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."


The Super-League is about making a fake baseball team. And then having said fake baseball team's head caved in by fake baseball teams created by other owners. Also, this happens forever.

It's also probably a Fire Emblem Rom Hack. Or the sequel to Stardew Valley. Or one of those weird Battle Royale games that I know nothing about.

Actually, if those games are about players beating each other until only one remains, then it's actually exactly like that.


So, pick teams, do your best, and, if you want or need more advice or guidance, go to the Super-League Discord.


New Team Form

Fill out Now

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

Given the low number of new teams, I have come to the realization that we must consider bringing back a drastic remedy:

Also the board of directors has determined that all draft picks and trades have a 2 drink minimum before they can be ratified

yes Llama and I agree to form this team, then reconvened after drinking and drank while reviewing feeders. So?

Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

if the player was active in 2016 you can just put them in the csv maker as 2016 then edit the number it makes to 2018


basically the csv maker doesn't know 2018 exists yet

With Smasher's approval, the ill-fated Des Moines Dervishes v2018 are going to ride again, with an actual attentive owner this time! I'll have a proper roster ready within 24 hours once I pore through the historical record.

Fear is the glue that holds society together. It's what makes people suppress their worst impulses. Fear is power.

And at the end of fear, oblivion.

But I made such a great feeder list up there! Why not give some of them a whirl? A...dervishy whirl, perhaps!

As I told Smasher a week ago, I love the Franks concept. I definitely had at least six dudes I could pulled from that. But I need to keep the faith.

so apparently the Boston Jager Bombers do need a third living member because alcohol doesn't count. If you want in and are willing to deal with a 2 drink minimum for all team decisions let me or shep know in the discord

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."
I'm closing this thread tomorrow, so get thing settled by then.
