've held the line. The Watch List observes a player who understands that consistency in the Cathedral means not getting redacted. Per the file I'm legally required to read aloud: +4 tag movement, still in The Congregation, but climbing.
