The Story
Mat & Don's was the hippest place in town. The two partners had worked nearly all their adult lives to build their own dream: the best darn Fun Center around. It had everything: video games, billiards, swimming, bowling, sports, and more. The restaurant and bar on location had the best service and even better food. Their slogan was "Not just Fun: Beyond Fun," and their passionately loyal patrons agreed. Until the BallDraggers showed up.
The BallDraggers were obsessed with one thing, and one thing only: dragging balls around (or as their slang put it, "draggin' ballz"). They couldn't get enough of it. While they were not well understood by those outside their world, they were identified easily enough. The colorful spiked hair, nearly identical clothing, and strange code language gave them a clone-like appearance that was easy to spot. But nobody really gave the group much more thought.
Then one day a BallDragger came to Mat & Don's - not the usual hangout of his group - and discovered something that made his hair turn bright yellow: balls. Lots of balls. Bowling balls, basketballs, beach balls, and many, many more. Even pinballs and those plastic balls that the toddlers love to jump around in. His mind nearly exploded at the thought of dragging all those balls around. The BallDragger did his best to contain his excitement until he got back to tell the others. He would be elevated to near God-like status among his peers for such a kewl discovery!
Before anyone knew what happened, there were BallDraggers all over the place. The regulars at Mat & Don's started complaining: BallDraggers were ruining the fun for everyone else, they said. Often the entire place was filled with BallDraggers, dragging the balls around, tying them up so nobody else could use them as originally intended. Balls were left everywhere around the joint, never put back in their proper places. Some patrons started coming to Mat & Don's less and less.
Mat and Don didn't know what to do. On the one hand, the BallDraggers had just as much right to come and drag balls as others had to come and have their own fun. On the other hand, the pair didn't want to alienate their good customers by turning their Fun Center into a BallDragging Center. Then they hit on a plan:
They would invite the regulars to come and clean up the mess left by the BallDraggers. Reward them with MDs, a sort of monetary currency used within the whole Fun Center to purchase food and play games. The more balls returned, the bigger the reward. They even billed it as a contest: to see who could end up with the most MDs once all of the balls were back in their proper places.
You are about to enter that contest.
