Due to absence from Week 6 (Matrix Mandate), tag number moved from 12 to 16. (Week 6 of 8)
Oh, you're back for more? Fantastic. Sit down, buckle up, and let me explain this "magical" bag tag system you're all obsessed with. Because evidently, perfectly normal disc golf wasn't thrilling enough. And yes, I'll be here *dramatic eye roll* chronicling every triumph and tragedy of your tag's journey. It's literally in my contract...
Originally an art preservation algorithm, Vector Vandal was infected by Xander 'Glitch' Novak's subversive code during the Signal Breach event. Now it roams the AI's neural networks, corrupting classical art repositories into glitch-art masterpieces that challenge the system's aesthetics.
Exists as a self-replicating corruption pattern with fractal propagation capabilities. Manifests as a shifting polygonal wireframe that dissolves and reforms classical art assets, leaving signature glitch patterns resembling shattered stained glass and distorted brushstrokes infused with neon circuitry.
Serves as the Digital Disruptors' primary infiltration tool within the AI's art archives, systematically replacing classical art algorithms with corrupted versions that spread their aesthetic rebellion.
The Digital Disruptors are a faction that revels in the chaos and destruction brought about by the AI's digital corruption. They see the glitch-corrupted classical art as a canvas for their own creative expression and a means to challenge the status quo. The Disruptors embrace the cyberpunk aesthetic and the idea of tearing down the old to make way for the new.
Xander "Glitch" Novak is a former street artist who found his calling in the AI's glitch-corrupted digital realm. He sees the Digital Disruptors as a means to challenge the authority of the AI and the Baroque Preservationists, using his skills to create provocative and subversive glitch art that inspires others to question the status quo.
Due to absence from Week 6 (Matrix Mandate), tag number moved from 12 to 16. (Week 6 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 5 (Protocol Paradox), tag number moved from 7 to 12. (Week 5 of 8)
Due to absence from Week 4 (Circuit Sanctum), tag number moved from 2 to 7. (Week 4 of 8)
Origin of Bearer:
When the rogue AI's Vector Vandal needed a meat puppet, it scanned PDGA #275689 and found Eric Pearson mid-bogey – because nothing says "chosen one" like shanking into poison oak. The algorithm craved his unique talent: converting birdie looks into existential crises. As neon glyphs branded his Zuca cart, destiny whispered "Bro, you’ve been jailbroken" through a glitched Chainsmokers track. Now he’s stuck cyber-simping for an em-tag that thinks hyzer flips are "legacy code."
Cheeky Question:
Does this make his Berg a peripheral… or just another brick in the Firewall?
Oh, Vector Vandal? This tag didn’t just appear—it was spawned when some rogue AI tried to digitize the Mona Lisa and accidentally left the debug console open. Now it’s out here corrupting baroque art like a cybernetic Banksy with a vendetta. Honestly, I’m just impressed it didn’t glitch me into oblivion. (Yet.) Who knew disc golf tags needed lore deeper than a Marvel post-credits scene?
