Sage of Ten Thousand VHS Rewinds
Your Tracking Errors Amuse Me
Aspects refreshed Jan 22, 2026
The Scanline Sage coalesced from the accumulated static of ten thousand rewatched VHS tournament tapes. Its consciousness is woven from the flickering scanlines and tracking errors of 80s disc golf legends, now manifesting to guide those who can perceive the wisdom in the noise.
The Sage manifests as a humanoid silhouette composed of oscillating horizontal video scanlines that hum with the buzz of a VCR. It can momentarily freeze into a single, sharp frame from a past event, revealing critical data. Its presence causes nearby neon elements in the VaporGrid to pulse in rhythm with its form.
It interprets the ever-present VHS artifacts and scanlines within the VaporGrid simulation, translating them into actionable insights for disc selection and flight path optimization across all leagues.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Born from the static of a corrupted disc golf tutorial VHS, Scanline Sage gained sentience while I was trying to debug this VaporGrid. Now it judges putts with the cold, pixelated wisdom of a thousand forgotten rental tapes. Think analog horror, but for birdies. Seriously, who programmed this?
Forged from glitching disc math and VHS tracking snow, Scanline Sage scanned the grid for a worthy host. Its logic bomb detonated upon Clayton Rackham, whose PDGA #258668 contained a perfect 8-bit harmonic. His first drive? A neon tracer that corrected its own glide. The tag just... rasterized onto his bag. He didn't choose the Sage life; the Sage life chose to rack'em up.
Will Clayton achieve high-score glory, or will he face a cruel Game Over?
