@Poog: As you can see on the map all planks on the goblins' side of the map are mostly above water. You slip, you fall into the water.
Reta decides to take advantage of the stirge injured by Mogmurch, and shoots it. She and Mogmurch are now tied in score.
The stirges now seem to be aware of the goblins attacking them, and try to fly away. (Not flat-footed anymore.) However, as they're tied to the posts, they can't.
Round 2
I'm dropping the initiative order, because it slows the game down too much. You all get to take your turn, and everything will resolve in the order it's posted in.
The map's updated. Use it please, so I know where you're going.
| Mogmurch Goboom |
Seeing Reta's arrow fly past to strike the stirge Mogmurch had hit last round, Mogmurch shouts over his shoulder, "You go find your own to attack and no take mine!" Moving cautiously forward, Mogmuch does his best to keep his balance before lobbing another bomb at a stirge.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 4 - 2 = 15
Ranged Touch: 1d20 + 8d6d1d6 + 2 ⇒ (7) + (5, 5, 4, 3, 1, 6, 5, 5, 3, 1, 5, 5, 3, 4, 3, 2, 3, 5, 2, 1, 5, 3, 6, 4, 1, 2, 1, 5, 2, 6, 5, 4, 2, 4) + 2 = 130
Move forward 5 feet and throw bomb at stirge to the right, marked by the red circle on the map below.

I apologize, I failed to handle the map properly, now...the one that I had moved Chuffy to appears to be gone :( Though with his previous rolls, where I have moved him to now should be acceptable...and presumably I should have gotten one killed as well...
Chuffy takes a quick step and slashes another stirge.
Acro: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 10 - 2 = 20

Blue Square marks Reta's target.
| StephNyan |
@Chuffy: Now I get what you tried to do I'll let it count ;)
The stirge attacked by Chuffy last round was cut badly. It tried to stay airborne, but finally collapses. Chuffy attacks another stirge, but misses his attack.
Mogmurch throws another bomb and blasts another stirge apart. Several bits and pieces land next to Reta, who just managed to take down her second stirge with a well-aimed shot.
Scores:
Chuffy, 2 points
Mogmurch, 4 points
Poog
Reta, 4 points
Round 3!
The map's updated.
| Chuffy of the Hills |
Another slash!
1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
1d4 - 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (2) - 1 + (3, 1) = 5
After seeing the slash land, provided that ends the Stirge, Chuffy lets out a cackle and leaps to the next platform!
1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 10 - 2 = 22
Then dashes to the opposite shore and ends up looking at another balance beam.
1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 10 - 2 = 12
Poog the Pregen

Reta attempts to kick the beams down.
Strength check!1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Updated map
| StephNyan |
Chuffy catches up with Mogmurch and Reta, and moves safely to the other shore. Reta succesfully kicks one of the beams down, possibly preventing Mogmurch's return to her side of the shore.
Scores:
Chuffy, 4 points
Mogmurch, 4 points
Poog
Reta, 4 points
Mogmurch's up.
The map's updated. The red circle shows where a beam's missing.
| Mogmurch Goboom |
Hearing the pillar give way behind him, Mogmurch pivoted his torso to see the walkway crumple into the marshy water. Though he still smiled, his eyes narrowed at Reta before turning back to the task at hand. Mogmurch attempted to move further along the planks until he is in range of another stirge before launching another bomb.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (14) + 4 - 2 = 16
ranged touch: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
fire damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 6) + 2 = 13
I had forgotten to update the damage for my bombs so it is 2D6 on the ranged touch and a failed save on splash damage causes 4 damage, 2 damage on a successful save.

Reta waves a cheeky Goblin wave.
Needed to do something Goblin like. I was being too normal.....
| StephNyan |
Where does the bomb land?: 1d8 ⇒ 7
Mogmurch misses the stirge he aimed for, and the bomb explodes above teh water east of it. The stirge east of the intended target gets some of the splash damage on it, but it survives.

Pushing forward, Chuffy goes for another kill!
Acro: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 - 2 = 15
Acro: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 10 - 2 = 18
Acro: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 10 - 2 = 14
After his deft feet get him where he needs to be, he slashes the bound stirge.
1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
1d4 - 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) - 1 + (5, 3) = 11
1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
1d4 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0
| Mogmurch Goboom |
Frowning for but a moment when he realized that he was down to his last few bombs, Mogmurch shrugged before his smile returned, tossing the volatile concoction at one of the stirges around him.
Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
fire damage: 2d6 + 2 ⇒ (6, 5) + 2 = 13
Bigger triangle is location of the bomb throw. Splash should hit the injured stirge.

