Some Blaseball fans (Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ) crunched the numbers and came up with enough colors for each team (and 12 more in case teams get added!) that all meet a 3:1 ratio against Discord's light and dark backgrounds. Then they published a whitepaper about it. sibr.dev/papers/files/Iโฆ
.Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ is a fantastic example of how amazing fandoms can be, and how amazing games can become when they listen to those fandoms. Also good examples of feral data scientists harnessed for good, not evil.
Blaseball hit at such a perfect time, really meant a lot to me. It was a lot of fun working the first few seasons with Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ on tooling for recording and parsing through the API and game feeds (and then comitting data crimes with that knowledge). RIV, Blaseball.
With the end of blaseball, I am reflecting on what was by far one of my favorite side projects ever: flactorio. Made with love for a Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ hackathon.
Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ I have to say, SIBR made blaseball what it was to such a large extent for me. Thank you all do much for everything you've done, it made this cultural phenomenon something truly special!
Thanks to this I found Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ & met some really cool people & made a cool Blaseball app. And because of _them_ I found the garages (the band) who rekindled my love of making music. Thanks for making this weird thing that put so much creativity into the world in such a short time.
I spent most of my time with it working spreadsheets and theory-crafting election strategies. I wrote fanfic for it. I helped start a blog for Society for Internet Blaseball Research ๐ฎ. It was engrossing in a way I never had before.
we ran the numbers and sadly this was the most optimal move that The Game Band could have made for salmon preservation efforts
