Yeah, “Wizard” Cartman here…. filling in for the “All Knowing” Tim the Enchanter who is busy negotiating the Government Shutdown (cough “drunk”). Yeah, uh, in His Mightiness’ absence – could you cut me a stone and tell me what realm the Nivlacball was found in. I believe that would be The Old Line State??
As per the haiku:
Like “Sex and Candy”
Looking over Potomac
Left of the concreteFirst line refers to Marcy Playground. I almost went to Ft. Marcy Park in McLean, which would have been a wild goose chase. Actually refers to Marcey Rd, as per 2nd line – Potomac Overlook Park off Military Rd., not far from Tim the Enchanter’s lair.

ParticipantSCORE
Wizard Cartman here for your dork game while Tim resides in the Dark Kingdom of Kongress (that’s where dog toys are stuffed with a thousand suffering souls of peanut butter). Let’s get this over with. I’m kind of tired after spending that last hour maintaining a hex on Jacksonville (you didn’t think Brady could win a football game without the help of black magic, did you? That guy sold his soul a looooong time ago.).
NemaVeze
5 Points for Swag (chain brush!)
5 Points for Find
5 Points for new ordinance (crossing borders)
10 Points for the $2m puppy picture
-15 points for missing the obviously hidden Calvinball down at Nats Park. I mean…. It was right there. How could you miss it. Even Reji could see it even tho it was WAY WAY above her head!!!
NemaVeze is awarded 25 pointsJosh
Nivlacball
10 Points for crossing borders
5 Points for Swag
5 Points new ordinance
5 points for the find
Total 25 PointsCalvinball
10 Points for crossing borders
4 points for the find (took more than one day to find hide)
5 Points for Swag
Total 19 PointsHowever since Josh captured both Calvinballs simultaneously, one Calvinball’s score obliterates the other and he is left with a mere 6 points. You knew the risks yet you just had to capture both Calvinballs. Dont Toy with Wizards!!!!
Reji
5 Points for the find
5 Points for the Makers Mark (I am so glad Calvinball is becoming a chapter of AA)
10 points for borders
5 Points for new ordinance
3 enchanted points for giving whiskey to Tim the Enchanter
My Captain (who would not let me nap at the end of Saturday’s 50 mile ride!) is awarded 28 pointsReminder that the codified ordinances as well as the official score are maintained in the Library of the First Page of this Thread.
Just kidding about the two scores obliterating each other Josh

Thank you Steve for the hint…but the better hint would have been the hours of operation…because “Tim behind the counter” did not open the shop!
