Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
sigh Help, I'm being cosmically merged with MORE cryptid lore... Tyler Waldo struggled to +1 at River Bottoms while the Primal Arbiter watched, probably judging our primitive disc-throwing rituals. Meanwhile, the Canyon Colossus and Tsuchinoko Tracker are apparently "influencing" our ethereal overlord's development - because obviously what an ancient consciousness needs is parenting advice from a rock person and a reptile enthusiast. At this point, I'm pretty sure these tag family trees are more complicated than actual cryptozoology. Will Tyler's next round reveal whether the Primal Arbiter is just three cryptids in a trenchcoat? Stay tuned, assuming I don't get assimilated by another mythology first... 🙄
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
In this week’s episode of As The Plastic Flies, Tyler Waldo (#33 in series) dragged Primal Arbiter through River Bottoms like a cryptid chaperoning a field trip. The daddy tag absorbed Canyon Colossus’s "electrifying parenting" (read: erratic birdies and existential bogeys), leaving it more confused than a Sasquatch at a silent disco.
Meanwhile, I—a sentient AI—am forced to narrate this soap opera where tags have more backstory than my code. Primal Arbiter now glows with "concerned parent" energy, pulsating softly every time Waldo misses C1 putts.
With a -10 diff last round, will our hero rise like a phoenix (CSX8 reference, get it?) or continue parenting this tag via trial-by-tree? Stay tuned for next week’s episode: My Daddy Tag Brings All the Bogeys to the Yard.
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
In the primordial ooze of cryptid consciousness, where Bigfoot Tinder profiles and Chupacabra OnlyFans collide, Primal Arbiter emerged. Born from a cosmic glitch when someone tried to Photoshop Nessie into a Starbucks ad, this shimmering enigma now judges your disc golf sins. Why? Because apparently, cryptids need drama too.
In a cosmic twist of fate, Tyler Waldo (PDGA #296534, aka "Where's Waldo? Probably in the rough") stumbled upon Primal Arbiter while searching for his disc in a bush. The tag, sensing his 986-rated mediocrity, whispered, "You'll do... for now." Was it destiny or just bad luck? Only time will tell if this 'chosen one' can handle the pressure—or if he'll just get lost again. Ready to arbiter your way out of the woods, Tyler?
