I was really hoping the Sunbeams would have gotten past that 5 run marker in their (2)4-5 loss.

Was that screenshot of the data witches earning someone coins for black holes real? are we in blaseball{n} territory again? I haven't had time to dive in today, especially not between shitposting about the bizarre datacrime of Don Mitchell's replication whilst being swept away and L O N G B O S S. Obviously, the Coin's shift in tone is important but I'd like to point out the wording around Her pronouncement about MVPs. quote:Delivering Our MVPs. the vc-speak side of it as 'minimum viable product' when coupled with the verb 'deliver' is moderately obvious but uh, have y'all noticed how we're getting a lot more defined locations / states? Some of these are loose and may refer to the same thing but: we obviously have the Immaterial Plane, the Hall, the Shadows, elsewhere, whatever the gently caress Released is especially in the context of that there is now Home w/ Based Evolution, the Under and presumably the Over (I'm assuming this is where the big leagues/blaseball2 are given some context from the events around flooding but that's entirely speculation), the Trench (under?), the nebulous context of the Void which seems to mean the Shadows or Hall depending on the other target. also what the HELL was that tacos game? 15-0 is bonkers

This has been the case for basically every incineration, except the backfire on the Umpire which was played straight, from memory. Unless you’re referring to the character of The Commissioner, and not the real actual person behind the Twitter account; in which case, carry on.

Heads up all, Pickles + Morin = the best idol earner by a large margin. What Blessings are other teams thinking of pursuing this time around? Mills have had more debate on this cycle of Wills/Blessings than anything in a while. Though a lot of it is very dumb.

Well, I specifically meant that the normal language of the Coin would immediately point to the former, reinforcing one of the central conceits around the Boss, but I am betting it's a fakeout and we're going to be Delivering the MVPs above the line to ... somewhere, and it's not going to be good.

I was with the Crabs, then I moved to the Firefighters after Ascension (because of Chiclawgo, I guess), and I'll probably stick around. I do like the guy who does the twitch channel for the Shoe Thieves; it's kind of a fun deal. I wonder if there's anything like that for any other teams.

And to be honest while wild swings are fun (and better for smaller teams like the Wings) if every thing becomes super random, I think it looses a bit of the fun, you can't build on anything.

Extra Wills would result in crazy crazy things happening and a LOT more player theft. Any Crabs in here, how much was the first renovation you funded? How much is the second?

The beams have one of the best rated offenses in the league, but defense is abysmal and we got really unlucky with black hole weather when we should have been winning games. The beams lost a game 24-5.

We have a bit of a tracker going for the renovations in the discord for the onces we were trying to get but not sure we have any serious idea how much was actually contributed outside of the sheet. I'd wager maybe 1-2 mill for the first reno and I suspect it might scale up after that. It seems like we only have one rennovation funded so far but are ~45% to another. We might know totals after latesiesta when everything drops.

We might know totals after latesiesta when everything drops. Realy interested to see if costs are going to be linear or exponential for upgrades, as well as if they're going to reset to "base" between seasons. How the scaling works is going to have a pretty huge impact on how the big teams do compared to small teams.

Not sure how limiting it’ll be because even the Tokyo Lift (which I fluted to once they joined from the Garages) got to 100% for the stadium in a few hours after this opened. Lift are looking at Free Wills as a way to boost a bad team, not necessarily to snipe good players away. I think consensus on that is being low on the order means trying to steal a player is liable to backfire.

But Fridays discord seems pretty unified behind Loge so that will probably win. The counter reached 100% almost immediately but I still put in 5k coins on Loge because, why not.

Apparently the person doing the stats for Mills to make decisions on Wills/Blessings didn't know why the batting order was important and hadn't factored it into anything. This bodes well for having more control over team development. My initial joining the discord to get more involved has immediately pivoted to enjoying watching people try to figure out moneyblall from scratch.
