Mystery Blessings

After Season 1 blessings were awarded, the umpire ump_chaff announced two more blessings that "happened at the same time as the regular election but were not officially part of said election." The umpire then stated, "I've added these transactions to the site as public knowledge."

During the elections, after blessings were processed, Nicholas Mora and Yazmin Mason swapped teams, with no indication as to why. This may have been a third mystery blessing that was never recorded.[2]

During the fourth Inside A Blaseball stream, the developers revealed that these mystery blessings were most likely due to a bug that caused the election to run multiple times.[3] According to the developers, this bug likely also overwrote a version of the election where the Yellowstone Magic won several blessings - the team would go on to not win a single blessing until Season β8.
