I'm not sure if I should or shouldn't be surprised there's an SA thread for this.
Laughed pretty hard at the Oceanics not even qualifying. OOOOOOO, losers.

When my wife and I started watching she picked the Oceanics to be her favorite team.

She's now in the process of choosing a new favorite team.

Bumpin' for the sprint just finishing. O'rangers are NOT starting this year's league strong, but any event where they beat the Savage Speeders is a good one, I guess.

If you're looking for more marble fun, check out this guy, he does virtual marble competitions in a physics engine. Leads to some interesting competitions. No narration, sadly.

Well, that was a way to end the Marble League. 11 teams up for the podium, and all of them came close at one point. I like these mixed-terrain races; seems to be more action and passing.

If anybody else backed the marble league game on indiegogo, they're starting to email out beta codes. Game is barebones at the moment, all the teams exist and a good number of events are available, but it's a pretty accurate representation all things considered. Really looking forward to future developments if the current incarnation is any indication of the quality.

i have to admit that i find it harder to follow the races vs the events, feels like a lot of the racing gets left by the wayside to focus on a couple marbles at a time

1) gently caress the cheating oranges.
2) That was a terribly filmed/edited race. They kept cutting away from the action from 2-6, missing overtaking and collisions, to randomly show the back of the pack and/or some orange bastard in the lead.

I just love watching two separate races on the same track: The top two marbles and then the entire rest of the field (not spoiler texting since it happens immediately after the starting gun)

But I will spoiler this: OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Pinkies need to just retire from Marbula and the Marble League and focus on being a ManiaX team. What a goddamn embarrassment. Nice starting position and fastest lap, there, losers. For all the good it did you.

I'm sorry. I try to be respectful to all the marbles, but they're just wasting everyone's time here, including their own. They could be home right now, training for something they're actually good at.

It's been a few years since I've gone deep into marble racing. What's team Momo up to these days? Still kicking o'ranger rear end?

Also, gently caress those limer wankers. Never liked them or their attitude on the track.

I think Prim is nursing an injury. In one of the early races he hit the attenuator pretty hard and not only did it sap his momentum for that race but he's consistently ran out of gas after just a few laps in every race since then.

As a fellow Momo fan, you need to watch the race from Sunday.

O'Rangers have this poo poo in the bag.

As long as traditionally disappointing Clemintin doesn't poo poo the bed as usual.

And as long as traditionally good RedEye does poo poo the bed.

But if those two unlikely events both happen, hey, it's number 1 for the O-boys!

It's seriously loving awesome that I learned about this ~2 years ago, randomly picked a color marble that I liked, stuck with it, and was rewarded by getting to watch them win this major tournament. It really is almost as if the O'Rangers are like .0001 grams heavier or something; they just do good, consistently.

Others may have seen this as a quarantine fad but I literally have a Marbula One hat that I like to wear while on walks. I'm just waiting, WAITING for someone to ask me about it. I'm gonna ruin their day
