The Ultimate Smith – Busting on double bullseye when you only need a single bullseye to win.
The Mos(er) – Missing the board completely.
The Ultimate Mos(er) – Missing the board 3 times in a row.
The Fitch – Missing the board, but you somehow get a double anyways.
The Ultimate Fitch – Hitting an 18 but the board gives you a bullseye.
The Pineda – Busting because you can’t do math.
The Doug – Closing out all your marks in cricket with absolutely no points.
The Heeg – Starting the game with a 100+ point round and doing terrible the rest of the game.
