    Pitching Machine has developed a taste for human blood. Petrifying!

    I've extremely concerned that the Tacos pitching strike may have led to Sklynet.

    Also, if anyone is coming into blaseball late and would like extremely well-written summaries of each season that will help orient you to the big picture while also catching some of the fun sub-stories, you should check out Cat Manning's substack/. They do a great job of condensing the biggest developments each week and can serve as a good catchup.

    So, what happens when the Pitching Machine gets shelled?

    I’ve definitely been down on the tacos and blaseball the last couple seasons but the snackrifice worked out better than I could have hoped. May the Machine pitch eternal, shiny and chrome.

    Thanks to Targeted Shame, saw a game where the final score was -1 to 0.

    Jaylen Hotdogfingers has hit Jessica Telephone with a pitch.

    Jessica Telephone is flickering.

    Current FK scuttlebutt about this is
    Flickering is likely a Feedback chance increase.

    In the current beanball cycle, the next team the Pies face with Feedback is the Shoe Thieves on Day 36. Only day it's projected to happen, so keep a close eye on that game.

    They also finally put in sliders so you can buy votes/tribute peanuts in bulk, which will be a big relief to my clicking finger.

    Pitching Machine continues to feed and I’m told is now the 5th best pitcher in the league. I think we’ve grown too attached and if the Tacos lose it there might be a revolt.

    You know, more than the degree we’re revolting already.

    which team is the dirtbag team? all my other favorite pro sports teams are generally dirtbag teams so i wanna run with the theme.

    Millennials, Flowers or Spies, I would bet.

    I'm am happy the tigers are doing well this season

    They are trying their best to keep up with the garages.

    Never look back!

    Finding it kinda funny one of our hitters siphoned batting skill from Pitching Machine

    DRINK THE BLOOD OF THE PITCHING MACHINE

  • BloodsheedBloodsheed Registered User regular
    Millennials, Flowers or Spies, I would bet.

    The Flowers fandom (at least the Discord) is kinda going for an "Anti-Boston-Sports-Fan" vibe. Very friendly, very welcoming, thanking our opponents for helping us grow and bloom, etc.

    It is... sometimes difficult (Give Beck Back).

    The Seattle Garages literally wrote a song about how much they hate their own pitcher

    If I weren't a Jazz Hands man, I'd be Garages all the way

    I was busy at work... what happened at the end of the normal season?

    So it seems like everyone in the top 5 of the idol board got shelled again except Peanutiel because peanuts don’t get shelled and surprisingly, Jaylen Hotdogfingers. Also note NaN and Sixpack Dogwalker in two of the feedback spots in the leaderboard.

    I also wasn’t there for it but I found this recap:


    The pregame rituals for NaN and Dogwalker updated in real time with those three messages and now they both have the receiver status.

    Jaylen got something far more terrifying

    She's flickering :(

  • seasleepyseasleepy Registered User regular
    Jaylen wasn't top 5 when the Peanut showed up, she was in the 6 slot -- but even though she was in a Mic slot, she didn't get the messages from Wyatt though in her pregame ritual, she still just had "checking her pulse" (which, understandable). I think the other player above the line at the time was Trololol, who was already shelled, so nothing happened there.

    Oh did she dip below? I dunno when she became flickering then

    Either way, I'm not happy about it

  • shalmeloshalmelo sees no evil Registered User regular
    It was bound to happen eventually. Our poor double-bonus child didn't make it down from the Idol tree in time. York Silk is stuck in a peanut shell, and the Fridays are going to speedrun to party time next season without him. Which is fine, honestly, because our roster desperately needs it.

    Would have been nice to see the Tigers take it there at the end though, just to see what that triggers.

    I was hoping for my tigers to win. It would have been the third championship for them right?

    Blaseball could have ascended!
