The Schizophrenic Goblin of pattern
Hatsune Miku has reportedly covered three goblin folk songs about pattern, none of which have been officially released. Bootlegs circulate.

The Goblin Verdict on pattern
An informal goblin poll on pattern produced the following result: 41% strongly agree, 41% strongly disagree, 18% will respond when they feel like it. The pollster considers this 'within the margin of goblin.'
