decided to join the discord after all since it'll be nice to have somewhere that's just for me, no artemis-shaped strings attached. but i also feel like i just walked onto an ancient battlefield with a bunch of swords stuck into the earth and shit.

@ArtemisRubey you're not, entirely wrong,
apollo, blaseball
@ArtemisRubey my best advice is avoid #fall-ball-party and #slower-blaseball-chat (the latter is usually a watchparty channel) because they are incessantly loud and full of teenagers, and just go straight on to your team's channels. make sure to join your team's thread in #fanlore , look at pretty art in fanwork, you'll have a perfectly nice time

@callieroxy not sure i'll join fanlore etc. since i'm not about that life, mostly here so i know what the team strategy is gonna be. still, tips are appreciated.

@ArtemisRubey thats fair!

@ArtemisRubey im feeling lucky that my team got dropped a player who's seen play before (she's. generously, statistically mid. but is a lesbian pirate named Charlatan so that's lovely), tigers must be climbing the walls in there lol

@ArtemisRubey Tbh, this is how it normally happens; it's just a bunch of people comping at the bit who haven't gotten to do this in A Year
Incidentally if you want any Tiger Histroy i'm glad to tell you about, say, the time that you and the sunbeams made out behind a dennys for 12 hours straight while the rest of the league watched or such.

@junebug might take you up on that sometime. also, looks like you've manifested in blaseball's collective consciousness as the cms' new player. (credit to caelum on the discord.)

@ArtemisRubey THE CMS?
apollo, blaseball
@junebug core mechanics, yeah. name of djuna scoresburg.
apollo, blaseball
@ArtemisRubey Ah! Yeah, I think she's new. Exciting. Love a new player.
Love inky more though.

@junebug @ArtemisRubey the sunbeams and the tigers having raw gay sex was my favorite ever thing to happen in blaseball only spoiled by all the annoying people on either side who tried to insist it was platonic because of their trauma or whatever the fuck

@ArtemisRubey @abraxas I'll dm you, I love talking about this splort.
blaseball 🐅
@junebug @ArtemisRubey @abraxas hello? I deleted my blaseball acct but may try to get back into the splort. Tell me about the gay tiger sex
blaseball 🐅
@KC @ArtemisRubey @abraxas Do not worry, it's not something you would care about haha
blaseball 🐅
@junebug @KC @ArtemisRubey the tigers and the sunbeams are having raw gay sex all the time

@junebug @ArtemisRubey @abraxas okay ❤️ but also excuse you I care very much about gay tiger sex

tigers are friendly so far. checked out the lore thread and immediately backed out. do not understand the mindset of conjuring entire stories and loresets for the players before they've played a single game. i understand the community's enthusiasm but from where i sat most of the interesting stories come from extrapolating what each player is like from watching them play.
