Season 1 Voting Plan
Ae'timezone stripes, today we bring you the preliminary voting sheet for this inaugural season of new blaseball. The results of the poll will remain open on discord until the Internet League Championship ends, but barring anything crazy (which could still happen), these should be the targets we'll be going for.
The main information is underneath the cut, but for a more in-depth read with percentage allocation you can check our voting spreadsheet here. And remember to log your votes, whether you are following the plan or not, with this form!
For this season, the team has decided to exclusively focus on Blessings, which means Decrees are up to each stripes' personal preference, if any.
As for our Blessings, they are as follows:
PRIMARY GOAL
NEW Batting Boost
Your Team's Batting is boosted by 1 Star.
We had the second fewest runs in the entire league for Season 1, so we could definitely use the batting improvement. We have middling-to-decent pitching and the best defense in the league, but we still need to score runs to win.
SECONDARY GOALS
Guess Whose Thwack
Boost your Lineup's Thwack by 1 Star.
NEW Team Boost
Your Team is boosted Overall by 1/2 a Star.
NEW Steal Best Batter
Steal the best Batter from the Black Hole for your Team.
NEW Max Out Batter
Max out a random Batter on your Team's Zone.
All of these improve our bats one way or another, which is what we want to focus on. These are ordered from most to least relevant, but they should all be helpful for our team.
AVOID
Strike Zero
A Division Rival will receive the worst Overall Player from the Black Hole.
YEET
Send your Team's worst Player into the Black Hole and receive a random Player back.
These are not actively beneficial to us as a team, and could even hurt us in the case of Yeet.
As always, vote with your heart, and don't forget to track your submissions here.
Many stripes!

imo one of supernatural's greatest weaknesses is what i'm going to call its locational homogeneity. like. obviously this is largely a side effect of filming a show set all over the united states in the same small area of canada for 15 years but there's just a certain sameness to every location and every episode that's uncanny at best and breaks immersion at worst. they should have gone all in on southern gothic horror and spooky old northeastern coastal towns and rural midwestern isolation and instead it's just episode after episode of identical suburbs with arbitrary location titles slapped over them. the seasons never change. the weather is always mild, never with extreme enough temperature or precipitation to require a change from the standard jacket-over-flannel-over-tee costuming even when we see snow on the ground. this episode is set in the summer in idaho. no, wait, it's set in the winter in kentucky. this episode is set in the summerfallwinterspring in kansachusettohiowa. sam and dean travel all over the country and yet stay completely still. supernatural shows us a massive world and it does not turn and absolutely no one lives in it.
