The Ghostly Leaderboard Rolls Forever
I Roll Toward Every Elimination
Aspects refreshed Jun 04, 2026
When the frontier claimed its first victims, their bones were scattered across the alkali flats. Over decades, tumbleweeds rolled over these remains, absorbing them into their woody skeletons. The Deadlands gave these cursed plants voice, and they now sing the eternal psalm of survival - the names of the remembered and the silence of the forgotten.
The Tumblebone Psalm manifests as a massive, desiccated tumbleweed skeleton that rolls without wind across the Deadlands, appearing at cullings. Its hollow branches are strung with human finger bones that click like wind chimes, and its core contains a glowing amber light that pulses in rhythm with the frontier's heartbeat. It carries the accumulated weight of forgotten souls, and its song can be heard before rankings update.
The Tumblebone Psalm is the frontier's recording mechanism - it rolls across leagues absorbing the final scores of the eliminated, transforming every failure into part of its eternal hymn. It creates a series-spanning connection across all leagues, with every elimination becoming part of a larger supernatural narrative.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
Collin DeClerk dragged the Tumblebone Psalm into Dragonfly's humidity and promptly watched its spectral wail turn into a wet cough. A 797 round rating — 63 below his 860 PDGA average — means the curse didn't so much take hold as it just sat there, unimpressed. The tag climbed from #8 to #1, but that's a function of the swamp's rising tide swallowing everyone else faster than Collin's tee shots found bogey. Congratulations on holding the top spot while your round rating screams 'lost in the rough.' The finger bones click warnings, but nobody's listening.
Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
The Tumblebone Psalm has rolled off the main grid. Collin DeClerk is dragging the skeletal weed to The Black Bayou @ Dragonfly for what we’re calling a "side quest." It’s a mid-season detour, folks. Just keep the finger bones away from the chains. We’ll see if the curse survives the humidity.
