    I'll go with a screwing. Clusterfuck is strictly reserved for "a clusterfuck of heavies".

    I was originally going to say "A murder" like crows, but then I saw an omelette and realized it HAD to be that.

    I greatly prefer Scramble of Diggles over an omelette. It has a double meaning. One, it implies a group that is scrambling around the dungeon to kill you. Two, eggs, of course.

    Saying an Omelette of Diggles sounds way too much like "Diggle Omlette", impying an omelette made out of diggles. At first hearing it's confusing because all you can picture in your head is an actual omelette made of them. Only later do you realize that it's supposed to be a group noun. It's like saying a Salad of Diggles, or Casserole of Diggles. This first thing you imagine in those cases is the food. I just don't think it works.

    But Scramble of Diggles would work great, and it has the same joke.

    For me, it's definitely a Harassment of Diggles.
