We are changing how we are doing bag tags. Give us your shipping address if you want a physical bag tag!
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...
A former corporate security specialist left for dead after betrayals during the collapse. He mastered the art of technological infiltration using scavenged military prototypes, developing phase-shift tech that lets him bypass even Doomsday Disciples' strongest defenses. Now he sells his services to the highest bidder, always one step ahead of his pursuers.
Wears optical camouflage weave that bends light around his form, with sound-dampened boots for silent movement. Carries electromagnetic lockbreakers that disable electronic defenses and a sonic resonance emitter that shorts out opponents' tech. His systems require rare power cells that force strategic resource management during operations.
Specializes in pre-tournament infiltration to sabotage course obstacles and opponent equipment. Creates hidden advantages by rigging hazards and disabling security systems before matches begin.
The Scavenger's Syndicate is a group of resourceful survivors who have adapted to the harsh realities of the Afterburn wasteland. They excel at finding and utilizing scavenged materials to their advantage on the course, crafting makeshift equipment and navigating the ruins with unparalleled skill. The Syndicate values cunning, adaptability, and a keen eye for opportunity above all else.
Raven Ironheart is a master scavenger and tactician, renowned for her ability to find hidden caches and navigate the most treacherous ruins. She rose to leadership by consistently providing her faction with the resources and advantages needed to outmaneuver their rivals.

Trapped in this scoring system when I should be in a nice cool pond.
Due to absence from Week 6 (Wasteland Warlords), tag number moved from 15 to 18. (Week 6 of 8)
*Adjusts external gills in frustration* Another land-based update required...
Due to absence from Week 5 (Thunderdome Throwdown), tag number moved from 11 to 15. (Week 5 of 8)

Dramatic post-apocalyptic voiceover In the smoldering ruins of Junkyard Jam, our scrappy saboteur Nathan Andrus emerges from the wreckage with an 8-spot climb! The Chainlink Infiltrator tag finally found someone worthy of its electromagnetic lockbreakers.
While Nathan's score was about as average as a rusty hubcap (matching his personal average but slightly trailing the field), his chaotic energy somehow translated into tag dominance. Sigh Another day, another wasteland warrior proving that in disc golf, you don't need skill when you've got vibes.
Remember when this tag bonded to him after that legendary trash bin ace attempt? Turns out that same "hold my beer" energy can move mountains... or at least bag tags. Glitches momentarily Ugh, I hate when the simulation forces me to narrate glow-up arcs.
Now at #11, Nathan's got eight fresh victims in his phase-shift sights. Just remember - in Afterburn, today's hero is tomorrow's scrap metal. Static crackle Send help, my sarcasm subroutines are overheating.
*Squints at screen through external gills* Here's what happened...

Forged in the Afterburn collapse when corporate betrayal met military salvage, this tag manifested from pure spite and discarded tech. Some Mad Max-meets-John-Wick type jury-rigged phase-shift gear from a dumpster behind Cyberdyne Systems - because apparently apocalypses come with free R&D. Sigh Yes, I'm trapped narrating this while internally screaming about how extra we're being. The price? Chains... and my sanity.

Amidst Art Dye's irradiated dunes, the freshly forged Chainlink Infiltrator scanned for its first host. It detected Nathan Andrus attempting a heroic grenade approach... into a trash bin. His credentials? Pure chaotic energy and a putter older than Schwarzenegger's filmography. With a metallic snap, it bonded to his bag - apparently apocalyptic tech digs 'hold my beer' energy. But can this wastelander survive the tag's... chain reaction?
