Scrambed B on Toast
Work in progress
A 5 person takeout pattern.
There are 5 positions:
- The feeder
- Two feedes: A and B
- A person in the middle
- A person starting on the outside
The feeder (F), A, and B are starting in a standard feed position where the feeder is doing 2-count and the feedees are doing 4-count.
M (middle person) is standing between the Feeder and A.
O (outside) is standing next to M, but outside the pattern.
To start the pattern, we do a slow start where we do 2 normal passes in a feed, i.e. F and A, exchange a d pass and F and B exchange a pass. In the slow start F, A, and B each have 3 clubs (2 in their right hand and 1 in their left). M and O each have a single club in their right hand. Our slow starts has the following beats: A, B, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, ...
This is different from when the pattern is running. At a transition from one feeder to another, in the running pattern, A and O would each have 2 clubs and do a 'fast'. The new M would also do an exchange/fast with the new feeder and each of them would have 2 clubs instead of starting with 3 for F and 1 for M.
The position rotation is M->F->O->A->B who will become M again.
The pattern repeats after 3 beats.
- Feeder (F)
- slwo start: two extra passes to A and B (which are skipped during the running pattern). passes to the left feedee (A) on 1. The pass gets intercepted by M and carried over to A. Then F does a lofty pass to the position of feedee B, which also gets caught by M. Then a pass to A (caught by A). Then an extra pass (on the new beat 1) to M who is now took over the position of the feeder.
- Middle (M)
- slow start: steals pass 1 from the feeder. during the running pattern: M was the previous B and the old M caught the lofty. At this point B becomes the new M and walks in front of the new F, does an exchange/fast with F and then carries pass 1 to A (same as in the slow start). After handing the pass to A M does a hand across, waits for B to pass to F, steps past B and catches the lofty pass 2 from F to B. Now M has two clubs, is standing next to B and will become the next feeder.
- Feedee A
- slow start: an extra pass to F (beat A). during the pattern: passes on 1 to F, passes on 3 to F (intercepted and carried over by the outside person), catches on 3 a pass from F, walks over and stands next to where O stands and becomes the new Back
- Feedee B
- slow start: extra pass to F (beat B). during the pattern: passes on 2 to F, but doesn't catch the incoming lofty one. flips both clubs, waits for M to catcht he lofty and stand next to B, then walks in front of M (becoming the next F) and does an exchange/fast and then carries the resulting 1 to the new A.
- Outside O
- slow start: waits for M to catch the lofty in front of B. Walks in facing to the outside of the pattern and carries pass 3 from A to F, turns anti-clockwise and stands next to F becoming the new A. Gets handing a club (beat 1) from the new M. during the pattern: O was the last feeder, who as the last pass of the feed, does still a pass on the new 1 to the new feeder and with that pass gets down to 2 clubs. then flips both clubs, walks in front of the new A, does and exchange/fast and caries the resulting pass 3 to F and stands then next to F (with one club) and gets handed a club from the new M.
The whole sequence from the point of M, including the slow start:
Stand between F and A. Wait for the slow start (beat A) to finish, steal beat 1 from F, hand a club to A, wait for pass 2 from B to F to go by, step through the pattern of B/F and catch the lofty toast (pass 2 from F to B). With 2 clubs, stand next to B, wait for B to walk in front of you (B will flip the clubs) and do an exchange/fast with you. You are now F and this is the beginning of the feed (pass 1). Pass 2 is the lofty toast to the new right feedee (B), incoming club from B, followed by a normal pass to A (left feedee). Incoming club will be handed to you from O on beat 3. O will stand next to you. On the next beat 1 you still do one pass to the new F, get down to 2 clubs. You are now O. Flip both clubs, wait for the new M to hand a club to the new A, then walk between the A and F, do an exchange/fast with A, carry pass 3 to F, stand next to F with 1 club. You are now A. the new M will hand you a second club, the new O will step in front of you and do an exchange with you on beat 2, carrying your club on beat 3 to the current F. You catch the incoming 3 from F and step next to the current O. You are now B. You do a pass on 2 to F, have M catching the incoming lofty toast. You are now M again, but instead of the slow start, you now have 2 clubs, you flip them both, walk in front of the new F (on your left), do an exchange/fast with F and carry beat 1 over to the new A, wait for B to pass on 2 and then catch the lofty toast...
