This page describes events that are ongoing, and is still being updated. As such, some information may be missing.

This page is about the first season of the Coronation Era. For other uses, see Season 1 (disambiguation).

Season 1 began on January 09, 2023. The regular season concluded on January 13, 2023, followed by the postseason and Internet Series on January 14, 2023. The Season 1 Election took place on January 15, 2023.

Season 1 concluded with the Charleston Shoe Thieves beating the Mexico City Wild Wings 3 games to 1 to win the first Internet Series championship title of the new era.

Notable Events

Notable events are ongoing.

Static Charges

As the Team Pages fully opened, it was noticed that there were some discrepancies between the listed Fall Ball falls and the teams themselves. NaN and Sixpack Dogwalker, the original two Receivers, were absent; in their place was Nathaniel Wilds and Dimi Wobbler, respectively. Both of these replacements are also now Receivers, and were previously Static Charges from the Short Circuits. Whilst not explicitly stated, both teams have the Entangled Modification (which they had received at the conclusion of Season β24), and therefore can be presumed to have been Alternated on their return from the Black Hole, revealing an as-yet-unseen (though confirmed by The Game Band in an episode of Inside A Blaseball) interaction between the two Modifications. Notably, NaN had not had the Receiver modification since Season β15, when it had been replaced with the Echo modification. Players who are Echoes do not Static when alternated, as Wyatt Mason X, an Echo, was Alternated in the Season β21 election with no other result.

Bonus Burps

Every ILB team started with 14 players - 10 of whom had fallen during Fall Ball, the other 4 seemingly randomly generated before games began. However, as games progressed, it appeared that the new weather Horizon, which every game this season was played under, had the effect of players falling and landing somewhere on the field during games. The fallen players do not appear on team rosters, and their location is unknown. An (incomplete) list of players that fell and which team's game they fell during can be seen below.

Election Secretion

At the beginning of the season, no decrees or blessings were available. However, over the course of the season, two different kinds of EMERGENCY ALERTS revealed the ballot.

The addition of Decrees was heralded by the broadcast:

[BURP]
EMERGENCY ALERT
BELCH DETECTED
BALLOT CONTESTED
DECREE SECRETED

These secretions occurred before Day 6, Day 28, and Day 49, and added the NEW Redistribute Wealth, NEW Relegation, and NEW Open the Forbidden Book respectively.

The addition of Blessings was heralded by the broadcast:

[BURP]
EMERGENCY ALERT
BELCH DETECTED
BALLOT CONTESTED
BLESSINGS SECRETED

These secretions occurred before Day 25, Day 46, and Day 67. The first one added Strong Start, Shadow Play, and Wind Spirits; the second one added Yeet and Strike Zero; and the third added Shore Up and Guess Whose Thwack.

Other Belches

Shortly before Day 3 started, an Alert was broadcast, which re-allowed the ability to see star counts on individual stats.

[BURP]
BELCH DETECTED
STARS CHARTER

Another Alert was broadcast before Day 44 that gave the ability to see players' attributes, which had changed to a different system between the eras.

[BURP]
EMERGENCY ALERT
BELCH DETECTED
ATTRIBUTION ERROR
RECOMMEND DEEP ANALYSIS

Universal Bets and Influence

Starting with Day 24, and repeating each real-world 24 hours, a new boon was granted. This boon, referred to as "Universal Bets and Influence", granted players 100 Chips and 20 Votes. Coinciding with this came a Message from the Monitor:

universal bets and influence
nice
just got my daily chips and votes
time to bet big
Avatar monitor.png @monitor

Please Help.

Right before the Postseason began, an Emergency Alert was broadcast. Before long, however, the message itself was clearly being actively edited. Whilst only edited one letter at a time, the messages the alert ended up at are as follows:

The letter P, in bold italics, against a starry background.
P.

PLEASE WAIT
PLEASE WAIT...........
P
PLEASE HELP.
PLEASE HELP...........
PLEASE.
PLEASE WAIT?
PLEASE WAIT!?!?!
PLEASE WAIT.....

The message then continued to vary in line breaks and periods, eventually making the message vertical and adding select periods to letters, culminating at:

P....
L....
E.......
A..........
S....
E..
W....
A.......
I.....
T......

The periods and letters themselves were then deleted, and when all were deleted, the usual PLEASE WAIT... was typed out. Shortly thereafer, the message changed to PLAY BALL!, and the Postseason began.

Notable Election Results

During the Election the Hades Tigers managed to win the "Yeet" Blessing which was to send their worst player to the Black Hole, which was Eddie Tumblehome, and for them to recieve a random player in return. However the results of the election showed that the player they were to recieve was Frazier Tosser who had already fallen onto the field, during a game between the Philly Pies and Mexico City Wild Wings. Due to this, this managed to result in the Philly Pies somehow recieved Tumblehome on their lineup, and the Hades Tigers appearing to gain no player on their team.

Two players who were previously were incinerated and listed as deceased, Shaquille Torres and Derrick Krueger returned from the Black Hole with the Modification Entrenched as a result of the Election. The modification had no description.

Player Tiera Wigdoubt from the Shadows of prehistory team Laredo Excavators, was also taken from the Black Hole to join the Baltimore Crabs. Although their team was listed as deceased and they were in the Hall of Flame, they themselves were not. As a result of returning they gained the Modification In The Field, which had no description.

Ongoing Decrees

As of the end of Season β24, all Ongoing Decrees had been Nullified, and are no longer in play.