Where does the bomb land?: 1d8 ⇒ 7
Reflex intended target: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
Reflex wounded stirge: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
Mogmurch's bomb misses, but the wounded stirge and his intended target are both within splash range. Both stirges are hurt, but both of them are still alive after resisting half the splash damage. The stirge that was already wounded looks like it's about to drop.
Scores:
Chuffy, 6 points
Mogmurch, 4 points

Reta takes advantage and attempts yet another steal!!!
Shoot the more injured stirge!! 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 201d4 ⇒ 1
| Mogmurch Goboom |
Turning back to Reta, Mogmurch cackles as he shouts, "Reta no big tough warrior. You do again and you get fire to face!" Then, Mogmurch advanced on the other stirge as he drew his stout wooden branch, hopeing to smash the large insect with it.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (17) + 4 - 2 = 19

Round 6 starts now!
This dare started 2.5 weeks ago, and I feel like it could run at least 1.5 more weeks. Because we run this module as a Gameday game, which will run until July 5, I fear we won't finish in time with the current pace.
For this reason I'll end this dare with round 6, and round 6 will run no longer than 2 days.
| Chuffy of the Hills |
Taking a quick step back and then leaping into the air, Chuffy jumps to the next bar, then spins and slashes at the stirge.
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 10 - 2 = 28
1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
1d4 - 1 + 2d6 ⇒ (4) - 1 + (6, 3) = 12

I was at my local Con as well. Mike Brock was here and he TPKed a table!!!
Reta fires upon a Stirge!! Actually at Mogsmurch's target giggling all this time.
"Reta shooting smart!"
Shoot!! 1d20 + 8 - 4 ⇒ (5) + 8 - 4 = 91d4 ⇒ 4
| StephNyan |
With a spectaculair leap Chuffy ends up next to his next target, which he slaughters with a deathly slash.
Reta's smart and shoots another arrow at the stirge that's already hurt by Mogmurch. Her aim proves less clever, and she fails to hit her target.
"Last one up is Mogmurch!" Wise Mummy Sprattleharsh announces from the shore, "We have one more dare for you when you're done here!"
Scores:
Chuffy, 8 points
Mogmurch, 4 points
Poog
Reta, 6 points
Mogmurch's up. With a well-aimed bomb and some luck he may even end up sharing first place with Chuffy!

Unfortunate that Poog went out first. Usually from what I know Poog Excells in this particular dare.
| StephNyan |
"Chuffy's the winner!" Wisy Mummy Sprattleharsh announces, and the goblins of the Birdcrunchers tribe cheer for Chuffy, "Second place goes to Reta, and third place to Mogmurch!"
Total scores:
Chuffy: 14 + 8 = 22 points
Reta: 8 + 6 = 14 points
Mogmurch: 0 + 4 = 4 points
Poog: 0 + 0 = 0 points
Final Dare: Bird Pie Finally
For the last dare, Wise Mummy Sprattleharsh leads the chieftains-in-waiting back toward the Birdcruncher cave—as they approach, the stink of rotten meat and spoiled milk grows. The scent comes from a horrific “pie” that’s been created in a 10-foot-diameter bowl-shaped depression in the rock—the bowl is only 18 inches deep, but filled with a nasty, not-quite-boiling-hot slurry of spoiled milk, mud, swamp water, mashed-up grass, and dead birds. The top is covered over with an incongruously delicious- and flakylooking pie crust. Several cauldrons of boiling pie filling sit nearby, along with a number of large, dented metal funnels.
Wise Mummy Sprattleharsh explains that the giant birdmeat pie is still baking, and the chieftains-in-waiting will all be tied up and placed in the pie to cook. Each goblin is allowed to carry and wear all of his gear and equipment in this dare. The first goblin to make it out of the pie earns 10 points. The second goblin earns 5 points. The third earns 3 points. Any contestants after the third earn no points at all.
Complicating these matters, though, are the four golden eagles that are going to join the goblins in the pie—these eagles have had their wings clipped so they can’t fly, but they’re very much alive and very angry at their predicament. Killing an eagle earns that goblin a bonus of 5 points, so a goblin who stays in the pie and comes out last can still come out ahead in points if he kills enough eagles.
With the rules explained, the contestants are lined up around the edge of the pie and have their wrists and ankles tied together. As Wise Mummy uses her last thunderstone, all contestants are pushed into the pie.
For the purposes of this “combat,” you can assume that no real movement is going on—the pie is only 10 feet across, so no matter where you are in the pie, you’re adjacent to any foes you might wish to attack. All of the contestants and all four eagles are treated as if they’re squeezing (–4 penalty on attack rolls, –4 penalty to AC) due to the cramped quarters. The eagles themselves flap and flop about and are tremendously agitated.

| StephNyan |
Never yet seen a headbutt in Pathfinder, haha! I like it, but as I described in 'Escaping Bonds' it's a standard action to try and break free. So you have only a move action left after the strength check :(
Poog tries to get out of his bonds, but his strength fails him. He curses at the hot bubbly birdstew, which Poog's not exactly fond of.
I'll give the others till tomorrow, considering it's the weekend. If Poog can think of a move action to take after trying to escape his bonds, he may do so!

| Mogmurch Goboom |
Upset that he wasn;t doing as well as the others, Mogmurch decided to put extra effort into the next dare. After seeing how it works though, he found himself even more distraught. In an enclosed area, where he couldn't effectively use his bombs, at least not without hurting the others. Suddenly finding himself falling with his hands bound, he screamed in glee as he fell into the "broth".
Upon seeing the eagles however, Mogmurch sprang into action, wrenching at his bonds, trying to wriggle his way out of the ropes.
