Smasher Dynamo
Oct 16, 2008

Eternal Commissioner of the Super League. A new avatar. A new age, of the same old embittered Smasher that failed to escape the bonds of the SL, FM3, Johnny Hopp and Eri Yoshida "The Knuckle Princess". "The flames of Smasher's ire scorch the skies... Igniting St. Bellhorn's funeral pyre."


When the very last post is made on Something Awful, you can be damned sure that it's going to be a Super-League update. I outlasted blaseball, and I'll outlast every other pretender that comes along and thinks they can do my job better than me! Ab aeterno ad infinitum, motherfuckers!

The Super-League is about baseball. Maybe. Sort of. It's hard to explain. Probably best to go to the discord for more information. Super-League Discord. GO THERE NOW!


New Team Form

Fill out Now

This needs to be done to secure a spot in the Super-League

Teams Selected:

Pick eleven points worth of teams (twelve points for people who have never owned a Super-League team before), spread out over as many teams as you'd like. Hell, you could have eleven one-point teams if you really wanted.

These items also need to be filled out, but not immediately, just as soon as you have some spare time

Team Name:

Team Logo (150x150 preferred):

Home City:

Home Stadium:

30-Man Roster:

25 in the majors, 5 in the minors

Lineups:
The Super-League is All-DH now!

The Big, Big List of Feeder Teams

Pick eleven points of feeder teams, twelve if you've never owned a team in the Super-League.

If you have any questions about these feeders, please come to the Super-League Discord where I will answer your questions to the best of my ability. (Note: I may lack ability).

Monicro and I are uniting to form a corporate team.

This corporate team is different from how most corporate teams are formed in that instead of agreeing on feeders, I took 5 points of feeders, she took 5 points of feeders, and we had zero communication between the two of us regarding what we were actually picking:

My half:

1965 Milwaukee Braves (3)
1997 Montreal Expos (2)

Monicro's half:
1920 Chicago Cubs (2)
1964 Los Angeles Dodgers (2)
1988 Texas Rangers (1)

Now, you may say, "Yaya that's only 10 points! EC teams have 11 points to work with!"

OUR FINAL FEEDER IS
