*Warty went on a pee break, today it’s all up to Snorty to deliver the goods.*
Snorty: It’s a crazy day to be watching frog baseball folks! The ball is in the air and to be honest it feels like it’s been in the air for a while, something like a week almost! That’s crazy! As the ball stays in the air, the Boa begins to accelerate towards the base! OMG what’s gonna happen??
Knobbywood is ready for some serious impact. He gets his shoulder checking game on while holding his feet ready and steady on the lillypad, waiting for someone to finally throw a ball to him! He’s been having that arm ready since the beginning of the inning which was a long time ago, but he is not tired at all thanks to all the crotch thrusting that kept him warm and the fans noisy! As I say all this the snake is still accelerating in a surprisingly super straight line!
Pitchoris is doing good to just watch a bit, although he doesn’t look like his calm self, he’s at least relaxing his pitching arm. AWESOME.. umm.. what else what else.. OH WOW!
Is that Stavros?? Stavros’ quietness seems to have worked its magic! Look at that massive leap! He’s a whopping 39 inches off the ground! If he wants he can glide for quite some time! Is that what he’s up to? NO folks! He’s going for it! Confident that his prep from before increased his aim enough, he just shoots his tongue towards the ball as it’s in mid air! OMG OMG OMG the tongue is shiny and amazing and it’s like an awesome iridescent colour like that early NOKIA phone or something BUT THAT’S NOT THE POINT! The point is that the tongue is heading nicely towards the spinning ball! The tongue sticks to the ball and the ball stops spinning and changes its trajectory straight to STAVROS OMG! Who would have thought? Stavros is holding the ball before it fell in the water! You know what that means folks! The Boa is OUT! 2 Snakes OUT one of which is severely injured splashing around!
Out you go BOA, loser!…wait why isn’t the Boa leaving? It’s still heading straight to Knobby, it looks angry AF!! Oh crap oh crap, I can see some blood coming out of the boa’s ‘tail’.. is that…? OMG folks that’s a harpoon stuck in there! What’s that weird shadow under there? Wait what happened while I was focusing on the ball?
*Snorty looks at the replays*
Oh wow folks I can’t believe I missed that, but it looks like Snowfrog, yes our shy little Snowfrog, panicked and totally attacked the Boa and engaged it in combat. The Harpoon just about pierced the snake as she somersaulted in the water. Judging by the replay and the shadow, she is still underwater
*Switches to underwater camera*
Ha wow Snowfrog somersaulted in the water but forgot that her harpoon is still attached to the snake, so she is effectively being dragged along with the snake! Look at those trajectories! Let’s hope she uses this to her advantage, unless she wants to just waterski or something! Looks like the snake lost some health and is pissed off and ready to continue combat! What will our frogs do? Is this baseball or fighting? What will Stavros do? Throw the ball to the snake? To knobby for him to swing his bat? Keep the ball? Throw it to Knobby to keep the ball? So many options that I can’t even think of and probably better! Regardless.. they got balls, bats, guts, limbs, tongues.. and teamwork! Let’s see what they got in store baby!
THIS IS LOOKING SWEET!… oh no.. fudge.. what’s that in the horizon? Crap folks.. with two snakes out, the third snake is coming.. ready to bat and it looks fierce.. its the RAINBOA
.. I can’t tell if we are screwed or not…
WHIIIIZZZ
Wait what’s that in the sky?? Is it a bird? a plane? It’s a bird! And what’s that next to it which is even weirder? OOOO that looks like a frog on some sort of AVATAR like glider! OH SNAP! The tide might turn in our favour still! (if it isn't already)
WE GOT A NEW OUTFIELDER ENTERING THE POND! Koo has arrived on the scene with her badass equipment and superpowers!
OOG:
Awesome Stavros! Your earlier bonuses on your accuracy just about pushed the roll above the Difficulty Check I had :D
So you guys are now engaged in combat with the Boa. Combat works very similar to Defending. You can chain and the equipment you have is still baseball related.
You can all fight now, and you can always use things from the drawings to interact with for the fight or not.
Check out the Powerpoint and the Google doc for info on the snakes, combat and the underwater area.
Also: Welcome our NEWEST FROG! Paige AKA KOO! Card added at the top!
KOO I can send an email to explain a few things if you don’t want to go through the whole blog so far!
Also: If anyone wants to share their address privately by email to me I have goodies for you!
Re: Rainboa, no need to worry yet (unless you want to) he will only be ready to bat in the next turn.
Next post on Wednesday! :D
