The Wild High Memorial Belt is a competition created by Fans of Wild High Teams starting in Season 18. It has no bearing on Blaseball itself.

Rules

Expansion Era

The "Belt" starts the Season in possession of the Wild High Team who last had it in the previous Season. If that Team has a Blaseball Series against a another team in the Wild High Division, they must then defend the Belt on the third game of the Series. If the defending Team lose the Game, the Belt is then transferred to the opposing Team. The opposing Team must themselves defend the Belt from Wild High Teams — including the Team they have taken the Belt from — when they have Games against them. If they fail to defend the Belt, it is transferred again. The Belt continues to be passed between Wild High Teams until the end of the Regular Season, and does not carry into the Postseason. Because the competition relies on Games played on Blaseball.com, it can only be played during an active Season.

Short Circuits

Starting in Gamma 4, the format of the Belt was changed. Because Wild High had dissolved in Season 24, the Memorial Belt was now open to all former Wild High Teams, including new additions to the competition in the New York Millennials, the Baltimore Crabs, and the San Francisco Lovers. Whereas in The Expansion Era there was only one Belt, during Gamma 4 every participating Team started the Season in the possession of their own Belt. As a result, Teams had the possibility to be both Defenders and opponents during a given game. Futhermore, Teams could amass multiple Belts, and if a Team defeated another participant in posession of multiple Belts, all of these belts would be transferred. This eventually lead to the majority of Belts being possessed by an increasingly smaller number of participating of Teams.

History

The Tamara Crankit Aurora Blortles Bauer Zimmerman Memorial Championship Belt was the inaugural round of the Wild High Memorial Belt.

Season 23

The Nobody Died Yet But Give It Time Memorial Championship Belt was passed around Wild High in Season 23.

Season 24

The Collins Melon Memorial, Niq Nyong'o Unmemorial Championship Belt was passed around Wild High in Season 24. As opposed to previous Memorial Belts, which were named after incinerated Players, this Belt was named after the recently Vaulted Collins Melon and the recently revived Niq Nyong'o. Despite Nicholas Mora being Vaulted and Gerund Pantheocide being revived as well, their names were not included on the Memorial/Unmemorial Championship Belt. Despite various Teams being incinerated or nullified in Season 24, this surprisingly had no effect on the Collins Melon Memorial, Niq Nyong'o Unmemorial Championship Belt.

Alongside the teams that played in Wild High in the Expansion Era, the New York Millennials, the Baltimore Crabs, and the San Francisco Lovers were additionally allowed to participate in passing around the Belt. The Belt is named after each player that has been incinerated on a former Wild High team, regardless of if the Team was in Wild High at the time of incineration. Additionally, the name of the Belt does not account for necromancy.
