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."


We're back! I know this expansion thread is a bit later than usual, but I was very busy filing an appeal to Satan to get out of running the Super-League.

Apparently, however, our previous deal of him letting the Cubs win the World Series once in exchange for me running the Super-League for all eternity is valid and binding, though.

For those unaware, the Super-League is...complicated. It's baseball, but also there are occasionally robots, and all manner of other things, all being run on a quite old and not particularly nimble video game engine. In many ways, it's a vert slow-moving disaster. And you can get in on the ground 32nd floor!


So, follow the instructions below, pick teams, do your best, and, if you want or need more advice or guidance, go to the Super-League Discord. GO THERE NOW!

I'm closing this thread in a week, so let's see if we can't get a couple more signups before then to both make me feel better, and to help kill off the dregs of the Sub-Par League.
