The Book of Blaseball
The Book of Blaseball (also colloquially The Forbidden Book, The Rulebook, or The Book) is the Official Rulebook of Blaseball. The Game of ████████████ and ██████████.
It is presumed to be an object of unknown providence that is inseparably intertwined with the past, present, and future of the splort of Blaseball. The book currently contains six chapters, with each chapter containing a number of rules pertaining to the splort.

The immediate results of this decree were as follows:
- The Book Opens.
- Solar Eclipse.
- Umpires' eyes turn white.
- Star player Jaylen Hotdogfingers is incinerated.
- Hellmouth swallows the Moab Desert.

Notable revelations
- Section 5g which previously read "Splortsmanship, Splortsmanship, ██████" and now reads Splortsmanship, Splortsmanship, is DEAD."
- The 20 signatories at the bottom were previously entirely redacted. Now the first letters "A," "N," and "M" have appeared for three of the redacted names/titles.
