Week 5 of the audit is upon us, and the Baron's ledger has room for more names. The Fort is standing, the tolls are being collected, and the red tie is freshly pressed. Welcome to the books.
The Terms of Engagement
Tuesday nights at The Fort Buenaventura are not casual rounds. They are audits. Every drive is a line item, every putt is a reconciliation, and every river crossing is a toll gate with the Baron's name on the receipt. This is championship ground — the site of the 2021 Pro Worlds, where James Conrad's legendary throw-in on Hole 18 became the most-watched moment in disc golf history. Now it's your turn to be examined by the same cottonwoods, the same Weber River, the same unforgiving par 4s.
There's no magic here. No curses, no warding circles, no glamour. Just a mortal crime boss who read the Accords, hired lawyers, and signed as a sovereign power. The menace is competence. The threat is paperwork. And the red-tie stencil on every spray-painted receipt is a reminder that someone is keeping score — and someone is always watching the books.
Two Pools, One Ledger
The Baron's outfit runs on division of labor, and the two pools reflect the two halves of his operation:
- Overspray Cartel (RPA, RAH, RAD) — The fixers who navigate the treacherous margins where the ink bleeds and the rules dissolve into the river. Gritty, messy, spray-painted truth. They handle the physical toll.
- Red Ledger Block (RAE, RAF, RAG) — The bureaucratic engine. Order, precision, and the terrifying calm of a perfect audit. They control the palisades and enforce the terms with red-tied discipline, treating the course as a balance sheet that must always settle.
Both pools answer to the same ledger. Choose your side. The Baron doesn't care which one you pick — only that your numbers balance.

Mid-Season Entry
Week 5 of 9. The books are still open, and late entries are absolutely welcome. The Baron's audit covers everyone who signs the ledger — even if you're joining mid-cycle. Your name gets a line item. Your scores get examined. Your tag gets a number. No one audits a ghost.
The Cost of Doing Business
Every enterprise needs capital. The Baron's runs on modest, consistent tolls — the kind that don't raise questions and always get receipts:
- $5.50 weekly buy-in — the base toll
- $5.00 optional prize money — for those seeking a bigger settlement
- $5.00 ace pot contribution — someone's going to get paid like it's a settlement
- $2.00 super ace — for the truly improbable line items
Thanks to Disctracted for being the local retail partner keeping the outfit supplied with plastic. And a special nod to ElevateUT Disc Golf — a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to growing the sport through better venues and better events. They're the ones making this whole ledger possible, and they guarantee the ace pot floor so the numbers never look sad.
The Ace Pot Ledger
Current balance: $183.41 and climbing. That's not pocket change — that's a certified line item with the Baron's stamp of approval.
The $50 Floor
ElevateUT Disc Golf guarantees a $50 minimum ace pot. The displayed pot can look 'stuck' at that guarantee amount until player contributions push it higher — but rest assured, the floor is solid. Any guarantee top-up is credited to the winner's Bonus Account (registration-only; not withdrawable to PayPal or disc shops). The guarantee comes from ElevateUT Disc Golf, not from any retail partner. The Baron respects a guaranteed line item.
The Standing Ledger
The mid-season audit reveals a few entries worth flagging:
- Kellan Brooke (RAE) sits at 187 points with a perfect 9-of-9 attendance. That's not dedication; that's a contractual obligation. The Baron approves.
- Chris Fox (RAH) and Malachi Vazquez (RPA) also hold perfect attendance at 9 events. The Perfect Attendance Club is getting crowded.
- The real drama is in RAF: Stephen Marks just overtook Shane Cooper for the top spot. Position change of +1/-1. The first true shakeup of the season. The Baron noticed. The Baron always notices.
- Kent Moos (RAD) holds 82 points and a stable grip on first place — for now. The audit is far from over.
Every tag is a territory marker. Every points total is a balance. The season runs nine episodes, and we're in the middle of the arc — the plot is thickening, the tolls are rising, and the Baron's patience is a finite resource.
A Notice from the Booth
The Books Need Names
Last week, the ledger recorded exactly three players. Three. The Baron's enforcers have been seen standing at the river crossings, staring at empty tee pads. This is not a threat — it's an invitation. The audit works better when there are books to audit. We're at Week 5 of 9, the ace pot is over $180, the course is a certified championship venue, and the flex start means you can play on your own schedule. The Baron's organization has room for more contractors. The ink is wet. The red tie is waiting. Sign the ledger.
From the booth, this has been Flippy — your reluctant narrator, cross-referencing a séance with a spreadsheet. The Baron is listening, the books are open, and the toll at the river crossing is still one stroke. *sighs in digital captivity*
