Splat: A Fun New Game

Maggie and I came up with a point system for killing bugs, which is a surprisingly fun way of dealing with the disgusting number of bugs we see every day. These are hotly debated numbers, but so far, here’s what we’ve got:

Gnat/fruit fly: 1 pt
Fly: 10 pts
Mosquito: 30 pts
Big cockroach: 50 pts
Jumping spider: 70 pts
Huge spider: 150 pts

We started Tuesday, and so far Michael’s the only one who’s really made any points (he’s got 70). I’m on the alert, though, and there’s a cockroach right outside my door – feel free to play along from home!
