Definitely planning to update this page at some point, give me time. But for now, Goobie is referenced in several pages from our update to our new players: namely, Lucas Petty, Wanda Schenn, and Son Jensen.

Petty (talk page: https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Talk:Lucas_Petty):

  • Goobie may be added to their info sidebar as a potential romantic relationship, alongside Marquez Clark, Vito Kravitz, and possibly McBaseball Clembons (Petty has naturally evolved a polycule)
  • In the first season on the tacos section of petty's history: "Petty was not the only new player to join the Tacos during the Season 21 elections. They arrived to the team at almost exactly the same time as Goobie Ballson. Petty and Ballson were not previously acquainted, but as well as joining the Tacos simultaneously, they also shared a pregame ritual of “washing the blood off”. Petty and Ballson got along well and became friends almost immediately."
  • second paragraph of that: "Petty was pitching on Season 22 Day 9, and was actively on the mound when Ballson was incinerated. This was also the first instance of activation for the Tacos’ Heat Magnet, scoring them five runs which ultimately had no impact on the Tacos’ victory. Although Petty stayed composed and pitched a shutout that game, witnessing the incineration was an extremely negative experience for them. The loss of the person they arrived to this team with and befriended made their own status feel less secure, and resulted in more awkwardness between them and the rest of the Tacos for the next few weeks."
  • In the relationships section: "Due to arriving at the same time and having the same pregame ritual, Petty immediately got along with Goobie Ballson prior to Ballson’s incineration, starting up a casual friendship. While proponents of the “Ballson Is A Murderer Theory” have questioned whether their interactions were secretly or inadvertently fuelling a sinister plan, Petty has stated that they do not care either way and enjoyed their time together."

Wanda (talk page: https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Talk:Wanda_Schenn):

  • In the Chicago part of their history: "Schenn is also friends with Kennedy Rodgers and was close friends with Goobie Ballson (as most Firefighters were)."
  • As a potential reason for her trade to the Tacos (inside a choose function): "she decided to investigate Ballson’s death and see if they had left any “Goobie-lings” behind."
  • As another potential reason for that (inside a more limited choose function about those socks): "they were under the mistaken impression that Goobie Ballson had wound up with her Underhanded Arm Socks of Intelligence"

Son (talk page: https://www.blaseball.wiki/w/Talk:Son_Jensen)

  • Goobie is briefly mentioned in one of Son's IRMs, the one with the most lawyering focus: "Time and space law has been a particularly hot-button issue in Los Angeli ever since the Grand Unslam, making Jensen’s skills in high demand. Because of this, it took a long time for Jensen to be called into active play, since every time there was a good opportunity, he was in the middle of a trial, and Al Pastor refused to file the paperwork to get him out early. In Season 22, Jensen had an opening in his schedule when "Goobie Ballson v Goobie Ballson" was unceremoniously cancelled, and he was brought into active play shortly afterwards."
