| + | *A whole flock of applicants for a secretarial position begin pestering you to decide which one is best suited for the job. While they're distracted, you get the jump. |
| + | *You stumble over a chessboard and fall face-first onto the eight queens riveted onto it. Funny, none of them share the same row, column or diagonal. On a side note: your opponent gets the jump. |
| + | |
| + | '''Successful Attack''' |
| + | *It bashes you repeatedly for X DAMAGE. There is no optimal stopping! |
| + | *You are hit by a bunch of secretaries sequentially on random body parts, with each order being equally likely. OUCH! X DAMAGE! |
| + | *Out of nowhere a monkey sudenly shambles up to you, bashing you with a bunch of bananas for X DAMAGE! |
| + | '''Miss Message(s)''' |
| + | *Several secretaries attempt to hit you sequentially on random body parts, but step on each others toes before reaching you. |
| + | *The eight queens are currently busy with arguing among each other. |
| + | *A couple of secretaries have wandered off and are busily inspecting their fingernails. |
| + | *Suddenly a monkey comes along, pushing a box. It ignores you completely. |
