Alternation events within Blaseball have expanded significantly in scope since the idyllic heyday of the Discipline Era. In modern Blaseball, it seems barely a season goes by without one Team or another experiencing a raft of Alternations at once. While this may force an Alternated individual's loved ones (e.g. friends, family, and most importantly, Fans) to come to terms with feelings like "loss", "grief" and "contemplating the daunting nature of infinite realities", for 95%citation needed of events, there is no cause for alarm.
Extensive research has shown that during an Alternation event, realities "pair up" in a way that prioritises similarity between pairs, allowing for a new arrival with few - if any - differences between their former reality and their new home. As there are functionally-infinite realities, the vast majority (99%) of universes will find a highly similar match.
Any case where an Alternate has expressed distress at major discrepancies between their reality of origin and our reality - while unfortunate for the individual - are statistically insignificant on this wider scale. This can also be applied to any given reality where low-parsimony Alternation events are more common. Jetsam, Jetsam and Jetsam, in their 20REDACTED report suggest that such realities are somehow "slower" in the pairing process and more likely to trade with more divergent realities.
Regardless, as it is understood, for 99.9% of realities, Alternation is an unremarkable happening.Alternate/Entry-83.61

During Season 4's Alternate Reality decree, many pairs of players were drawn from the same alternate universe as each other. Commonly cited examples of these pairs include Edric Tosser and Justice Spoon of the Chicago Firefighters coming from the Deerfield Firestarters, Parker Meng and Kichiro Guerra of the San Francisco Lovers coming from the San Francisco "Tough" Lovers, and Igneus Delacruz and Eugenia Bickle of the Hellmouth Sunbeams coming from the Moab Starlights.
Previous theorists have suggested that specific teams are closely associated with specific "mirrorverse" counterparts, often involving teams from the same region but with reversed thematics. But why are they often from teams with opposing emotional resonance, and not merely opposing literal themes? In this essay I will

Submit New Entry
To submit a new observation cataloguing the effects of Alternation, use the Page Creation tool to the right. A new page should be in the format "Entry-[NUMBER]", where the Entry number needs to be a randomly generated 4 or 5 digit number with a period placed somewhere within. It cannot match any numbers currently used on this page. We've generated one for you to use, but feel free to use a different number. This will create a new subpage under Alternate/Rumor Registry, for inclusion in the main page. Make sure to put the full name of the Entry as Subheading 2, to ensure that it will appear correctly on both this and the main page.
